A Message from
the Chairman
Dear Fellow Shareholder:
It was an exemplary first year for AIM Global Income Fund.
[PHOTO OF We are pleased to report the Fund logged total returns for
CHARLES T. BAUER, Class A and Class B shares of 16.07% and 15.56%,
CHAIRMAN OF respectively, for the year ended October 31, 1995. Such
THE BOARD OF performance was enough to surpass major world bond
THE FUND, performance benchmarks as well as results charted for
APPEARS HERE] similar funds. For its efforts, the fund has begun to
attract attention from such popular publications as The
Wall Street Journal.
For the record, key indexes which measure the performance of U.S. and
foreign government bonds posted the following one-year total returns for the
reporting period: the Lehman Brothers Government Bond Index, 15.38%; and the
Salomon Brothers World Government Bond Index, 15.20%. Similar global income
funds, as measured by the Lipper General World Fund Income Fund Index, posted
a one-year total return of 11.25%.
The Fund managed its strong showing in world markets that, for much of 1995,
were pressured by economic and political uncertainty in Latin America and
Japan. The keys to the Fund's performance were disciplined security selection
and a portfolio invested in 10 countries. A more complete discussion of market
conditions during the reporting period and the Fund's investment strategy is
provided on page 2 of this report.
Although it has been a good year for AIM Global Income Fund, it is but one
year. We are reminded that market cycles come and go, and such performance as
we have enjoyed the past 12 months is unlikely to continue uninterrupted.
Therefore, even as we relish the success of a good year, we are already
looking ahead to next year. AIM's disciplined fixed-income investment strategy
is an ongoing evaluation of market opportunity, and as global markets continue
to grow, our job becomes more challenging.
On a personal level, the year to come has important investment implications
for all of us. Clouds on the horizon in the form of the budget debate over
retirement benefits such as Medicare and Social Security programs accentuate the
need to build your own retirement nest egg, independent of any benefits which
may--or may not--be available to you when the time comes. For many in the baby
boomer generation, that's just 10 years away.
We sincerely appreciate our shareholders' confidence in this first full
year of the Fund's operation. It is our hope that you continue to rely on AIM
Global Income Fund to help build your financial future. As always, we are
ready to respond to your questions or comments about this report. Please call

GLOBAL BOND INVESTORS REAP ATTRACTIVE
RETURNS IN 1995
Shortly after this reporting period began, the prospect of a slowdown in global
economies and benign inflation led to a dramatic rally in fixed-income
securities. The catalyst was the slowing economy in the U.S., which led
investors to anticipate that the Federal Reserve Board might suspend its
year-long restrictive monetary policy aimed at curbing inflation. Strong
international currencies relative to the U.S. dollar also contributed to
positive returns for U.S. investors.
The strength in U.S. bonds fueled an advance in world fixed-income markets.
The cycle came full circle when, in the second quarter of 1995, economic growth
in the U.S. slowed to 1.3%, prompting mild concern over the possibility of a
recession. By midyear, investors had already begun to factor in a reduction in
key short-term interest rates. In July, the Fed finally cut short-term
interest rates by 0.25%, the first such action by the central bank since 1992.
Growth in Japan subsided after the Kobe earthquake early in the year,
increasing demand for bonds among Japanese investors despite their low nominal
yields. While European bonds under-performed U.S. and Japanese fixed-income
securities, they nevertheless responded well to slower growth in Europe and
rising demand from domestic investors. Europe's securities also attracted
investors weary of currency turbulence initiated when Mexico devalued its peso
at the start of the year.
By the end of the third quarter in 1995, the steep decline in bond yields
was largely over. However, growth in most major world economies continued at
moderate rates and inflation remained in check.
YOUR INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO
AIM Global Income Fund invested across a range of fixed income securities
during the reporting period. As of October 31, 1995, 57% of the portfolio was
invested in domestic issues, including 34% in U.S. government bonds and 23% in
corporate bonds. Of course, the Fund's portfolio composition may change and
there is no assurance the Fund will continue to hold any specific security in
any particular country.
Of the Fund's international holdings, 33% was invested in foreign government
bonds and 14% in foreign corporate issues. Average duration of the Fund's
portfolio was 5.93 years. The average quality rating of the portfolio was "A",
as measured by Standard & Poor's Corporation, a credit rating agency. S&P
ratings are historical and are based on an annual analysis of the Fund's
portfolio credit quality, composition, and management.
The Fund was strongly weighted in domestic fixed-income securities
throughout the reporting period. During the second quarter of 1995, the Fund
increased its holdings in core European markets. Germany, in particular,
enjoyed strong bond market performance for most of the year. In addition, the
Fund benefited from diversification into such higher-yielding markets as New
Zealand, Australia, and Canada.
OUTLOOK FOR THE FUTURE
An important message revealed by the impressive performance of world bond
markets so far in 1995: investors believe inflation is not a problem, even with
moderate economic growth. Further, at current levels of inflation, bonds offer
reasonable valuations compared with stocks.

No one can predict what factors may actually drive market performance around
the world in the coming year. Therefore, AIM chooses not to anticipate
macro-economic trends in any particular country. Instead, we remain committed
to a disciplined investment strategy which prompts us to rely on what we know
about securities in which we invest, based upon verified financial information.
Such a strategy helps us determine the most attractive bonds to hold, on a
issue-by-issue basis, without guesswork or futile attempts at market timing. We
believe our commitment to this time-tested strategy will provide the best value
for shareholders over the long term.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OCTOBER 31, 1995
NOTE 1-SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
AIM Global Income Fund (the ''Fund'') is an investment portfolio of AIM
International Funds, Inc. (the ''Company''). The Company is a Maryland
corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended
(the ''1940 Act''), as an open-end management investment company consisting of
four separate series portfolios: AIM Global Income Fund, AIM Global Aggressive
Growth Fund, AIM Global Growth Fund, and AIM International Equity Fund. The
Fund currently offers two different classes of shares: Class A shares and Class
B shares. Class A shares are sold with a front-end sales charge. Class B shares
are sold with a contingent deferred sales charge. Matters affecting each
portfolio or class are voted on exclusively by the shareholders of such
portfolio or class. The assets, liabilities and operations of each portfolio
are accounted for separately. Information presented in these financial
statements pertains only to the Fund. The following is a summary of significant
accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial
statements.
A. Security Valuations-Non-convertible bonds and notes are valued on the
basis of prices provided by an independent pricing service. Prices
provided by the pricing service may be determined without exclusive
reliance on quoted price, and may reflect appropriate factors such as
institution-size trading in similar groups of securities, developments
related to special securities, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type
of issue, individual trading characteristics and other market data.
Investment securities for which prices are not provided by the pricing
service and which are listed or traded on an exchange are valued at the
last sales price on the exchange where the security is principally traded
or, lacking any sales on a particular day, at the mean between the closing
bid and asked prices on that day unless the Board of Directors, or persons
designated by the Board of Directors, determines that the over-the-counter
quotations more closely reflect the current market value of the security.
Securities traded in the over-the-counter market, except (i) securities
priced by the pricing service, (ii) securities for which representative
exchange prices are available, and (iii) securities reported in the NASDAQ
National Market System, are valued at the mean between representative last
bid and asked prices obtained from an electronic quotation reporting
system, if such prices are available, or from established market makers.
Each security reported in the NASDAQ National Market System is valued at
the last sales price on the valuation date. Securities for which market
quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as
determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the Fund's
officers in accordance with methods which are specifically authorized by
the Board of Directors. Short-term obligations having 60 days or less to
maturity are valued at amortized cost which approximates market value.
Generally, trading in foreign securities, as well as corporate bonds and
U.S. Government securities, is substantially completed each day at various
times prior to the close of the New York Stock Exchange. The values of
such securities used in computing the net asset value of a Fund's shares
are determined as of such times. Foreign currency exchange rates are also
generally determined prior to the close of the New York Stock Exchange.
Occasionally, events affecting the values of such securities and such
exchange rates may occur between the times at which they are determined
and the close of the New York Stock Exchange which will not be reflected
in the computation of a Fund's net asset value. If events materially
affecting the value of such securities and exchange rates occur during
such period, then these securities and exchange rates will be valued at
their fair value as determined in good faith by or under the supervision
of the Board of Directors.
B. Foreign Currency Translations-Portfolio securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S.
dollar amounts at date of valuation. Purchases and sales of portfolio
securities and income items denominated in foreign currencies are
translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the respective dates of such
transactions.
C. Foreign Currency Contracts-A foreign currency contract is an obligation to
purchase or sell a specific currency for an agreed-upon price at a future
date. The Fund may enter into a foreign currency contract to attempt to
minimize the risk to the Fund from adverse changes in the relationship
between currencies. The Fund may also enter into a foreign currency
contract for the purchase or sale of a security denominated in a foreign
currency in order to "lock in'' the U.S. dollar price of that security.
The Fund could be exposed to risk if counterparties to the contracts are
unable to meet the terms of their contracts or if the value of the foreign
currency changes unfavorably.
Outstanding contracts at October 31, 1995 were as follows:

Financials
D. Securities Transactions, Investment Income and Distributions-Securities
transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains or
losses are computed on the basis of specific identification of the
securities sold. Interest income is recorded as earned from settlement date
and is recorded on an accrual basis. Dividend income and distributions to
shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. On October 31, 1995,
undistributed net investment income (loss) was increased by $113,809,
undistributed net realized gains decreased by $84,515, and paid-in capital
decreased by $29,294 in order to comply with the requirements of the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position
93-2. Net assets of the Fund were unaffected by the reclassifications
discussed above.
E. Federal Income Taxes-The Fund intends to comply with the requirements of
the Internal Revenue Code necessary to qualify as a regulated investment
company and, as such, will not be subject to federal income taxes on
otherwise taxable income (including net realized capital gains) which is
distributed to shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal income
taxes is recorded in the financial statements.
F. Expenses-Operating expenses directly attributable to a class of shares are
charged to that class' operations. Expenses which are applicable to both
classes, e.g. advisory fees, are allocated between them.
NOTE 2-ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The company has entered into a master investment advisory agreement with A I M
Advisors, Inc. ("AIM"). Under the terms of the master investment advisory
agreement, the Fund pays an advisory fee to AIM at the annual rate of 0.70% of
the first $1 billion of the Fund's average daily net assets, plus 0.65% of the
Fund's average daily net assets in excess of $1 billion. During the year ended
October 31, 1995, AIM waived fees of $55,087 and assumed expenses of $64,100
and $22,000 for the Class A shares and Class B shares, respectively. Under the
terms of the master investment advisory agreement, AIM will, if necessary,
reduce its fee or make payments to the Fund to the extent necessary to satisfy
any expense limitations imposed by the securities laws or regulations
thereunder of any state in which the Fund's shares are qualified for sale.
The Fund, pursuant to a master administrative services agreement with AIM,
has agreed to reimburse AIM for administrative costs incurred in providing
accounting services to the Fund. During the year ended October 31, 1995, AIM
was reimbursed $29,858 for such services.
The Fund, pursuant to a transfer agency and service agreement, has agreed
to reimburse A I M Fund Services, Inc. ("AFS") for certain costs incurred in
providing transfer agency services to the Fund. During the year ended October
31, 1995, the Fund reimbursed AFS $9,321 for such services.
The Company has entered into master distribution agreements with A I M
Distributors, Inc. ("AIM Distributors") to serve as the distributor for the
Class A shares and the Class B shares of the Fund. The Company has adopted
Plans pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act with respect to the Fund's
Class A shares (the "Class A Plan") and with respect to the Fund's Class B
shares (the "Class B Plan") (collectively the "Plans"). The Fund, pursuant to
the Class A Plan, will pay AIM Distributors an annual rate of 0.50% of the
average daily net assets attributable to the Class A shares. The Class A Plan
is designed to compensate AIM Distributors for certain promotional and other
sales related costs and to implement a program which provides periodic payments
to selected dealers and financial institutions, in amounts of up to 0.25% of
the average net assets of the Class A shares attributable to the customers of
such dealers or financial institutions, who furnish continuing personal
shareholder services to their customers who purchase and own Class A shares of
the Fund. The Fund, pursuant to the Class B Plan, will pay AIM Distributors at
an annual rate of 1.00% of the average daily net assets attributable to the
Class B shares. Of this amount, the Fund may pay a service fee of 0.25% of the
average daily net assets of the Class B shares to selected dealers and
financial institutions who furnish continuing personal shareholder services to
their customers who purchase and own Class B shares of the Fund. Any amounts
not paid as a service fee under such Plans would constitute an asset-based
sales charge. The Plans also impose a cap on the total sales charges, including
asset-based sales charges, that may be paid by the respective classes. AIM
Distributors may, from time to time, assign, transfer or pledge to one or more
designees, its rights to all or a designated portion of (a) compensation
received by AIM Distributors from the Fund pursuant to the Class B Plan (but
not AIM Distributors' duties and obligations pursuant to the Class B Plan) and
(b) any contingent deferred sales charges received by AIM Distributors related
to the Class B shares. During the year ended October 31, 1995, the Class A
shares and the Class B shares paid AIM Distributors $29,618 and $19,459,
respectively, as compensation under the Plans.
AIM Distributors received commissions of $27,115 from the sales of the
Class A shares of the Fund during the year ended October 31, 1995. Such
commissions are not an expense of the Fund. They are deducted from, and are not
included in, the proceeds from sales of Class A shares. During the year ended
October 31, 1995, AIM Distributors received commissions of $3,877 in contingent
deferred sales charges imposed on redemptions of Class B shares. Certain
officers and directors of the Company are officers and directors of AIM, AFS,
and AIM Distributors.
During the year ended October 31, 1995, the Fund incurred legal fees of
$2,160 for services rendered by the law firm of Kramer, Levin, Naftalis,
Nessen, Kamin & Frankel as counsel to the Company's directors. A member of that
firm is a director of the Company.
NOTE 3-DIRECTORS' FEES

not an "interested person" of AIM. The Company may invest directors' fees, if
so elected by a director, in mutual fund shares in accordance with a deferred
compensation plan.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
The Board of Directors and Shareholders of
AIM International Funds, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of the AIM
Global Income Fund (a portfolio of AIM International Funds, Inc.), including
the schedule of investments, as of October 31, 1995, and the related statement
of operations for the year then ended, and the statement of changes in net
assets and financial highlights for the year then ended and for the period
September 15, 1994 (date operations commenced) through October 31, 1994. These
financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the
Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial
highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosure in the financial
statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of
October 31, 1995, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of AIM
Global Income Fund as of October 31, 1995, the results of its operations for
the year then ended, and the changes in its net assets and the financial
highlights for the year then ended and for the period September 15, 1994 (date
