                             LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Fellow Shareholder:                                          August 7, 1995
 
  Clemente Global Growth Fund's net asset value (NAV) rose 3.6% to $10.42/share
in the three month period ending June 30, 1995. The Fund's benchmark, the
Financial Times Actuaries World Index (FT-World Index), over the same period
rose 4.0%. For the 6 month period ending June 30, 1995, the Fund's NAV was down
2.9%, versus up 8.1% for the FT Actuaries World Index. Strong performance in the
United States accounted for the benchmark's good showing in the first half of
the year.
 
THE PAST QUARTER
 
  The turn in world equity markets in the past quarter (vis-a-vis last quarter's
mediocre performance) produced the best results in over a year. Europe was
propelled forward by strong bond markets, and by continued gains in corporate
earnings. Southeast Asia came alive as the Mexico effects faded, and the
region's economic and corporate vitality again enticed inflows of capital. Latin
America, flat on the ground after the first quarter collapse, jumped sharply
upward as investors reassessed the risks, and saw reason for optimism in the
austere policies adopted by the most vulnerable nations in the region.
 
  Of particular interest were the performances turned in by Tokyo and Wall
Street. It is a tale of two rather different cities. The Japanese markets
continued to struggle under a number of formidable burdens, most notably an
unraveling economy, a heavily indebted financial system, and a leadership
crisis. They were down 10% for the quarter, in local terms, and did not respond
to the world interest rate environment until the start of the third quarter. The
US was another story where the Dow Jones Industrial Average soared 9.6% led by
the prospect of monetary easing by the Federal Reserve Bank and by strong
corporate earnings, notably in the technology sector.
 
  Europe's markets rebounded in the second quarter with gains that came entirely
from stock market rises, as opposed to the first quarter's currency gains, which
are still a big component of the year-to-date returns. Only France missed out on
the second quarter rally due to the fact that it was in the midst of a
contentious election. The hard currency bloc, particularly Belgium, Denmark,
Germany, the Netherlands, and Switzerland benefited from the greater stability
of exchange rates, and from the bond rallies that were spawned by the strong US
bond market. Spain and Sweden shrugged aside earlier political and budgetary
woes and, with the adoption of policies that were perceived as credible, managed
to produce strong market rallies. Italy was plagued by political uncertainties,
particularly over budget matters, but the UK markets rallied after Mr. Major's
victory in a vote within his own party. Finland, last year's best European
performer, turned in this quarter's best performance, rising 32%.
 
  The impetus for market advances in the Asia/Pacific Rim region came largely
from news that the US economy had slowed down enough to make further increases
in interest rates counterproductive. Expectations of falling rates, supported by
both economic data and by the bond market, encouraged investors in the
Asia/Pacific markets. The best performances were turned in by the ASEAN markets
which had been struggling for the past year. Indonesia, the Philippines, and
Thailand, with good growth, and excellent corporate earnings, all rose by 14-15%
in the quarter. More modest performances were turned in by nations that
benefited from the change in interest rate policy in the US, notably Hong Kong,
Malaysia, Australia, and New Zealand. Singapore was flat despite being a safe
haven area for much of the first half of 1995. South Korea and Taiwan stumbled
in the face of overheating economies that seemed to require higher interest
rates and tighter conditions of liquidity.

  The Latin comeback was sparked by US interest rate developments, and by
actions taken by the various Latin American governments to continue their
long-term reforms and to win back foreign investors. Argentina, with a favorable
election outcome, and a renewed commitment to the US dollar currency link, rose
6.0%, but remained down almost 12% for the year as a whole. Brazil had a bigger
second quarter gain (+15.3%), but it too was not enough to offset earlier losses
due to uncertainty about the future of reforms and about the real/US$ link.
 
PORTFOLIO ACTIVITY
 
  The most significant re-weighting in the portfolio that occurred was the
reduction of our Japanese weighting from a market weighting 28.1% to 21.5%. We
continued to reduce our investments in small capitalization issues there.
Significant also was our increased exposure to Europe which grew from 25.4% to
29.6%. This increased weighting represents an overweighted position relative to
the FT-World Index.
 
  Boosting our European weighting were our purchases of Banque Nationale de
Paris and Compagnie Generale des Eaux, marking the Fund's first return to the
French market since we sold Primagaz in 1993. Low inflation, pro-growth
policies, and the possibility of lower interest rates caused us to market weight
the Parisian market. In a departure from our more recent China oriented stock
investments in Hong Kong, we established a half position in property developer
Cheong Kong with the aim of eventually taking a full position. We continued our
reduction in Latin America, selling holdings in Colombia (Corporacion Financiera
del Valle), Mexico (Grupo Industrial Maseca), and Panama (Banco Latino
Americano).
 
LOOKING AHEAD
 
  The forces that undermined global capital markets in 1994 and the first
quarter of 1995 appear to be retreating in favor of forces more conducive to a
continuation of the equity market rally begun in the past quarter. In
particular, the dollar decline has been stemmed, for the time being, and
interest rates have reversed course. The recent Federal Reserve Bank move is not
much, but it does signal a change in policy concerns.
 
  Deflation grips the Japanese economy as a result of the strong yen, asset
deflation and policy making indecisiveness. Real GDP gains were 0.5% in 1994,
but the steady recovery that seemed in place last year is fading, and growth
prospects are dim for this year (0-0.5%) and the next (1.0-1.5%). The most
likely scenario is for below trend growth over the next 2-3 years. The economy
is characterized by very weak nominal demand. The strong yen threatens exports
and industrial production, and helps prolong the deep slump in business capital
spending. The slump in asset prices undermines consumer confidence, as do weak
labor markets and subdued income growth. Nonetheless, Japanese market valuations
look attractive. Earnings growth is estimated at 10% for the current and next
fiscal years (ending March 1996 and March 1997, respectively). With a price/book
ratio of 1.8x, this is in line with European multiples and at a discount to the
US multiple of 2.6x. The price to cash earnings ratio is similar to that of the
United States (8.8x), although ahead of the comparable European measure (6.5x).
 
  In the rest of the Asian/Pacific Rim economies, GDP growth should decelerate
somewhat in 1995 and 1996 (7.5-8.0% and 7.0-7.5%, respectively) but will remain
robust in relation to the rest of the world. The economic recovery in industrial
nations is providing a boost, but domestic demand is increasing in importance.
Infrastructure spending is set to rise more than $1 trillion over the next 10
years, while private consumption is being driven by growing affluence, by
changing social values, and by falling tariff barriers. Inflation will be the
same, on average, as it was in 1994 (7.0-7.5%). The rise in food prices will
ease, but the price of non-food items will escalate along with their demand.
Faster wage increases will put pressure
 
                                        2

on inflation, as will the costlier imports denominated in yen. The region's
governments are responding to the overheating of their respective economies with
structural policies designed to make needed infrastructure investments and to
create a more competitive environment, and with tighter monetary and fiscal
policies.
 
  Europeans have legitimate concerns about exports, given a slowing US economy
and a weaker dollar, and lower consumption, given delayed improvement in labor
markets. But the recovery of their economies appears to be well-established,
with production at high levels, and no evidence of a significant build-up of
inventories. Most European governments have adopted tighter fiscal policies for
1995-96, but only four nations--Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands, and the
UK--will meet the Maastricht convergence criteria by the end of 1996, namely a
deficit no larger than 3% of GDP. Despite high unemployment rates, there is
little in the way of expansive discretionary fiscal policy. The problems are
more likely to be the result of structural factors, including public health
costs, public pensions, and support for the long-term unemployed. Gains in real
GDP in 1995 are likely to be close to the average 3% rise for the region as a
whole, while a slowing in growth will be experienced in 1996. Countries like
Denmark, Ireland, Finland and Norway, with growth projected to be in the 3-5%
range for 1995 and 3-4% in 1996, will outperform their European peers.
 
  The US economy stalled in the second quarter, with the majority of the
economic numbers pointing to zero growth in the quarter. But there is also
evidence that this is a pause and not the beginning of a slide into recession. A
transition from growth of 4%+ to growth slightly below trend generally does not
occur without some jolts to the economy. A modest rise in US GDP is likely in
the third quarter (1.0-1.5%), then above trend growth for the next two quarters
(2.5-3.0%) before the economy settles down to around trend growth through the
remainder of 1996. Overall gains will be a bit under 2% this year and 2.5-3.0%
in 1996. The Federal Reserve signaled with its recent rate cut in the first week
of July that its concern has shifted from overheating to a cyclical downturn.
Another cut is likely during the third quarter, but, with a rebound at year-end,
rates may stabilize for a time.
 
  As a result of reduced foreign capital inflows, Latin American growth is set
to decelerate from 3% the last two years to 1.0-1.5% in 1995, and a mild pickup
to 2.0-2.5% in 1996. Mexico, Argentina and Venezuela seem destined for
recessions this year. The austerity policies are producing a deep contraction in
Mexico, while credit and fiscal tightening will bring a pause to Argentina's
recent robust growth. Brazil has a strong expansion, on the back of wage and
credit growth, and a policy induced slowdown is likely for 1996. Venezuela
remains in recession for the third year in a row, with weak domestic demand and
soaring unemployment. Chile, Peru and Colombia will grow at roughly their
potential growth rates of 5.0-5.5% through next year. Capital inflows are
financing current account deficits and making the expansions possible.
 
  Since the market capitalization guidelines were broadened in October of
19921, the Fund has enjoyed a whole new trove of investment opportunities that
we would like to describe to investors. The most straight forward have involved
investments in growth companies with market caps in excess of $1 billion, in
some instances well in excess of this amount. Requiring a bit more explanation
are the occasional purchases by Clemente Global Growth Fund of larger cap,
"cyclical companies" not traditionally associated with growth. A number of
factors prompted such investments. For one, it is the Fund adviser's
 
- ---------------
1 From the inception of the Fund in June 1987 to October 1992, the Fund was
  restricted from investing in companies whose market capitalization (number of
  shares outstanding x market price per share) was greater than $1 billion. In a
  meeting of the Fund's Board in October 1992, it was resolved that the
  arbitrary limit of $1 billion be lifted. Please refer to the CLM Quarterly
  Report dated September 30, 1992.

belief that even cyclical companies enjoy a growth phase over the course of a
typical business cycle, and that benefits accrue to investors from a more
flexible pursuit of corporate growth. More complicated still, and another
argument for a more flexible response, is the largely atypical nature of recent
business cycles. The normal rhythm of improvement and deterioration in business
conditions has been thrown off balance in recent years by massive structural
change. Large cap companies, seemingly at a mature phase of their life cycle,
suddenly faced competitive challenges and opportunities that produced, through
restructuring, downsizing, or the generation of new subsidiaries, new or
radically redefined lines of business that promised rates of growth not seen in
many years. The broadened mandate allowed the Fund to participate in a wide
range of opportunities made possible by often dramatic corporate change. The
central philosophy of the Fund -- growth investing -- has not changed. We
continue to invest in small to medium-sized growth companies across the globe,
where the potential for tremendous price appreciation often exists, but we will
diversify our holdings with investments in larger cap companies that stand to
benefit from unusual business circumstances and non-traditional sources of
growth.
 
  We would like to thank our fellow shareholders for their continued support and
joining us in our vision for global investing.

POLICIES                                         
                                                 
  Clemente Global Growth  Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") was incorporated in 
Maryland on May 1, 1987, as a closed-end, diversified management investment
company. The Fund had no operations until June 30, 1987, other than the sale of
10,000 shares of common stock for $100,000 to Clemente Capital, Inc. (the
"Investment Adviser") on June 9, 1987.
 
  The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the
Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.
 
SECURITY VALUATION:  Portfolio securities which are traded only on stock
exchanges or on the NASDAQ National Market System are valued at the last sale
price as of the close of business on the day the securities are being valued, or
lacking any sales, at the mean between closing bid and asked prices. Other
over-the-counter portfolio securities are valued at the most recent bid prices
as obtained from one or more dealers that make markets in the securities.
Portfolio securities which are traded both in the over-the-counter market and on
a stock exchange are valued according to the broadest and most representative
market as determined by the Board of Directors. Securities totalling $834,557
(1.36% of net assets) and assets for which market quotations are not readily
available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the
direction of the Board of Directors of the Fund. Short-term obligations,
maturing within 60 days of the valuation date, are to be valued at amortized
cost, unless this method, in the opinion of the Board of Directors, no longer
produces fair valuations.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CLEMENTE GLOBAL GROWTH FUND, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME: Securities transactions are
recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on sales of investments
are calculated on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the
ex-dividend date, or as soon thereafter when the information becomes publicly
available. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Such dividend income
and interest income is recorded before non-U.S. withholding tax. Non-U.S.
withholding tax is recorded as a reduction of income.
 
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION:  The books and records of the Fund are maintained
in United States dollars.
 
  Foreign currency amounts are translated as follows into U.S. dollars at the
foreign exchange rates obtained from an independent investment data service
which reports the exchange rates as of the close of the respective non-U.S.
market:
 
     (i) market value of investment securities and other assets and liabilities
  at the exchange rate on the valuation date.
 
    (ii) purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses at
  the exchange rate prevailing on the respective date of such transactions.
 
  The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting
from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations
arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are
included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.
 
  Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales and
maturities of short-term securities, currency gains and losses realized between
the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, the difference
between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes
recorded on the Fund's books, and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts
actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses
arise from changes in the value of the assets and liabilities other than
investments in securities at year end, resulting from changes in the foreign
exchange rate.
 
TAXES:  No provision for Federal income tax is required since it is the policy
of the Fund to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code
applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its
taxable income, including any net realized gains, in an amount sufficient to
relieve the Fund of any Federal income tax liability. The Fund intends to comply
with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code as long as qualification is
determined by the Board of Directors to be in the best interests of the
shareholders.
 
  Dividends and interest from non-U.S. sources received by the Fund are
generally subject to non-U.S. withholding taxes at rates of up to 25%. Such
withholding taxes may be reduced or eliminated under the terms of applicable
United States income tax treaties, and the Fund intends to undertake any
procedural steps required to claim the benefits of such treaties. If more than
50% in value of the Fund's total assets at the close of any taxable year
consists of stocks or securities of non-U.S. corporations, the Fund is permitted
and may elect to treat any non-U.S. taxes paid by it if paid by its
shareholders.
 
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS:  The Fund records dividends and
distributions to its shareholders on the ex-dividend date.
 
  The amounts of dividends from net investment income and of distributions from
net realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax
regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
These "book/tax" differences are either considered temporary or per-
 
                                       14

manent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such
amounts are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their
federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require
reclassification. Dividends and distributions to shareholders which exceed net
investment income and net realized gains for financial reporting purposes but
not for tax purposes are reported as dividends in excess of net investment
income or net distributions in excess of net realized gains. To the extent they
exceed net investment income and net realized gains for tax purposes, they are
reported as distributions of capital.

  The Fund will pay to the Investment Adviser as compensation for the    
services provided by the Investment Adviser under the Investment Advisory
Agreement, a monthly fee comprised of a basic fee of 1% (on an annualized
basis) of the month-end net assets of the Fund (the "Basic Fee") that is
subject to adjustment as described below based on the investment performance of
the Fund in relation to the investment record of the FT-Actuaries World Index
(the "FT-Actuaries Index").
 
  Adjustments to the Basic Fee are made by comparison of the Fund's investment
performance for the applicable performance period with the investment record of
the FT-Actuaries Index for the same period. The applicable performance period is
a rolling 36-month period whereby the most recent calendar month is substituted
for the earliest month as time passes. The Basic Fee for each month may be
increased to a maximum of 1.50% (on an annualized basis) or decreased to a
minimum of .50% (on an annualized basis) depending on the extent by which the
Fund's performance varies from the FT-Actuaries Index over the performance
period as set forth below.
 
  The following table illustrates the full range of permitted increases or
decreases of the Basic Fee on an annualized basis:

  In calculating the investment performance of the Fund as compared with the
investment record of the FT-Actuaries Index, dividends and other distributions
of the Fund and dividends and other distributions reported with respect to
component securities of the FT-Actuaries Index during the performance period
will be treated as having been reinvested. Also, the withholding taxes paid or
accrued by the Fund are added back in calculating the Fund's performance in
order to be comparative with the FT-Actuaries Index.
