CHAIRMAN'S LETTER
Dear Fellow Shareholder:
Amid the recent turbulence in world investment markets, AIM
Global Income Fund delivered a solid cumulative return of 7.29%
[PHOTO for Class A shares during the six months ended April 30, 1995.
Charles T. AIM Global Income Fund's Class A share cumulative performance
Bauer, includes reinvested distributions of $0.43 per share and
Chairman of excludes the maximum sales charge of 4.75%. Cumulative return
the Board of for the Fund's Class B shares over the same period was 7.05%,
the Fund, including reinvested distributions of $0.41 per share and
APPEARS HERE] excluding the maximum contingent deferred sales charge of 5.00%.
We are pleased to note that your Fund decidedly outperformed
the 6.53% cumulative return for U.S. government securities
(including reinvested dividends) over the six months ended
April 30, 1995 as measured by Lehman Brothers. The Lehman
Brothers Government Bond Index is an unmanaged composite
generally representative of intermediate and long-term U.S.
Treasury and U.S. government agency securities. Of course, you
cannot make an investment in an index.
Salomon Brothers reported that its unmanaged World Government Bond Index of
long-term foreign government debt securities posted a cumulative return of
11.74% (including reinvested dividends) over the six months ended April 30,
1995, reflecting the benefit for foreign securities of a declining U.S. dollar.
AIM Global Income Fund has been well-received by investors. During the six
months ended April 30, 1995, net assets increased from $3 million to $7.6
million. In that same period, net asset value per Class A share increased to
$10.30 from $10.02, and net asset value per Class B share increased to $10.29
from $10.01.
For more detailed discussion of the market environment and the Fund's
investment strategy during the six months ended April 30, 1995, see DISCUSSION
AND ANALYSIS on the following page. However, it's important to keep recent
events in perspective. Current market activity is only mildly useful to
investors who, unlike speculators, have a long-term view toward investing for
their financial futures.
We are pleased with the progress of AIM Global Income Fund, one of our newest
funds. Indeed, the Fund has contributed significantly to our consistent growth.
At the end of March 1995, Lipper reported that A I M Advisors, Inc., was
managing approximately $30 billion in assets and was the 17th largest mutual
fund complex in the U.S. in terms of assets under management.
AIM has also continued its commitment to customer service by expanding our
shareholder service operations. We have improved our automated investor
telephone line so you can have easy access any time to information about your
AIM account as well as performance returns on AIM funds. You can call the AIM
Investor Line at 800-246-5463. Or if you prefer, you can speak to a customer
service representative by calling AIM Client Services at 800-959-4246 during
normal business hours.
We are pleased to send you this shareholder report concerning AIM Global
Income Fund. As always, we welcome any questions or comments you may have
regarding the Fund or your account. Thank you for your continued participation
in AIM Global Income Fund.
Respectfully submitted,
/s/ CHARLES T. BAUER

DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS
FINDING OPPORTUNITY IN TURBULENT MARKETS
-------------
World markets
took direction
from improving
economic conditions
in the U.S.
-------------
AIM Global Income Fund was designed to participate in promising markets around
the world. In the last six months, the advantage of such a strategy was clearly
apparent.
Bonds in the U.S. staged a dramatic recovery as encouraging reports indicated
that economic growth had slowed to a more sustainable rate while inflation
remained in check.
World markets took direction from improving market conditions in the U.S. With
inflation concerns abated, and economic growth moderated, global interest rates
began to decline. The U.S. dollar-based returns of foreign debt securities also
benefited from the persistent weakness in the U.S. dollar which continued to
test new lows against major world currencies.
Global bond prices responded with strong advances, particularly in Germany,
France, Canada, and the United Kingdom, where more than 33% of the Fund's
portfolio was invested. In the Pacific Rim, Japan, New Zealand, and Australia
also posted strong gains.
YOUR INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO
During the six months ended April 30, 1995, AIM Global Income Fund benefited
from the worldwide decline in interest rates. The Fund had significant
investments in core European markets which experienced both strong market
performance and currency appreciation. The Fund diversified into such markets as
New Zealand and Japan which also realized attractive gains. The Fund avoided
market declines triggered by the debt crisis in Mexico which flagged the
performance of higher-risk emerging markets in Latin America and Asia.
As of April 30, 1995, approximately 47% of the portfolio was invested in
domestic debt securities, with the remaining 53% invested in foreign bonds.
Investment-grade securities represented more than 77% of the portfolio's
assets, and 23% was invested in high-yield securities.
The Fund was structured so that the average quality rating of the securities
in its portfolio, including the high yield securities, was "A" or medium
investment grade as measured by credit rating agencies Standard & Poor's
Corporation and Moody's Investors Service.
During the period, the average duration of the portfolio modestly increased
to 4.35 years, with an average maturity of 6.27 years.
Of course, the portfolio's composition will fluctuate and there can be no
assurance that the Fund will continue to hold securities in any particular
country.
OUTLOOK FOR THE FUTURE
While the direction of the U.S. dollar remains uncertain, inflation is
apparently under control in the U.S., Germany, the United Kingdom, and other
key world economies. In these areas, economic growth is moderate and
sustainable, especially in the U.S., and global interest rates have stabilized
for the near term.
The current global economic climate should continue to favor global bond
markets and generate opportunities for fixed-income investors over the near
term.
Over the long term, the Fund should continue to offer investors the benefits
of diversification into global bond markets and currencies.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
April 30, 1995
(Unaudited)
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
priced 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 and "restricted securities"
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 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.
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.
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
10
<PAGE> 13
FINANCIALS
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 six months
ended April 30, 1995, AIM waived fees of $18,150 and assumed expenses of
$48,100 and $9,000 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 Company has entered into a master administrative services agreement
with AIM with respect to the Fund. This agreement provides that AIM may
perform, or arrange for the performance of, certain accounting, shareholder
servicing and other administrative services to the Fund which are not required
to be performed by AIM under the master investment advisory agreement. For such
services, AIM is entitled to receive from the Fund reimbursement of AIM's cost
or such reasonable compensation as is approved by the Company's Board of
Directors. During the six months ended April 30, 1995, AIM was reimbursed
$4,654 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 six months ended
April 30, 1995, the Fund reimbursed AFS $2,387 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. During
the six months ended April 30, 1995, the Class A shares and the Class B shares
paid AIM Distributors $10,313 and $5,302, respectively, as compensation under
the Plans.
AIM Distributors received commissions of $11,324 from the sales of
the Class A shares of the Fund during the six months ended April 30, 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 six months
ended April 30, 1995, AIM Distributors received commissions of $1,509 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 six months ended April 30, 1995, the Fund incurred legal fees
of $508 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
Directors' fees represent remuneration paid or accrued to each director who is
not an "interested person" of the Company. The Company may invest directors'
fees, if so elected by a director, in mutual fund shares in accordance with a
deferred compensation plan.
NOTE 4-INVESTMENT SECURITIES
The aggregate amount of investment securities (other than short-term
securities) purchased and sold by the Fund during the six months ended April
30, 1995 was $10,017,841 and $5,350,700, respectively.
