Annual Report

This report provides management’s discussion of fund performance for AllianceBernstein Global High Income Fund (the “Fund”) for the annual reporting period ended March 31, 2016. The Fund is a closed-end fund and its shares of common stock trade on the New York Stock Exchange.

Investment Objective and Policies

The Fund seeks high current income, and secondarily, capital appreciation. The Fund invests without limit in securities denominated in non-US currencies as well as those denominated in the US dollar. The Fund may also invest, without limit, in sovereign debt securities issued by emerging and developed nations and in debt securities of US and non-US corporate issuers. For more information regarding the Fund’s risks, please see “Disclosures and Risks” on pages 3-4 and “Note E—Risks Involved in Investing in the Fund” of the Notes to Financial Statements on pages 96-99.

Investment Results

The table on page 5 shows the Fund’s performance compared with its blended benchmark and its components for the six- and 12-month periods ended March 31, 2016. The blended benchmark is composed of equal weightings of the JPMorgan Government Bond Index-Emerging Markets (“JPM GBI-EM”, local currency-denominated), the JPMorgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Global (“JPM EMBI Global”), and the Barclays US Corporate High Yield (“HY”) 2% Issuer Capped Index.

The Fund underperformed the blended benchmark for both periods. Sector positioning detracted for both

periods, mainly from an underweight to quasi-sovereigns and emerging-market sovereigns, relative to the benchmark. Security selection detracted for both periods, specifically within investment-grade corporates and emerging-market sovereigns. Currency positioning detracted for the six-month period, yet contributed for the 12-month period. For the six-month period, an overweight US dollar position, as well as underweight positions in the Brazilian real and Malaysian ringgit, detracted. During the 12-month period an overweight US dollar position along with underweights in the Mexican peso and South African rand contributed. Yield-curve positioning detracted for the six-month period, mainly from positioning on the long end of the US yield curve, yet was immaterial to performance for the 12-month period.

The Fund utilized derivatives including variance swaps and written options for investment purposes, and credit default swaps for hedging and investment purposes, which added to performance for both periods, in absolute terms. Futures for hedging purposes had an immaterial impact for the six-month period and detracted during the 12-month period; currency forwards for hedging and investment purposes detracted during the six-month period and added during the 12-month period; purchased options for investment purposes detracted during both periods; interest-rate swaps for hedging purposes added during the six-month period and detracted during the 12-month period; total return swaps for investment purposes had an immaterial impact for both periods.

Market Review and Investment Strategy

Bond markets were volatile for the six- and 12-month periods ended March 31, 2016, as growth trends and monetary policies in the world’s biggest economies headed in different directions. Inflation continued to fall throughout the developed world, driven primarily by decreasing commodity prices. In February oil prices reached $26 per barrel, their lowest level since May 2003, ultimately ending the period at $38 per barrel. These dynamics caused volatility within government bond yields, with the yield on the US 10-Year Treasury ranging from 2.5% to 1.7%, ultimately ending the period at 1.8%. Adding to the volatility, the US Federal Reserve raised the target on official rates by 25 basis points in December, lifting the range to 0.25%-0.50%, which was the first rate hike in nine years.

In other markets, including Europe and Japan, further accommodative monetary policy measures were introduced. The European Central Bank delivered further quantitative easing measures by cutting the deposit rate and increasing monthly bond purchases. Additionally, the Bank of Japan decreased its deposit rate early in 2016.

In emerging markets, political and economic instability across regions

negatively affected the investment environment, as slower growth in China, Brazil and other emerging-market economies caused further pressure on credit markets throughout most of the reporting period. However, in mid-February, many risk assets rallied on the back of oil prices moving higher. March 2016 was the strongest month for high-yield securities in almost five years.

For the 12-month period, investment-grade bonds outperformed US high-yield bonds. Emerging-market hard currency government bonds (US dollar-denominated debt instruments issued by emerging-market sovereign and quasi-sovereign entities) outperformed the US 10-Year Treasury. However, emerging-market local currency government bonds (local emerging-market bonds denominated in domestic currency of issuing country) underperformed the US 10-Year Treasury. Since fixed-income markets were volatile during both the six- and 12-month periods, the Fund was positioned at the lower end of its risk range, with underweights to emerging-market sovereigns and emerging-market currencies. However, towards the end of the reporting period, mainly during March, the risk budget of the Fund was slightly raised by increasing exposure to emerging-market sovereigns and emerging-market currencies.

Benchmark Disclosure

The JPM® GBI-EM (local currency-denominated), the JPM® EMBI Global, and the Barclays US Corporate HY 2% Issuer Capped Index are unmanaged and do not reflect fees and expenses associated with the active management of a fund portfolio. The JPM GBI-EM represents the performance of local currency government bonds issued by emerging markets. The JPM EMBI Global (market-capitalization weighted) represents the performance of US dollar-denominated Brady bonds, Eurobonds, and trade loans issued by sovereign and quasi-sovereign entities. The Barclays US Corporate HY 2% Issuer Capped Index is the 2% Issuer Capped component of the US Corporate High Yield Index, which represents the performance of fixed-income securities having a maximum quality rating of Ba1, a minimum amount outstanding of $150 million, and at least one year to maturity. An investor cannot invest directly in an index, and its results are not indicative of the performance of any specific investment, including the Fund.

A Word About Risk

Market Risk: The value of the Fund’s assets will fluctuate as the stock or bond market fluctuates. The value of its investments may decline, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably, simply because of economic changes or other events that affect large portions of the market.

Interest Rate Risk: Changes in interest rates will affect the value of investments in fixed-income securities. When interest rates rise, the value of investments in fixed-income securities tends to fall and this decrease in value may not be offset by higher income from new investments. Interest rate risk is generally greater for fixed-income securities with longer maturities or durations.

Credit Risk: An issuer or guarantor of a fixed-income security, or the counterparty to a derivatives or other contract, may be unable or unwilling to make timely payments of interest or principal, or to otherwise honor its obligations. The issuer or guarantor may default, causing a loss of the full principal amount of a security. The degree of risk for a particular security may be reflected in its credit rating. There is the possibility that the credit rating of a fixed-income security may be downgraded after purchase, which may adversely affect the value of the security.

Below Investment Grade Securities: Investments in fixed-income securities with lower ratings (commonly known as “junk bonds”) tend to have a higher probability that an issuer will default or fail to meet its payment obligations. These securities may be subject to greater price volatility due to such factors as specific corporate developments, interest rate sensitivity, negative perceptions of the junk bond market generally and less secondary market liquidity.

Inflation Risk: This is the risk that the value of assets or income from investments will be less in the future as inflation decreases the value of money. As inflation increases, the value of the Fund’s assets can decline as can the value of the Fund’s distributions. This risk is significantly greater if the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in fixed-income securities with longer maturities.

Disclosures and Risks


DISCLOSURES AND RISKS

(continued from previous page)

 

Foreign (Non-US) Risk: Investments in securities of non-US issuers may involve more risk than those of US issuers. These securities may fluctuate more widely in price and may be less liquid due to adverse market, economic, political, regulatory or other factors.

Emerging Market Risk: Investments in emerging-market countries may have more risk because the markets are less developed and less liquid as well as being subject to increased economic, political, regulatory or other uncertainties.

Currency Risk: Fluctuations in currency exchange rates may negatively affect the value of the Fund’s investments or reduce its returns.

Leverage Risk: To the extent the Fund uses leveraging techniques, its NAV may be more volatile because leverage tends to exaggerate the effect of changes in interest rates and any increase or decrease in the value of the Fund’s investments.

Diversification Risk: The Fund may have more risk because it is “non-diversified”, meaning that it can invest more of its assets in a smaller number of issuers and that adverse changes in the value of one security could have a more significant effect on the Fund’s NAV.

Derivatives Risk: Investments in derivatives may be illiquid, difficult to price and leveraged so that small changes may produce disproportionate losses for the Fund, and may be subject to counterparty risk to a greater degree than more traditional investments.

Management Risk: The Fund is subject to management risk because it is an actively managed investment fund. AllianceBernstein L.P. will apply its investment techniques and risk analyses in making investment decisions, but there is no guarantee that its techniques will produce the intended results. The Fund may invest in mortgage-backed and/or other asset-backed securities, including securities backed by mortgages and assets with an international or emerging-markets origination and securities backed by non-performing loans at the time of investment. Investments in mortgage-backed and other asset-backed securities are subject to certain additional risks. The value of these securities may be particularly sensitive to changes in interest rates. These risks include “extension risk”, which is the risk that, in periods of rising interest rates, issuers may delay the payment of principal, and “prepayment risk”, which is the risk that, in periods of falling interest rates, issuers may pay principal sooner than expected, exposing the Fund to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. Mortgage-backed securities offered by nongovernmental issuers and other asset-backed securities may be subject to other risks, such as higher rates of default in the mortgages or assets backing the securities or risks associated with the nature and servicing of mortgages or assets backing the securities.

These risks are fully discussed in the Fund’s prospectus. As with all investments, you may lose money by investing in the Fund.
