First Trust Portfolios Increases Stake in AllianceBernstein Global High Income Fund to 10.21%
On June 5, 2026, First Trust Portfolios L.P., First Trust Advisors L.P., and The Charger Corporation jointly filed a Schedule 13G/A, disclosing a 10.21% ownership stake in AllianceBernstein Global High Income Fund, Inc. (AWF). The reporting entities collectively hold 8,803,414 shares, representing a significant increase from previously reported holdings. The Charger Corporation serves as the General Partner for both First Trust Portfolios L.P. and First Trust Advisors L.P. The shares are held across various unit investment trusts, registered investment companies, and managed accounts. Notably, the filers have shared dispositive power over the total share count but report zero voting power, as voting rights are typically exercised by the trustees of the underlying unit investment trusts. The filing confirms that these securities were acquired in the ordinary course of business and not for the purpose of changing or influencing the control of the issuer. This amendment reflects the group's continued and expanded investment position in the fund.
