ANNUAL REPORT

 

May 7, 2024

This report provides management’s discussion of fund performance for AllianceBernstein Global High Income Fund, Inc. for the annual reporting period ended March 31, 2024. The Fund is a closed-end fund and its shares of common stock trade on the New York Stock Exchange.

The Fund seeks high current income and, secondarily, capital appreciation.

RETURNS AS OF MARCH 31, 2024 (unaudited)

 

     6 Months      12 Months  
ALLIANCEBERNSTEIN GLOBAL HIGH INCOME FUND (NAV)      10.89%        15.06%  

Primary Benchmark:

Bloomberg Global High Yield Index (USD hedged)

     10.57%        13.36%  
Blended Benchmark:
33% JPM GBI-EM / 33% JPM EMBI Global/
33% Bloomberg US Corporate HY 2% Issuer Capped Index
     8.27%        7.90%  

The Fund’s market price per share on March 31, 2024, was $10.62. The Fund’s NAV per share on March 31, 2024, was $11.21. For additional financial highlights, please see pages 105-106.

Please keep in mind that high, double-digit returns are highly unusual and cannot be sustained. Investors should also be aware that these returns were primarily achieved during favorable market conditions.

INVESTMENT RESULTS

The table above shows the Fund’s performance compared with its primary benchmark, the Bloomberg Global High Yield Index (USD hedged), as well as its blended benchmark for the six- and 12-month periods ended March 31, 2024. The blended benchmark is composed of equal weightings of the JPMorgan Government Bond Index-Emerging Markets (“JPM GBI-EM”) (local currency-denominated), the JPMorgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Global (“JPM EMBI Global”) and the Bloomberg US Corporate High Yield (“HY”) 2% Issuer Capped Index.

During both periods, the Fund outperformed its primary benchmark and the blended benchmark. Over the 12-month period, security selection was the largest contributor to relative performance, from security selection in US investment-grade and high-yield corporate bonds, eurozone high-yield corporates and emerging-market (“EM”) sovereign and corporate bonds. Yield-curve positioning also contributed, as an overweight to the six-month part of the yield curve in the US and an underweight to the six-month part of the eurozone yield-curve contributed more to performance than losses from overweights to the two- to 10-year parts of the US yield-curve. At the country level, an underweight to the eurozone contributed. From a currency perspective, a short in the euro also added to performance. Sector

allocation detracted, mostly from an underweight to EM sovereign bonds, and off-benchmark exposure to US investment-grade corporates, US Treasuries and commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) that were partially offset by gains from off-benchmark exposure to collateralized loan obligations and an underweight to emerging-market corporate bonds.

During the six-month period, security selection was the greatest contributor, as selections among US investment-grade and high-yield corporate bonds, eurozone high-yield corporates and emerging-market sovereign bonds contributed. An underweight to the eurozone and an overweight to the US contributed from a country allocation perspective. Yield-curve positioning also added to performance, mainly from an overweight to the six-month part of the US curve and an underweight to the six-month part of the eurozone curve that was partially offset by losses from overweights to the two- and five-year parts of the US yield-curve and underweights to the 20- and 30-year parts of the US yield-curve. Sector allocation detracted, mostly from an underweight to emerging-market sovereign bonds and off-benchmark exposure to US investment-grade corporates, US Treasuries, bank loans, agency risk-sharing transactions and CMBS that were partially offset by a gain from an overweight to US high-yield corporate bonds. Currency decisions also detracted, because of a short position in the euro.

During both periods, the Fund used interest rate swaps and futures to manage and hedge duration risk and/or to take active yield-curve positioning. Currency forwards were used to hedge foreign currency exposure and to take active currency risk. Credit default swaps were also utilized to effectively gain exposure to specific sectors. Total return swaps were used to create synthetic high-yield exposure in the Fund, while written options and purchased options were used to put spread for downside protection.

During both the six-month and 12-month period, the utilization of leverage on behalf of the Fund contributed positively to performance.

MARKET REVIEW AND INVESTMENT STRATEGY

Over the 12-month period ended March 31, 2024, fixed-income government bond market yields were extremely volatile in all major developed markets, and developed-market government bond returns started to diverge based on individual country rates of growth, inflation expectations and central bank decisions. Most central banks raised interest rates substantially to combat inflation, then paused further interest-rate hikes later in the period and are on the cusp of beginning monetary easing. Government bond returns in aggregate were positive, with the highest return in Switzerland, while US Treasury returns were only slightly positive. Overall, developed-market investment-grade corporate bonds solidly outperformed government bonds, including in the US and eurozone. High-yield corporate bonds advanced and significantly outperformed government bonds—especially in the eurozone and US. Emerging-market hard-currency

ALLIANCEBERNSTEIN GLOBAL HIGH INCOME FUND | 3


sovereign bonds outperformed developed-market treasuries by a wide margin. Emerging-market hard-currency corporate bonds had strong relative positive returns and outperformed developed-market corporates by credit quality. Among sovereigns and corporates, emerging-market high yield outperformed investment grade by a material margin during the period. Local-currency sovereign bonds exceeded developed-market treasuries yet trailed other risk sectors as the US dollar gained on most currencies during the period.

The Fund’s Investment Management Team (the “Team”) seeks to generate high current income and, secondarily, capital appreciation. The Fund is a globally diversified portfolio that takes full advantage of the Team’s best research ideas by pursuing high-income opportunities across all fixed-income sectors. The Fund invests primarily (and without limit) in corporate debt securities from US and non-US issuers, as well as government bonds from both developing and developed countries, including the US. Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests substantially in lower-rated bonds, but may also invest in investment-grade and unrated debt securities.

INVESTMENT POLICIES

The Fund invests without limit in securities denominated in non-US currencies as well as those denominated in the US dollar. The Fund may also invest, without limit, in sovereign debt securities issued by emerging and developed nations and in debt securities of US and non-US corporate issuers. For more information regarding the Fund’s risks, please see “Disclosures and Risks” on pages 5-8 and “Note E—Risks Involved in Investing in the Fund” of the Notes to Financial Statements on pages 100-103.

Benchmark Disclosure

All indices are unmanaged and do not reflect fees and expenses associated with the active management of a fund portfolio. The Bloomberg Global High Yield Index (USD hedged) represents non-investment grade fixed-income securities of companies in the US, and developed and emerging markets, hedged to the US dollar. The JPM® GBI-EM represents the performance of local currency government bonds issued by emerging markets. The JPM EMBI Global (market-capitalization weighted) represents the performance of US dollar-denominated Brady bonds, Eurobonds and trade loans issued by sovereign and quasi-sovereign entities. The Bloomberg US Corporate HY 2% Issuer Capped Index is the 2% Issuer Capped component of the US Corporate High Yield Index, which represents the performance of fixed-income securities having a maximum quality rating of Ba1, a minimum amount outstanding of $150 million and at least one year to maturity. An investor cannot invest directly in an index, and its results are not indicative of the performance of any specific investment, including the Fund.

A Word About Risk

Market Risk: The market value of a security may move up or down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. These fluctuations may cause a security to be worth less than the price originally paid for it, or less than it was worth at an earlier time. Market risk may affect a single issuer, industry, sector of the economy or the market as a whole. Global economies and financial markets are increasingly interconnected, which increases the probabilities that conditions in one country or region might adversely impact issuers in a different country or region. Conditions affecting the general economy, including political, social, or economic instability at the local, regional, or global level may also affect the market value of a security. Health crises, such as pandemic and epidemic diseases, as well as other incidents that interrupt the expected course of events, such as natural disasters, including fires, earthquakes and flooding, war or civil disturbance, acts of terrorism, power outages and other unforeseeable and external events, and the public response to or fear of such diseases or events, have had, and may in the future have, an adverse effect on the

 

abfunds.com  

ALLIANCEBERNSTEIN GLOBAL HIGH INCOME FUND | 5


 

DISCLOSURES AND RISKS (continued)

 

Fund’s investments and net asset value and can lead to increased market volatility. For example, the diseases or events themselves or any preventative or protective actions that governments may take in respect of such diseases or events may result in periods of business disruption, inability to obtain raw materials, supplies and component parts, and reduced or disrupted operations for the Fund’s portfolio companies. The occurrence and pendency of such diseases or events could adversely affect the economies and financial markets either in specific countries or worldwide.

Interest-Rate Risk: Changes in interest rates will affect the value of investments in fixed-income securities. When interest rates rise, the value of existing investments in fixed-income securities tends to fall and this decrease in value may not be offset by higher income from new investments. Interest-rate risk is generally greater for fixed-income securities with longer maturities or durations. The Fund may be subject to a greater risk of rising interest rates than would normally be the case due to the recent end of a period of historically low rates and the effect of potential central bank monetary policy, and government fiscal policy, initiatives and resulting market reactions to those initiatives.

Credit Risk: An issuer or guarantor of a fixed-income security, or the counterparty to a derivatives or other contract, may be unable or unwilling to make timely payments of interest or principal, or to otherwise honor its obligations. The issuer or guarantor may default, causing a loss of the full principal amount of a security and accrued interest. The degree of risk for a particular security may be reflected in its credit rating. There is the possibility that the credit rating of a fixed-income security may be downgraded after purchase, which may adversely affect the value of the security.

Below Investment-Grade Securities Risk: Investments in fixed-income securities with lower ratings (commonly known as “junk bonds”) are subject to a higher probability that an issuer will default or fail to meet its payment obligations. These securities may be subject to greater price volatility due to such factors as specific corporate developments and negative perceptions of the junk bond market generally and may be more difficult to trade than other types of securities.

Duration Risk: Duration is a measure that relates the expected price volatility of a fixed-income security to changes in interest rates. The duration of a fixed-income security may be shorter than or equal to full maturity of a fixed-income security. Fixed-income securities with longer durations have more risk and will decrease in price as interest rates rise.

DISCLOSURES AND RISKS (continued)

 

Inflation Risk: This is the risk that the value of assets or income from investments will be less in the future as inflation decreases the value of money. As inflation increases, the value of the Fund’s assets can decline as can the value of the Fund’s distributions. This risk is significantly greater for fixed-income securities with longer maturities.

Foreign (Non-US) Risk: Investments in securities of non-US issuers may involve more risk than those of US issuers. These securities may fluctuate more widely in price and may be more difficult to trade due to adverse market, economic, political, regulatory or other factors.

Emerging-Market Risk: Investments in emerging-market countries may have more risk because the markets are less developed and less liquid and are subject to increased economic, political, regulatory or other uncertainties.

Currency Risk: Fluctuations in currency exchange rates may negatively affect the value of the Fund’s investments or reduce its returns.

Leverage Risk: As a result of the Fund’s use of leveraging techniques, its NAV may be more volatile because leverage tends to exaggerate the effect of changes in interest rates and any increase or decrease in the value of the Fund’s investments.

Derivatives Risk: Investments in derivatives may be difficult to price or unwind and leveraged so that small changes may produce disproportionate losses for the Fund. A short position in a derivative instrument involves the risk of a theoretically unlimited increase in the value of the underlying asset, which could cause the Fund to suffer a potentially unlimited loss. Derivatives, especially over-the-counter derivatives, are also subject to counterparty risk, which is the risk that the counterparty (the party on the other side of the transaction) on a derivative transaction will be unable or unwilling to honor its contractual obligations to the Fund.

Illiquid Investments Risk: Illiquid investments risk exists when certain investments are or become difficult to purchase or sell. Difficulty in selling such investments may result in sales at disadvantageous prices affecting the value of your investment in the Fund. Causes of illiquid investments risk may include low trading volumes, large positions and heavy redemptions of Fund shares. Illiquid investments risk may be higher in a rising interest rate environment, when the value and liquidity of fixed-income securities generally decline.

Management Risk: The Fund is subject to management risk because it is an actively managed investment fund. The Adviser will apply its investment techniques and risk analyses in making investment decisions, but there is

DISCLOSURES AND RISKS (continued)

 

no guarantee that its techniques will produce the intended results. Some of these techniques may incorporate, or rely upon, quantitative models, but there is no guarantee that these models will generate accurate forecasts, reduce risk or otherwise perform as expected.

Mortgage-Related and/or Other Asset-Backed Securities Risk: The Fund may invest in mortgage-backed and/or other asset-backed securities, including securities backed by mortgages and assets with an international or emerging-markets origination and securities backed by non-performing loans at the time of investment. Investments in mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities are subject to certain additional risks. The value of these securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in interest rates. These risks include “extension risk”, which is the risk that, in periods of rising interest rates, issuers may delay the payment of principal, and “prepayment risk”, which is the risk that, in periods of falling interest rates, issuers may pay principal sooner than expected, exposing the Fund to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. Mortgage-backed securities offered by nongovernmental issuers and other asset-backed securities may be subject to other risks, such as higher rates of default in the mortgages or assets backing the securities or risks associated with the nature and servicing of mortgages or assets backing the securities.

As with all investments, you may lose money by investing in the Fund.
