Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc.—Distribution Declaration and Portfolio Statistics

2009-10-12 17:01 ET - News Release


NEW YORK -- (Business Wire)

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 that the Fund’s Board of Directors declared a regular monthly distribution of $0.0680 per share. The distribution is payable on October 30, 2009 to shareholders of record as of October 22, 2009. The ex-distribution date is October 20, 2009.

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 7% 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 as in effect from May 2005 through July 2009, the annualized rate was 8%.) Based on information available at this time, the Fund estimates that portions of the current regular monthly distribution may be comprised of net investment income and capital gain distributions. Further information regarding the estimated sources of the current regular monthly distribution will be provided around month-end; however, information provided will be an estimate and subject to change based on the Fund’s investment experience during the remainder of its fiscal year.

The remainder is available to Stockwatch subscribers.
