Re: Rule 17g-1 Filing

TCW Strategic Income Fund, Inc. (File No. 811-04980) (the “Fund”)

Dear Sir or Madam:

As required by Rule 17g-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), I enclose the following on behalf of the Fund:

(1) Endorsement No. 14, 15, and 16 (the “Endorsements”) to the Fund’s joint fidelity bond, issued by Federal Insurance Company (Chubb), originally filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 25, 2023 (Accession Number 0001193125-23-193136) (the “Fidelity Bond”). The purpose of the Endorsements is to amend the Fund’s Fidelity Bond to add TCW ETF Trust as an assured and increase the Fidelity Bond coverage;

(2) Certificate of the Secretary of the Fund that contains a copy of the resolutions from the March 4, 2024 meeting of the Fund’s Board of Directors, at which a majority of Directors who are not considered to be “interested persons” within the meaning of the 1940 Act approved the amount, allocation, type, form and coverage of the Fidelity Bond; and

(3) Copy of the amended and restated joint insured bond agreement.

The premium has been paid for the period June 30, 2023 to June 30, 2024. Had the Fund obtained a separate fidelity bond, the amount of coverage required would have been $600,000.

Very truly yours,

/s/ Peter Davidson

AMENDED AND RESTATED JOINT INSURED BOND AGREEMENT

AGREEMENT dated as of June 12, 2023, between Metropolitan West Funds, TCW Strategic Income Fund, Inc. and TCW Funds, Inc.

BACKGROUND

A. Each of the parties to this Agreement is a management investment company (“Fund”) registered under the Investment company Act of 1940 (the “Act”).

B. Rule 17g-1 under the Act requires each registered management investment company to provide and maintain in effect a bond against larceny and embezzlement by its officers and employees.

C. Rule 17g-1 authorizes the parties hereto to secure a joint insured bond naming each of them as insureds.

D. Each of the parties hereto is, or will be, named as an insured on a joint fidelity bond which has a term of one year commencing on or about June 30, 2023.

E. A majority of the Boards of Directors of the respective parties hereto, who are not “interested persons’ of such party as defined by Section 2(a)(19) of the Act, have given due consideration to all factors relevant to the form, amount and ratable allocation of premiums of such joint insured bonds and each such governing body of the representative parties has approved the terms and amount of the bonds and the portion of the premiums payable by that party hereunder.

F. Each party has determined that the allocation of the proceeds payable under the joint insured bonds as set forth herein (which takes into account the minimum amount of bond required for each party by Rule 17g-1 if it maintained a single insured bond) is equitable.

G. Each of the parties now desires to enter into this Agreement, intending to replace the Amended and Restated Joint Insured Bond Agreement dated as of June 13, 2022 among these same parties.

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, hereby agree as follows:

1. Joint Insured Bond. Each party shall maintain in effect a joint fidelity insurance bond(s) (the “Bond”) from a reputable fidelity insurance company, authorized to do business in the place where the Bond is issued, insuring such party against larceny and embezzlement and covering such of its officers and employees who may, singly or jointly with others, have access, directly or indirectly, to its securities or funds. The Bond shall name each party as an insured and shall comply with the requirements for such bonds established by Rule 17g-1.

2. Ratable Allocation of Premium.

a) The premium will be allocated ratably among the Funds, provided, however, that should an increase in the Bond be required by reason of an increase in the gross assets of one or more Funds, each party hereto shall pay a share of the increased premium for the increased bond equal to such party’s increase in assets divided by the total increase in assets. With respect to named insureds that may be added to the bonds and this Agreement pursuant to Section 6 hereof subsequent to the inception date of the bonds, any such increases in gross assets for the purpose of this Section 2(a) shall be measured from $0 dollars and prorated from the inception date of coverage under the bonds.

b) Notwithstanding the provision of Section 2(a), any additional premiums that may become due under any Bond as a result of the addition of a named insured thereunder pursuant to Section 6 hereof, which addition did not require an increase in the amount of any such Bond, shall be payable, with respect to the Funds’ portion of such premium, by the additional named insured.

3. Ratable Allocation of Proceeds.

a) If more than one of the parties sustains a single loss (including a loss sustained before the date hereof) for which recovery is received under the Bond, each such party shall receive that portion of the recovery which is sufficient in amount to indemnify that party in full for the loss sustained by it, unless the recovery is inadequate to fully indemnify all such parties sustaining a single loss.

b) If the recovery is inadequate to fully indemnify all parties sustaining a single loss, the recovery shall be allocated among such parties as follows:

i. Each such Fund sustaining a loss shall be allocated an amount equal to the lesser of its actual loss or the minimum amount of the fidelity bond which would be required to be maintained by such party under a single insured bond (determined as of the time of the loss in accordance with the provisions of Rule 17g-1).

ii. The remaining portion of the recovery (if any) shall be allocated to each party sustaining a loss not fully indemnified by the allocation under subparagraph (i) in the same proportion as the portion of each party’s loss which is not fully indemnified bears to the sum of the unindemnified losses of all such parties. If such allocation would result in any party receiving a portion of the recovery in excess of the loss actually sustained by it, the aggregate of such excess portions shall be allocated among the other parties whose losses would not be fully indemnified in the same proportion as the portion of each such party’s loss which is not fully indemnified bears to the sum of all of the unindemnified losses of all such parties. Any allocation in excess of a loss actually sustained by any party shall be reallocated in the same manner.

4. Claims and Settlements. Each party shall, within five days after the making of any claim under the Bond, provide the other parties with written notice of the amount and nature of such claim. Each party shall, within five days after the receipt thereof, provide the other parties with written notice of the terms of settlement of any claim made under the Bond by such party. In the event that two or more parties shall agree to settlement with the fidelity company of a claim made under the Bond with respect to a single loss, such parties shall, within five days after settlement, provide any other party not a party to such claim with written notice of the amounts to be received by each claiming responsible for filing notices required by paragraph (g) of Rule 17g-1 under the Act shall give and receive any notice required hereby.

5. Modifications and Amendments. Any party may increase the amount of the Bond. Such party must give written notice thereof to the other parties to this Agreement. If pursuant to Rule 17g-1 any party shall determine that the coverage provided pursuant to this Agreement should otherwise be modified, it shall so notify the other parties hereto, and indicate the nature of the modification which it believes to be appropriate. If, within 45 days of such notice, any necessary amendments to this Agreement shall not have been made and the request for modification shall not have been withdrawn, this Agreement shall terminate with respect to such party (except with respect to losses occurring prior to such termination). Any party may withdraw from this Agreement at any time and cease to be a party hereto (except with respect to losses occurring prior to such withdrawal) by giving written notice to the other parties of such withdrawal. Upon withdrawal, a withdrawing party shall be entitled to receive any portion of any premium rebated by the fidelity company with respect to such withdrawal.

6. Additional Named Insureds. Any newly created investment company managed by a direct or indirect subsidiary of The TCW Group, Inc., and required to maintain a bond pursuant to Rule 17g-1 may be added as an additional named insured to the Bond and as an additional party to this Agreement upon execution of a Schedule I in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit A. Inclusion of such Company as a party to this Agreement shall be effective as of the date such company is added to the Bond as a named insured. No payment of any portion of the initial premiums shall be required of any additional named insured company, it being hereby agreed that any such reimbursement amount due to each of the other parties to this Agreement would be de minimis. Any additional premium due and payable as a result of, or subsequent to, addition of such investment company under the Bond shall be payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 3 hereof.

7. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California.

8. No Assignment. This Agreement is not assignable.

9. Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be addressed to the appropriate party at 865 South Figueroa Street, Los Angeles, CA 90017.

Certain of the Funds are comprised of Portfolios. All obligations of any of such respective Funds under this Agreement shall apply only on a Portfolio by Portfolio basis, and the assets of one Portfolio shall not be liable for the obligations of any other Portfolio.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the parties hereto has duly executed this Agreement as of the day and year first above written.
