First Trust/Aberdeen Global Opportunity Income Fund (the “Fund”)
(NYSE: FAM), a Massachusetts business trust, announced today that
the Fund’s annual meeting of Shareholders originally scheduled to
be held on March 26, 2020 will be postponed to Tuesday, April 7,
2020 at 12:00 p.m. Central Time (the “Annual Meeting”). The January
6, 2020 record date for determining shareholders entitled to vote
remains unchanged.
The Annual Meeting has been postponed due to the public health
impact of the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) and the “shelter in
place” order from the Governor of the State of Illinois. This
change has been made out of an abundance of caution and is intended
to support the health and well-being of the Fund’s
shareholders.
Shareholders who have not yet voted on matters to be considered
at the Annual Meeting by submitting their proxies are encouraged to
do so. The Board encourages you to vote FOR the election of
Robert F. Keith as a Class I Trustee and AGAINST the
non-binding shareholder proposal.
The Fund is a diversified, closed-end management investment
company. The Fund’s primary investment objective is to provide
current income. The Fund’s secondary objective is capital
appreciation. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objectives
by investing in the world bond markets through a diversified
portfolio of investment grade and below-investment grade government
and corporate debt securities.
The Proxy Statement is available on the Internet at
