Lazard Global Total Return & Income Fund, Inc.
Investment Overview

Dear Shareholder,

We are pleased to present this Annual Report for Lazard Global Total Return & Income Fund, Inc. (“LGI” or the “Fund”), for the year ended Decem-ber 31, 2006. The Fund is a diversified, closed-end management investment company that began trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) on April 28, 2004. Its ticker symbol is “LGI.”

The Fund has been in operation for over two and a half years, and we are very pleased with LGI’s performance for the year and since the Fund’s inception. We believe that the Fund has provided investors with an attractive yield and diversification, backed by the extensive experience, commitment, and professional management of Lazard Asset Management LLC (the “Investment Manager” or “Lazard”).

Portfolio Update (as of December 31, 2006)

For the fourth quarter of 2006, the Fund’s Net Asset Value (“NAV”) performance increased 8.6%, which compares favorably with the Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI^®) World^®Index (the ”Index”) return of 8.4% . The one-year NAV return of 24.5% comfortably beat the Index return of 20.1% . In addition, the Fund’s since-inception annualized NAV return of 16.6% outperformed the Index return of 15.2% . Shares of LGI ended the year with a market price of $22.58, representing a 5.0% discount to the Fund’s NAV of $23.77. The Fund’s net assets were $228.3 million as of December 31, 2006, with total leveraged assets of $317.6 million, representing 28.1% leverage.

We believe that LGI’s investment thesis remains sound, as demonstrated by the Fund’s favorable NAV performance for the fourth quarter, the year, and since inception. Fourth quarter performance was positively affected by stock selection in the technology and consumer staples sectors. Detracting from fourth quarter performance was stock selection in Japanese financials. Returns for the smaller, short-duration¹emerging market currency and debt portion of the Fund were strong throughout the fourth quarter, and have been a meaningful positive contributor to performance in 2006 and since inception.

As of December 31, 2006, 64.2% of the Fund’s total leveraged assets consisted of global equities and 34.4% consisted of emerging markets currency and debt instruments, while the remaining 1.4% consisted of cash and other assets.

Declaration of Dividends

Pursuant to LGI’s level distribution policy, the Fund’s Board of Directors has declared a monthly dividend distribution of $0.1042 per share on the Fund’s outstanding stock each month since inception. In September and December of 2006, the Fund also made additional, required distributions of accumulated income and net realized capital gains. The cumulative distributions for the year totaled $2.339 per share and were composed of $1.116 of net investment income (48%), and $1.223 of net realized long-term capital gains (52%). There was no return of capital in 2006 and the Fund has not returned capital to investors since its inception. The $2.339 distribution represents a market yield of 10.4%, based on the share price of $22.58 at the close of NYSE trading on December 31, 2006. The amounts and sources of distributions reported here are not intended for tax reporting purposes. Shareholders should refer to their 2006 Form 1099-DIV, which reports these distributions for income tax filing purposes.

Message from the Portfolio Managers

Global Equity Portfolio
(64.2% of total leveraged assets)

The Fund’s equity portfolio is invested primarily in equity securities of large, well-known global compa-

Lazard Global Total Return & Income Fund, Inc
Investment Overview (continued)

nies with strong financial productivity at attractive valuations. Examples include GlaxoSmithKline, a global research-based pharmaceutical company based in the United Kingdom; Bank of America, a holding company that provides banking and non-banking financial services and products in the United States and internationally; Nokia Corp., the Finnish manufacturer of mobile telephones; and Total SA, the French-based energy supplier that explores for, produces, refines, transports, and markets oil and natural gas.

Of the companies held in the global equity portfolio at December 31, 2006, 43.7% of these stocks were based in North America, 26.0% were based in Continental Europe (not including the U.K.), 18.7% were from the U.K., and 11.6% were from Japan. The global equity portfolio is similarly well diversified across a number of industry sectors. The top two sectors, by weight, at December 31, 2006, were financials (30.3%), which includes banks, insurance companies, and financial services companies, and information technology (19.4%), a sector that encompasses industries involved in the design, development, installation, and implementation of information systems and applications, including hardware, software, IT services, and media-related companies. Other sectors in the portfolio include consumer discretionary, consumer staples, energy, health care, industrials, and telecommunications services. The average dividend yield on the global equity portfolio was approximately 2.0% as of December 31, 2006.

Global Equity Market Review
Global stocks performed well in 2006, overcoming concerns about the slowing U.S. housing market, stubbornly high oil prices, and the sustainability of strong corporate-earnings growth. As has been the case, consistently, in recent years, much of these gains came during a strong fourth-quarter rally, which saw many equity indices, including the Dow Jones Industrials^®and the MSCI World Index, finally exceed the peaks reached in early 2000 during the technology bubble. During the fourth quarter, economically sensitive groups, such as consumer discretionary and materials, outperformed, as did sectors of the market with higher dividend yields, such as telecom services and utilities. Energy shares performed roughly in line with the broad market, as crude oil prices stabilized after a sharp downturn in the third quarter. Health care was a notable laggard, as a few European pharmaceutical stocks were hurt by setbacks in getting major new drugs approved.

All regions were positive in the fourth quarter, with Europe, the United Kingdom, Australasia, and the Far East (other than Japan) outperforming the broad market. The United States and Japan underperformed the Index.

What Helped and What Hurt LGI
During the fourth quarter of 2006, the portfolio benefited from stock selection in technology, as shares of Cisco posted solid gains. With some of the best fundamentals in the technology sector, the company reported 16% year-on-year revenue growth in the period, due to broad-based strength across all geographies, customer segments, and products. Stock selection in consumer staples also helped portfolio performance, as shares of Gallaher rose sharply. This U.K-based tobacco company had received a takeover bid from Japan Tobacco. The Fund sold its position of Gallaher in December. Performance also benefited from continued strength in telecom services holdings, such as Voda-fone. Conversely, returns were hurt by continued weakness in Japanese financial stocks.

Emerging Market Currency and Debt Portfolio
(34.4% of total leveraged assets)

The Fund also seeks enhanced income through investing in high-yielding, short-duration (typically, under one year) emerging market forward currency contracts and local currency debt instruments. As of December 31, 2006, this portfolio consisted primarily of forward currency contracts (81.8%), with a smaller allocation to sovereign debt obligations (14.9%) and structured notes (3.3%) . The average duration of the emerging market currency and debt portfolio was approximately 4.7 months, as of December 31, with an average yield of 7.9% ².

As of December 31, the Fund’s emerging market currency and debt holdings were highly diversified across 28 countries within Asia (27.7%), Latin America (23.8%), Africa (15.7%), the Commonwealth of Independent States and Baltic countries (12.8%), Eastern Europe (12.5%), and the Middle East (7.5%) .

Lazard Global Total Return & Income Fund, Inc.
Investment Overview (continued)

Emerging Market Currency and Debt Market Review Emerging local markets closed the year with a strong performance in the last quarter of 2006, with all three months posting solid returns. Overall, global monetary conditions have tightened. Markets have increasingly begun to focus on fundamentals, specifically the credibility of emerging market countries’ monetary policy and balance of payments, versus yield-seeking capital flows. We see an increased tolerance for emerging market currency appreciation, as the tendency for central banks to intervene has lessened.

We believe the outlook for emerging local markets is constructive, with potential for positive attribution, for the coming year, from both interest rate carry and modest currency appreciation in certain regions. With most economies characterized by solid balance of payments, strong growth, and orthodox fiscal and monetary policies, capital inflows also continue at a brisk pace. Overall, emerging markets have transitioned in the past few years from being perennial capital seekers (i.e. to finance twin deficits, excess consumption) to playing the role of capital providers of their surplus savings. This has left many countries in the investment universe well placed to weather sudden shocks to risk appetite or other factors behind any sharp contraction in global capital flows.

What Helped and Hurt LGI
Good country selection in Asia helped the Fund’s emerging market currency and debt portfolio, with specially strong contributions from Indonesia, the Philippines, and Singapore. Also helping the portfolio was its lack of exposure to underperforming China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong. Latin America was also a leading contributor to performance, especially the portfolio’s heavy Brazilian exposure. Brazil’s local market gains stemmed from currency appreciation, high carry, and a yield curve rally alongside disinflation. High U.S. dollar inflows from Brazil’s record trade surplus, foreign direct investment, and portfolio capital provide ongoing fundamental support, even as the country’s Central Bank engages in direct intervention to manage the pace of real gains. In Eastern Europe, sizeable exposure to Romania was also a significant contributor to the portfolio as that country’s National Bank tightened monetary policy.

Detracting from performance was a small Icelandic exposure, as large capital outflows overwhelmed thin market depth, resulting in sharp krona depreciation. Both Zambia and Botswana detracted from portfolio performance. The Zambian kwacha depreciated in the second half of 2006 on election-related sentiment and a fall in copper prices from mid-year record levels (metals account for 70% of Zambia’s exports). Despite high local interest rates, exposure to the Botswana pula exhibited correlated weakness to the South African rand’s decline, although of a smaller magnitude.

Lazard Global Total Return & Income Fund, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2006

1. Organization

Lazard Global Total Return & Income Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) was incorporated in Maryland on January 27, 2004 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as a diversified, closed-end management investment company. The Fund trades on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the ticker symbol LGI and commenced operations on April 28, 2004. The Fund’s investment objective is total return, consisting of capital appreciation and income.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies:

(a) Valuation of Investments—Market values for securities are generally based on the last reported sales price on the principal exchange or market on which the security is traded, generally as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) on each valuation date. Any securities not listed, for which current over-the-counter market quotations or bids are readily available, are valued at the last quoted bid price or, if available, the mean of two such prices. Forward currency contracts are valued at the current cost of offsetting the contract. Securities listed on foreign exchanges are valued at the last reported sales price except as described below; securities listed on foreign exchanges that are not traded on the valuation date are valued at the last quoted bid price.

Bonds and other fixed-income securities that are not exchange-traded are valued on the basis of prices provided by pricing services which are based primarily on institutional trading in similar groups of securities, or by using brokers’ quotations.

If a significant event affecting the value of securities occurs between the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded and the time when the Fund’s net asset value is calculated, or when current market quotations otherwise are determined not to be readily available or reliable, such securities will be valued at their fair values as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the Board of Directors. Fair valuing of foreign securities may be determined with the assistance of a pricing service, using correlations between the movement of prices of such securities and indices of domestic securities and other appropriate indicators, such as closing market prices of relevant ADRs or futures contracts. The Valuation Committee of the Investment Manager may evaluate a variety of factors to determine the fair value of securities for which current market quotations are determined not to be readily available or reliable. These factors include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the value of comparable securities, observations from financial institutions and relevant news events. Input from the Investment Manager’s analysts will also be considered. The effect of using fair value pricing is that the net asset value of the Fund will reflect the affected securities’ values as determined in the judgment of the Board of Directors, or its designee, instead of being determined by the market. Using a fair value pricing methodology to price securities may result in a value that is different from the most recent closing price of a security and from the prices used by other investment companies to calculate their portfolios’ net asset values.

(b) Portfolio Securities Transactions and Investment Income—Portfolio securities transactions are accounted for on trade date. Realized gain (loss) on sales of investments are recorded on a specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income is accrued daily. The Fund amortizes premiums and accretes discounts on fixed-income securities using the effective yield method.

(c) Repurchase Agreements—In connection with transactions in repurchase agreements, the Fund’s custodian takes possession of the underlying collateral securities, the fair value of which at all times is required to be at least equal to the principal amount, plus accrued interest, of the repurchase transaction. If the seller defaults, and the fair value of the collateral declines, realization of the collateral by the Fund may be delayed or limited.

(d) Securities Lending—The Fund may lend portfolio securities to qualified borrowers in order to earn additional income. The terms of the lending agreements require that loans are secured at all times by cash, U.S. Government securities or irrevocable letters of credit in an amount at least equal to 102% of the market value of domestic securities loaned (105% in the case of foreign securities), plus accrued interest and dividends, determined on a daily basis. Cash collateral received is invested in State Street Navigator Securities Lending Prime Portfolio, a regulated investment company offered by State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”). If the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, the Fund could experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned or in gaining access to the collateral.

At December 31, 2006, the value of the securities on loan was $20,278,657 and corresponding cash collateral received was $20,750,690.

Lazard Global Total Return & Income Fund, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
December 31, 2006

In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, cash received as collateral for securities lending transactions which is invested in income producing securities is included in the Portfolio of Investments. The related amount payable upon the return of the securities on loan, where cash is received as collateral, is shown on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

(e) Leveraging—The Fund intends to use leverage to invest Fund assets in currency investments, primarily using forward currency contracts and by borrowing under a credit facility with State Street, up to a maximum of 33¹/₃% of the Fund’s total leveraged assets. If the assets of the Fund decline due to market conditions such that this 33¹/₃% threshold will be exceeded, leverage risk will increase.

If the Fund is able to realize a higher return on the leveraged portion of its investment portfolio than the cost of such leverage together with other related expenses, the effect of the leverage will be to cause the Fund to realize a higher net return than if the Fund were not so leveraged. There is no assurance that any leveraging strategy the Fund employs will be successful.

Using leverage is a speculative investment technique and involves certain risks. These include higher volatility of net asset value, the likelihood of more volatility in the market value of Common Stock and, with respect to borrowings, the possibility either that the Fund’s return will fall if the interest rate on any borrowings rises, or that income will fluctuate because the interest rate of borrowings varies.

If the market value of the Fund’s portfolio declines, the leverage will result in a greater decrease in net asset value than if the Fund were not leveraged. A greater net asset value decrease also will tend to cause a greater decline in the market price of the Fund’s Common Stock. To the extent that the Fund is required or elects to prepay any borrowings, the Fund may need to liquidate investments to fund such prepayments. Liquidation at times of adverse economic conditions may result in capital losses and may reduce returns.

(f) Foreign Currency Translation and Forward Currency Contracts—The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Portfolio securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated daily into U.S. dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange. Purchases and sales of securities, income receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rates on the respective transaction dates.

The Fund does not isolate the portion of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in their market prices. Such fluctuations are included in net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments. Net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions represents net foreign currency gain (loss) from forward currency contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, currency gain (loss) realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amount of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund’s accounting records and the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign currency gain (loss) arises from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities, as a result of changes in exchange rates.

A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell currency at a set price on a future date. Upon entering into these contracts, risks may arise from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of the foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.

The U.S. dollar value of forward currency contracts is determined using forward exchange rates provided by quotation services. Daily fluctuations in the value of such contracts are recorded as unrealized gain (loss). When the contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain (loss) equal to the difference between the value at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. Such gain (loss) is disclosed in the realized and unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency in the Fund’s accompanying Statement of Operations.

(g) Structured Investments—The Fund may invest in structured investments, whose values are linked either directly or inversely to changes in foreign currencies, interest rates, commodities, indices, or other underlying instruments. The Fund may use these investments to increase or decrease its exposure to different underlying instruments, to gain exposure to markets that might be difficult to invest in through conventional securities or for other purposes. Structured investments may be more volatile than their underlying instruments, but any loss is limited to the amount of the original investment.

(h) Federal Income Taxes—The Fund’s policy is to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under Sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and to distribute all of its taxable income, including any net realized capital gains, to stockholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

Lazard Global Total Return & Income Fund, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
December 31, 2006

At December 31, 2006, the Fund had no unused capital loss carryforwards.

Under current tax law, certain capital and net foreign currency losses realized after October 31 within the taxable year may be deferred and treated as occurring on the first day of the following tax year. For the tax year ended December 31, 2006, the Fund had no net capital and currency losses arising between November 1, 2006 and December 31, 2006.

(i) Dividends and Distributions—The Fund intends to declare and to pay dividends monthly from net investment income. Distributions to stockholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. During any particular year, net realized gains from investment transactions in excess of available capital loss carryforwards would be taxable to the Fund if not distributed. The Fund intends to declare and distribute these amounts, at least annually, to stockholders; however, to avoid taxation, a second distribution may be required.

Income dividends and capital gains distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These book/tax differences, which may result in distribution reclassifications, are primarily due to differing treatments of foreign currency transactions. Book/tax differences relating to stockholder distributions may result in reclassifications among certain capital accounts.

The Fund has implemented a Level Distribution Policy to seek to maintain a stable monthly distribution, subject to approval and oversight of the Fund’s Board of Directors. Under the Fund’s Level Distribution Policy, the Fund intends to make regular monthly distributions at a fixed rate per share. If for any monthly distribution, net investment income and net realized short-term capital gain were less than the amount of the distribution, the difference would generally be distributed from the Fund’s assets. In addition, in order to make such distributions, the Fund might have to sell a portion of its investment portfolio at a time when independent investment judgment might not dictate such actions.

The tax character of dividends and distributions paid during the years ended December 31 was as follows:

			Long-Term
	Ordinary Income		Capital Gain
2006		2005	2006	2005
	$10,717,512	$10,926,802	$11,751,766	$1,083,586

At December 31, 2006, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were $2,295,161 of undistributed long-term capital gain and $42,903,057 of net unrealized appreciation.

(j) Expense Reductions—When the Fund leaves excess cash in a demand deposit account, it may receive credits which are available to offset custody expenses. The Statement of Operations reports gross custody expenses, and reports the amount of such credits separately as an expense reduction.

(k) Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires the Fund to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

3. Investment Management Agreement

The Fund has entered into an investment management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with the Investment Manager. Pursuant to the Management Agreement, the Investment Manager regularly provides the Fund with investment research, advice and supervision and furnishes continuously an investment program for the Fund consistent with its investment objective and policies, including the purchase, retention and disposition of securities.

The Fund has agreed to pay the Investment Manager an annual investment management fee of 0.85% of the Fund’s average daily “Total Leveraged Assets” (the Fund’s total assets including Financial Leverage (defined below)) for the services and facilities provided by the Investment Manager, payable on a monthly basis. The fee paid to the Investment Manager will be higher when the Investment Manager uses Currency Commitments and Borrowings (“Financial Leverage”) to make Currency Investments, rather than by reducing the percentage of “Net Assets” (the Fund’s assets without taking into account Financial Leverage) invested in Global Equity Investments for the purposes of making Currency Investments. “Global Equity Investments” refers to investments in the Fund’s global equity strategy consisting of equity securities of companies with market capitalizations of $5 billion or greater domiciled in those countries that comprise the Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI^®) World^®Index. “Currency Investments” refers to investments in the Fund’s emerging income strategy, consisting of emerging market currencies (primarily by entering into forward currency contracts), or instruments whose

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
December 31, 2006

value is derived from the performance of an underlying emerging market currency, but also may invest in debt obligations, including government, government agency and corporate obligations and structured notes denominated in emerging market currencies. “Currency Commitments” are the aggregate financial exposures created by forward currency contracts in excess of that represented in the Fund’s Net Assets, and “Borrowings” refers to the borrowings under the Fund’s credit facility. Assuming Financial Leverage in the amount of 33¹/₃% of the Fund’s Total Leveraged Assets, the annual fee payable to the Investment Manager would be 1.28% of Net Assets (i.e., not including amounts attributable to Financial Leverage).

The following is an example of this calculation of the Investment Manager’s fee, using very simple illustrations. If the Fund had assets of $1,000, it could invest $1,000 in Global Equity Investments and enter into $500 in forward currency contracts (because the Fund would not have to pay money at the time it enters into the currency contracts). Similarly, the Fund could invest $1,000 in Global Equity Investments, borrow $500 and invest the $500 in foreign currency denominated bonds. In either case, the Investment Manager’s fee would be calculated based on $1,500 of assets, because the fee is calculated based on Total Leveraged Assets (Net Assets plus Financial Leverage). In our example, the Financial Leverage is in the form of either the forward currency contracts (Currency Commitments) or investments from Borrowings. The amount of the Financial Leverage outstanding, and therefore the amount of Total Leveraged Assets on which the Investment Manager’s fee is based, fluctuates daily based on changes in value of the Fund’s portfolio holdings, including changes in value of the currency involved in the forward currency contracts and foreign currency denominated bonds acquired with the proceeds of Borrowings. However, the Investment Manager’s fee will be the same regardless of whether Currency Investments are made with Currency Commitments or with Borrowings (without taking into account the cost of Borrowings).

This method of calculating the Investment Manager’s fee is different than the way closed-end investment companies typically calculate management fees. Traditionally, closed-end investment companies calculate management fees based on Net Assets plus Borrowings (excluding Financial Leverage obtained through Currency Commitments). The Investment Manager’s fee is different because the Fund’s leverage strategy is different than the leverage strategy employed by many other closed-end investment companies. Although the Fund may employ Borrowings in making Currency Investments, the Fund’s leverage strategy relies primarily on Currency Commitments, rather than relying exclusively on borrowing money or/and issuing preferred stock, as is the strategy employed by most closed-end investment companies. The Investment Manager’s fee would be lower if its fee were calculated only on Net Assets plus Borrowings, because the Investment Manager would not earn fees on Currency Investments made with Currency Commitments (forward currency contracts). Using the example above, where the Fund has assets of $1,000 and invests $1,000 in Global Equity Investments and $500 in forward currency contracts, the following table illustrates how the Investment Manager’s fee would be different if it did not earn management fees on these types of Currency Investments. A discussion of the most recent review and approval by the Fund’s Board of Directors of the Management Agreement (including the method of calculating the Investment Manager’s fee) is included under “Other Information—Board Consideration of Management Agreement.”

Currency Commitments	$ 500	$ 500
Assets used to calculate
management fee	$1,500	$1,000
Management fee (0.85%)	$12.75	$ 8.50

Investment Manager Fee Conflict Risk—The fee paid to the Investment Manager for investment management services will be higher when the Fund uses Financial Leverage, whether through forward currency contracts or Borrowings, because the fee paid will be calculated on the basis of the Fund’s assets including this Financial Leverage. Consequently, the Investment Manager may have a financial interest for the Fund to utilize such Financial Leverage, which may create a conflict of interest between the Investment Manager and the stockholders of the Fund.

The Fund has implemented procedures to monitor this potential conflict.

4. Administrative Agreement

The Fund has entered into an administrative agreement with State Street to provide certain administrative services. The Fund bears the cost of such services at a fixed annual rate of $42,500, plus 0.02% of average daily net assets up to $1 billion and 0.01% of average daily net assets over $1 billion.

December 31, 2006

5. Directors’ Compensation

Certain Directors of the Fund are officers of the Investment Manager. In 2006, the Fund paid each Director who is not an employee or an affiliated person of the Investment Manager its allocated portion of a fixed fee of $50,000 per year, plus $2,500 per meeting attended ($1,000 per meeting attended by telephone) for the Fund, The Lazard Funds, Inc., Lazard Retirement Series, Inc. and Lazard World Dividend & Income Fund, Inc. (collectively, the “Lazard Funds”), each a registered management investment company advised by the Investment Manager, and reimbursed such Directors for travel and other out of pocket expenses. In addition, the Chairman of the Audit Committees for the Lazard Funds also received an annual fee of $5,000.

6. Securities Transactions and Transactions with Affiliates

Purchases and sales of portfolio securities (excluding short-term securities) for the year ended December 31, 2006 were $82,193,500 and $104,196,645, respectively.

For the year ended December 31, 2006, no brokerage commissions were paid to affiliates of the Investment Manager or other affiliates of the Fund for portfolio transactions executed on behalf of the Fund.

7. Line of Credit

The Fund has a $40 million Line of Credit Agreement (the “Agreement”) with State Street primarily to borrow to invest Fund assets in Currency Investments. The Fund may borrow the lesser of $40 million or 33¹/₃% of its Total Leveraged Assets. Interest on borrowings is payable at the Federal Funds rate plus 0.50%, on an annualized basis. Under the Agreement, the Fund has agreed to pay a 0.10% per annum fee on the unused portion of the commitment, payable quarterly in arrears. During the year ended December 31, 2006, the Fund had borrowings under the Agreement as follows:

Average Daily	Maximum Daily	Weighted Average
Loan Balance	Loan Outstanding	Interest Rate
$5,466,250	$17,250,000	5.18%

8. Foreign Securities Investment Risks

The Fund invests in securities of foreign entities and instruments denominated in foreign currencies which involve risks not typically involved in domestic investments. Foreign investments carry special risks, such as exposure to currency fluctuations, less developed or less efficient trading markets, political instability, a lack of company information, differing auditing and legal standards and, potentially, less liquidity. The Fund’s investments in emerging markets are exposed to additional volatility. The Fund’s performance will be influenced by political, social and economic factors affecting emerging markets. Emerging market countries generally have economic structures that are less diverse and mature, and political systems that are less stable, than those of developed countries.

9. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) released FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Adoption of FIN 48 is required beginning with the last net asset value per share calculation in the first required financial statement reporting period for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and is to be applied to all open tax years as of the effective date. Management is currently assessing the impact that FIN 48 will have on its financial statements.

On September 20, 2006, the FASB released Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 establishes an authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value, and requires additional disclosures about fair-value measurements. The application of FAS 157 is required for fiscal years beginning after Novem-ber 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is evaluating the application of FAS 157 to the Fund, and believes the impact resulting from the adoption of FAS 157 will be limited to expanded disclosures in the Fund’s financial statements.

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Lazard Global Total Return & Income Fund, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Lazard Global Total Return & Income Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”), including the schedule of investments, as of December 31, 2006, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented. The financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). 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. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2006 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. 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 Lazard Global Total Return & Income Fund, Inc. as of December 31, 2006, and the respective results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Lazard Global Total Return & Income Fund, Inc.
Dividend Reinvestment Plan
(unaudited)

Unless you elect to receive distributions in cash (i.e., opt-out), all dividends, including any capital gain distributions, on your Common Stock will be automatically reinvested by Computershare Shareholder Services, Inc., as dividend disbursing agent (the “Plan Agent”), in additional Common Stock under the Fund’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan (the “Plan”). You may elect not to participate in the Plan by contacting the Plan Agent. If you do not participate, you will receive all distributions in cash, paid by check mailed directly to you by the Plan Agent.

Under the Plan, the number of shares of Common Stock you will receive will be determined on the dividend or distribution payment date, as follows:

(1)	If the Common Stock is trading at or above net asset value at the time of valuation, the Fund will issue new shares at a price equal to the greater of (i) net asset value per Common Share on that date or (ii) 95% of the Common Stock’s market price on that date.

(2)	If the Common Stock is trading below net asset value at the time of valuation, the Plan Agent will receive the dividend or distribution in cash and will purchase Common Stock in the open market, on the NYSE or elsewhere, for the participants’ accounts. It is possible that the market price for the Common Stock may increase before the Plan Agent has completed its purchases. Therefore, the average purchase price per share paid by the Plan Agent may exceed the market price at the time of valuation, resulting in the purchase of fewer shares than if the dividend or distribution had been paid in Common Stock issued by the Fund. The Plan Agent will use all dividends and distributions received in cash to purchase Common Stock in the open market within 30 days of the valuation date. Interest will not be paid on any uninvested cash payments.

You may withdraw from the Plan at any time by giving written notice to the Plan Agent. If you withdraw or the Plan is terminated, you will receive whole shares in your account under the Plan and you will receive a cash payment for any fraction of a share in your account. If you wish, the Plan Agent will sell your shares and send you the proceeds, minus an initial $15 service fee plus $0.12 per share being liquidated (for processing and brokerage expenses).

The Plan Agent maintains all stockholders’ accounts in the Plan and gives written confirmation of all transactions in the accounts, including information you may need for tax records. Shares of Common Stock in your account will be held by the Plan Agent in non-certificated form. Any proxy you receive will include all Common Stock you have received under the Plan.

There is no brokerage charge for reinvestment of your dividends or distributions in newly-issued shares of Common Stock. However, all participants will pay a pro rata share of brokerage commissions incurred by the Plan Agent when it makes open market purchases.

Automatically reinvesting dividends and distributions does not mean that you do not have to pay income taxes due upon receiving dividends and distributions.

If you hold your Common Stock with a brokerage firm that does not participate in the Plan, you will not be able to participate in the Plan and any dividend reinvestment may be effected on different terms than those described above. Consult your financial advisor for more information.

The Fund reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan if, in the judgment of the Board of Directors, the change is warranted. There is no direct service charge to participants in the Plan (other than the service charge when you direct the Plan Agent to sell your Common Stock held in a dividend reinvestment account); however, the Fund reserves the right to amend the Plan to include a service charge payable by the participants. Additional information about the Plan may be obtained from the Plan Agent at P.O. Box 43010, Providence, Rhode Island 02940-3010.

Board Consideration of Management Agreement

At the meeting of the Fund’s Board of Directors held on November 8, 2006, the Board considered the approval, for an additional annual period, of the Management Agreement between the Fund and the Investment Manager. The Directors who are not interested persons (as defined in the Act) of the Fund (the “Independent Directors”) were assisted in their review by independent legal counsel and met with counsel in executive session separate from representatives of the Investment Manager.

Services Provided

Representatives of the Investment Manager gave a presentation to the Board about the nature, extent and quality of services that the Investment Manager provides the Fund, including a brief discussion of the Investment Manager and its clients (of which the Fund comprised approximately $310 million (leveraged) of the approximately $88 billion of total assets under management by the Investment Manager and its global affiliates) and outline of the Investment Manager’s global structure, including technology and operational support and significant marketing infrastructure, all of which provide realized benefits through investment in the Investment Manager’s investment advisory business. The Directors also considered information provided by the Investment Manager regarding its personnel, resources, business reputation, financial condition and experience. The Directors agreed that the Fund benefits from all of the services of the Investment Manager’s global platforms, and that such services would be different than those provided to a $6 billion fund complex such as that of the Fund and the

Lazard Global Total Return & Income Fund, Inc.

other Lazard Funds. The Directors were provided with the Fund’s market price performance and market discount to net asset value and distributions.

The Directors discussed the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Investment Manager to the Fund. The Directors considered the various services provided by the Investment Manager to the Fund and considered the Investment Manager’s research and portfolio management capabilities and that the Investment Manager also provides oversight of day-to-day operations of the Fund, including fund accounting and administration and assistance in meeting legal and regulatory requirements. The Directors also considered the Investment Manager’s extensive administrative, accounting and compliance infrastructure and agreed that the Fund benefits from all of the services of the Investment Manager’s global platforms, and that such services would be different than those provided to a fund if it were not managed by a global firm such as the Investment Manager.

Comparative Performance and Fees and Expenses

The Directors reviewed and placed significant emphasis on the relative performance and advisory fees and expense ratio for the Fund, including comparative information prepared by Lipper.

The Directors noted that the Fund’s total return performance (based on net asset value) was above the medians of its Lipper comparison group (“Group”) and Lipper category (“Category”) for the most recent one-year period, although below the medians for other periods. The Directors also reviewed a comparison of the Fund’s performance compared to its benchmark index. The Directors also discussed the advisory fees and current expense ratio for the Fund, and it was noted that they were within the ranges of those of the Group and Category. It was noted that there were no funds in the Group or Category that pursued a strategy similar to that of the Fund’s strategy of investing in global equity securities and in currency forward contracts. There were no other accounts managed by the Investment Manager in the Fund’s investment strategy. An extended discussion of the fees charged and services provided under the Management Agreement ensued.

Fee Calculation

The Board was reminded of the method of calculating the Fund’s management fee and considered that the method of calculation of management fees based on the Fund’s Total Leveraged Assets, pursuant to which the management fee borne by stockholders will increase to the extent the Investment Manager makes Currency Investments by incurring Financial Leverage rather than reducing the percentage of Net Assets invested in Global Equity Investments for the purposes of making Currency Investments, and considered the advantages of increased investment exposure through Financial Leverage. The Board considered the economic equivalence, and the similarities, from an investment management perspective, of Currency Investments (1) made with Currency Commitments and (2) made with the proceeds of Borrowings.

The Board considered, (1) that this method of calculating management fees is different than the way closed-end investment companies typically calculate management fees, (2) that traditionally closed-end funds calculate management fees based on Net Assets plus Borrowings (excluding Financial Leverage obtained through Currency Commitments), and (3) that the Investment Manager’s fee would be lower if its fee were calculated only on Net Assets plus Borrowings, because the Investment Manager would not earn fees on Currency Investments made with Currency Commitments (forward currency contracts or other derivative instruments whose value is derived from the performance of an underlying emerging market currency). The Board considered that the Investment Manager’s fee is different because the Fund’s leverage strategy is different than the leverage strategy employed by many other closed-end investment companies—that although the Fund may employ Borrowings in making Currency Investments, the Fund’s leverage strategy relies primarily on Currency Commitments rather than relying exclusively on borrowing money and/or issuing preferred stock, as for most closed-end investment companies. The Board considered the Fund’s use of Currency Commitments for leverage (rather than relying exclusively on borrowing money and/or issuing preferred stock) and the Investment Manager’s belief that forward currency contracts, or other derivative instruments whose value is derived from the performance of an underlying emerging market currency, often offer a more attractive way to gain exposure to emerging market interest rate opportunities and currencies than investments in debt obligations and the fact that there might not be a viable debt market in certain emerging market countries. The Board also considered the Investment Manager’s view that foreign currency contracts present less counterparty and custody risks and the Investment Manager’s extensive expertise with these instruments, as discussed in detail in previous meetings concerning the Management Agreement.

Procedures adopted by the Investment Manager for the Management Agreement in order to evaluate possible conflicts of interest that may arise from the fee calculation methodology, included the following: (1) no less frequently than monthly,

decisions regarding the amount of the Fund’s allocation to Currency Investments must be reviewed by a Managing Director of the Investment Manager not involved in the decision-making process and the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer, and that such review be documented to include the basis therefor, documentation to be retained for six years, the first two years in an easily accessible place, (2) the Investment Manager must provide the Board with a quarterly report regarding these decisions and the reasons therefor and (3) the Investment Manager must deliver a quarterly certification to the Board, signed by a Managing Director of the Investment Manager and the Fund’s or the Investment Manager’s Chief Compliance Officer (as applicable), that the procedures had been complied with during the previous quarter. The Investment Manager representatives stated that such procedures had been followed under the Management Agreement, and that the Investment Manager would continue to follow those procedures.

Investment Manager Profitability and Economies of Scale

The Directors reviewed information prepared by the Investment Manager for the Fund concerning the costs to and profits realized by the Investment Manager and its affiliates resulting from the Management Agreement, reviewing the projected dollar amount of expenses allocated and profit received by the Investment Manager and the method used to determine such expenses and profit. The representatives of the Investment Manager stated that neither the Investment Manager nor its affiliates, including Lazard, receive any significant indirect benefits from managing the Fund. The Investment Manager’s representatives stated that Lazard is not currently used for brokerage purposes. The Investment Manager’s representatives noted that the Investment Manager does obtain soft dollar research, as reviewed by the Board each quarter. The Directors agreed that the information provided substantiated statements of the Investment Manager representatives.

It was noted that the profitability percentage for the Fund was within ranges determined by appropriate court cases not to be so disproportionately large that it bore no reasonable relationship to the services rendered and, given the overall service levels, was thought not to be excessive, and the Board concurred with this analysis.

The Directors considered the Investment Manager’s projected profitability with respect to the Fund as part of their evaluation of whether the Fund’s fee under the Management Agreement bears a reasonable relationship to the mix of services provided by the Investment Manager, including the nature, extent and quality of such services. The Directors evaluated the costs of the services to be provided and profits expected to be realized by the Investment Manager and its affiliates from the relationship with the Fund in light of the relevant circumstances. It was noted that a discussion of economies of scale should be predicated on increasing assets and that because the Fund is a closed-end fund without daily inflows and outflows of capital there were not at this time significant economies of scale to be realized by the Investment Manager in managing the Fund’s assets. The Directors also considered potential benefits to the Investment Manager and its affiliates from the Investment Manager acting as investment adviser to the Fund.

At the conclusion of these discussions, each of the Independent Directors expressed the opinion that he had been furnished with sufficient information to make an informed business decision with respect to renewal of the Management Agreement. Based on its discussions and considerations as described above, the Board made the following conclusions and determinations.

The Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Investment Manager are ade- quate and appropriate, especially including the benefits of advisory and research services associated with a $88 billion asset management business.

The Board was satisfied with the Fund’s overall performance.

The Board concluded that the Fund’s fee paid to the Investment Manager was reasonable in light of comparative perform- ance and expense and advisory fee information, costs of the services provided and profits to be realized and benefits derived or to be derived by the Investment Manager from the relationship with the Fund.

The Board determined that there were not at this time significant economies of scale to be realized by the Investment Manager managing the Fund’s assets and that, to the extent that material economies of scale had not been shared with the Fund, the Board would seek to do so.

The Board considered these conclusions and determinations and, without any one factor being dispositive, determined that approval of the Management Agreement was in the best interests of the Fund and its stockholders.

ITEM 7. DISCLOSURE OF PROXY VOTING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES FOR CLOSED END MANAGEMENT INVESTMENTCOMPANIES.

The Fund has delegated voting of proxies in respect of portfolio holdings to Lazard, to vote the Fund’s proxies in accordance with Lazard's proxy voting policy and guidelines (the "Voting Guidelines") that provide as follows:

Lazard votes proxies in the best interests of its clients.
Unless Lazard's Proxy Committee otherwise determines, Lazard votes proxies in a manner consistent with the Voting Guidelines.

To avoid conflicts of interest, Lazard votes proxies where a material conflict has been deemed to exist in accordance with specific proxy voting guidelines regarding various standard proxy proposals ("Approved Guidelines") or, if the Approved Guideline is to vote case-by-case, in accordance with the recommendation of an independent source.
Lazard also may determine not to vote proxies in respect of securities of any issuer if it determines that it would be in the client's overall best interests not to vote.

The Voting Guidelines address how it will vote proxies on particular types of matters such as the election for directors, adoption of option plans and anti-takeover proposals. For example, Lazard generally will:

vote as recommended by management in routine election or re-election of directors;
favor programs intended to reward management and employees for positive, long-term performance, evaluating whether the Lazard believes, under the circumstances, that the level of compensation is appropriate or excessive; and
vote against anti-takeover measures, such as adopting supermajority voting requirements, shareholder rights plans and fair price provisions.

ITEM 8. PORTFOLIO MANAGERS OF CLOSED-END MANAGEMENT INVESTMENT COMPANIES.

Principal Portfolio Managers

As of the date of the filing of this Report on Form N-CSR, the following persons are responsible for the management of the Fund's portfolio:

James Donald is responsible for allocation of the Fund's assets between Global Equity Investments and Currency Investments (each, as defined in the notes to the Fund's annual report to shareholders contained in Item 1) and overall management of the Fund's portfolio. Global Equity Investments and Currency Investments are each managed on a team basis, with each member of the team involved at all levels of the investment process.

Mr. Donald, a Managing Director of Lazard, is a portfolio manager/analyst and serves as head of the emerging markets group. Before joining Lazard in 1996, Mr. Donald worked at Mercury Asset Management ("Mercury"), which he joined in 1985. At Mercury, he was on the emerging markets team between 1992 and 1996 and worked on the international equity team between 1985 and 1992. At Mercury, between 1990 and 1996, Mr. Donald served as Vice President and Treasurer for The United Kingdom Fund and The Europe Fund. Mr. Donald is a Chartered Financial Analyst ("CFA") Charterholder and received an HBA from the University of Western Ontario.

Global Equity Investments. Gabrielle Boyle, Andrew Lacey and Michael Powers are the portfolio managers responsible for investing the Fund's assets allocated to Global Equity Investments.

Ms. Boyle, a Senior Managing Director of Lazard, is a portfolio manager on the international equity team and a member of the London-based European equity team. She joined Lazard in 1993 and has been working in the investment field since 1991. Previously, Ms. Boyle worked with Royal Insurance Asset Management. She earned a BA (Hons) degree in Economics & History in 1989 and a MA in Economics in 1990, both from University College, Dublin. She is a member of the Institute of Investment Management and Research.

Mr. Lacey, a Deputy Chairman of Lazard, is a portfolio manager focusing on U.S. equity products, and also is a member of the global equity select, global ex-Australia, and global trend funds teams. He has been working in the investment field since 1995. Prior to becoming a full-

time member of Lazard's equity team in 1996, Mr. Lacey worked part-time at Lazard during 1995 and 1996 while attaining his MBA from Columbia University. He also has a BA from Wesleyan University.

Mr. Powers, a Managing Director of Lazard, is a member of the international equity, international equity select, and European Equity select teams. He began working in the investment field in 1990. Before joining Lazard in 1990, he was a vice president for Chemco Technologies. He received an MBA from Long Island University and a BA from Brown University.

Currency Investments. Ardra Belitz and Ganesh Ramachandran are jointly responsible for investment of the Fund's assets allocated to Currency Investments.

Ms. Belitz is a Director of Lazard and a portfolio manager/analyst specializing in emerging market currency and debt. She has been working in the investment field since 1994. Before joining Lazard in 1996, she was a senior portfolio administrator with Bankers Trust Company. Ms. Belitz graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Brandeis University with a BA in Economics.

Mr. Ramachandran is a Director of Lazard and a portfolio manager/analyst specializing in emerging market currency and debt. He has an MBA from the University of Rochester, Simon School of Business and a BS in Chemical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology at Madras. He joined Lazard in 1997.

Portfolio Management

Team Management. Portfolio managers at Lazard manage multiple accounts for a diverse client base, including private clients, institutions and investment funds. Lazard manages all portfolios on a team basis. The team is involved at all levels of the investment process. This team approach allows for every portfolio manager to benefit from his/her peers, and for clients to receive the firm's best thinking, not that of a single portfolio manager. Lazard manages all like investment mandates against a model portfolio. Specific client objectives, guidelines or limitations then are applied against the model, and any necessary adjustments are made.

Material Conflicts Related to Management of Similar Accounts. Although the potential for conflicts of interest exist when an investment adviser and portfolio managers manage other accounts that invest in securities in which the Fund may invest or that may pursue a strategy similar to one of the Fund's component strategies (collectively, "Similar Accounts"), Lazard has procedures in place that are designed to ensure that all accounts are treated fairly and that the Fund is not disadvantaged, including procedures regarding trade allocations and "conflicting trades" (e.g., long and short positions in the same security, as described below). In addition, the Fund, as a registered investment company, is subject to different regulations than certain of the Similar Accounts, and, consequently, may not be permitted to engage in all the investment techniques or transactions, or to engage in such techniques or transactions to the same degree, as the Similar Accounts.

Potential conflicts of interest may arise because of Lazard's management of the Fund and Similar Accounts. For example, conflicts of interest may arise with both the aggregation and allocation of securities transactions and allocation of limited investment opportunities, as Lazard may be perceived as causing accounts it manages to participate in an offering to increase Lazard's overall allocation of securities in that offering, or to increase Lazard's ability to participate in future offerings by the same underwriter or issuer. Allocations of bunched trades, particularly trade orders that were only partially filled due to limited availability, and allocation of investment opportunities generally, could raise a potential conflict of interest, as Lazard may have an incentive to allocate securities that are expected to increase in value to preferred accounts. Initial public offerings, in particular, are frequently of very limited availability. Additionally, portfolio managers may be perceived to have a conflict of interest because of the large number of Similar Accounts, in addition to the Fund, that they are managing on behalf of Lazard. Although Lazard does not track each individual portfolio manager's time dedicated to each account, Lazard periodically reviews each portfolio manager's overall responsibilities to ensure that they are able to allocate the necessary time and resources to effectively manage the Fund. In addition, Lazard

could be viewed as having a conflict of interest to the extent that Lazard and/or portfolio managers have a materially larger investment in a Similar Account than their investment in the Fund.

A potential conflict of interest may be perceived to arise if transactions in one account closely follow related transactions in a different account, such as when a purchase increases the value of securities previously purchase by the other account, or when a sale in one account lowers the sale price received in a sale by a second account. Lazard and certain of the Fund's portfolio managers manage hedge funds that are subject to performance/incentive fees. Certain hedge funds managed by Lazard may also be permitted to sell securities short. When Lazard engages in short sales of securities of the type in which the Fund invests, Lazard could be seen as harming the performance of the Fund for the benefit of the account engaging in short sales if the short sales cause the market value of the securities to fall. As described above, Lazard has procedures in place to address these conflicts. Additionally, Lazard currently does not have any portfolio managers that manage both hedge funds that engage in short sales and long-only accounts, including open-end and closed-end registered investment companies.

Other Accounts Managed by the Portfolio Managers. The chart below includes information regarding the members of the portfolio management team responsible for managing the Fund. Specifically, it shows the number of other portfolios and assets managed by management teams of which each of the Fund's portfolio managers is a member. Regardless of the number of accounts, the portfolio management team still manages each account based on a model portfolio as described above.

Compensation for Portfolio Managers

Lazard's portfolio managers are generally responsible for managing multiple types of accounts that may, or may not, invest in securities in which the Fund may invest or pursue a strategy similar to one of the Fund's component strategies. Portfolio managers responsible for managing the Fund may also manage sub-advised registered investment companies, collective investment trusts, unregistered funds and/or other pooled investment vehicles, separate accounts, separately managed account programs (often referred to as "wrap accounts") and model portfolios.

During the fiscal year covered by this Report on Form N-CSR, Lazard compensates portfolio managers by a competitive salary and bonus structure, which is determined both quantitatively and qualitatively. Salary and bonus are paid in cash. Portfolio managers are compensated on the performance of the aggregate group of portfolios managed by the teams of which they are a member rather than for a specific fund or account. Various factors are considered in the

determination of a portfolio manager's compensation. All of the portfolios managed by a portfolio manager are comprehensively evaluated to determine his or her positive and consistent performance contribution over time. Further factors include the amount of assets in the portfolios as well as qualitative aspects that reinforce Lazard's investment philosophy.

Total compensation is generally not fixed, but rather is based on the following factors: (i) leadership, teamwork and commitment, (ii) maintenance of current knowledge and opinions on companies owned in the portfolio; (iii) generation and development of new investment ideas, including the quality of security analysis and identification of appreciation catalysts; (iv) ability and willingness to develop and share ideas on a team basis; and (v) the performance results of the portfolios managed by the investment teams of which the portfolio manager is a member.

Variable bonus is based on the portfolio manager's quantitative performance as measured by his or her ability to make investment decisions that contribute to the pre-tax absolute and relative returns of the accounts managed by the teams of which the portfolio manager is a member, by comparison of each account to a predetermined benchmark (as set forth in the prospectus or other governing document) over the current fiscal year and the longer-term performance (3-, 5- or 10-year, if applicable) of such account, as well as performance of the account relative to peers. The variable bonus for the Fund's portfolio management team in respect of its management of the Fund is determined by reference to the Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI^®) World Index. The portfolio manager's bonus also can be influenced by subjective measurement of the manager's ability to help others make investment decisions. Portfolio managers managing accounts that pay performance fees may receive a portion of the performance fee as part of their compensation.

Portfolio managers also have an interest in the Lazard Asset Management LLC Equity Plan, an equity based incentive program for Lazard. The plan offers permanent equity in Lazard to a significant number of its professionals, including portfolio managers, as determined by the Board of Managers of Lazard, from time to time. This plan gives certain employees of Lazard a permanent equity interest in Lazard and an opportunity to participate in the future growth of Lazard.
