Letter to Shareholders

April 30, 2014

Dear Valued Shareholder,

Welcome to the Aberdeen Investment Funds and Aberdeen Global Select Opportunities Fund Inc. Semi-Annual Report covering the activities for the six-month period ended April 30, 2014.

Market overview

During the reporting period, global securities markets experienced volatility as the performance of equities in developed markets and emerging markets (EM) diverged significantly. Developed market equity market performance was underpinned by improving sentiment on the back of the European Central Bank’s (ECB) interest rate cut and continued strong performance in U.S. equities. The U.S. broader-market S&P 500^® Index and the MSCI World Index continued to post sizeable gains. Conversely, the sell-off in EM slowed as investors turned back to opportunities in the asset class, although risk aversion remains. Within the fixed income universe, both investment-grade and high yield bond markets gained ground during the period, while local currency debt in the emerging markets declined and was the primary global market laggard for the period.

Markets braced in the spring of 2014 as the world headed to the polls in mid-term and general elections – more than 40% of the world’s population is eligible to vote in elections in 2014. Notable was India’s general election, which saw 550 million citizens hit the polls in the largest election in world history. In the U.S., voters have been hitting the polls in primaries for mid-term elections as Republican-backed political action committees spend record amounts on congressional elections in an effort to divert support from reactionary Tea Party candidates. In Europe, tensions over Russian President Vladimir Putin’s aggressive annexation of the Crimean Peninsula in Ukraine added to uncertainty over European and EM equities. Likewise, implications for Asian markets after the military coup d’état in Thailand have yet to become entirely clear.

Anne Richards, Aberdeen Asset Management PLC’s (Aberdeen) Chief Investment Officer, provides you with a detailed insight on the investment marketplace in the Market Review on the following page.

Aberdeen developments

As of April 1, 2014, Aberdeen completed the acquisition of Scottish Widows Investment Partnership (SWIP) from Lloyds Banking Group in the UK. The addition of SWIP’s approximately $230 billion of assets under management resulted in Aberdeen becoming the leading European independent asset management business, with $541 billion under management⁽¹⁾. The acquisition combines Aberdeen and SWIP’s strengths across fixed income, real estate, active and quantitative equities, investment solutions and alternatives. The acquisition of SWIP will not directly impact any funds in the Aberdeen Investment Funds and Aberdeen Global Select Opportunities Fund Inc. family but will significantly add to Aberdeen’s global capabilities.

Aberdeen received several industry awards during the period, including six Financial Communications Society (FCS) Portfolio Awards in the Business to Business, Corporate and Consumer categories for Aberdeen’s marketing initiatives in the U.S.

Since the six months ended April 30, 2014, Aberdeen launched two Brazil-domiciled funds establishing our new fund family “Aberdeen Brasil,” alongside Aberdeen Funds, Aberdeen Investment Funds, Aberdeen Global Select Opportunities Fund Inc., and the range of Aberdeen closed-end funds in the U.S. The funds are the Aberdeen Brasil Equity Fund⁽²⁾ and Aberdeen Strategic Brasil Multimarket Fund⁽²⁾ and they target both retail and institutional clients. Business Development efforts for the funds are being led by Aberdeen’s newly established Brazilian Business development team in São Paulo.

2014 Semi-Annual Report

Market Review

There was a notable divergence in performance among major global equity markets during the six-month period ended April 30, 2014. Developed market indices generally moved higher over the period, significantly outperforming their emerging markets counterparts. The U.S. broader-market S&P 500^® Index and the MSCI All Country World ex-U.S. Index gained 8.4% and 3.1%, respectively, versus the -2.9% return of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index over the semiannual period. Sentiment in the developed markets was lifted by the European Central Bank’s (ECB) unexpected benchmark interest rate cut by 25 basis points to 0.25%, as well as generally improving economic data. The middle of the period saw increased risk-aversion, fueled by renewed turmoil in emerging economies, mixed U.S. and Chinese economic data, and the start of the U.S. Federal Reserve’s (Fed) tapering of its asset purchase program in January 2014. In particular, emerging markets currencies suffered a sharp sell-off. However, investor confidence appeared to strengthen after the ECB signaled that it was open to further monetary policy easing.

The strength in the U.S. equity market was attributable mainly to generally positive corporate earnings reports and steady but moderate overall improvement in economic data for much of the reporting period. This offset some uncertainty late in the period resulting from Russia’s expansion of its military presence in the Crimea region of Ukraine. Shortly after the end of the reporting period in late May, the estimate of first-quarter U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) was adjusted downward to a 1.0% decrease–a sharp drop from the 2.6% expansion in the fourth quarter of 2013–as a decline in private inventory investment outpaced the increase in consumer spending. The harsh winter weather in much of the country contributed to the contraction in GDP.

European and UK equities also posted gains during the reporting period, but underperformed relative to U.S. stocks. Initial concerns over the Fed’s tapering of quantitative easing gave way to hope that economic recovery in the U.S. appeared more sustainable. Markets were subsequently hampered by worries of an economic hard landing in China and the growing crisis in Ukraine. Towards the end of the period, market sentiment recovered somewhat on increased merger-and-acquisition activity and the ECB’s pledge to use unconventional measures to avert potential deflation. On the economic front, the Eurozone’s recovery was lackluster amid still-elevated unemployment, but the UK economy continued to gain momentum with GDP growth of 3.1% reported for the first quarter of 2014—the quickest pace of activity since 2008. Japan was the main overall global stock market laggard for the reporting period, a reversal of its strong performance for the 2013 calendar year. The Japanese market was weighed down primarily by concerns over the impact of the consumption tax hike on domestic demand, as well as sluggish fourth-quarter 2013 GDP growth.

The global emerging stock markets declined over the reporting period, encountering several stretches of volatility. Ongoing anxiety about the impact of the Fed’s tapering, along with resurgent fears of a substantial economic slowdown in China, initially drove stock prices lower, but markets later rebounded as these concerns eased. Nonetheless, the upturn did not mitigate the earlier losses. Central and Eastern Europe were the primary overall market laggards, dragged down by heightened political tension over Russia’s intervention in Ukraine and its subsequent annexation of Crimea. Among emerging Asian markets, China and Thailand lagged their peers. Chinese equities were weak as soft economic data and worries over bank runs and looming bankruptcies of real estate firms dampened on investor sentiment.

Within the global fixed income universe, high yield securities outperformed investment-grade bonds for the semiannual period, with the Bank of America Merrill Lynch (BofA ML) Global High Yield Constrained Index gaining 5.1% versus the 2.1% return of the Barclays Global Aggregate Bond Index. All sectors within the BofA ML U.S. High Yield Master II Index recorded positive returns for the reporting period, led by banking and insurance. Developed market high yield sectors outside the U.S., including those in Europe/UK and Canada, as measured by the BofA ML European Issuers Constrained Index and the BofA ML Canada High Yield Index, respectively, also recorded positive returns over the reporting period. Within the global investment-grade fixed income universe, developed market government bonds broadly sold off in November and December 2013 in response to stronger U.S. economic data, a bipartisan budget deal in the U.S. Congress to avert another government shutdown, and the Fed’s surprise decision to begin tapering. The first quarter of 2014, however, marked a reversal in trend as core government bonds strengthened due to concerns over the tightening of global liquidity, weaker U.S. economic data, and fears of the conflict in Ukraine.

Outlook

In our opinion, “rotation” may be an accurate one-word description of the current global investment environment. Over the first several months of 2014, investors rotated away from developed markets and into emerging markets, and switched out of the big gainers from 2013 and into the current market laggards. Bond markets have regained some of last year’s losses at the expense of equities. The pursuit of growth has been replaced by the search for value and quality income. Similar trends can be seen at a sector level within equity markets. Last year’s highly sought-after biotechnology and smaller companies eventually hit valuations that prompted investors to switch into other less fashionable and less expensive sectors. Overall, we believe recent trends are a healthy response to pockets of overvaluation where prices became disconnected from the fundamental outlook. We think that the nature of expanding equity valuations that are not supported by earnings growth is unsustainable. Many of the trends we are seeing come back to the unusual monetary conditions we have lived through since the financial crisis of 2008. Ultra-low interest rates in the U.S., UK and Europe, along with the use of quantitative easing, have led to distortions in asset prices and investment behavior, in our view. Withdrawing such massive stimuli and returning to more normal monetary conditions is proving a slow, grinding process. Given that background, we believe that equity and bond markets could churn around at these levels in the near term, especially given the ongoing uncertainty over the political situation in Ukraine.

Semi-Annual Report 2014

Aberdeen Global Select Opportunities Fund Inc. (Unaudited)

The Aberdeen Global Select Opportunities Fund Inc. (Class A shares at net asset value (NAV) net of fees) returned 5.24% for the six-month period ended April 30, 2014, versus the 5.28% return of its primary benchmark, the MSCI All Country World Index, during the same period. The MSCI World Index, the Fund’s secondary benchmark, returned 6.61% for the six-month period ended April 30, 2014. For broader comparison, the average return of the Fund’s Lipper peer category of Global Large-Cap Growth Funds (consisting of 103 funds) was 4.44% for the period.

Global equities, as measured by the MSCI World Index, rose during the reporting period, with developed markets generally outperforming their emerging market peers, as represented by the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. Market sentiment was lifted by the European Central Bank’s (ECB) unexpected benchmark interest rate cut by 25 basis points to 0.25%, as well as improved economic data. The middle of the period saw increased risk aversion, fueled by renewed turmoil in emerging economies, mixed U.S. and Chinese data, and the start of the U.S. Federal Reserve’s (Fed) continued tapering of its asset purchase program. In particular, emerging markets currencies suffered a sharp sell-off. The commitment by Fed Chairperson Janet Yellen to maintain loose monetary policy reassured investors to an extent, though that gave way to fears that the Fed may hike interest rates earlier than expected. However, confidence strengthened after the ECB signalled that it was open to further monetary policy easing. Overall, Japan was the main global market laggard, a contrast to its stellar performance in 2013. The Japanese stock market was largely weighed down by concerns over the impact of the consumption tax hike on domestic demand. The nation’s lackluster fourth-quarter 2013 gross domestic product (GDP) growth of 0.3% gave rise to growth fears as well. Investors were also disappointed that the central bank kept its monetary policy stance unchanged and refrained from increasing economic stimulus.

The Fund’s holding in Royal Dutch Shell was among the main contributors to Fund performance for the reporting period. The energy group posted solid first-quarter 2014 results, boosted by its gas division, while shareholders were rewarded with a higher dividend. Additionally, investors were relieved when the energy group cancelled its plan to build a plant in the U.S., which was seen as capital-intensive and risky. Retail drugstore operator and pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) CVS Caremark’s shares rallied after the company boosted its dividend and approved a share buyback for as much as $6 billion. Separately, CVS secured several new contracts for its PBM business, while its purchase of drug-infusion company Coram was generally viewed by investors as a positive for its competiveness. Enterprise software company Oracle Corp. released consistently healthy results during the reporting period, bolstered by good growth in software licenses and engineered systems, while business was robust in North America and Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region.

The top detractors from Fund performance for the reporting period included Brazilian miner Vale, which was hurt by lower iron ore prices, while shares of QBE Insurance fell after the company forecast a net loss of US$250 million for calendar year 2013. This followed a strategic review of its North American operations, which resulted in additional provisions for claims, restructuring charges and a goodwill write-down, which totalled US$1.93 billion. The stock later recouped earlier losses after the company’s first-quarter 2014 results presented no surprises. Lender Standard Chartered’s full-year 2013 profits fell for the first time in over a decade on the back of a write-down in its South Korean business, slowing growth in emerging markets and rising bad loans. Reassuringly, in our opinion, the bank’s capital adequacy ratio remains robust, allaying for now market worries over its capital position. Over the long term, we believe that its prospects in emerging markets remain bright.

During the reporting period, we exited the position in Verizon Communications, which the Fund received from the return of cash and shares from Vodafone after it sold its stake in the Verizon Wireless joint venture.

As we move into the second quarter of 2014, we feel that little has changed at the corporate level. In our opinion, the absence of revenue growth, a lack of internal investment and signs that productivity gains are rolling over raises the question of the sustainability of above-average operating margins. While uncertainty remains, we are focused on managing capital conservatively by investing in what we believe are well-managed businesses at attractive valuations.

Risk Considerations

Investing in mutual funds involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. There is no assurance that the investment objective of any fund will be achieved.

Foreign securities are more volatile, harder to price and less liquid than U.S. securities. They are subject to different accounting and regulatory standards, and political and economic risks. These risks are enhanced in emerging markets countries.

Equity stocks of small and mid-cap companies carry greater risk, and more volatility than equity stocks of larger, more established companies.

Please read the prospectus for more detailed information regarding these and other risks.

2014 Semi-Annual Report

Aberdeen Select International Equity Fund (Unaudited)

Aberdeen Select International Equity Fund (Class A shares at net asset value net of fees) returned 4.43% for the 12-month period ended October 31, 2013, versus 2.91% for its benchmark, the MSCI All Country World ex-U.S. Index, during the same period. For broader comparison, the average return of the Fund’s Lipper peer category of International Multi-Cap Growth Funds (consisting of 160 funds) was 2.64% for the period.

International equities, as measured by the MSCI All Country World ex-U.S. Index, rose during the reporting period, with developed markets generally outperforming their emerging market peers, as represented by the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. Market sentiment was lifted by the European Central Bank (ECB)’s unexpected benchmark interest rate cut by 25 basis points to 0.25%, as well as improved economic data. The middle of the period saw increased risk aversion, fuelled by renewed turmoil in emerging economies, mixed U.S. and Chinese data, and the start of the U.S. Federal Reserve’s (Fed) continued tapering of its asset purchase program. In particular, emerging markets currencies suffered a sharp sell-off. The commitment by Fed Chairperson Janet Yellen to maintain loose monetary policy reassured investors to an extent, though that gave way to fears that the Fed may hike interest rates earlier than expected. However, confidence strengthened after the ECB signalled that it was open to further monetary policy easing. Overall, Japan was the main global market laggard, a contrast to its stellar performance in 2013. The Japanese stock market was largely weighed down by concerns over the impact of the consumption tax hike on domestic demand. The nation’s lackluster fourth-quarter 2013 gross domestic product (GDP) growth of 0.3% gave rise to growth fears as well. Investors were also disappointed that the central bank kept its monetary policy stance unchanged and refrained from increasing economic stimulus.

The main contributors to Fund performance for the reporting period were engineering solutions provider Weir Group, Royal Dutch Shell and Swiss drugmaker Novartis. Weir Group was buoyed by results that highlighted margin support from the aftermarket business, coupled with improving prospects in the units serving the oil and gas markets. Royal Dutch Shell posted solid first-quarter 2014 results, boosted by its gas division, while shareholders were rewarded with a higher dividend. Additionally, investors were relieved when the energy group cancelled its plan to build a plant in the U.S., which was seen as capital-intensive and risky. Shares of Novartis climbed after the company announced a significant three-way transaction with GlaxoSmithKline (GSK): GSK will sell its oncology portfolio to Novartis for US$16 billion, acquire Novartis’s vaccines business for US$5.25 billion, and both companies will combine their consumer health and over-the-counter drug businesses under a new company. Novartis will also sell its animal health business to Eli Lilly for roughly US$5.4 billion. We feel that these transactions should allow Novartis to bolster its best businesses and exit weaker ones.

The top detractors from Fund performance included Brazilian miner Vale, which was hurt by lower iron ore prices, while shares of QBE Insurance fell after the company forecast a net loss of US$250 million for calendar year 2013. This followed a strategic review of its North American operations, which resulted in additional loan loss provisions, restructuring charges and a goodwill* write-down, which totalled US$1.93 billion. The stock later recouped earlier losses after the company’s first-quarter 2014 results presented no surprises. Lender Standard Chartered’s full-year 2013 profits fell for the first time in over a decade on the back of a write-down in its South Korean business, slowing growth in emerging markets and rising bad loans. Reassuringly, in our view, the bank’s capital adequacy ratio remains robust, allaying for now market worries over its capital position. Over the long term, we believe that its prospects in emerging markets remain bright.

During the reporting period, we initiated a position in Singapore conglomerate Jardine Matheson, which we feel has an attractive collection of assets, as well as UK credit and marketing services company Experian, the largest international operator in a growing industry. Conversely, we sold Verizon Communications, which the Fund received as a spin-off from holding Vodafone.

Semi-Annual Report 2014

Aberdeen Select International Equity Fund II (Unaudited)

The Aberdeen Select International Equity Fund II (Class A shares at net asset value net of fees) returned 4.56% for the six-month period ended April 30, 2014, versus the 2.91% return of its benchmark, the MSCI All Country World ex-U.S. Index, during the same period. For broader comparison, the average return of the Fund’s Lipper peer category of International Large-Cap Growth Funds (consisting of 160 funds) was 2.64% for the period.

International equities, as measured by the MSCI All Country World ex-U.S. Index, rose during the reporting period, with developed markets generally outperforming their emerging market peers, as represented by the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. Market sentiment was lifted by the European Central Bank’s (ECB) unexpected benchmark interest rate cut by 25 basis points to 0.25%, as well as improved economic data. The middle of the period saw increased risk aversion, fueled by renewed turmoil in emerging economies, mixed U.S. and Chinese data, and the start of the U.S. Federal Reserve’s (Fed) continued tapering of its asset purchase program. In particular, emerging markets currencies suffered a sharp sell-off. The commitment by Fed Chairperson Janet Yellen to maintain loose monetary policy reassured investors to an extent, though that gave way to fears that the Fed may hike interest rates earlier than expected. However, confidence strengthened after the ECB signalled that it was open to further monetary policy easing. Overall, Japan was the main global market laggard, a contrast to its stellar performance in 2013. The Japanese stock market was largely weighed down by concerns over the impact of the consumption tax hike on domestic demand. The nation’s lackluster fourth-quarter 2013 gross domestic product (GDP) growth of 0.3% gave rise to growth fears as well. Investors were also disappointed that the central bank kept its monetary policy stance unchanged and refrained from increasing economic stimulus.

The main contributors to Fund performance for the reporting period were engineering solutions provider Weir Group, Royal Dutch Shell and Swiss drug-maker Novartis.

Royal Dutch Shell posted solid first-quarter 2014 results, boosted by its gas division, while shareholders were rewarded with a higher dividend. Additionally, investors were relieved when the energy group cancelled its plan to build a plant in the U.S., which was seen as capital-intensive and risky. Shares of Novartis climbed after the company announced a significant three-way transaction with GlaxoSmithKline (GSK): GSK will sell its oncology portfolio to Novartis for US$16 billion, acquire Novartis’s vaccines business for US$5.25 billion, and both companies will combine their consumer health and over-the-counter drug businesses under a new company. Novartis will also sell its animal health business to Eli Lilly for roughly US$5.4 billion. We feel that these transactions should allow Novartis to bolster its best businesses and exit weaker ones.

The top detractors from Fund performance included Brazilian miner Vale, which was hurt by lower iron ore prices, while shares of QBE Insurance fell after the company forecast a net loss of US$250 million for calendar year 2013. This followed a strategic review of its North American operations, which resulted in additional loan loss provisions, restructuring charges and a goodwill write-down, which totalled US$1.93 billion. The stock later recouped earlier losses after the company’s first-quarter 2014 results presented no surprises. Lender Standard Chartered’s full-year 2013 profits fell for the first time in over a decade on the back of a write-down in its South Korean business, slowing growth in emerging markets and rising bad loans. Reassuringly, in our view, the bank’s capital adequacy ratio remains robust, allaying for now market worries over its capital position. Over the long term, we believe that its prospects in emerging markets remain bright.

Semi-Annual Report 2014

Aberdeen Total Return Bond Fund (Unaudited)

The Aberdeen Total Return Bond Fund (Class A shares at net asset value net of fees) returned 1.92% for the six-month period ended April 30, 2014, versus the 1.74% return of its benchmark, the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, for the same period. For broader comparison, the average return of the Fund’s Lipper peer category of Core Bond Funds (consisting of 536 funds) was 2.07% for the period.

The U.S. investment-grade fixed income market, as measured by the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, produced positive returns over the reporting period. Spreads tightened across all spread sectors which helped to offset some of the negative drag from slightly higher rates. Interest rates generally tracked investor expectations concerning the tapering of the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) quantitative easing program. In December 2013, the Fed began to reduce its purchases of U.S. Treasury and agency mortgage-backed securities by $10 billion ($5 billion each). The market’s initial reaction was to ratchet rates higher in late 2013. However, once investors began to assess the predictability and impact of the taper approach, rate volatility subsided. By the end of the reporting period, rates were modestly higher compared to their levels on October 31, 2013 for all maturities of the U.S. Treasury yield curve, with the exception of the 30-year bond, which was incrementally lower. The 10- and 30-year Treasury yields stood at 2.65% and 3.46%, respectively, at April 30, 2014. At the end of the reporting period, all of the yields along the curve were substantially higher than their levels 12 months earlier. Corporate balance sheets and income statements remain strong. There was continued strength in the U.S. housing market, although the pricing growth curve moderated over the reporting period.

Fund performance for the reporting period was bolstered by overall positioning in the U.S. market, particularly overweights relative to the benchmark Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index in investment-grade corporate bonds, non-agency mortgages and commercial mortgaged-backed securities (CMBS). These sectors performed well as credit spreads tightened relative to their respective comparable-duration U.S. Treasury counterparts during the period. The Fund’s duration underweight relative to the benchmark in the U.S. also contributed to performance. More importantly, in our opinion, the underweight in the U.S. is in the part of the yield curve that historically will underperform in a rising rate environment: the “belly” of the yield curve.

The most notable detractor from Fund performance for the period was our currency-hedged bond position in Brazil. The foreign government bond positioning in countries such as Mexico and Brazil also experienced some underperformance as yields moved wider relative to comparable-duration U.S. Treasuries over the period.

Regarding the use of derivatives during the reporting period, we used Treasury futures to manage the Fund’s overall curve and interest rate exposure, and we employed currency forwards to hedge some of the Fund’s foreign exchange holdings. While the Fund used derivatives during the six months ended April 30, 2014, they had minimal impact on performance.

During the reporting period, we reduced the Fund’s positions in non-dollar assets and CMBS. We increased the exposure to U.S. Treasuries and Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities. At the end of the period on April 30, 2014, the Fund was most overweight relative to the benchmark the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index in ABS, CMBS and non-agency mortgages. Additionally, there was a sizeable position in non-dollar assets, which are not represented in the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. Conversely, the most notable underweights included U.S. Treasuries and agency mortgage-backed securities. Our view is that rates should drift upward as the Fed continues on its path of reducing bond purchases. We believe that slowly removing the largest buyer of both U.S. Treasuries and mortgages should be the main catalyst for higher rates – a more likely scenario than the robust recovery that will force rates higher.¹

The most recent economic data continue to point to a mixed picture for the U.S. economy but one that seems to be improving…a little bit. At times it exhibits some real progress, while at other times the data continue to show some real weakness that we believe may point to structural issues this recovery is experiencing as a result of the credit crisis. These include the retirement of the “Baby Boomers,” women dropping out of the labor force, too much debt, and underemployment. Even if we get a rebound in gross domestic product (GDP) growth to 4% in the second quarter of 2014, as some optimistic economists suggest, that still means that growth in the first six months of 2014 will be only 2%.¹ In our view, this still appears to be a subpar recovery since the first quarter of 2009. Nonetheless, we believe that global economic growth may pick up in the second half of 2014, and volatility may potentially increase from policy uncertainty.¹

Despite the fact that we believe the U.S. economy feels like it is improving, there does appear to be a disconnect between what the equity market and the bond market are telling us. We think that something has to give. Either the bond market is right with 10-year U.S. Treasury yields at 2.6% and yields will stay low and possibly move lower, or the equity market at new highs are right, and growth will accelerate as we move through the summer months and into year–end, in our opinion. We think that this conundrum may be resolved in the next few months as more data are released and we move through earnings season. We continue to favor spread sectors in the current market environment.

Risk Considerations

Investing in mutual funds involves risk, including possible loss of principal. There is no assurance that the investment objective of any fund will be achieved.

Fixed income securities are subject to certain risks including, but not limited to: interest rate (changes in interest rates may cause a decline in the market value of an investment), credit (changes in the financial condition of the issuer, borrower, counterparty, or underlying collateral), prepayment (debt issuers may repay or refinance their loans or obligations earlier than anticipated), and extension (principal repayments may not occur as quickly as anticipated, causing the expected maturity of a security to increase).

Investments in asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities include additional risks of which investors should be aware including those associated with fixed income securities, as well as increased susceptibility to adverse economic developments.

Derivatives are speculative and may hurt the Fund’s performance. They present the risk of disproportionately increased losses and/or reduced gains when the financial asset or measure to which the derivative is linked changes in unexpected ways.

Foreign securities are more volatile, harder to price and less liquid than U.S. securities and are subject to different accounting and regulatory standards, and political and economic risks. These risks are enhanced in emerging markets countries.

Municipal securities can be affected by adverse tax, legislative or political changes and the financial condition of the issuers of municipal securities.

Please read the prospectus for more detailed information regarding these and other risks.

The BofA Merrill Lynch Global High Yield Constrained Index (not hedged to U.S. Dollars), the Fund’s prior benchmark, returned 5.23% for the six-month period ended April 30, 2014. For broader comparison, the average return of the Fund’s Lipper peer category of High Yield Funds (consisting of 609 funds) was 4.09% for the period.

The global high yield market performed well for the six-month period ended April 30, 2014. The BofA Merrill Lynch Global High Yield Constrained Index (hedged to U.S. Dollars) recorded a total return of 5.19%, outperforming global investment-grade bonds, as represented by the Barclays Global Aggregate Bond Index,¹ and the U.S. high yield market, as measured by the BofA Merrill Lynch U.S. High Yield Master II Index,² which returned 2.10% and 4.76%, respectively, for the same period. However, the global high yield sector underperformed relative to the U.S. broader equity market benchmark, the S&P 500^® Index,³ which returned 8.36% for the six-month period. High yield sectors outside the U.S. in developed markets, such as those in Europe/United Kingdom (UK) and Canada, also recorded positive returns over the reporting period. The Europe/UK and Canadian high yield sectors posted corresponding gains of 4.49% and 6.34%, respectively, for the period, while the U.S. market returned 4.76%.⁴ Emerging markets (EM) sovereigns and EM corporates returned 2.69% and 5.56%, respectively.⁴

The global high yield market generated this strong performance despite the fact that the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) announced in December 2013 that it would begin reducing its purchases of government and mortgage-backed bonds by $10 million ($5 million for each asset class) in January. The market’s initial reaction was to ratchet rates higher in late 2013. However, once investors began to assess the predictability and impact of the taper approach, rate volatility subsided. By the end of the reporting period, rates were modestly higher compared to their levels on October 31, 2013 for all maturities of the U.S. Treasury yield curve, with the exception of the 30-year bond, which was incrementally lower.

Default activity in the global high yield market over the reporting period remained relatively benign until April 2014, when electric utility TXU’s much-anticipated default finally occurred, affecting $16.6 billion in bonds and $19.5 billion in institutional loans. This caused the U.S. high yield par-weighted default rate to surge from 0.61% to 2.15%. On an issuer-weighted basis, however, defaults in the U.S. market moved up slightly in April, from 1.61% to 1.75%. Default rates in both Europe and in emerging markets continued to trend lower.

During the reporting period, Fund performance benefited mainly from positive security selection across all sectors. Some specific areas that contributed to results would include an Irish telecom company, a European satellite company and an Australian Uranium miner. There was particular strength in the Fund’s positions in U.S. high yield loans and European high yield bonds, as well as the relatively small position in emerging market sovereigns. Fund performance also was bolstered by our continued underweight of BB rated issues in favor of both B and CCC rated issues.⁵

Conversely, there were several detractors from Fund performance for the period. Firstly, the underweight to the developed European high yield sector was a slight drag on results as rates moved sharply lower across Europe, driving investors into “risk assets” such as the high yield market. In addition, our hedge of euros in this sector, which is denominated in local currency, also was a slight detractor. Secondly, holdings in Russia also had a negative impact on Fund performance amid a downturn in that market attributable to fears of a wider economic fallout from an extended standoff between Russia and the West over Ukraine. We subsequently reduced the Fund’s exposure to Russia late in the period.

The Barclays Global Aggregate Bond Index provides a broad-based measure of the global investment-grade fixed-rate debt markets. The Barclays Global Aggregate Index comprises primarily three major components: the U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, the Pan-European Aggregate Index, and the Asian-Pacific Aggregate Index. In addition to securities from these three benchmarks, the Barclays Global Aggregate Bond Index includes Global Treasury, Eurodollar, Euro-Yen, Canadian, and Investment-Grade 144A index-eligible securities not already in the three regional aggregate indexes. Indexes are unmanaged and have been provided for comparison purposes only. No fees or expenses are reflected. You cannot invest directly in an index.

The BofA ML U.S. High Yield Master II Index tracks the performance of below-investment-grade U.S. Dollar-denominated corporate bonds issued in the U.S. domestic market.

The S&P 500 Index is an index of 500 selected common stocks, most of which are listed on the New York Stock Exchange, that is a measure of the U.S. stock market as a whole.

European/UK high yield is represented by the BofA Merrill Lynch Global High Yield European Issuers Constrained Index; Canadian high yield is represented by the BofA Merrill Lynch Canada High Yield Index; emerging markets sovereigns are represented by the BofA Merrill Lynch Global Emerging Markets Sovereign Index; and emerging markets high yield corporates are represented by the BofA Merrill Lynch U.S. High Yield Emerging Markets Corporate Plus Index.

The BofA Merrill Lynch Global High Yield European Issuers Constrained Index contains all securities in the BofA Merrill Lynch Global High Yield European Issuers High Yield Index but caps issuer exposure at 3%. Index constituents are capitalization-weighted, based on their current amount outstanding, provided the total allocation to an individual issuer does not exceed 3%.

The BofA Merrill Lynch Canada High Yield Index tracks the performance of Canadian dollar-denominated below-investment-grade corporate debt publicly issued in the Canadian domestic market. Qualifying securities must have a below-investment-grade rating (based on an average of Moody’s, S&P and Fitch). Credit ratings, which typically range from AAA/Aaa (highest) to D (lowest), are assigned by credit rating agencies such as Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s and/or Fitch, as an indication of the ability of an issuer, such as a corporation or state or city government, to meet its financial obligations in full and on time.

The BofA Merrill Lynch Global Emerging Markets Sovereign Index tracks the performance of U.S. Dollar- and euro-denominated below-investment-grade sovereign debt.

The BofA Merrill Lynch High Yield U.S. Emerging Markets Corporate Plus Index tracks the performance of U.S. dollar-denominated below investment grade emerging markets corporate debt publicly issued in the U.S. domestic or eurobond market.

Standard & Poor’s credit ratings express the agency’s opinion about the ability and willingness of an issuer, such as a corporation or state or city government, to meet its financial obligations in full and on time. Typically, ratings are expressed as letter grades that range, for example, from “AAA” to “D” to communicate the agency’s opinion of relative level of credit risk. Ratings from “AA” to “CCC” may be modified by the addition of a plU.S. (+) or minU.S. (-) sign to show relative standing within the major rating categories.

2014 Semi-Annual Report

Aberdeen Global High Income Fund (Unaudited) (concluded)

Regarding the use of derivatives during the reporting period, the fund used CDX (a basket of credit derivatives) to hedge overall beta risk. We also employed individual credit default swaps to hedge individual exposures as well as to initiate new long positions that are more efficient than the cash market.

During the reporting period, we increased the Fund’s exposure to the media sector and reduced the positions in the basic industry and automotive sectors. Regarding geographic allocations, we expanded the Fund’s positions in the Developed Europe region and EM, while decreasing the exposure to the U.S. At the end of the reporting period, the Fund’s largest absolute regional weightings were in the U.S., EM and Developed Europe, and in the energy, media and basic industry sectors. We believe that BB rated credits in the long end of the yield curve, as well as senior secured exit financings of restructured companies, are offering value along with pockets of industries and credits where market sentiment is overly negative. We maintain our focus on emerging market credits despite the difficult macroeconomic and political environments.

The most recent economic data continue to point to a mixed picture for the U.S. economy but one that seems to be improving…a little bit. At times it exhibits some real progress while at other times the data continues to show some real weakness that we believe may point to structural issues that this recovery is experiencing as a result of the credit crisis. These include retiring of the “Baby Boomers,” women dropping out of the labor force, too much debt, and underemployment. Even if we get a rebound in gross domestic product (GDP) growth to 4% in the second quarter of 2014, as some optimistic economists suggest, that still means that growth in the first six months of 2014 will be only 2%.⁶ In our view, this continues to look like a subpar recovery by any measure. However, we think that this subpar recovery will continue to produce good results for the global high yield sector relative to other asset classes.⁶

Risk Considerations

Investing in mutual funds involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. There is no assurance that the investment objective of any fund will be achieved.

Additionally, high-yield securities may face additional risks, including economic growth; inflation; liquidity; supply; and externally generated shocks (stress factors emanating from outside the U.S. market).

The Fund’s investments in high-yield bonds (commonly referred to as “junk bonds”) and other lower-rated securities will subject the Fund to substantial risk of loss. Investments in high-yield bonds are speculative and issuers of these securities are generally considered to be less financially secure and less able to repay interest and principal than issuers of investment-grade securities. Prices of high-yield bonds tend to be very volatile. These securities are less liquid than investment-grade debt securities and may be difficult to price or sell, particularly in times of negative sentiment toward high-yield securities.

Foreign securities are more volatile, harder to price and less liquid than U.S. securities; and are subject to different accounting and regulatory standards, and political and economic risks. These risks are enhanced in emerging markets countries.

Please read the prospectus for more detailed information regarding these and other risks.

Forecasts and estimates are offered as opinion and are not reflective of potential performance, are not guaranteed and actual events or results may differ materially.

2014 Semi-Annual Report

Aberdeen Global High Income Fund (Unaudited)

Performance of a $10,000 Investment (as of April 30, 2014)

LOGO

Comparative performance of $10,000 invested in Class A shares of the Aberdeen Global High Income Fund, BofA Merrill Lynch Global High Yield Constrained Index (hedged to the U.S. Dollar), the BofA Merrill Lynch Global High Yield Constrained Index (not hedged to the U.S. Dollar) and the Consumer Price Index (CPI) over a 10-year period ended April 30, 2014. Unlike the Fund, the returns for these unmanaged indexes do not reflect any fees or expenses. Investors cannot invest directly in market indexes.

The BofA Merrill Lynch Global High Yield Constrained Index (hedged to the U.S. Dollar) tracks the performance of below investment grade bonds of corporate issuers domiciled in countries having an investment grade foreign currency long term debt rating (based on a composite of Moody’s and S&P). The BofA Merrill Lynch Global High Yield Constrained Index (not hedged to the U.S. Dollar) tracks the performance of below investment grade bonds of corporate issuers domiciled in countries having an investment grade foreign currency long-term debt rating (based on a composite of Moody’s, S&P and Fitch). The indexes are weighted by outstanding issuance, but constrained such that the percentage of any one issuer may not represent more than 2% of the indexes. Effective with the 2014 prospectus, the BofA Merrill Lynch Global High Yield Constrained Index (hedged to the U.S. Dollar) became the Fund’s primary benchmark. Previously, the Fund’s average annual total returns were compared to the returns of the same index without hedging to the U.S. Dollar. The Adviser believes that the average annual total returns of the BofA Merrill Lynch Global High Yield Constrained Index (hedged to the U.S. Dollar) makes a more meaningful comparison index given the Fund’s investment strategy and composition.

The CPI represents changes in prices of all goods and services purchased for consumption by urban households.

Implied credit spreads, represented in absolute terms, are utilized in determining the market value of credit default swaps agreements on corporate issues or sovereign issues and serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood or risk of default for the credit derivative. The implied credit spread of a particular referenced entity reflects the cost of buying/selling protection and may include upfront payments required to be made prior to entering into the agreement. For credit default swaps with asset-backed securities or credit indices as the underlying assets, the quoted market prices and resulting market values serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk. Wider credit spreads and increasing market values, in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the reference entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.

2014 Semi-Annual Report

Notes to Financial Statements

April 30, 2014 (Unaudited)

1. Organization

Aberdeen Investment Funds (the “Trust”) was organized as a business trust under the laws of the State of Massachusetts by a Master Trust Agreement adopted on April 30, 1992 and is registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) as an open-end management investment company. As of April 30, 2014, the Trust offered four diversified, open-ended investment funds: Aberdeen Select International Equity Fund (the “Select International Equity Fund”), Aberdeen Select International Equity Fund II (the “Select International Equity Fund II”), Aberdeen Total Return Bond Fund (the “Total Return Bond Fund”), and Aberdeen Global High Income Fund (the “Global High Income Fund”).

Aberdeen Global Select Opportunities Fund Inc. (the “Global Select Opportunities Fund”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Maryland on May 23, 1990 and is registered with the SEC under the 1940 Act as a diversified, open-end management investment company.

Each of the Funds offers multiple share classes. As of April 30, 2014, all of the Funds offered Class A and Institutional Class shares. The classes of shares are offered to different types of investors and have different expense structures, as outlined in the Funds’ prospectus. 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.

On December 12, 2013, the Funds’ Board of Trustees and Board of Directors approved changing the name of Class I Shares of the Trust and the Global Select Opportunities Fund to Institutional Class Shares, effective with the 2014 prospectus. Fees and expenses associated with Class I Shares were not impacted as a result of the change in name to Institutional Class Shares.

Each Fund has distinct investment objectives. Following are the objectives for the Funds:


Fund Name		Investment Objective
Global Select Opportunities Fund		Seeks to maximize total return, principally through capital appreciation.
Select International Equity Fund		Seeks long term growth of capital.
Select International Equity Fund II		Seeks long term growth of capital.
Total Return Bond Fund		Seeks to provide total return, which consists of two components: (1) changes in the market value of the Fund’s portfolio securities (both realized and unrealized appreciation/depreciation) and (2) income received from its portfolio securities.
Global High Income Fund		Seeks to maximize total return, principally through a high level of current income, and secondarily through capital appreciation.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. The policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of income and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. Dollars.

(a)

Security Valuation

The Funds value their securities at current market value or fair value consistent with the Funds’ valuation procedures and regulatory requirements.

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 ask 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 Select Opportunities Fund’s Board of Directors, and the Trust’s Board of Trustees (each, a “Board” and collectively, the “Boards”), as applicable. The pricing services may use valuation models or matrix pricing, which consider yield or prices with respect to comparable bond

Semi-Annual Report 2014

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

April 30, 2014 (Unaudited)

quotations from bond dealers or by reference to other securities that are considered comparable in such characteristics as credit rating, interest rates and maturity date, to determine current fair value.

Assets and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currency 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, which approximates fair value. To the extent each Fund invests in other open-end funds, the Fund will calculate its Net Asset Value (“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 good faith fair value pricing and the effects of such fair value pricing.

When market quotations or exchange rates are not readily available, or if the Funds’ investment adviser, Aberdeen Asset Management Inc. (the “Adviser”), concludes 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 readily available market quotations, prices provided by independent pricing services, or by using modeling tools provided by industry accepted financial data service providers. Key inputs to such tools may include yield and prices from comparable or reference assets, maturity or expiration dates, ratings, and interest rates. 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.

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. This is generally accomplished by adjusting the closing price for movements in correlated indices, securities or derivatives. 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 Fund’s NAV. Certain Funds may fair value securities in other situations, for example, when a particular foreign market is closed but the Funds are pricing their shares.

In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the Funds disclose the fair value of their investments using a three-level hierarchy that classifies the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The hierarchy assigns Level 1 measurements to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets, Level 2 measurements to valuations, based upon significant observable inputs, including adjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets, and Level 3 measurements to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation. 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 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 asset or liability, which are 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 market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized below:

•

Level 1- quoted prices in active markets for identical investments;

•

Level 2- other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, and credit risk); or

•

Level 3- significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

For movements between the levels within the fair value hierarchy, the Funds have adopted a policy of recognizing transfers at the end of each period.

The Funds will fair value foreign securities when the Adviser does not believe that the closing prices are reflective of fair value due to significant events that occurred subsequent to the close of the foreign markets but before the Funds’ NAV calculations. When securities are fair valued under this method, they will be classified as Level 2 which may result in significant transfers between Level 1 and Level 2. The number of days on which fair value prices will be used depends on market activity. It is possible that fair value prices will be used by the Funds to a significant extent. Foreign securities in the Global Select Opportunities Fund, Select International Equity Fund and Select International Equity Fund II were not fair valued under this method at October 31, 2013 or April 30, 2014, resulting in no significant transfers from Level 1 to Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Evaluated Pricing: In determining the fair value of the Common Stock as of April 30, 2014, the Fund took an average of the values calculated using the Income Approach – Discounted Cash Flow Method and the Market Approach – Guideline Public Company Method, weighted equally, to derive an evaluated price.

Income Approach: A well-established technique used to estimate the equity value of a company through an analysis of projected income, such as using the Discounted Cash Flow Method. Using this analysis, value is indicated from all of the future cash flows attributable to the subject company discounted to present value at a required rate of return. If debt free cash flows are used, any long-term debt is deducted from the indicated value of the invested capital to determine equity value.

Market Approach: References actual transactions in the equity of the enterprise being valued or transactions in similar enterprises that are traded in private and public markets. Third-party transactions in the equity of an entity generally represent the best estimate of fair value if they are completed at arm’s length. The Guideline Public Company Method involves identifying and selecting publicly traded companies with financial and operating characteristics similar to the company being valued. Once publicly traded companies are identified, valuation multiples can be derived, adjusted for comparability, and then applied to the subject company to estimate the value of its equity or invested capital. Similarly, the Comparable Transactions Method analyzes transactions involving target companies operating in industries similar to the subject company. While it is known that no two companies are exactly alike, nor are any two transactions structured identically, consideration is given to comparisons of the capital structure, operations, size, and profitability, as well as other operating characteristics of the target companies. Once comparable transactions for reasonable targets are identified, valuation multiples can be derived, adjusted for comparability, and then applied to the subject company to estimate the value of its equity or invested capital.

(b)

Repurchase Agreements

The Funds may enter into repurchase agreements, under the terms of a Master Repurchase Agreement. It is each Fund’s policy that its custodian/counterparty segregate the underlying collateral securities, the value of which exceeds the principal amount of the repurchase transaction, including accrued interest. The repurchase price generally equals the price paid by a Fund plus interest negotiated on the basis of current short-term rates. To the extent that any repurchase transaction exceeds one business day, the collateral is valued on a daily basis to determine its adequacy. If the counterparty defaults and the value of the collateral declines or if bankruptcy proceedings are commenced with respect to the counterparty of the security, realization of the collateral by the Funds may be delayed or limited. Repurchase agreements are subject to contractual netting arrangements with the counterparty, Fixed Income Clearing Corp. For additional information on individual repurchase agreements, see the schedules of investments.

(c)

Restricted Securities

Restricted securities are privately-placed securities whose resale is restricted under U.S. securities laws. The Funds may invest in restricted securities, including unregistered securities eligible for resale without registration pursuant to Rule 144A and privately-placed securities of U.S. and non-U.S. issuers offered outside the U.S. without registration pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Rule 144A securities may be freely traded among certain qualified institutional investors, such as the Funds, but resale of such securities in the U.S. is permitted only in limited circumstances.

(d)

Foreign Currency Translation

Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. Dollars at the current rate of exchange as of 11:00am Eastern time for Global Select Opportunities Fund, Select International Equity Fund, and Select International Equity Fund II and as of 4:00pm Eastern time for Global High Income Fund and Total Return Bond (“Valuation Time”), to determine the value of investments, assets and liabilities. Purchases and sales of securities, and income and expenses are translated at the prevailing rate of exchange on the respective date of these transactions. The Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. These fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments and foreign currencies within the Statements of Operations.

Foreign securities, currencies, and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. Dollars at the exchange rate of said currencies against the U.S. Dollar, as of the Valuation Time, as provided by an independent pricing service.

Investments in emerging markets can be riskier and more volatile than investments in the United States and other developed markets. Adverse political and economic developments can make it more difficult for the Global Select Opportunities Fund, Select International Equity Fund, and Select International Equity Fund II to sell foreign securities which could reduce the NAV of the Funds. In contrast to more established markets, emerging markets may have governments that are less stable and markets that are less liquid, increasing your investment risk. At April 30, 2014, the Select International Equity Fund had 0.2% of its net assets invested in Venezuelan securities and held Venezuelan Bolivar valued at 0.1% of the Select International Equity Fund’s net assets. Venezuela currently imposes foreign exchange controls which prohibit the Select International Equity Fund from repatriating dividends, interest, or other income from investments or proceeds from the sale of Venezuelan securities.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Funds are authorized to use derivatives to manage currency risk, credit risk, and interest rate risk and to replicate, or use as a substitute for, physical securities. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the contract or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract. The use of derivative instruments involves, to varying degrees, elements of market risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts

A forward foreign currency exchange contract (“forward contract”) involves an obligation to purchase and sell a specific currency at a future date, which may be any fixed number of days from the date of the contract agreed upon by the parties, at a price set at the time of the contract. Forward contracts are used to manage a Fund’s currency exposure in an efficient manner. They are used to sell unwanted currency exposure that comes with holding securities in a market, or to buy currency exposure where the exposure from holding securities is insufficient to give the desired currency exposure either in absolute terms or relative to the benchmark. The use of forward contracts allows the separation of decision-making between markets and their currencies. The forward contract is marked-to-market daily and the change in market value is recorded by a Fund as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Forward contracts’ prices are received daily from an independent pricing provider. When the forward contract is closed, a Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. These realized and unrealized gains and losses are reported on the Statements of Operations. During the six months ended April 30, 2014, the Funds used forward contracts for the purposes of efficient portfolio management and managing active currency risk relative to the benchmark. Managing active currency risk involves both hedging currency risk and adding currency risk in excess of underlying bond positions. A Fund may also enter into forward currency transactions to obtain potential appreciation of a foreign currency, which also adds currency risk.

Swaps

Certain Funds enter into swaps to efficiently gain or hedge interest rate or currency risk. A swap is an agreement that obligates two parties to exchange a series of cash flows at specified intervals based upon or calculated by reference to changes in specified prices or rates for a specified amount of an underlying asset or notional principal amount. A Fund will enter into swaps only on a net basis, which means that the two payment streams are netted out, with a Fund receiving or paying, as the case may be, only the net amount of the difference between the two payments. Risks may arise as a result of the failure of the counterparty to the swap contract to comply with the terms of the swap contract. The loss incurred by the failure of a counterparty is generally limited to the net interest payment to be received by a Fund, and/or the termination value at the end of the contract. Therefore, a Fund considers the creditworthiness of each counterparty to a swap contract in evaluating potential credit risk. Additionally, risks may arise from unanticipated movements in interest rates or in the value of the underlying reference asset or index. A Fund records unrealized gains/(losses) on a daily basis representing the value and the current net receivable or payable relating to open swap contracts. Net amounts received or paid on the swap contract are recorded as realized gains/(losses). Fluctuations in the value of swap contracts are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized appreciation or depreciation of swap contracts. Realized gains/(losses) from terminated swaps are included in net realized gains/(losses) on swap contracts transactions.

Certain Funds are a party to International Swap Dealers Association, Inc. Master Agreements (“ISDA Master Agreements”). These agreements are with select counterparties and they govern transactions, including certain over-the-counter derivative and foreign exchange contracts, entered into by certain Funds and the counterparty. The ISDA Master Agreements maintain provisions for general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral, and events of default or termination. The occurrence of a specified event of termination may give a counterparty the right to terminate all of its contracts and affect settlement of all outstanding transactions under the applicable ISDA Master Agreement. To the extent a Fund engages in transactions under these agreements, it is subject to counterparty risk, which is described with respect to swaps both above and below.

Effective June 10, 2013, certain swaps, including interest rate swaps, must be cleared pursuant to U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) regulations. As a result, interest rate swaps entered into by a Fund after June 10, 2013 can no longer be traded over-the-counter and became subject to various regulations and rules of the CFTC.

Credit Default Swaps

A credit default swap is a credit derivative contract between two counterparties. The buyer makes periodic payments to the seller, and in return receives protection if an underlying financial instrument defaults. A Fund might use credit default swap contracts to limit or to reduce risk exposure of the Fund to defaults of corporate and sovereign issuers (i.e., to reduce risk when the Fund owns or has exposure to such issuers). A Fund also might use credit default swap contracts to create direct or synthetic short or long exposure to domestic or foreign corporate debt securities or certain sovereign debt securities to which the Fund is not otherwise exposed. As the seller in a credit default swap contract, a Fund would be required to pay the par (or other agreed-upon) value of a referenced debt obligation to the counterparty in the event of a default (or similar event) by a third party, such as a U.S. or foreign issuer, on the debt obligation. In return, a Fund would receive from the counterparty a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract, provided that no event

Semi-Annual Report 2014

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

April 30, 2014 (Unaudited)

of default (or similar event) occurs. If no event of default (or similar event) occurs, a Fund would keep the stream of payments and would have no payment of obligations. As the seller in a credit default swap contract, a Fund effectively would add economic leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, a Fund would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. As the purchaser in a credit default swap contract, a Fund would function as the counterparty referenced in the preceding paragraph. This would involve the risk that the investment might expire worthless. It also would involve credit risk that the seller may fail to satisfy its payment obligations to a Fund in the event of a default (or similar event). As the purchaser in a credit default swap contract, a Fund’s investment would generate income only in the event of an actual default (or similar event) by the issuer of the underlying obligation. During the six month period ended April 30, 2014, credit default swaps were used in the Global High Income Fund for multiple reasons. The most common use was to gain long credit exposure via credit default swaps when the relative value of credit default swaps looks attractive versus the valuation of the corporate bonds or loans in the capital structure. The Global High Income Fund also used credit default swaps to temporarily hedge portfolio positions when necessary and permitted within the Fund guidelines. In some cases the liquidity and valuation of credit default swaps allows the Global High Income Fund to protect the downside risk of long corporate bond positions at more attractive values than if the Fund sold out of the corporate bond position and then attempted to buy the bonds back in the future.

Entering into swap agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit and market risk in excess of the amounts recognized on the Statements 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 agreement between the Funds and the counterparties and by the posting of collateral by the counterparties to the Funds to cover the Funds’ exposure to the counterparty.

For the Global High Income Fund, information about credit default swaps reflected as of the date of this report is generally indicative of the type and volume of activity for the five months ended April 30, 2014. In December 2013, the Fund entered into a credit default swap with a notional value of 31,660,000. The quarterly average notional values for the Fund’s credit default swaps were as follows:


Quarter	Weighted Average Notional Value
1^st Quarter	$	131,136,667
2^nd Quarter		141,690,000

The Funds value derivatives at fair value, as described in this note, and recognize changes in fair value currently in the results of operations. Accordingly, the Funds do not follow hedge accounting even for derivatives employed as economic hedges.

(f)

Bank Loans

The Global High Income Fund may invest in bank loans. Bank loans include floating and fixed-rate debt obligations. Floating rate loans are debt obligations issued by companies or other entities with floating interest rates that reset periodically. Floating rate loans are secured by specific collateral of the borrower and are senior to most other securities of the borrower (e.g., common stock or debt instruments) in the event of bankruptcy. Floating rate loans are often issued in connection with recapitalizations, acquisitions, leveraged buyouts, and refinancings. Floating rate loans are typically structured and administered by a financial institution that acts as the agent of the lenders participating in the floating rate loan. Floating rate loans may be acquired directly through the agent, as an assignment from another lender who holds a direct interest in the floating rate loan, or as a participation interest in another lender’s portion of the floating rate loan.

The Global High Income Fund may enter into, or acquire participation in, delayed funding loans and revolving credit facilities. Delayed funding loans and revolving credit facilities are borrowings in which the Global High Income Fund agrees to make loans up to a maximum amount upon demand by the borrowing issuer for a specified term. A revolving credit facility differs from a delayed funding loan in that as the borrowing issuer repays the loan, an amount equal to the repayment is again made available to the borrowing issuer under the facility. The borrowing issuer may at any time borrow and repay amounts so long as, in the aggregate, at any given time the amount borrowed does not exceed the maximum amount established by the loan agreement. Delayed funding loans and revolving credit facilities usually provide for floating or variable rates of interest.

There are a number of risks associated with an investment in delayed funding loans and revolving credit facilities including credit, interest rate and liquidity risk and the risks of being a lender. There may be circumstances under which the borrowing issuer’s credit risk may be deteriorating and yet the Global High Income Fund may be obligated to make loans to the borrowing issuer as the borrowing issuer’s credit continues to deteriorate, including at a time when the borrowing issuer’s financial condition makes it unlikely that such amounts will be repaid. Delayed funding loans and revolving credit facilities may be subject to restrictions on transfer, and only limited opportunities may exist to resell such instruments. As a result, the Global High Income Fund may be unable to sell such investments at an opportune time or may have to resell them at less than fair market value. These risks could cause the Global High Income Fund to lose money on its investment, which in turn could affect its returns. The Global High Income Fund currently intends to treat delayed funding loans and revolving credit facilities for which there is no readily available market as illiquid for purposes of its limitation on illiquid investments. Delayed funding loans and revolving credit facilities are considered to be debt obligations for purposes of the Trust’s investment restriction relating to the lending of funds or assets by the Global High Income Fund.

At April 30, 2014, there was one unfunded commitment which amounted to $4,418,367 of par and had cost and fair value of $4,418,367 and $4,313,431, respectively.

(g)

Security Transactions, Investment Income and Expenses

Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized and unrealized gains/(losses) from security and currency transactions are calculated on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date except for certain dividends on foreign securities, which are recorded as soon as a Fund is informed after the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis using the effective interest method. Expenses are recorded on an accrual basis. Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are charged to that Fund. Expenses not directly attributable to a Fund are allocated proportionately among all Funds of the Trust. For each of the Funds, the method for allocating income, fund level expenses, and realized and unrealized gains or losses among classes is based on the total net asset value of each class’s shares in proportion to the total net assets of the Fund. Expenses specific to a class (such as Rule 12b-1 and Transfer Agent fees) are charged to that class.

(h)

Foreign taxes

Funds that invest in foreign securities are subject to foreign taxes that may be imposed by certain countries in which the Funds invest. The Funds generally record foreign taxes based on applicable foreign tax law. The Funds incur withholding taxes on certain foreign dividends and

2014 Semi-Annual Report

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

April 30, 2014 (Unaudited)

interest, and those taxes are accrued at the time the associated income is recorded. The Funds file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. The Funds record a reclaim receivable based on, among other things, a jurisdiction’s legal obligation to pay reclaims as well as payment history and market convention. In consideration of recent decisions rendered by European courts, the Aberdeen Select International Equity Fund and Aberdeen Select International Equity Fund II (the “International Equity Funds”) have filed for additional reclaims related to prior years in accordance with European Union law. However, consistent with US GAAP accrual requirements, the International Equity Funds have not recorded a corresponding receivable amount because there is limited historical precedent for US funds collecting reclaims of this magnitude and the amount of the reclaims that these funds may receive in the future, if any, is uncertain. Any amounts to which the International Equity Funds may be entitled, if and when recorded, likely would result in an increase in the net asset value per share of each fund at that time. As of April 30, 2014, the total amount of reclaims filed for the International Equity Funds in the countries that may be affected by the European courts’ decisions (namely, Spain, Finland, France, Germany, The Netherlands, and Poland) represents approximately 5% of the net asset value per share for each of the International Equity Funds; however, the recovery of any or all of this amount and timing of recovery, if any, is uncertain.

(i)

Distributions

Distributions from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid monthly for the Total Return Bond Fund and Global High Income Fund. Distributions from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid annually for the Global Select Opportunities Fund, Select International Equity Fund, and Select International Equity Fund II. The Funds will also declare and pay distributions annually from net realized gains on investment transactions and net realized foreign exchange gains, if any. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. 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 (the “Code”), for certain undistributed amounts.

Dividends and distributions to shareholders are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. 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.

(j)

Federal Income Taxes

Each Fund intends to continue to qualify as a “regulated investment company” by complying with the provisions available to certain investment companies, as defined in Subchapter M of the Code, and to make distributions of net investment income and net realized capital gains sufficient to relieve the Funds from all, or substantially all, federal income taxes. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

Management of the Funds has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the financial statements. Since tax authorities can examine previously filed tax returns, the Funds’ U.S. federal and state tax returns for each of the four fiscal years up to the most recent fiscal year ended October 31, 2013 are subject to such review.

3. Agreements and Transactions with Affiliates

(a)

Investment Adviser

Under the Investment Advisory Agreements with the Funds, effective May 22, 2013, Aberdeen Asset Management Inc. (“Aberdeen” or the “Adviser”) manages the Funds in accordance with the policies and procedures established by the Boards. Prior to May 22, 2013, the Funds were managed by Artio Global Management LLC.

For services provided under the terms of the current Investment Advisory Agreements, each Fund pays the Adviser an annual management fee paid monthly based on that Fund’s average daily net assets according to the following schedule:


Fund	Fee Schedule
Global Select Opportunities Fund		On all assets	0.900%
Select International Equity Fund		Of the first $5 billion	0.900%
		On the next $2.5 billion	0.880%

Semi-Annual Report 2014

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

April 30, 2014 (Unaudited)

The Adviser has engaged the services of Aberdeen Asset Managers Limited (the “Subadviser”), an affiliate, pursuant to the subadvisory agreements. The Subadviser manages a portion of certain of the Funds’ investments and has responsibility for making all investment decisions for the portion of a Fund’s assets that it manages. Pursuant to the subadvisory agreements, the Adviser pays fees to the Subadviser. For the six months ended April 30, 2014, the Adviser paid the following amounts to the Subadviser for its services to the respective Funds:


Fund	Amount
Global Select Opportunities Fund	$	22,879
Select International Equity Fund		1,726,229
Select International Equity Fund II		839,369

Certain of the Funds and Aberdeen have entered into written contracts (“Expense Limitation Agreements”) limiting operating expenses for all classes of each Fund from exceeding the amounts listed below. This limit excludes certain expenses, including taxes, interest, brokerage commissions, and other expenditures which are capitalized in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and other extraordinary expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business. These contracts are in effect until the earlier of (a) the termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement or (b) February 28, 2015.


Fund	Class A Limit	Institutional Class Limit
Global Select Opportunities Fund	1.40%		1.15	%
Total Return Bond Fund	0.69%		0.44	%
Global High Income Fund	1.00%		0.75	%

The Adviser has agreed to continue 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 assets. The waiver may be terminated at any time by the Funds’ Boards.

Aberdeen may request and receive reimbursement from a Fund of the advisory fees waived and other expenses reimbursed pursuant to the Expense Limitation Agreements at a later date not to exceed three years from the fiscal year in which the corresponding reimbursement to the Funds was made.

For fees waived, no reimbursement will be made unless:

(i) the total annual expense ratio of the class making such reimbursement is less than the limit set forth above; and

(ii) the payment of such reimbursement is approved by the Boards on a quarterly basis (the “Reimbursement Requirements”).

If the Boards approve any changes in the waiver terms or limitations, reimbursements are only permitted to the extent that the terms of the Expense Limitation Agreements in effect at the time of the waiver are met at the time that reimbursement is approved. Except as provided for in the Expense Limitation Agreements, reimbursement of amounts previously waived or assumed by Aberdeen is not permitted.

As of April 30, 2014, to the extent the Reimbursement Requirements are met, the cumulative potential reimbursements for each Fund, based on expenses reimbursed by Aberdeen would be:


Fund	Amount Fiscal Year 2011 (Expires 10/31/14)		Amount Fiscal Year 2012 (Expires 10/31/15)		Amount Fiscal Year 2013 (Expires 10/31/16)		Amount Six Months Ended April 30, 2014 (Expires 10/31/17)		Total*

Amounts reported are due to expire throughout the respective 3-year expiration period presented above.

Amounts

listed as “–” are $0 or round to $0.

4. Distributor and Shareholder Services

The Funds and Aberdeen Fund Distributors, LLC (the “Distributor” or “AFD”) are parties to the current Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) whereby the Distributor acts as principal underwriter for the Funds’ shares. Prior to May 22, 2013, Quasar Distributors, LLC (“Quasar”) was the Distributor of the Funds.

2014 Semi-Annual Report

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

April 30, 2014 (Unaudited)

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 Funds will adjust accruals accordingly for any unused or surplus balances on an annual basis. The Adviser may pay additional marketing and other distribution costs out of its profits.

Under its 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.

5. Investment Transactions

Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term securities) for the six months ended April 30, 2014, were as follows:

8. Portfolio Investment Risks

(a)

Market Risk

The Fund could lose value if the individual securities in which it invests or overall markets in which such securities trade decrease in value.

(b)

Foreign Securities Risk (Equity Funds)

Foreign securities may be more volatile, harder to price and less liquid than U.S. securities.

(c)

Foreign Securities Risk (Fixed Income Funds)

A Fund may invest in foreign securities which lose value because of fluctuations in currency exchange rates and market liquidity, price volatility, uncertain political and legal conditions, lack of reliable financial information and other factors. Foreign securities of certain countries are subject to political instability, which may result in potential revolts and the confiscation of assets by governments. As a result, a Fund’s returns and net asset value may be affected to a large degree by fluctuations in currency exchange rates or political or economic

Semi-Annual Report 2014

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

April 30, 2014 (Unaudited)

conditions in a particular country or region. In the event of nationalization, default, debt restructuring, capital controls, expropriation or other confiscation, a Fund could lose its entire investment in foreign securities. Adverse conditions in a certain region can adversely affect securities of other countries whose economies appear to be unrelated. To the extent that a Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in a specific geographic region, a Fund will generally have more exposure to regional economic risks associated with foreign investments.

(d)

Foreign Currency Transaction Risk

As foreign securities are usually denominated in foreign currencies, a Fund may employ strategies intended to protect the Fund’s portfolio from adverse currency fluctuations. A Fund may also employ strategies intended to increase exposure to certain currencies. Such currency transactions involve additional risks, and a Fund’s strategies, if unsuccessful, may decrease the value of a Fund.

(e)

Mortgage-Related Securities Risk

A Fund may invest in mortgage-related securities. Rising interest rates may cause an issuer to exercise its right to pay principal later than expected which tends to extend the duration of mortgage-related securities, making them more sensitive to changes in interest rates. As a result, in a period of rising interest rates, a Fund that holds mortgage-related securities may exhibit additional volatility. This is known as extension risk. In addition, mortgage-related securities are subject to prepayment risk. When interest rates decline, borrowers may pay off their mortgages sooner than expected. This can reduce the returns of a Fund because the Fund will have to reinvest that money at the lower prevailing interest rates.

(f)

Asset-Backed Securities Risk

Like traditional fixed income securities, the value of asset-backed securities typically increases when interest rates fall and decreases when interest rates rise. Certain asset-backed securities may also be subject to the risk of prepayment.

(g)

Emerging Markets Risk

A magnification of the risks that apply to foreign investments. These risks are greater for securities of companies in emerging market countries because the countries may have less stable governments, more volatile currencies and less established markets (see “Foreign Securities Risk” above).

(h)

Impact of Large Redemptions and Purchases of Fund Shares

Occasionally, shareholders may make large redemptions or purchases of Fund shares, which may cause a Fund to have to sell securities or invest additional cash. These transactions may adversely affect the Fund’s performance and increase transaction costs. In addition, large redemption requests may exceed the cash balance of a Fund and result in credit line borrowing fees or overdraft charges to the Fund until the sale of portfolio securities to cover the redemption request settle.

(i)

Securities Selection Risk

The investment team may select securities that underperform the stock market or other funds with similar investment objectives and strategies.

(j)

Mid-Cap Securities Risk

In general, stocks of mid-cap companies may be more volatile and less liquid than larger company stocks.

(k)

Small- and Mid-Cap Securities Risk

In general, stocks of small- and mid-cap companies may be more volatile and less liquid than larger company stocks.

(l)

Active Trading Risk

A Fund may engage in active and frequent trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective. If a Fund does trade this way, it may incur increased costs, which can lower the actual return of the Fund. Active trading may also increase short term gains and losses, which may affect taxes that must be paid.

(m)

Derivatives Risk

Derivatives can be highly volatile and involve risks in addition to the risks of the underlying investment, index or rate. Derivatives involve special risks including correlation, counterparty, liquidity, operational, accounting and tax risks. Investing in derivatives also requires a specific skill set and may result in losses. Derivatives may be illiquid, difficult to price and leveraged so that small changes may produce disproportionate losses. Gains or losses from derivatives can be substantially greater than the derivatives’ original cost.

(n)

Interest Rate Risk

A Fund’s fixed income investments are subject to interest rate risk, which generally causes the value of a fixed income portfolio to decrease when interest rates rise resulting in a decrease in the Fund’s net assets. The Fund may be subject to a greater risk of rising interest rates due to the current period of historically low rates and the effect of potential government fiscal policy initiatives and resulting market reaction to

2014 Semi-Annual Report

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

April 30, 2014 (Unaudited)

those initiatives. Interest rate fluctuations tend to have a greater impact on fixed income-securities with a greater time to maturity and/or lower coupon. In periods of market volatility, the market values of fixed income securities may be more sensitive to changes in interest rates.

(o)

Leverage Risk

Certain transactions may give rise to a form of leverage. Such transactions may include, among others, loans of securities, and the use of when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment transactions. The use of derivatives may also cause leveraging risk.

(p)

Liquidity Risk

Particular investments may be difficult to purchase or sell such as fixed income securities which have not received any credit ratings, below investment grade securities (i.e., “junk bonds”) or securities that are not widely held. A Fund may make investments that may become less liquid in response to market developments or adverse investor perceptions, which may reduce the returns of the Fund because it may be unable to sell the illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price. Increased market volatility may adversely affect the liquidity of the Fund’s portfolio securities. From time to time, as a result of significant adverse market conditions, some investments a Fund may purchase may become illiquid which may cause the Fund difficulty in meeting redemptions.

(q)

Municipal Securities Risk

A Fund may invest in municipal bonds which may be significantly affected by political and economic changes, including inflation, as well as uncertainties in the municipal market related to taxation, legislative changes, or the rights of municipal security holders. Municipal Bonds have varying levels of sensitivity to changes in interest rates. In general, the price of a Municipal Bond can fall when interest rates rise and can rise when interest rates fall. Interest rate risk is generally lower for shorter-term Municipal Bonds and higher for long term Municipal Bonds. Under certain market conditions, the Adviser may purchase Municipal Bonds that the Adviser perceives are undervalued. Undervalued Municipal Bonds are subject to the same market volatility and principal and interest rate risks described above. Lower quality Municipal Bonds involve greater risk of default or price changes due to changes in the credit quality of the issuer. The value of lower quality Municipal Bonds often fluctuates in response to political or economic developments and can decline significantly over short periods of time or during periods of general or regional economic difficulty. In the case of tax-exempt Municipal Bonds, if the Internal Revenue Service or state tax authorities determine that an issuer of a tax-exempt Municipal Bond has not complied with applicable tax requirements, interest from the security could become taxable at the federal, state and/or local level, and the security could decline significantly in value. Municipal Bonds are subject to credit or default risk. Credit risk is the risk that the issuer of a municipal security might not make interest and principal payments on the security as they become due.

(r)

Private Placements and Other Restricted Securities Risk

Investments in private placements and other restricted securities, including Regulation S Securities and Rule 144A Securities, could have the effect of increasing a Fund’s level of illiquidity. Private placements and restricted securities may be less liquid than other investments because such securities may not always be readily sold in broad public markets and a Fund might be unable to dispose of such securities promptly or at prices reflecting their true value.

(s)

Bank Loan Risk

There are a number of risks associated with an investment in bank loans including credit risk, interest rate risk, illiquid securities risk, and prepayment risk. There is also the possibility that the collateral securing a loan, if any, may be difficult to liquidate or be insufficient to cover the amount owed under the loan. These risks could cause a Fund to lose income or principal on a particular investment, which in turn could affect a Fund’s returns.

(t)

Credit Risk

Fixed income securities are subject to credit risk, which is the risk that an issuer of a bond may default on its obligation to pay or repay interest and principal. In the event of an unanticipated default, a Fund would experience a reduction in its income and could expect a decline in the market value of the securities so affected.

(u)

Delayed Funding Loans and Revolving Credit Facilities Risk

(v)

High-Yield Bonds and Other Lower-Rated Securities Risk

A Fund’s investments in high-yield bonds (commonly referred to as “junk bonds”) and other lower-rated securities will subject the Fund to substantial risk of loss. Investments in high-yield bonds are speculative and issuers of these securities are generally considered to be less

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

April 30, 2014 (Unaudited)

financially secure and less able to repay interest and principal than issuers of investment-grade securities. Prices of high-yield bonds tend to be very volatile. These securities are less liquid than investment-grade debt securities and may be difficult to price or sell, particularly in times of negative sentiment toward high-yield securities.

(w)

Prepayment Risk

The principal amount of the mortgages underlying a Fund’s investments in mortgage-related securities may be prepaid, generally when interest rates fall, which may cause the Fund’s income to decline.

Please read the prospectus for more detailed information regarding these and other risks.

9. Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Funds may provide general indemnifications pursuant to certain contracts and organizational documents. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Funds, and therefore, cannot be estimated; however, based on experience, the risk of loss from such claims is considered remote.

10. Tax Information

As of April 30, 2014, the tax cost of securities and the breakdown of unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) for each Fund were as follows:


	Tax Cost of Securities		Unrealized Appreciation		Unrealized Depreciation			Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation)
Global Select Opportunities Fund	$	7,257,860	$	654,153	$	(279,450	)	$	374,703

Total Return Bond Fund		1,538,079,413		31,827,214		(16,047,663	)		15,779,551
Global High Income Fund		2,674,731,422		146,920,578		(35,391,174	)		111,529,404

The tax character of distributions paid during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2013 was as follows (total distributions paid differ from the Statements of Changes in Net Assets because for tax purposes dividends are recognized when actually paid):


	Distributions paid from
Fund	Ordinary Income		Net Long Term Capital Gain		Total Taxable Distributions		Tax Exempt Distributions		Return of Capital		Total Distributions Paid
Global Select Opportunities Fund	$	187,778	$	–	$	187,778	$	–	$	–	$	187,778

As of October 31, 2013, the components of accumulated earnings (deficit) on a tax basis were as follows:


Fund	Undistributed Tax Exempt Income		Undistributed Ordinary Income		Undistributed Long-Term Capital Gains		Accumulated Earnings		Distributions Payable		Late Year Ordinary and Post- October Capital Loss Deferrals		Other Temporary Differences			Accumulated Capital and Other Losses**			Unrealized Appreciation/ Depreciation*			Total Accumulated Earnings (Deficit)

The difference between the book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) is attributable primarily to passive foreign investment companies and tax deferral of losses on wash sales, the difference between book and tax amortization methods for premium and market discounts.

As of October 31, 2013, for Federal income tax purposes, the following Funds have capital loss carryforwards available to offset capital gains, if any, to the extent provided by the Treasury regulations, which expire in the years set forth below:


Fund	Amount		Expires
Global Select Opportunities Fund	$	17,909,743		2016
Global Select Opportunities Fund		10,012,137		2017
Global Select Opportunities Fund		15,120		Unlimited Short-Term
Select International Equity Fund		314,780,611		2016
Select International Equity Fund		1,643,693,179		2017
Select International Equity Fund		279,988,563		Unlimited Long-Term
Select International Equity Fund		20,849,928		Unlimited Short-Term
Select International Equity Fund II		1,379,336,238		2016

Select International Equity Fund II		121,152,924		2018
Select International Equity Fund II		8,264,195		Unlimited Short-Term

Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, the Funds are permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 for an unlimited period. However, any losses incurred during those taxable years will be required to be utilized prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactment taxable years. As a result of this ordering rule, pre-enactment capital loss carryforwards may be more likely to expire unused. Additionally, post-enactment capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term as under previous law.

2014 Semi-Annual Report

Shareholder Expense Examples (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur ongoing costs, including investment advisory fees, shareholder service fees, distribution fees and other Fund expenses. The examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The examples assume that you had a $1,000 investment in the Class at the beginning of the reporting period, May 1, 2013 and continued to hold your shares at the end of the reporting period, April 30, 2014.

Actual Expenses

The table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information 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 under the heading entitled “Actual Expenses Paid During Period” for the class of a Fund that you own to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during the period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio of each Class of each Fund and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class’ actual return. The hypothetical account values 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 a Class of a Fund and other funds. To do so, compare the 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
