Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) (NYSE:SGL), a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company seeking a high level of current income as a primary objective and capital appreciation as a secondary objective through investments in US and foreign debt securities, today announced its distribution characteristics for the month of March 2015.
The following notice was sent to shareholders today:
Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc. c/o UBS Global Asset Management (Americas) Inc. 1285 Avenue of the Americas New York, NY 10019
DISTRIBUTION NOTICE March 2015
The purpose of this document is to provide you with information that is required to be sent to you as well as additional information that may be of interest to at least some investors.
On March 9, 2015, the Fund’s Board of Directors declared a regular monthly distribution of $0.0411 per share. The distribution is payable on March 31, 2015 to shareholders of record as of March 19, 2015. The ex-distribution date was March 17, 2015.
The Fund adopted a managed distribution policy (“Policy”) in May 1998. Pursuant to the Policy as currently in effect, the Fund makes regular monthly distributions at an annualized rate equal to 5% of the Fund’s net asset value, determined as of the last day on which the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading during the first week of that month. (Pursuant to the Policy with respect to distributions paid from June 2011 through the monthly distribution for May 2014, the annualized rate had been 6%, which, consistent with the policy, in any given month may have been comprised of a combination of net investment income, capital gains, and/or a return of capital.) The Fund’s Board receives recommendations from UBS Global Asset Management (Americas) Inc., the Fund’s investment advisor, periodically and no less frequently than annually will reassess the annualized percentage of net assets at which the Fund’s monthly distributions will be made. The Fund’s Board may change or terminate the managed distribution policy at any time without prior notice to Fund shareholders; any such change or termination may have an adverse effect on the market price for the Fund’s shares.
To the extent that the Fund’s taxable income in any fiscal year exceeds the aggregate amount distributed based on a fixed percentage of its net asset value, the Fund would make an additional distribution in the amount of that excess near the end of the fiscal year. To the extent that the aggregate amount distributed by the Fund based on a fixed percentage of its net asset value exceeds its current and accumulated earnings and profits, the amount of that excess would constitute a return of capital or net realized capital gains for tax purposes. A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the money that shareholders invested in the Fund is deemed to be paid back to shareholders. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect the Fund’s investment performance and should not be confused with “yield” or “income.”
During the current fiscal year which ends on November 30, 2015, the Fund has made four (4) regular monthly distributions from December 1, 2014 to March 31, 2015, which in aggregate equal $0.1665 per share. The sources of the regular distribution paid during the month and current fiscal year are estimated as follows:
Estimated source of regular monthly distributions Estimated allocationsNet realized short-termcapital gains
Net realized long-termcapital gains

The Fund periodically issues notices to shareholders and press releases estimating the source characteristics of its monthly distributions. The amounts and sources reported in these materials are only estimates and are not being provided for tax reporting purposes. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for accounting and tax reporting purposes will depend upon the Fund’s investment experience during its entire fiscal year and may be subject to retroactive changes based on tax regulations. The Fund sends shareholders a Form 1099-DIV (or a financial intermediary should provide a shareholder with similar information) for the calendar year that will tell shareholders how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes.
If you chose to receive your distributions in cash, a check should have been sent to you or a credit should have been made on your financial intermediary or Fund account statement. If you chose to reinvest your distributions, that statement (or a subsequent one) should indicate the additional shares purchased for your account in full and fractional shares of the Fund's common stock.
You should not draw any conclusions about the Fund’s investment performance from the amount of the monthly distribution or from the terms of the Fund’s managed distribution policy.

Please find below additional information regarding the Fund’s performance. Please note that this information is primarily based on the Fund’s net asset value based performance, not its market price based performance. Market price based performance for various periods is included in the Fund’s most recent report to shareholders and is different.

Please note that the table below reflects the characterization of distributions on an accounting basis for a Fund's fiscal year-end period, which may or may not match the amounts reported to a shareholder on a tax basis for a calendar year in a tax Form 1099 to shareholders given (1) the differences between the periods measured and (2) accounting/tax reporting differences. (More information regarding accounting/tax reporting differences may be found in the notes to the financial statements included in the Fund's shareholder reports.)
