+ Current annualized distribution rate is the latest monthly dividend shown as
an annualized percentage of net asset value on June 30, 1996. Distribution rate
simply measures the level of dividends and is not a complete measure of
performance. The SEC yield is net investment income per share earned over the
month ended June 30, 1996 shown as an annualized percentage of the maximum
offering price on that date. The SEC yield is computed in accordance with a
standardized method prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The special risk considerations associated with an investment in the fund,
including risks related to foreign investments and to a non-diversified
investment company, are discussed in the prospectus. Risks associated with
foreign securities, including fluctuating exchange rates, government regulations
and differences in liquidity, may affect your investment. As a non-diversified
investment company, the fund may invest more than 5% of its assets in the
securities of a particular foreign government.
TERMS TO KNOW
COUPON RATE Interest rate on a debt security the issuer promises to pay to the
holder until maturity, expressed as an annual percentage of par value.
CURRENCY RISK The U.S. dollar value of a foreign security tends to decrease when
the value of the U.S. dollar rises against the foreign currency in which the
security is denominated. Conversely, the U.S. dollar value of a foreign security
tends to increase when the value of the U.S. dollar falls against the currency.
INDEX An unmanaged group of securities that is considered representative of the
stock or bond markets. An index does not take into account any fees or expenses
related to the individual securities that it tracks. However, for performance
comparisons, the index is adjusted to reflect reinvestment of dividends of the
securities in the index.
TOTAL RETURN A fund's total return measures both the net investment income and
any realized and unrealized appreciation or depreciation of the underlying
investments in its portfolio for the period, assuming that dividends are
reinvested. It represents the aggregate percentage or dollar value change over
the period.

DEAR SHAREHOLDER,
We have just completed a period of some discomfort for bond and stock market
traders. Concerns about rising interest rates, the possibility of higher price
inflation and Federal Reserve tightening of credit contributed to considerable
market volatility. But while the professional investors tend to fret over every
economic release, individuals who invest in mutual funds for the long term were
wise to stay the course -- at least until the direction of the economy became
clearer. Indeed, several recent economic measures are quite reassuring and argue
in favor of a continued healthy economy with low inflation.
The economy expanded at a 4.2% annual rate in the second quarter, the fastest
pace since the second quarter of 1994. This robust growth is welcome in general
but has tended to roil markets, which fear strong growth will lead to
overheating and inflationary pressures. So far, however, such fears have been
largely unwarranted. With the exception of food prices, whose increases were
weather-related, there have been no significant signs of inflationary pressures.
As it has so often recently, the economy is in the process of slowing itself
down. While the Federal Reserve Board stands by ready to attempt to moderate

ECONOMIC GUIDEPOSTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Economic activity is a key influence on investment performance and shareholder
decision-making. Periods of recession or boom, inflation or deflation, credit
expansion or credit crunch have a significant impact on mutual fund
performance.
The following are some significant economic guideposts and their investment
rationale that may help your investment decision-making. The 10-year Treasury
rate and the prime rate are prevailing interest rates. The other data report
year-to-year percentage changes.

ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
economic growth with either interest rate cuts or increases, such intervention
can run the risk of going too far in one direction. It appears that our economy
today is self-regulating.
Based on these snapshots of the economy, then, we look for a relatively calmer
second half of 1996. Our forecast calls for growth to slow down in the third and
fourth quarters, to result in an advance of about 2.5% for the entire year.
Assuming that bond and stock market investors concur that there is no chance of
an overheating economy or significantly rising interest rates, the markets
should relax, as well.
What was the meaning of the market volatility that we experienced in May, June
and July? Investors were nervous about the broad economy, and some disappointing
earnings reports made them pessimistic. Yet, the markets performed the way that
history suggests they should: an overall correction in the stock market was
accentuated in technology and small capitalization stocks -- the industry
sectors whose performance tends to be the most volatile. Once the stock market
corrected, the bond market rallied. Finally, while not producing spectacular
results, international markets provided a stabilizing influence when compared to
U.S. markets.
Our market forecast eight months into the year is not much different from what
we forecasted in January. The bond market, which is climbing back from a decline
this year, may produce a 5% total return in 1996. The stock market, after the
correction is completed, may advance 5% to 10% for the year. Naturally, future
market conditions cannot be predicted with assurance.
In addition, we are projecting that long-term (30-year) interest rates will
hover in the 6.5% to 7.5% range. Short-term interest rates may drop below their
current levels. Finally, we would be surprised if the Federal Reserve Board
moved to adjust interest rates more than 25 basis points either way for the
remainder of the year.
Given the economic environment, we do not look for an upset in the upcoming
presidential election. Much more interesting will be which party wins the most
congressional seats. If the Democrats regain control of Congress, a bond market
selloff could be expected.
While U.S. markets are expected to provide modest returns, we continue to
advocate the benefits of diversification into alternate markets. Many overseas
markets are forecasted to grow at a rate well above our 2.5% growth expectation
for the U.S., and there are many equity and fixed-income opportunities abroad.
The value of the U.S. dollar, always a concern to international investors, will
probably not strengthen much against other currencies for the foreseeable
future.
With that as an economic backdrop, we encourage you to read the following
detailed report of your fund, including an interview with your fund's portfolio
management. Thank you for your continued support. We appreciate the opportunity
to serve your investment needs.
Sincerely,
/s/ Stephen B. Timbers

CO-MANAGER GORDON JOHNS DISCUSSES THE MARKET ACTIVITY AND KEMPER GLOBAL INCOME
FUND'S PERFORMANCE.
Q. GORDON, HOW WOULD YOU CHARACTERIZE KEMPER GLOBAL INCOME FUND'S
PERFORMANCE DURING THE LAST SIX MONTHS AND THE GLOBAL BOND MARKETS' PERFORMANCE
IN GENERAL?
A. Kemper Global Income Fund ended this six-month period at -1.08 percent,
slightly better than the Salomon Brothers World Government Bond Index* which
slipped to -1.48 percent, in U.S. dollar terms, for the period. In local
currency terms, Italy and Spain had the highest returns with 10.15 percent and
9.05 percent respectively. Due in large part to speculation about interest
rates, the U.S. returned -1.80 percent. It was a market in which bonds earned
their coupon rates but there was very little capital appreciation.
* The Salomon Brothers World Government Bond Index is an unmanaged index that
is generally considered representative of world government bond markets. This
index serves as a benchmark to which world income bond funds compare their
performance.
Q. WHICH MARKETS DID THE FUND FAVOR?
A. In general, we found the dollar-bloc countries (New Zealand, Australia
and Canada), excluding the United States, the most attractive in this period
because the dollar-bloc tended to improve against the other currencies,
especially the yen. Compared to the Salomon Brothers index, the fund is
overweighted in Europe, Australia and New Zealand. We are underweighted in the
U.S. and in Japan due to currency uncertainties.
In the last six months, we have eliminated our exposure to smaller
markets such as Portugal and Finland because the core European markets were
more attractive from a valuation standpoint than these peripheral markets. Also
on a risk basis, core markets including France, Germany and the Netherlands
were offering higher forecasted returns. The United Kingdom is an example of a
core market where we also found value. In addition, we increased our Australian
exposure during this period because of low valuations in the markets there. The
Australian bond market provided a good alternative to the weak U.S. bond
market.
Q. SO WHAT HELPED THE FUND OUTPERFORM THE INDEX?
A. Throughout the period, we maintained a 20 percent weighting in the U.S.
By keeping our exposure in this market low, we were able to reduce the effect
of the weak U.S. markets on our total return for the six-month period. This
lesser weighting compared to the Salomon Brothers index contributed to our
stronger performance for the period. With a reduced position in the U.S., we
looked for and found significant pockets of value elsewhere. The fund was
5
<PAGE> 6
PERFORMANCE UPDATE
overweighted in France, for example, and returns in local currency terms there
were 4.34 percent. We also had greater exposure to Ireland than the index and
that market returned 3.22 percent.
Q. WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE COMING MONTHS?
A. We don't anticipate a great deal of change. We are not seeing the sort
of attractive valuations that inspire significant moves in the bond market. The
positioning of the portfolio assumes some appreciation of the U.S. dollar, but
we will continue to favor the dollar-bloc countries other than the U.S. We are
looking for stable interest rates worldwide, yet growth should continue at a
reasonable pace.
Q. WHAT ARE THE RISKS TO THIS OUTLOOK?
A. When comparing the inflation levels in the major economies of the
world, they have increased only slightly over the previous year. Growth has
turned around in Europe, the business cycle in North America is maturing and
the output in the U.S. is reaching its potential. Obviously, the major risk
brought on by these conditions is that the current growth will produce
inflationary pressure. If this happens, governments may tighten monetary
policies and raise interest rates. Should that happen, bond values will suffer.

1 DESCRIPTION OF THE FUND Kemper Global Income Fund is an open-end
management investment company organized as a
business trust under the laws of Massachusetts.
The Fund currently offers four classes of shares.
Class A shares are sold to investors subject to an
initial sales charge. Class B shares are sold
without an initial sales charge but are subject to
higher ongoing expenses than Class A shares and a
contingent deferred sales charge payable upon
certain redemptions. Class B shares automatically
convert to Class A shares six years after
issuance. Class C shares are sold without an
initial sales charge but are subject to higher
ongoing expenses than Class A shares and, for
shares sold on or after April 1, 1996, a
contingent deferred sales charge payable upon
certain redemptions within one year of purchase.
Class C shares do not convert into another class.
Class I shares, which are sold to a limited group
of investors, are not subject to initial or
contingent deferred sales charges and have lower
ongoing expenses than other classes. Differences
in class expenses will result in the payment of
different per share income dividends by class.
Each share represents an identical interest in the
investments of the Fund and has the same rights.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING INVESTMENT VALUATION. Investments are stated at
POLICIES value. Fixed income securities are valued by using
market quotations, or independent pricing services
that use prices provided by market makers or
estimates of market values obtained from yield
data relating to instruments or securities with
similar characteristics. Portfolio securities that
are traded on a domestic securities exchange are
valued at the last sale price on the exchange
where primarily traded or, if there is no recent
sale, at the last current bid quotation. Portfolio
securities that are primarily traded on foreign
securities exchanges are generally valued at the
preceding closing values of such securities on
their respective exchanges where primarily traded.
Securities not so traded are valued at the last
current bid quotation if market quotations are
available. Exchange traded options are valued at
the last sale price unless there is no sale price,
in which event prices provided by market makers
are used. Over-the-counter traded options are
valued based upon prices provided by market
makers. Financial futures and options thereon are
valued at the settlement price established each
day by the board of trade or exchange on which
they are traded. Forward foreign currency
contracts and foreign currencies are valued at the
forward and current exchange rates, respectively,
prevailing on the day of valuation. Other
securities and assets are valued at fair value as
determined in good faith by the Board of
Trustees.
CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The books and records of the
Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. All assets
and liabilities initially expressed in foreign
currency values are converted into U.S. dollar
values at the mean between the bid and offered
quotations of such currencies against U.S. dollars
as last quoted by a recognized dealer. If such
quotations are not readily available, the rate of
exchange is determined in good faith by the Board
of Trustees. Income and expenses and purchases and
sales of investments are translated into U.S.
dollars at the rate of exchange prevailing on the
13

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
respective dates of such transactions. The Fund
includes that portion of the results of operations
resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates
with net realized and unrealized gain or loss from
investments and foreign currency transactions, as
appropriate.
INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME.
Investment transactions are accounted for on the
trade date (date the order to buy or sell is
executed). Interest income is recorded on the
accrual basis and includes discount amortization on
fixed income securities. Realized gains and losses
from investment transactions are reported on an
identified cost basis.
FUND SHARE VALUATION. Fund shares are sold and
redeemed on a continuous basis at net asset value
(plus an initial sales charge on most sales of
Class A shares). Proceeds payable on redemption of
Class B and Class C shares will be reduced by the
amount of any applicable contingent deferred sales
charge. On each day the New York Stock Exchange is
open for trading, the net asset value per share is
determined as of the earlier of 3:00 p.m. Chicago
time or the close of the Exchange. The net asset
value per share is determined separately for each
share class by dividing the attributable net assets
by the number of outstanding shares of each class.
Because of the need to obtain prices as of the
close of trading on various exchanges throughout
the world, the calculation of net asset value does
not take place contemporaneously with the
determination of the prices of the Fund's foreign
securities.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES. The Fund has complied with
the special provisions of the Internal Revenue Code
available to investment companies for the six
months ended June 30, 1996. The accumulated net
realized loss on sales of investments for federal
income tax purposes at June 30, 1996, amounting to
approximately $49,332,000, is available to offset
future taxable gains. Of this amount, approximately
$45,783,000 was obtained through prior fund
acquisitions. Under Internal Revenue Code
provisions the amount of acquired loss carryover
available each year is limited to approximately
$7,000,000. If not applied, the loss carryover
expires during the period 1997 through 2002.
DIVIDENDS TO SHAREHOLDERS. The Fund declares and
pays dividends of net investment income monthly and
any net realized capital gains annually, which are
recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends are
determined in accordance with income tax principles
which may treat certain transactions differently
from generally accepted accounting principles.
These differences are primarily due to differing
treatments for certain transactions such as foreign
currency transactions.
EQUALIZATION ACCOUNTING. A portion of proceeds from
sales and cost of redemptions of Fund shares is
credited or charged to undistributed net investment
income so that income per share available for
distribution is not affected by sales or
redemptions of shares.

6 FORWARD FOREIGN
CURRENCY CONTRACTS In order to help protect itself against a decline
in the value of particular foreign currencies
against the U.S. Dollar, the Fund has entered into
forward contracts to deliver foreign currency in
exchange for U.S. Dollars as described below. The
Fund bears the market risk that arises from changes
in foreign exchange rates, and accordingly, the net
unrealized gain (loss) on these contracts is
reflected in the accompanying financial statements.
The Fund also bears the credit risk if the
counterparty fails to perform under the contract.
At June 30, 1996, the Fund had the following
outstanding forward foreign currency contract with
a settlement date in September 1996 (in thousands):
