THIRD QUARTER REPORT
September 30, 1998
<PAGE>
BEA STRATEGIC GLOBAL INCOME FUND, INC.
- ----------
Dear Shareholders: October 20, 1998
We are pleased to report on the activities of the BEA Strategic Global Income
Fund, Inc. ("the Fund") for the quarter ended September 30, 1998 and to discuss
our investment strategy.
At September 30, 1998, the Fund's net asset value ("NAV") was $9.33,
compared to an NAV of $10.70 at June 30, 1998. The Fund's total return (based on
NAV and assuming reinvestment of dividends of $0.2175 per share) for the period
declined 10.80%. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, the Fund's total
return declined 7.08% (based on NAV and assuming reinvestment of dividends of
$0.73 per share).
At September 30, 1998, $52.8 million was invested in high yield debt
securities; $2.4 million in investment-grade debt securities; $13.9 million in
emerging-market debt securities; $6.2 million in equity securities; and the
balance of $2.4 million in cash equivalents. Of the debt securities, the largest
concentration (52.5%) was invested in B-rated issues.
THE MARKET: STILL FLYING TO QUALITY
During the third quarter, global fixed income markets experienced yet
another "flight to quality" reaction in which sovereign securities -- notably
U.S. Treasury bonds -- became the favored asset. Much of the plunge in bond
prices occurred in the month of August alone, when market volatility was such
that many debt sectors generated their worst-ever relative returns for a single
month.
It's not surprising that high yield fared worse than investment-grade
securities in this kind of environment. As measured by the Salomon Smith Barney
High-Yield Market Index, the overall high yield market fell 4.8%. Aggregate
investment-grade securities (in the form of the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond
Index), by contrast, gained 4.2%.
Emerging markets were struck by the heaviest selling activity among all
fixed income sectors. J.P. Morgan's Emerging Markets Bond Index Plus (EMBI+),
for example, fell 21.2%, and only one individual market (Bulgaria) generated a
positive return. Another measure of the decline was the dramatic widening of the
difference, or "spread," between yields of emerging debt securities and those of
comparable U.S. Treasury bonds. EMBI+'s spread versus comparable Treasuries
doubled to a stunning 13.30 percentage points.
Developments overseas were most responsible both for the flight to quality
and the quarter's high volatility:
- - RUSSIA: The deterioration of political and economic conditions in Russia came
to a head in mid-August, when the government devalued the crumbling ruble and
rescheduled payment of ruble-denominated Treasury securities.
For investors, this was a major turning point in how they perceive risk and
their overall willingness to accept it. The world's bond and stock markets
subsequently plunged as investors sought to rid themselves of relatively risky
assets.
- - JAPAN: An unexpected outcome in July's parliamentary elections forced Prime
Minister Hashimoto to resign. The Japanese economy, meanwhile, remained mired
in its worst recession since World War II, while government gridlock prevented
any real progress toward a solution.
- - BRAZIL: Fueled by negative news from Asia and Russia, concern over Brazil's
fiscal deficit and overvalued currency prompted foreigners to withdraw an
alarmingly high amount of capital from the country. Expectations grew that the
International Monetary Fund would provide a financial aid package of some
kind. Investors began to contemplate with uneasiness the nation's prospects
following the presumed re-election of President Cardoso in October.
In the U.S., sentiment for a reduction in interest rates that would keep the
domestic economy humming and help ease macroeconomic conditions elsewhere rose
to a fever pitch. The Federal Reserve cut short-term rates by 25 basis points on
September 29th, an amount many considered too low. There also was the news that
a prominent hedge fund with major positions in fixed income, Long-Term Capital
Management, had racked up huge trading losses and would need to be bailed out by
its creditors and shareholders.
The negative effect of the flight to quality on high yield prices was
magnified by two factors. First was the heavy selling by hedge funds like
Long-Term Capital, which were forced to liquidate large positions to protect
performance as well as to meet margin calls and share redemptions; and brokerage
firms, which had to sell to offset losses in emerging market debt and were faced
with swelling inventories that they could not maintain. Second was the fact that
there were few buyers around, as most portfolio managers chose to simply
maintain existing holdings while prices fell.
PERFORMANCE: DAMPENED BY EMERGING MARKETS, SOME
SECTOR ALLOCATIONS
The Fund's holdings in emerging market debt had the biggest impact on
performance during the third quarter. Although exposure to the emerging sector
was relatively modest, the sector's weakness was sufficient to reduce
performance significantly below that of the Fund's high yield portion, which
accounted for about 75% of total assets at September 30th.
2
<PAGE>
Within the high yield portion, sector allocations relative to the overall
high yield market (as represented by the Salomon Smith Barney index) both helped
and hurt quarterly performance:
- - On the positive side were our overweight in cable/media, which performed much
better than the market; and underweights in energy and finance, both of which
were hit hard.
- - Our overweighting in telecommunications hurt returns, as telecom issues
performed poorly.
- - We were also more highly exposed than the market to deferred interest
instruments such as zero-coupon bonds, whose prices tend to fluctuate much
more like stocks than bonds. Zeros experienced particularly high volatility as
stocks sold off and fixed income investors flocked to the least risky
securities.
- - Our absence from utilities, which was among the best-performing high yield
sectors, was an additional negative.
OUTLOOK: CAUTIOUSLY OPTIMISTIC
HIGH YIELD. Our near-term view of the high yield market is one of caution,
as we expect activity to remain volatile through the fourth quarter and into
early 1999. Hedge funds and brokers still have substantial positions to sell,
and will have to do so during the fourth quarter in order to balance their books
by year-end. Investors also continue to grapple with important developments
overseas.
Barring a recession of some degree -- which we consider unlikely -- we're
more optimistic about high yield's prospects next year. The key to this thesis
is our sense that the Fed will continue to reduce interest rates, perhaps as
much as another 50-100 basis points over the next six months or so. [Indeed, the
Fed has already done so by unexpectedly cutting rates by 25 basis points on
October 15th.] This, in turn, should help to stabilize overall global market
conditions and maintain a comfortable level of liquidity, thus setting the stage
for most fixed income sectors to thrive. The benefits of further rate cuts
should be enough to offset any major potential negatives.
Our fundamental strategy is unchanged. We continue to favor issues at the
higher end of the high yield credit spectrum and are keeping the portfolio most
heavily weighted in the cable/media, telecommunications and gaming sectors, as
their positive industry and company fundamentals are intact. We also are
avoiding meaningful exposure to cyclical industries and those most vulnerable to
the severe economic problems in Asia. Should appropriate opportunities arise, we
will probably add to our holdings in cable/media and BB-rated bonds more
generally.
INTERNATIONAL. We remain cautious on emerging markets in the near term,
given overall market volatility and a relatively low level of liquidity. Global
factors will continue to drive trading activity. Adding to our caution is the
likelihood that, as is the case with high yield, many hedge funds and brokers
will seek to reduce their emerging debt inventories by the end of the year. We
are hopeful that the important elections in Brazil and Venezuela during the
fourth quarter will enable us to gain a clearer view of market direction heading
into 1999.
The Fund's emerging markets exposure remains conservatively positioned, in
more liquid assets. This should enable us to take greater advantage of market
conditions where appropriate. We continue to focus on higher-quality sovereign
credits like Poland, Morocco, Colombia, Panama and Mexico, as well as on
countries with relatively lower external financing needs. In our view, there are
limited opportunities in local-currency instruments at present due to their
higher volatility and the need for higher interest rates as a means of defending
weak currencies.
As developments occur that we believe would be of interest to you, we will
keep you informed. Meanwhile, if you have any questions about your portfolio or
the capital markets generally, please feel free to call upon us at any time.
We appreciate your interest in the Fund and would be pleased to respond to
your questions or comments. Any questions regarding net asset value,
performance, dividends, portfolio management or allocations should be directed
to BEA Associates at (800) 293-1232. All other inquiries regarding account
information or requests for a prospectus or other reports should be directed to
the Fund's Shareholder Servicing Agent at (800) 428-8890.

DESCRIPTION OF DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT
AND CASH PURCHASE PLAN
- ---------
Pursuant to the BEA Strategic Global Income Fund, Inc.'s (the "Fund") Dividend
Reinvestment and Cash Purchase Plan (the "Plan"), shareholders may elect to have
all dividends and distributions, net of any U.S. withholding tax, automatically
reinvested in additional shares of the Fund by The Chase Manhattan Bank, as the
plan agent (the "Plan Agent"). Shareholders who do not make this election will
receive all dividends and distributions in cash, net of any applicable U.S.
withholding tax, paid in dollars by check mailed directly to the shareholder by
the Plan Agent, as dividend-paying agent. Shareholders who do not wish to have
dividends and distributions automatically reinvested should notify the Plan
Agent for the Fund, at Dividend Reinvestment Department -- Retail, 4 New York
Plaza, New York, NY 10004. A shareholder whose shares are held by a broker or
nominee that does not provide a dividend reinvestment program may be required to
have his shares registered in his own name to participate in the Plan. Investors
who own shares of the Fund's common stock registered in street name should
contact the broker or nominee for details concerning participation in the Plan.
Certain distributions of cash attributable to (a) some of the dividends and
interest amounts paid to the Fund and (b) certain capital gains earned by the
Fund that are derived from securities of certain foreign issuers are subject to
taxes payable by the Fund at the time amounts are remitted. Such taxes, if any,
will be borne by the Fund and allocated to all shareholders in proportion to
their interests in the Fund.
The Plan Agent serves as agent for the shareholders in administering the
Plan. If the Board of Directors of the Fund declares an income dividend or a
capital gains distribution payable either in the Fund's common stock or in cash,
as shareholders may have elected, nonparticipants in the Plan will receive cash
and participants in the Plan will receive the equivalent in shares of the Fund
valued at the lower of market price or net asset value as determined at the time
of purchase (generally on the payable date of the dividend) as set forth below.
Whenever market price is equal to or exceeds net asset value at the time shares
are valued for the purpose of determining the number of shares equivalent to the
cash dividend or distribution, participants will be issued shares of the Fund at
a price equal to net asset value but not less than 95% of the then current
market price of the Fund shares. The Fund will not issue shares under the Plan
below net asset value. If net asset value determined as at the time of purchase
exceeds the market price of Fund shares at such time, or if the Fund should
declare a dividend or other distribution payable only in cash (i.e., if the
Board of Directors should preclude reinvestment at net asset value), the Agent
will, as agent for the participants, endeavor to buy Fund shares in the open
market, on the New York Stock Exchange or elsewhere, on behalf of all
participants, and will allocate to you your pro rata portion based on the
average price paid (including brokerage commissions) for all shares purchased.
Shares acquired on behalf of participants in the open market will be purchased
at the prevailing market price. Fractions of a share allocated to you will be
computed to four decimal places. If, before the Agent has completed its
purchases, the market price exceeds the net asset value of a Fund share, the
average per share purchase price paid by the Agent may exceed the net asset
value of the Fund's shares, resulting in the acquisition of fewer shares than if
the dividend or distribution had been paid in shares issued by the Fund.
For all purposes of the Plan: (a) the market price of the Fund's common
stock on a dividend payment date shall be the last sale price on the New York
Stock Exchange on that date, or, if there is no such sale, then the mean between
the closing bid and asked quotations for such stock, and (b) net asset value per
share of the Fund's common stock on a particular date shall be as determined by
or on behalf of the Fund.
Participants in the Plan have the option of making additional cash payments
to the Plan Agent, monthly, in any amount from $100 to $1,000, for investment in
the Fund's common stock. Shareholders should be aware that cash contributions
will be used to purchase shares of the Fund in the open market regardless of
whether such shares are selling above, at or below the market price that
reflects a premium to the Fund's net asset value.
Cash contributions should be in the form of a check or money order and made
payable in U.S. dollars and directed to The Chase Manhattan Bank, Dividend
Reinvestment Department -- Retail, 4 New York Plaza, New York, NY 10004.
Deliveries to any other address do not constitute valid delivery.
A detachable form for use in making voluntary cash payments will be attached
to each Dividend Reinvestment Plan statement you receive. The same amount of
money need not be sent each month and there is no obligation to make an optional
cash payment each month.
Payments received by the Agent will be used to purchase stock under the
Plan. Prior to such purchase of stock by the Agent, no interest will be paid on
such funds sent to the Agent. Therefore, voluntary cash payments should be sent
to reach the Agent shortly (but at least five business days) before the dividend
payment date. Voluntary cash payments received after the five business day
deadline will be invested by the Agent on the next succeeding dividend payment
date. Dividend payment dates are expected to be the 15th (or next business day)
of each month.
You may obtain a refund of any voluntary payment if a request for such a
refund is received in writing by the Agent not less than 48 hours before the
next succeeding dividend payment.
There is no charge to participants for reinvesting dividends or capital
gains distributions. The Agent's fees for the
14
<PAGE>
handling of reinvestment of dividends and distributions will be paid by the
Fund. There will be no brokerage charges with respect to shares issued directly
by the Fund as a result of dividends or capital gains distributions payable
either in shares or in cash. However, each participant will pay a pro rata share
of brokerage commissions incurred with respect to the Agent's open market
purchases in connection with the reinvestment of dividends, capital gains
distributions, or voluntary cash payments.
Brokerage charges for purchasing small amounts of stock for individual
accounts through the Plan are expected to be less than the usual brokerage
charges for such transactions because the Agent will be purchasing stock for all
participants in blocks and pro rating the lower commissions thus attainable.
The receipt of dividends and distributions in stock under the Plan will not
relieve participants of any income tax (including withholding tax) that may be
payable on such dividends and distributions.
While the Fund presently intends to continue the Plan indefinitely,
experience under the Plan may indicate that changes are desirable. Accordingly,
the Fund reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan as applied to any
voluntary cash payments made and any dividend or distribution paid subsequent to
notice of the change sent to all shareholders of the Fund at least 30 days
before the record date for such dividend or distribution. The Plan also may be
amended or terminated by the Agent by at least 30 days' written notice to all
shareholders of the Fund.
Any notices, questions or other correspondence regarding the Plan should be
addressed to The Chase Manhattan Bank, Customer Service Department, 4 New York
Plaza, New York, NY 10004. Be sure to include a reference to BEA Strategic
Global Income Fund, Inc. or you may call (800) 428-8890.
