(a) Level 3 Investment as described in Note 2(m) in the Notes to Schedule of Investments. Security valued utilizing third party pricing information without adjustment. Such valuations are based on unobservable inputs. A significant change in third party information could result in a significantly lower or higher value of such Level 3 investments.

(d) Level 3 Investment as described in Note 2(m) in the Notes to Schedule of Investments. Floating Rate Loans categorized as Level 3 are valued based on a single quotation obtained from a dealer.

1. ORGANIZATION

 

Lord Abbett Global Fund, Inc. (the “Company”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as an open-end management investment company and was incorporated under Maryland law on February 23, 1988. The Company consists of the following four funds (each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”): Lord Abbett Emerging Markets Corporate Debt Fund (“Emerging Markets Corporate Debt Fund”), Lord Abbett Emerging Markets Currency Fund (“Emerging Markets Currency Fund”), Lord Abbett Emerging Markets Local Bond Fund (“Emerging Markets Local Bond Fund”) and Lord Abbett Multi-Asset Global Opportunity Fund (“Multi-Asset Global Opportunity Fund”). Emerging Markets Corporate Debt Fund and Multi-Asset Global Opportunity Fund are each diversified as defined in the Act and Emerging Markets Currency Fund and Emerging Markets Local Bond Fund are each non-diversified as defined in the Act.

 

Emerging Markets Currency Fund’s investment objective is to seek high total return. Emerging Markets Corporate Debt Fund, Emerging Markets Local Bond Fund and Multi-Asset Global Opportunity Fund’s investment objective is total return. Multi-Asset Global Opportunity Fund invests principally in other mutual funds (“Underlying Funds”) managed by Lord, Abbett & Co. LLC (“Lord Abbett”).

 

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

(a)Investment Valuation-Under procedures approved by the Funds’ Board of Directors (the “Board”), Lord Abbett, the Funds’ investment manager, has formed a Pricing Committee to administer the pricing and valuation of portfolio investments and to ensure that prices utilized reasonably reflect fair value. Among other things, these procedures allow the Funds to utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers and other market sources to determine fair value.
  
 Securities actively traded on any recognized U.S. or non-U.S. exchange or on The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC are valued at the last sale price or official closing price on the exchange or system on which they are principally traded. Events occurring after the close of trading on non-U.S. exchanges may result in adjustments to the valuation of foreign securities to reflect their fair value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange. Each Fund may utilize on an independent fair valuation service in adjusting the valuations of foreign securities. Unlisted equity securities are valued at the last quoted sale price or, if no sale price is available, at the mean between the most recently quoted bid and asked prices. Fixed income securities are valued based on evaluated prices supplied by independent pricing services, which reflect broker/dealer supplied valuations and the independent pricing services’ own electronic data processing techniques. Floating rate loans are valued at the average of bid and ask quotations obtained from dealers in loans on the basis of prices supplied by independent pricing services. Exchange traded options and futures contracts are valued at the last sale price in the market where they are principally traded. If no sale has occurred, the mean between the most recently quoted bid and asked prices is used. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued using daily forward exchange rates. Swaps are valued daily using independent pricing services or quotations from broker/dealers to the extent available. Investments in the Underlying Funds are valued at their net asset value (“NAV”) each business day at the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time.
  
Securities for which prices are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined by the Pricing Committee. The Pricing Committee considers a number of factors, including observable and unobservable inputs, when arriving at fair value. The Pricing Committee may use related or comparable assets or liabilities, recent transactions, market multiples, book values, yield curves, broker quotes, observable trading activity, option adjusted spread models and other relevant information to determine the fair value of portfolio investments. The Board or a designated committee thereof regularly reviews fair value determinations made by the Pricing Committee and employs techniques such as reviewing related market activity, reviewing inputs and assumptions, and retrospectively comparing prices of subsequent purchases and sales transactions to fair value determinations made by the Pricing Committee.
  
Short-term securities with 60 days or less remaining to maturity are valued using the amortized cost method, which approximates fair value.
  
(b)Security Transactions-Security transactions are recorded as of the date that the securities are purchased or sold (trade date).
 

Notes to Schedule of Investments (unaudited)(continued)

 

(c)Foreign Transactions-The books and records of Emerging Markets Corporate Debt Fund, Emerging Markets Currency Fund and Emerging Markets Local Bond Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars and transactions denominated in foreign currencies are recorded in each Fund’s records at the rate prevailing when earned or recorded.
  
 The Funds use foreign currency exchange contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts’ terms.
  
(d)Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts-Each Fund may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts in order to reduce their exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates on their foreign portfolio holdings, or gain or reduce exposure to foreign currency for investment purposes. A forward foreign currency exchange contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a negotiated rate. The contracts are valued daily at forward exchange rates.
  
(e)Futures Contracts-Each Fund may purchase and sell futures contracts to enhance returns, to attempt to economically hedge some of its investment risk, or as a substitute position in lieu of holding the underlying asset on which the instrument is based. At the time of entering into a futures transaction, an investor is required to deposit and maintain a specified amount of cash or eligible securities called “initial margin.” Subsequent payments made or received by a Fund called “variation margin” are made on a daily basis as the market price of the futures contract fluctuates. Each Fund will record an unrealized gain (loss) based on the amount of variation margin. When a contract is closed, a realized gain (loss) is recorded equal to the difference between the opening and closing value of the contract.
  
(f)When-Issued, Forward Transactions or To-Be-Announced (“TBA”) Transactions-Emerging Markets Corporate Debt Fund, Emerging Markets Currency Fund and Emerging Markets Local Bond Fund may purchase portfolio securities on a when-issued or forward basis. When-issued, forward transactions or TBA transactions involve a commitment by a Fund to purchase securities, with payment and delivery (“settlement”) to take place in the future, in order to secure what is considered to be an advantageous price or yield at the time of entering into the transaction. During the period between purchase and settlement, the fair value of the securities will fluctuate and assets consisting of cash and/or marketable securities (normally short-term U.S. Government or U.S. Government sponsored enterprise securities) marked to market daily in an amount sufficient to make payment at settlement will be segregated at each Fund’s custodian in order to pay for the commitment. At the time each Fund makes the commitment to purchase a security on a when-issued basis, it will record the transaction and reflect the liability for the purchase and fair value of the security in determining its NAV. Each Fund, generally, has the ability to close out a purchase obligation on or before the settlement date rather than take delivery of the security. Under no circumstances will settlement for such securities take place more than 120 days after the purchase date.
  
(g)Mortgage Dollar Rolls-Emerging Markets Corporate Debt Fund, Emerging Markets Currency Fund and Emerging Markets Local Bond Fund may enter into mortgage dollar rolls in which a Fund sells mortgage-backed securities for delivery in the current month and simultaneously contracts with the same counterparty to repurchase similar (same type, coupon and maturity) but not identical securities on a specified future date. During the roll period, each Fund loses the right to receive principal (including prepayments of principal) and interest paid on the securities sold.
  
(h)Commercial Paper-Each Fund may purchase commercial paper. Commercial paper consists of unsecured promissory notes issued by corporations to finance short-term credit needs. Commercial paper is issued in bearer form with maturities generally not exceeding nine months. Commercial paper obligations may include variable amount master demand notes.
 

Notes to Schedule of Investments (unaudited)(continued)

 

(i)Repurchase Agreements-Each Fund may enter into repurchase agreements with respect to securities. A repurchase agreement is a transaction in which a fund acquires a security and simultaneously commits to resell that security to the seller (a bank or securities dealer) at an agreed-upon price on an agreed-upon date. Each Fund requires at all times that the repurchase agreement be collateralized by cash, or by securities of the U.S. Government, its agencies, its instrumentalities, or U.S. Government sponsored enterprises having a value equal to, or in excess of, the value of the repurchase agreement (including accrued interest). If the seller of the agreement defaults on its obligation to repurchase the underlying securities at a time when the fair value of these securities has declined, a Fund may incur a loss upon disposition of the securities.
  
(j)Interest Rate Swaps-Each Fund may invest in interest rate swaps in order to enhance returns or hedge against interest rate risk. Interest rate swaps are agreements in which one party pays a stream of interest payments, either fixed or floating, for another party’s stream of interest payments, either fixed or floating, on the same notional amount for a specified period of time. The interest rate swap agreement will normally be entered into on a zero coupon basis, meaning that the floating rate will be based on the cumulative of the variable rate, and the fixed rate will compound until the swap’s maturity date, at which point the payments would be netted.
  
(k)Credit Default Swaps-Each Fund may enter into credit default swap contracts. As a seller of a credit default swap contract (“seller of protection”), a Fund is required to pay the notional amount or other agreed-upon value of a referenced debt obligation to the counterparty in the event of a default by or other credit event involving the referenced issuer, obligation or index. In return, a Fund receives from the counterparty a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract.
  
 As a purchaser of a credit default swap contract (“buyer of protection”), a Fund would receive the notional amount or other agreed upon value of a referenced debt obligation from the counterparty in the event of default by or other credit event involving the referenced issuer, obligation or index. In return, a Fund would make periodic payments to the counterparty over the term of the contracts, provided no event of default has occurred.
  
These credit default swaps may have as a reference obligation corporate or sovereign issuers or credit indexes. These credit indexes are comprised of a basket of securities representing a particular sector of the market. During the period, Emerging Markets Currency Fund entered into credit default swaps based on CMBX indexes, which are comprised of a basket of commercial mortgage-backed securities. Multi-Asset Global Opportunity Fund entered into a centrally cleared credit default swap based on a CDX high yield index, which is comprised of a basket of high yield securities.
  
Credit default swaps are fair valued based upon quotations from counterparties, brokers or market-makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as an unrealized appreciation or depreciation. For a credit default swap sold by a Fund, payment of the agreed-upon amount made by a Fund in the event of default of the referenced debt obligation is recorded as the cost of the referenced debt obligation purchased/received. For a credit default swap purchased by a Fund, the agreed-upon amount received by a Fund in the event of default of the referenced debt obligation is recorded as proceeds from sale/delivery of the referenced debt obligation and the resulting gain or loss realized on the referenced debt obligation is recorded as such by a Fund.
  
Any upfront payments made or received upon entering a credit default swap contract would be amortized or accreted over the life of the swap and recorded as realized gains or losses. Collateral, in the form of cash or securities, may be required to be held in segregated accounts with the custodian bank or broker in accordance with the swap agreement. The value and credit rating of each credit default swap where a Fund is the seller of protection, are both measures of the current payment/performance risk of the swap. As the value of the swap changes as a positive or negative percentage of the total notional amount, the payment/performance risk may decrease or increase, respectively. The maximum potential amount of future payments (undiscounted) that a Fund as a seller of protection could be required to make under a credit default swap agreement would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement. These potential amounts would be partially offset by any recovery values of the respective referenced obligations, upfront payments received upon entering into the agreement, or net amounts received from the settlement of buy protection credit default swap agreements entered into by a Fund for the same referenced entity or entities.
  
 Entering into credit default swaps involves credit and market risk. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of the contractual terms in the agreements, and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates, and that Lord Abbett does not correctly predict the creditworthiness of the issuers of the reference obligation on which the credit default swap is based. There was minimal counterparty credit risk to Multi-Asset Global Opportunity Fund during the period ended September 30, 2017, since the credit default swap entered into was through central clearinghouse, which guarantees against default.
 

Notes to Schedule of Investments (unaudited)(continued)

 

(l)Floating Rate Loans-Each Fund may invest in floating rate loans, which usually take the form of loan participations and assignments. Loan participations and assignments are agreements to make money available to U.S. or foreign corporations, partnerships or other business entities (the “Borrower”) in a specified amount, at a specified rate and within a specified time. A loan is typically originated, negotiated and structured by a U.S. or foreign bank, insurance company or other financial institution (the “Agent”) for a group of loan investors (“Loan Investors”). The Agent typically administers and enforces the loan on behalf of the other Loan Investors in the syndicate and may hold any collateral on behalf of the Loan Investors. Such loan participations and assignments are typically senior, secured and collateralized in nature. A Fund records an investment when the Borrower withdraws money and records interest as earned. These loans pay interest at rates which are periodically reset by reference to a base lending rate plus a spread. These base lending rates are generally the prime rate offered by a designated U.S. bank or London InterBank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”).
  
 The loans in which each Fund invests may be subject to some restrictions on resale. For example, each Fund may be contractually obligated to receive approval from the Agent and/or Borrower prior to the sale of these investments. Each Fund generally has no right to enforce compliance with the terms of the loan agreement with the Borrower. As a result, each Fund assumes the credit risk of the Borrower, the selling participant and any other persons interpositioned between each Fund and the Borrower (“Intermediate Participants”). In the event that the Borrower, selling participant or Intermediate Participants become insolvent or enter into bankruptcy, each Fund may incur certain costs and delays in realizing payment or may suffer a loss of principal and/or interest.
  
 Unfunded commitments represent the remaining obligation of each Fund to the Borrower. At any point in time, up to the maturity date of the issue, the Borrower may demand the unfunded portion. As of September 30, 2017, the Funds had no unfunded loan commitments.
  
(m)Fair Value Measurements-Fair value is defined as the price that each Fund would receive upon selling an investment or transferring a liability in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market of the investment. A three-tier hierarchy is used to maximize the use of observable market data and minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to establish classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk - for example, the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique used to measure fair value (such as a pricing model) and/or the risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Observable inputs are based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs are based on the best information available in the circumstances. The three-tier hierarchy classification is determined based on the lowest level of inputs that is significant to the fair value measurement, and is summarized in the three broad Levels listed below:

 

  Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments;
  Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.); and
  Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including each Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

 

A summary of inputs used in valuing each Fund’s investments and other financial instruments as of September 30, 2017 and, if applicable, Level 1/Level 2 transfers and Level 3 rollforwards for the period then ended is included in each Fund’s Schedule of Investments.
  
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the three-tier hierarchy. All transfers between different levels within the three-tier hierarchy are deemed to have occurred as of the beginning of the reporting period. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

3. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION

 

As of September 30, 2017, the aggregate unrealized gains and losses on investments and other financial instruments based on cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes were as follows:

 

   Emerging Markets
Corporate Debt Fund
   Emerging Markets
Currency Fund
 
Tax cost  $56,079,548   $238,858,160 
Gross unrealized gain   1,783,522     
Gross unrealized loss   (124,912)   (4,120,266)
Net unrealized gain (loss)  $1,658,610   $(4,120,266)
           
   Emerging Markets Local
Bond Fund
   Multi-Asset Global
Opportunity Fund
 
Tax cost  $10,307,919   $239,201,788 
Gross unrealized gain   396,620     
Gross unrealized loss   (948,523)   (2,075,665)
Net unrealized loss  $(551,903)  $(2,075,665)

 

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized gains (losses) is attributable to the tax treatment of certain distributions received, wash sales, currency contracts, futures and amortization of premium.

 

4. DISCLOSURES ABOUT DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

 

Each Fund entered into forward foreign currency exchange contracts for the period ended September 30, 2017 (as described in note 2(d)). A forward foreign currency exchange contract reduces each Fund’s exposure to changes in the value of the currency it will deliver (or settle in cash) and increases its exposure to changes in the value of the currency it will receive (or settle in cash) for the duration of the contract. Each Fund’s use of forward foreign currency exchange contracts involves the risk that Lord Abbett will not accurately predict currency movements, and each Fund’s returns could be reduced as a result. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are subject to the risk that those currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar, or, in the case of hedged positions, that the U.S. dollar will decline relative to the currency being hedged. Currency rates in foreign countries may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time. Each Fund’s risk of loss from counterparty credit risk is the unrealized appreciation on foreign currency exchange contracts and deposits with brokers as collateral.
  
 Multi-Asset Global Opportunity Fund entered into E-Mini S&P 500 Index futures contracts for the period ended September 30, 2017 (as described in note 2(e)) for investment purposes. The Fund bears the risk of interest rates moving unexpectedly, in which case the Fund may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the futures contracts and realize a loss. There is minimal counterparty credit risk to the Fund since futures are exchange traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees futures against default.
  
Emerging Markets Corporate Debt Fund, Emerging Markets Currency Fund and Multi-Asset Global Opportunity Fund entered into U.S. Treasury futures contracts for the period ended September 30, 2017 (as described in note 2(e)) to economically hedge against changes in interest rates. The Funds bear the risk of interest rates moving unexpectedly, in which case the Funds may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the futures contracts and realize a loss. There is minimal counterparty credit risk to the Funds since futures are exchange traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees futures against default.
  
 Emerging Markets Currency Fund and Multi-Asset Global Opportunity Fund entered into credit default swaps on indexes for the period ended September 30, 2017 (as described in note 2(k)) to hedge credit risk. Credit default swaps on indexes involve the exchange of a fixed rate premium for protection against the loss in value of underlying securities within an index in the event of a defined credit event, such as payment default or bankruptcy. Under a credit default swap one party acts as a guarantor by receiving
 

Notes to Schedule of Investments (unaudited)(continued)

 

the fixed periodic payment in exchange for the commitment to purchase the underlying security at par if the defined credit event occurs. Emerging Markets Currency Fund’s maximum risk of loss from counterparty risk, either as the protection seller or as the protection buyer, is the fair value of the contract. There is minimal counterparty credit risk to the Multi-Asset Global Opportunity Fund since centrally cleared credit default swaps are traded through a central clearinghouse. As the counterparty to all centrally cleared credit default swaps, the clearinghouse guarantees credit default swaps against default.
  
Emerging Markets Currency Fund entered into interest rate swaps for the period ended September 30, 2017 (as described in note 2(j)) to economically hedge against interest rate risk. The Fund’s use of interest rate swaps involves the risk that Lord Abbett will not accurately predict expectations of interest rates, and the Fund’s returns could be reduced as a result. There is minimal counterparty credit risk to the Fund since interest rate swaps are traded through a central clearinghouse. As the counterparty to all centrally cleared interest rate swaps, the clearinghouse guarantees interest rate swaps against default.
  
As of September 30, 2017, each Fund had the following derivatives at fair value, grouped into risk categories that illustrate the Funds’ use of derivative instruments:
