SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES (Unaudited)
 
As a stockholder of the Artio Global Equity Fund Inc. or a shareholder of Artio Global Investment Funds, you incur ongoing expenses, such as management fees, shareholder service fees, distribution fees and other fund expenses. The following table is intended to help you understand your ongoing expenses (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Funds and to compare these expenses with the ongoing expenses of investing in other funds.
 
The table is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from November 1, 2009 to April 30, 2010.
 
Actual Expenses
 
The first line in the table below provides information about the actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for the Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
 
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
 
The second line in the table below provides information about the hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account value and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

1.  Organization
 
The Artio Global Funds consist of the Artio Global Equity Fund Inc. (“Global Equity Fund”) and the Artio Global Investment Funds (the “Trust”). As of April 30, 2010, the Artio Global Funds are comprised of nine funds (each a “Fund” and together, the “Funds”).
 
The Global Equity Fund was incorporated under the laws of the State of Maryland on May 23, 1990 and is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”).
 
The Trust is registered with the SEC under the 1940 Act, as an open-end management investment company. As of April 30, 2010, the Trust offered eight diversified investment funds: Artio International Equity Fund (the “International Equity Fund”), Artio International Equity Fund II (the “International Equity Fund II”), Artio Total Return Bond Fund (the “Total Return Bond Fund”), Artio Global High Income Fund (the “Global High Income Fund”), Artio U.S. Microcap Fund (the “U.S. Microcap Fund”), Artio U.S. Smallcap Fund (the “U.S. Smallcap Fund”), Artio U.S. Midcap Fund (the “U.S. Midcap Fund”) and Artio U.S. Multicap Fund (the “U.S. Multicap Fund”). Each investment fund is diversified.
 
The International Equity Fund is closed to new shareholders (at the account level). This excludes 401(k) plans that have existing investments in the Fund through related 401(k) plans and new plan participants within 401(k) plans that hold positions in the Fund. In addition, existing shareholders may continue to invest.
 
Each of the Artio Global Funds offers multiple share classes. As of April 30, 2010, all of the Funds offered Class A and Class I shares. The classes of shares are offered to different types of investors and have different expense structures, as outlined in the Funds’ Prospectuses. Each class of shares has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters that affect that class. Income, realized gains and losses, unrealized appreciation and depreciation, and expenses that are not attributable to a specific class are allocated daily to each class based on its relative net assets. Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are charged to that Fund. Other expenses are allocated to the respective Fund based on average daily net assets.

2.  Significant Accounting Policies
 
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. The presentation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
 
a) Portfolio valuation: Each Fund’s assets for which market quotations are readily available are valued at fair value on the basis of quotations furnished by a pricing service or provided by securities dealers. Equity investments are generally valued using the last sale price or official closing price taken from the primary market in which each security trades, or if no sales occurred during the day, at the mean of the current quoted bid and asked prices. Fixed income securities are generally valued using prices provided directly by independent third party services or provided directly from one or more broker dealers or market makers, each in accordance with valuation procedures (“Valuation Procedures”) approved by the Global Equity Fund Board of Director’s, and the Trusts’ Board of Trustees (each a “Board” and collectively, “the Boards”), as applicable.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
 
The pricing services may use valuation models or matrix pricing, which considers yield or prices with respect to comparable bond quotations from bond dealers or by reference to other securities that are considered comparable in such characteristics as rating, interest rate and maturity date, to determine current value. Asset and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currency values will be converted into U.S. dollar values. Short-term dollar-denominated investments of appropriate credit quality that mature in 60 days or less are valued on the basis of amortized cost. To the extent each Fund invests in other open-end funds, the Fund will calculate its NAV based upon the NAV of the underlying funds in which it invests. The prospectuses of these underlying funds explain the circumstances under which they will use fair value pricing and the effects of such fair value pricing.
 
When market quotations or exchange rates are not readily available, or if the Adviser believes that such market quotations do not accurately reflect fair value, the fair value of a Fund’s assets are determined in good faith in accordance with the Valuation Procedures. For options, swaps and warrants, a fair value price may be determined using an industry accepted modeling tool using inputs, which may include yield data, risk free rate, volatility, contract terms, and others, as applicable. In addition, the Adviser, through its pricing committee may determine the fair value price based upon multiple factors as set forth in the Valuation Procedures approved by the Boards. These inputs may include prices of similar securities, yield data, the financial condition of the issuer, and other factors, as applicable. The closing prices of domestic or foreign securities may not reflect their market values at the time the Funds calculate their respective NAVs if an event that materially affects the value of those securities has occurred since the closing prices were established on the domestic or foreign exchange market, but before the Funds’ NAV calculations. Under certain conditions, the Boards have approved an independent pricing service to fair value foreign securities. Fair value pricing may cause the value of the security on the books of the Funds to be different from the closing value on the non-U.S. exchange and may affect the calculation of a Funds’ NAV. Certain Funds may fair value securities in other situations, for example, when a particular foreign market is closed but the Fund is open.
 
Fair value is defined as the price that the Funds would receive upon selling an investment in a timely transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment. Fair value measurements are determined within a framework that has established a three-tier hierarchy 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 including such a pricing model and/or the risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
 
Level 1 - 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.)
 
Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

b) Repurchase agreements: The Funds may engage in repurchase agreement transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, a Fund takes possession of an underlying debt obligation in return for the use of the Fund’s available cash, subject to an agreement by the seller to repurchase and the Fund to resell the obligation, at an agreed-upon price and time. Thus, the yield during the Fund’s holding period is determinable. This arrangement results in a fixed rate of return that is not subject to market fluctuations during a Fund’s holding period. The value of the collateral at all times is equal to at least 100% of the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including accrued interest. In the event of counterparty default, the Fund has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. There is potential loss to a Fund in the event a Fund is delayed or prevented from exercising its rights to dispose of the collateral securities, including the risk of a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period in which the Fund seeks to assert its rights. The Funds’ investment adviser reviews the value of the collateral and the creditworthiness of those banks and dealers with whom the Funds enter into repurchase agreements to evaluate potential risks. The Funds primarily engage in repurchase agreements with their custodian to accommodate cash sweeps of any residual U.S. dollars held in a particular portfolio.
 
c) Foreign currency: The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currencies and investments and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period as defined by the Funds’ Valuation Procedures. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. Unrealized gains or losses on investments denominated in foreign currencies which result from changes in foreign currencies have been included in the net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments. Net realized currency gains and losses include foreign currency gains and losses occurring between trade date and settlement date on investment securities transactions, gains and losses from foreign currency transactions and the gains and losses from differences between the amounts of interest and dividends recorded on the books of the Funds and the amounts actually received. The portion of foreign currency gains and losses related to fluctuations in exchange rates between the purchase settlement date and sale trade date is included in realized gains and losses on security transactions.
 
d) Forward foreign currency contracts: As part of its investment strategy, a Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to manage a Fund’s portfolio holdings against currency risks. A Fund may also utilize forward foreign currency contracts to reduce or eliminate an underweighted position in a currency relative to its

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
 
benchmark when purchasing underlying investments denominated in that currency is not advisable by the adviser. Forward foreign currency contracts are valued at the forward rate and are marked-to-market at each valuation date in the manner set forth by the Funds’ Valuation Procedures. The change in fair value is recorded by a Fund as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contract is closed, a Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. Such imperfect correlation may prevent the Fund from achieving the intended hedge or expose the Fund to the risk of currency exchange loss.
 
The use of forward foreign currency contracts does not eliminate fluctuations in the underlying prices of a Fund’s portfolio securities, but it does establish a rate of exchange that can be achieved in the future. Although forward foreign currency contracts to sell foreign currency limit the risk of loss due to a decline in the value of the currency holdings, they also limit any potential gain that might result should the value of the currency increase. In addition, a Fund could be exposed to risks if the counterparties to the contracts are unable to meet the terms of the contracts.
 
Some of the forward foreign currency contracts entered into by the Funds are classified as non-deliverable forwards (“NDF”). NDFs are cash-settled, short-term forward contracts that trade thinly or are denominated in non-convertible foreign currency, where the profit or loss at the time of the settlement date is calculated by taking the difference between the agreed upon exchange rate and the spot rate at the time of settlement, for an agreed upon notional amount of funds. All NDFs have a fixing date and a settlement date. The fixing date is the date at which the difference between the prevailing market exchange rate and the agreed upon exchange rate is calculated. The settlement date is the date by which the payment of the difference is due to the party receiving payment. NDFs are commonly quoted for time periods of one month up to one year, and are normally quoted and settled in U.S. dollars. They are often used to gain exposure to and/or to hedge exposure to foreign currencies that are not internationally traded. With respect to a Fund’s obligations to purchase or sell currencies under forward foreign currency contracts, a Fund will earmark liquid securities having a value at least equal to its obligations, or continue to own or have the right to sell or acquire respectively, the currency subject to the forward foreign currency contract. The Funds maximum risk of loss from counterparty credit risk is the unrealized appreciation of forward foreign exchange contracts recorded on the Statement of Asset and Liabilities.
 
e) Bank loans: The Global High Income Fund may invest in bank loans. Bank loans include institutionally traded floating and fixed-rate debt obligations generally
 
 
Artio Global Funds  ï  2010 Semi-Annual Report 179


Table of Contents

 
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
 
acquired as a participation interest in or assignment of a loan originated by a lender or financial institution. Assignments and participations involve credit, interest rate, and liquidity risk. Interest rates on floating rate securities adjust with interest rate changes and/or issuer credit quality. Many such loans are secured, although some may be unsecured. Loans that are fully secured offer a fund more protection than an unsecured loan in the event of non-payment of scheduled interest or principal. There is no assurance that any collateral securing a loan could be liquidated or, if liquidated, that such collateral would be of sufficient value to repay the loans taken against it. There may be limited secondary market liquidity for these instruments which could result in volatile pricing for the securities which in turn may affect this Fund’s NAV.
 
The Global High Income Fund may enter into certain credit agreements all or a portion of which may be unfunded. The Fund is obligated to fund these commitments at the borrower’s discretion. At April 30, 2010, there was one unfunded commitment which amounted to 2,400,973 par and had a market value of $2,135,365.
 
f) Foreign securities: Investing in securities of foreign companies and foreign governments involves special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies and the U.S. government. These risks include the loss of value in investments of foreign securities because of currency exchange rate fluctuations, price volatility that may exceed the volatility of U.S. securities, uncertain political conditions, lack of timely and reliable financial information and other factors. These risks are increased for investment in emerging markets. Emerging market securities involve unique risks, such as exposure to economies less diverse and mature than that of the U.S. or more established foreign markets. Economic or political instability may cause larger price changes in emerging market securities than other foreign securities. Moreover, securities of many foreign companies and foreign governments and their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than those of securities of comparable U.S. companies and the U.S. government.
 
g) Financial futures contracts: In order to gain exposure to or protect against changes in security values, the Funds may buy and sell futures contracts. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between changes in fair values of securities held by the Funds and the prices of future contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. To the extent fluctuations in value are not settled with the counterparty on a daily basis, the Funds are also subject to the credit risk of the counterparty. Cash collateral for futures contracts outstanding may be held by the broker on certain contracts. These amounts are included on the

Table of Contents

 
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
 
Statement of Assets and Liabilities as cash on deposit with broker. The Funds enter into futures contracts for hedging purposes, managing the duration and yield curve profile, market exposure or to enhance income.
 
Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. The aggregate principal amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the financial statements. The Funds generally agree to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuations in the value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as “variation margin” and are recorded by a Fund as unrealized gains or losses. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Operations as unrealized gains or losses until the contracts are closed, at which point they are recorded as net realized gains or losses on futures contracts.
 
The Funds may also enter into swap contracts that function similar to futures contracts (synthetic futures) to gain exposure or to protect against changes in security values. Generally these contracts are counterparty agreements and do not require daily variation margin payments to be directly paid to the counterparty, however they do require hard segregation of cash. These amounts are included on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as cash on deposit with broker. The Funds are exposed to the credit risk of the counterparty in addition to the risks described above. The accounting treatment of such contracts is similar to that described above for standard futures contracts. The Funds disclose synthetic futures with other futures contracts. The Funds’ maximum risk of loss associated with financial futures contracts and synthetic futures contracts due to counterparty credit risk is the unrealized appreciation for financial futures contracts and synthetic futures contracts.
 
h) Options: The Funds may write options to generate current income and to manage investment risk. Each Fund may write put and call options on up to 25% of the value of the securities in its portfolio and will realize fees (referred to as “premiums”) for granting the rights evidenced by the options. When a Fund writes a call option or a put option, an amount equal to the premium received by that Fund is recorded as a liability, the value of which is marked-to-market at each valuation date. When a written option expires, that Fund realizes a gain equal to the amount of the premium originally received. When a Fund enters into a closing purchase transaction, the Fund realizes a gain (or loss if the cost of the closing purchase transaction exceeds the premium originally received when the option was sold/written) without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on the underlying security, and the liability related to such option is eliminated. When a call option is exercised,
 
 
Artio Global Funds  ï  2010 Semi-Annual Report 181


Table of Contents

 
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
 
a Fund realizes a gain or loss from the sale of the underlying security and the proceeds from such sale are increased by the amount of the premium originally received. When a put option is exercised, the amount of the premium originally received will reduce the cost of the security the Fund purchased upon exercise. The Funds will only write covered options.
 
The Funds may purchase put and call options that are traded on foreign as well as U.S. exchanges and in the over-the-counter market. Each Fund may utilize up to 5% of its total assets to purchase both put options on portfolio securities and instruments in which it may invest and an additional 5% of its total assets to purchase call options on securities and instruments in which it may invest. Purchases of put and call options are recorded as an investment, the value of which is marked-to-market at each valuation date. When a purchased option expires, no proceeds will be expected and a Fund will realize a loss. When a Fund exercises a put option, it will realize a gain or loss from the sale of the underlying security and the proceeds from such sale will be decreased by the premium originally paid. When a Fund exercises a call option, the cost of the security which the Fund purchases upon exercise will be increased by the premium originally paid.
 
Each Fund, except the Total Return Bond Fund, may purchase and sell call and put options on stock indices. In contrast to an option on a security, an option on a stock index provides the holder with the right but not the obligation to make or receive a cash settlement upon exercise of the option, rather than the right to purchase or sell a security. The amount of this settlement is equal to (i) the amount, if any, by which the fixed exercise price of the option exceeds (in the case of a call) or is below (in the case of a put) the closing value of the underlying index on the date of exercise, multiplied by (ii) a fixed “index multiplier.”
 
A Fund’s risks in using these contracts include changes in the value of the underlying instruments, non-performance of the counterparties under the contracts’ terms and changes in the liquidity of the secondary market for the contracts. The Funds’ maximum risk of loss from counterparty risk related to non-exchange traded purchased options is the fair value investment. The Funds’ maximum risk of loss related to written non-exchange traded options is minimal as the Funds’ receive the premium when the options are sold. This risk is mitigated by having a master netting arrangement between the funds and the counterparty and by the posting of collateral by the counterparty to the Funds to cover the Funds’ exposure to the counterparty.
 
i) Swaps: The Funds may enter into interest rate, currency, index, total return and credit default swaps. The Funds expect to enter into these transactions primarily to preserve a return or spread on a particular investment or portion of their portfolio,
 
 
182 Artio Global Funds  ï  2010 Semi-Annual Report


Table of Contents

 
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
 
to protect against currency fluctuations, as a duration management technique or to protect against any increase in the price of securities the Funds anticipate purchasing at a later date. Interest rate swaps involve the exchange with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, for example, an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to a notional amount of principal. A currency swap is an agreement to exchange cash flows on a notional amount of two or more currencies based on the relative value differential among them and an index swap is an agreement to swap cash flows on a notional amount based on changes in the values of the reference indices. A total return swap is an agreement to exchange the return on a stock, bond or index for a fixed or variable financing charge. A credit default swap is an agreement between two counterparties that allows one party to be “long” a third-party credit risk, and the other party to be “short” the credit risk. Credit default swaps are designed to transfer the credit exposure of fixed income products between parties.
 
The Funds will usually enter into swaps on a net basis, that is, the two payment streams are netted out in a cash settlement on the payment date or dates specified in the instrument, with a Fund receiving or paying, as the case may be, only the net amount of the two payments. In as much as these swaps are entered into for good faith hedging purposes, the investment adviser believes such obligations do not constitute senior securities under the 1940 Act, and, accordingly, will not treat them as being subject to its borrowing restrictions. The Funds will not enter into any swap transaction unless, at the time of entering into such transaction, the unsecured long-term debt of the counterparty, combined with any credit enhancements on the swap contracts, is rated at least A by Standard & Poor’s (S&P) or Moody’s or has an equivalent rating from a Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization (“NRSRO”) or is determined to be of equivalent credit quality by the investment adviser. If there is a default by the counterparty, the Funds may have contractual remedies pursuant to the agreements related to the transaction.
 
Entering into swap agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit and market risk in excess of the amounts recognized on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. 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 and that there may be unfavorable changes in the value of the index or securities underlying the agreement. The Funds’ maximum risk of loss from counterparty risk related to swaps is the fair value of the contract. This risk is mitigated by having a master netting arrangement between the funds and the counterparty and by the posting of collateral by the counterparty to the Funds to cover the Funds’ exposure to the counterparty.”

Certain Funds hold derivative instruments which contain credit-risk-related contingent provisions. If the Fund’s net assets were to fall below certain thresholds from the prior fiscal year net assets, it would be in violation of these provisions, and the counterparties to the derivative instruments could request immediate payment or demand immediate and ongoing full overnight collateralization on derivative instruments in net liability positions. The aggregate fair value of all derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features that are in a liability position on April 30, 2010, is $0 for which the Global High Income Fund has posted collateral of $2,960,000 in the normal course of business.
 
j) Securities lending: Global Equity Fund, International Equity Fund, International Equity Fund II, U.S. Microcap Fund, U.S. Smallcap Fund, U.S. Midcap Fund and U.S. Multicap Fund have established securities lending agreements with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”) in which the Funds lend portfolio securities to a broker in exchange for collateral consisting of either cash or U.S. government securities in an amount at least equal to 100% of the fair value of the securities on loan. These Funds may loan securities to brokers, dealers, and financial institutions determined by Artio Global Management LLC, (“Artio Global” or “Adviser”) to be creditworthy, subject to certain limitations. Under these agreements, these Funds continue to earn income on the securities loaned. Collateral received is generally cash, and such Funds invest the cash in the State Street Navigator Securities Lending Prime Portfolio. These Funds receive any interest on the amount invested, but they must also pay the broker a loan rebate fee computed as a varying percentage of the collateral received. In the event of counterparty default, these Funds are subject to potential loss if any such Fund is delayed or prevented from exercising its right to dispose of the collateral. These Funds each bear risk in the event that invested collateral is not sufficient to meet obligations due on the loans.
 
The security lending income net of the loan rebate fee for the Global Equity Fund, International Equity Fund and the International Equity Fund II, amounted to $243, $2,301,683 and $1,845,685, respectively, for the period ended April 30, 2010 and is included in securities lending income in the Statement of Operations.
 
As of April 30, 2010, the value of the securities on loan and the value of the collateral was as follows:
 
                     
    Fair Value of
       
    Securities on Loan   Value of Collateral    
International Equity Fund
  $ 918,764,440     $ 949,815,128      
International Equity Fund II
    1,004,120,058       1,038,731,123

k) Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and includes amortization and accretion of bond premiums and discounts, respectively, using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recorded in the Statement of Operations on the ex-dividend date or when the Funds becomes aware of the dividend distribution in the case of certain foreign securities. It is expected that certain capital gains earned by the Funds and certain dividends and interest received by the Funds will be subject to foreign withholding taxes.
 
The Funds are subject to a 2% Imposto sobre Operacoes Financeiras (IOF) transaction tax levied by the Brazilian government on certain foreign exchange transactions related to security transactions executed across Brazilian exchanges. The IOF tax has been included in net realized gain (loss) from foreign currency transactions in the Statement of Operations.
 
l) Dividends and distributions to shareholders: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Each Fund intends to distribute annually to its shareholders substantially all of its taxable income. Total Return Bond Fund and Global High Income Fund declare and pay dividends monthly. International Equity Fund, International Equity Fund II, Global Equity Fund, U.S. Microcap Fund, U.S. Smallcap Fund, U.S. Midcap Fund and U.S. Multicap Fund declare and pay dividends from net investment income, if any, annually. The Funds will distribute net realized capital gains, if any, annually. Additional distributions of net investment income and capital gains may be made at the discretion of the Boards of the Funds to avoid the application of the excise tax imposed under Section 4982 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, for certain undistributed amounts. Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities held by the Funds, timing differences and differing characterization of distributions made by the Funds as a whole.
 
m) Federal income taxes: The Global Equity Fund and the Trust intend that each Fund separately qualify as a regulated investment company for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, the Funds do not anticipate that any income taxes will be paid.
 
Management has performed an analysis of each Fund’s tax positions for the open tax years as of October 31, 2009 and has concluded that no provisions for income tax are required. Management is not aware of any events that are reasonably possible to occur in the next twelve months that would result in the amounts of any unrecognized tax

benefits significantly increasing or decreasing for the Funds. However, management’s conclusions regarding tax positions taken may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, new tax laws and accounting regulations and interpretations thereof. The Funds’ income and excise tax returns and all financial records supporting those returns for the prior three fiscal years are subject to examination by the federal, Massachusetts and Delaware revenue authorities.

Effective May 1, 2008, the Adviser agreed to waive a portion of its management fee for each of the Funds at the annual rate of 0.005% of the respective Funds’ average daily net assets. This waiver may be terminated at any time by the Funds’ Boards.
 
The Adviser has contractually agreed to reimburse certain expenses of the Funds listed in the table below, through February 27, 2011, so that the net operating expenses of each Fund (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, and extraordinary expenses) based on average daily net assets are limited (the “Expense Limit”) as specified in the table below. Any Fund with a reimbursement plan has agreed to allow the Adviser to recoup expenses reimbursed to each Fund provided that repayment does not cause each of the Fund’s annual operating expenses to exceed the Expense Limit in place at the time of the reimbursement. Any such recoupment must be made within three years after the year in which the Adviser incurred the expense. The table below specifies the reimbursement made to each Fund by the Adviser for the period ended April 30, 2010 and the Adviser’s potential recoupment as of April 30, 2010.

The Funds entered into expense offset arrangements as part of their custody agreement with State Street. Under this agreement, the custody fees for the International Equity Fund, International Equity Fund II, and Global High Income Fund were reduced by $138,331, $138,259 and $16,948 respectively, for the period ended April 30, 2010 due to earnings credits on cash balances maintained by the Funds in foreign sub-custodial accounts. These amounts may vary significantly over time, based on the Adviser’s decisions regarding cash positions held in the Funds and current interest rates from market to market.
 
4.  Distribution and Shareholder Services Plans
 
The Funds have adopted a Distribution and Shareholder Services Plan (the “Plan”), pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Under the Plan each Fund’s Class A shares may compensate certain financial institutions, including the Distributor, for certain distribution, shareholder servicing, administrative and accounting services. The Funds’ Class A shares may expend an aggregate amount, on an annual basis, not to exceed 0.25% of the value of the average daily net assets of a Fund attributable to Class A shares. The Adviser may pay additional marketing and other distribution costs out of its profits.
 
Quasar Distributors, LLC (“Quasar” or “Distributor”) is the Distributor of the Funds’ shares.
 
Under their terms, the Funds’ Plan shall remain in effect from year to year, provided such continuance is approved annually by a vote of a majority of the Boards’ members and a majority of those Boards’ members who are not “interested persons” of the Funds and who have no direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of the Plan or in any agreement related to the Plan.
 
The International Equity Fund is closed to new shareholders (at the account level). As a result, all 12b-1 payments made by the International Equity Fund are only to compensate certain financial intermediaries for shareholder servicing and/or asset retention.

(T)
  The Fund entered into this contract for speculative purposes.
(1)
  If the Fund is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Fund will either (i) pay to the buyer of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index or (ii) pay a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index.
(2)
  The maximum potential amount the Fund could be required to pay as a seller of credit protection or receive as a buyer of credit protection as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement.

(3)
  The quoted market prices and resulting values for credit default swap agreements on asset-backed securities and credit indices serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the expected amount paid or received for the credit derivative if the amount of the swap agreement was closed/sold as of the period end. Increasing fair values, in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the referenced Index’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreements.
 
d) Quantitative Disclosure of Derivative Holdings:
 
A Fund may use derivatives, which are financial contracts whose value depends on, or is derived from, the value of underlying assets, reference rates, or indices, to increase, decrease or adjust elements of the investment exposure of the Fund’s portfolio. Derivatives may relate to securities, interest rates, exchange rates, inflation rates, commodities and indices, and include swaps and exchange traded and over-the-counter contracts. These derivatives are for both hedging and speculative purposes. As of and for the period ended April 30, 2010, derivative summary tables for each Fund are as follows:

On September 29, 2009, Artio Global Equity Fund Inc. and Artio Global Investment Funds (the “Borrowers”) entered into a new Credit Agreement (the “Agreement”) with State Street Bank and Trust Company (the “Bank”). The Agreement provides for a $250,000,000 (the “Facility Amount”) revolving credit facility to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity purposes. On December 1, 2009, the Agreement was amended to increase the sublimit that the Artio Global High Income Fund may

Under the Agreement, the average daily outstanding daily balance utilized by the Global Equity Fund, International Equity Fund, International Equity Fund II, U.S. Microcap Fund, U.S. Smallcap Fund and the U.S. Midcap Fund during the period ended April 30, 2010 was $158,655, $15,936,501, $4,311,867, $8,016, $2,972 and $331, respectively, at an average weighted interest rate of 1.46%, 1.46%, 1.45%, 1.43%, 1.42% and 1.50%, respectively. The Total Return Bond Fund, Global High Income Fund and the U.S. Multicap Fund did not utilize the Agreement during the period ended April 30, 2010.
 
On April 26, 2010, the Agreement was amended to remove the Global High Income Fund and the Global High Income Fund entered into a separate Credit Agreement (the “Global High Income Fund Credit Agreement”) with the Bank. The Global High Income Fund Credit Agreement provides for a $100,000,000 revolving credit facility to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity purposes.

INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENTS (Unaudited)
 
At a meeting held on April 21, 2010, the Board of Trustees of the Artio Global Investment Funds and the Board of Directors of the Artio Global Equity Fund Inc. (each a “Board” and collectively the “Boards”) approved the Investment Advisory Agreements (each an “Agreement” and collectively the “Agreements”) with the adviser for each of the International Equity Fund, International Equity Fund II, Total Return Bond Fund, Global High Income Fund, U.S. Microcap Fund, U.S. Smallcap Fund, U.S. Midcap Fund, U.S. Multicap Fund and Global Equity Fund (each a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”).
 
In determining whether to approve the Agreements, the Boards, including all of the Trustees and Directors who are not interested persons under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (the “Independent Board Members”), reviewed and considered, among other items: (1) a guide from independent counsel setting forth each Board’s fiduciary duties and responsibilities and the factors each Board should consider in its evaluation of the renewals of the Agreements; (2) comparative information, comparing each Fund’s advisory fees, expenses and returns to those of its relevant peer group; (3) the Adviser’s complete Form ADV; (4) the Adviser’s Financial Statements for December 31, 2009; and (5) other reports of and presentations by representatives of the Adviser that described: (i) the nature, extent and quality of the Adviser’s services provided to the respective Funds; (ii) the experience and qualifications of the personnel providing those services, (iii) their investment advice and performance; (iv) their assets under management and client descriptions; (v) their soft dollar commission and trade allocation policies, including information on the types of research and services obtained in connection with soft dollar commissions; (vi) the advisory fee arrangements with the Funds and other similarly managed clients; (vii) compliance program information; (viii) the Adviser’s financial information and profitability analysis related to providing service to the Funds; (ix) fees and other benefits; (x) methodologies to allocate securities among the Funds; (xi) outstanding lawsuits; (xii) breakpoints; and (xiii) the extent to which economies of scale are relevant to the Funds.
 
In determining whether to approve the Agreements, the Boards, including the Independent Board Members, reviewed and considered the materials presented at the April 21, 2010 meeting of the Boards. The Boards discussed the written materials and the Adviser’s presentations and deliberated on the approval of the Agreements in light of this information. In their deliberations, the Boards did not identify any single piece of information that was all important or controlling, but gave significant weight to the relative investment performance of each Fund along with consideration of the other relevant factors.
