The Henderson Money Market Fund is a feeder fund that invests substantially all of its assets in the State Street Money Market Portfolio. The financial statements of the State Street Money Market Portfolio, including its investment portfolio, are included on page 47 of this report and should be read in conjunction with the Henderson Money Market Fund’s financial statements.
The Henderson Strategic Income Fund may invest in high yield, lower rated (junk) bonds which involve a greater degree of risk than investment grade bonds. As such, securities rated below investment grade generally entail greater credit, market, issuer and liquidity risk than investment grade securities. Moreover, the Fund is subject to interest rate risk which is the risk that debt securities in the Fund’s portfolio will decline in value because of increases in market interest rates. The Fund may borrow money which may adversely affect the return to shareholders of the Fund, also known as leverage risk.
International investing involves certain risks and increased volatility not associated with investing solely in the US. These risks include currency fluctuations, economic or financial instability, lack of timely or reliable financial information or unfavorable political or legal developments. The International All Cap Equity Fund and the Strategic Income Fund may invest in securities issued by smaller companies, which typically involves greater risk than investing in larger companies. Also, these Funds may invest in limited geographic areas and/or sectors which may result in greater market volatility. In addition, these Funds may invest in derivatives. Derivatives involve special risks different from, and potentially greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and may result in greater losses.
The views in this report were those of the Funds’ managers as of June 30, 2012 and may not reflect the views of the managers on the date this report is first published or anytime thereafter. These views are intended to assist shareholders of the Funds in understanding their investment in the Funds and do not constitute investment advice.
Henderson Global Funds | Letter to shareholders |
Dear shareholder,
We are pleased to provide the semi-annual report for the Henderson International All Cap Equity, Money Market and Strategic Income Funds, which covers the six months ended June 30, 2012.
Global markets finished the first half of the year in positive territory as measured by the MSCI World Index, but the outlook for the global economy remains uncertain as risks persist.
Within Europe, Spain’s banking sector worries, the elections in Greece and the Eurozone summit kept markets on edge. The €100bn Spanish bank bailout and election victory by pro-austerity parties eased fears of a Greek Eurozone exit and restored some of the confidence eroded in the last couple of months. June ended with an unexpectedly successful European Summit as leaders agreed to stabilize the region’s debt markets and recapitalize its banks, easing the funding strains on Spain and Italy. A key outcome from the summit was a new roadmap for European banking supervision via the European Central Bank, which is the first step towards a full banking union.
As the Eurozone crisis continues and economic data continues to point to a softening outlook, the pressure for further quantitative easing (QE) appears to be building. June revealed that Eurozone manufacturing output fell at the fastest pace in the last three years and US job growth slowed along with poor retail sales. The weaker economic data failed to prompt the US Federal Reserve into a third round of QE; instead Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke and the Federal Open Markets Committee agreed to extend Operation Twist (a strategy to reduce long-term interest rates) to boost confidence amid falling consumer demand and a drop in output growth in recent months.
Emerging markets lagged other regions as fears of a hard landing resurfaced. Continuing softness in Chinese economic data drove commodities into bear market territory as crude oil sank below the $90 a barrel level for the first time in 18 months. The Chinese central bank subsequently cut its benchmark interest rate by 0.25% in June in a bid to boost growth in the near term.
Looking forward, the expectation of further stimulus by global central banks is likely to provide short-term support for markets, which are currently pricing in exceptionally low interest rates for an extended period of time across developed regions. However, recent economic data continues to point towards a slowdown in global growth, which may provide a headwind later this year.
At Henderson we remain focused on seeking attractive global investment opportunities which may be created by these uncertain markets. It is our goal to continue to create differentiated portfolios for our shareholders, and we appreciate your trust in and support of our Funds.

Henderson Global Funds | Commentary |
International All Cap Equity Fund
2012 began with one of the strongest starts since 1998 as risk assets found favor after a volatile end to 2011. Emerging markets generally outperformed developed markets, despite China being a laggard, and international small-cap companies outperformed large-cap. However, the second quarter witnessed a reversal in global equity markets. The Eurozone was at the epicenter of investors’ concerns as further political change, spiralling bank and government debt, and weak European data all conspired to undermine investor confidence in the region. This dovetailed with softening macroeconomic releases from the US and China, although markets did pick up in the last day of June as European leaders laid out proposals for a banking union.
For the reporting period ended June 30, 2012, the Fund returned 3.29% (Class A at NAV) versus the benchmark, MSCI EAFE Index, which posted a return of 3.38%. Stock selection in Europe, including the UK, added the most value as consumer discretionary and cyclical exposure benefited from the increase in investor risk appetite. Within the consumer discretionary sector positions in Hong Kong, luxury retailer Prada was the most positive with Belgian brewer InBev close behind following robust earnings and the purchase of Modelo, a Mexican brewer. Within the industrial sector, Keppel Corporation and Spectris benefited from rising demand for oil rigs and improving efficiency trends respectively. While the Fund remains underweight in financials versus the benchmark, the position in Credit Suisse was the worst performer as equity markets sold off and investment banking activity declined from the first quarter. Additionally, holdings in the more defensive Shire Pharmaceutical detracted from returns, as did Brazil Foods and mining giant Xstrata.
During the period we added shares selectively to reduce the Fund’s underweight in financials by adding French insurer Axa and Japanese insurer Tokio Marine, both of which we believe have attractive growth profiles, solid balance sheets and undemanding multiples. We also added consumer technology exposure through new positions in Hon Hai, which manufactures Apple’s products and Samsung Electronics, funded through sales of Ericsson and Softbank. We also added to our position in Infineon due to rising demand for energy conservation and power efficiency, and sold the positions in International Power and DBS Group – the former following an increased offer from GDF Suez for the company, and the latter after it announced the acquisition of Bank Danamon in Indonesia.
Investors have reacted positively to the prospect of a banking union in the Eurozone however political negotiations are still at an early stage. That said, we believe valuations are attractive in Europe and forward-looking investors may begin to put cash to work, even though we are likely to see further weakness in global growth in the near-term. The drop in inflation levels, however, is a positive sign: in Asia, it allows authorities to loosen monetary policy; in Western economies it allows central banks scope to consider further stimulus should economic growth stagnate or weaken further. In this environment, we continue to believe that a focus on company fundamentals should deliver long-term positive shareholder returns.
1 A note about the Fund's holding in Standard Chartered as of August 22: On August 6, 2012, Standard Chartered was accused by the New York State Department of Financial Services (DFS) of hiding approximately $250 billion of deals with Iran over the last seven years using “flagrantly deceptive actions” and threatened with the loss of its New York State Banking License as a result. The bank publicly and very vigorously disputed these charges, stating that it had been reviewing documentation on a voluntary basis with the DFS since January 2010 and that it had ceased all new business with Iranian customers five years ago.
After a period of strong performance prior to this event and in light of the clearly heightened risks, we prudently reduced the position in the portfolio but continue to hold the stock. On current fundamental terms we see value in the stock due to the fact that the bank has a unique set of assets across Asia and other Emerging Markets which position it well to continue to capture the benefits of economic expansion across the geographies in which it operates.

* Average Annual return.
**Class A and C shares commenced operations on December 31, 2010. For periods prior to December 31, 2010, rates of return for Class A and C shares are based on Class I NAVs adjusted for the higher expenses associated with Class A and C shares. Performance for Class A and C shares would be similar because the shares are invested in the same portfolio of securities and have the same portfolio management. Class I shares are not subject to a front-end sales charge or a distribution fee.
Performance data quoted represents past performance and is no guarantee of future results. Due to the Fund’s relatively small asset base, performance was impacted by IPOs to a greater degree than it may be in the future. IPO investments are not an integral component of the Fund’s investment process and may not be utilized to the same extent in the future. Performance results with sales charges reflect the deduction of the maximum front-end sales charge or the deduction of the applicable contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”). Class A shares are subject to a maximum front-end sales charge of 5.75%. Class C shares are subject to a CDSC of up to 1% on certain redemptions made within 12 months of purchase. Performance presented at Net Asset Value (NAV), which does not include a sales charge, would be lower if this charge were reflected. NAV is the value of one share of the Fund excluding any sales charges. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than original cost. As stated in the current prospectus, the Fund’s annual operating expense ratios (gross) for Class A, C and I shares are 1.96%, 4.03% and 1.19% respectively. In addition, the Fund’s adviser has agreed to contractually waive a portion of its fees and/or reimburse expenses such that total ordinary operating expenses (other than Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses allocated from unaffiliated investment companies) do not exceed 1.40%, 2.15% and 1.15% for Class A, C and I Shares, respectively, which is in effect until July 31, 2020. For the most recent month-end performance, please call 1.866.443.6337 or visit the Fund’s website at www.hendersonglobalinvestors.com.
Performance results also reflect expense subsidies and waivers in effect during certain periods shown. Absent these waivers, results would have been less favorable for certain periods. All results assume the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains.
The investment comparison graph above reflects the change in value of a $10,000 hypothetical investment since the Fund’s inception, including reinvested dividends and distributions, compared to a broad based securities market index. The MSCI EAFE Index is a capitalization-weighted index that monitors the performance of stocks from Europe, Australasia and The Far East. The Fund is professionally managed while the Index is unmanaged and not available for investment. Results in the table and graph do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

Henderson Global Funds | Commentary |
Strategic Income Fund
The exceptionally strong performance of credit markets in the first quarter of 2012 was a dramatic turnaround from the second half of 2011. The primary catalyst for this market rebound appeared to be the announcement from the European Central Bank (ECB) in December 2011 that it would offer unlimited amounts of three-year loans for the European banking system. In addition to removing the threat of bank failures, it appeared to kick-off a virtuous circle of domestic banks buying their own country's government bonds enabling a heavy quarter of peripheral sovereign bond issuance to be absorbed with minimal stress. Corporate news-flow in the US continued positively as the economy showed some signs of growing momentum especially regarding employment growth. This positive US growth outlook and European crisis containment continued through most of the first quarter but by late March cracks in both stories were beginning to appear. Weak economic data from both continents combined with the Spanish government's reduced commitment to fiscal retrenchment highlighted that the liquidity boost provided by the ECB was no fundamental solution to the European crisis and much work on solvency remained. In contrast, core government bond markets proved relatively dull during the period.
The second quarter was marked by volatility, with global economic data deteriorating in many countries. In response to heightened anxiety over Greece exiting the Eurozone, periphery European sovereign bond trading levels and deposit flight, the European Union Summit towards the end of June managed to beat the already lowered expectations. Some constructive action was proposed especially regarding financial assistance by the EU bodies to directly recapitalize Spanish banks (without subordinating the existing sovereign lenders or the burden falling on Spanish taxpayers). A compact for Jobs and Growth, an EU financial supervision body and a “roadmap” to achieve Economic and Monetary Union were proposed.
For the reporting period ended June 30, 2012, the Fund returned 6.19% (Class A at NAV) versus the benchmark 50% Merrill Lynch Global High Yield (USD hedged)/50% Merrill Lynch Global Broad Market Corporate (USD hedged) which posted a return of 7.03%. The Fund’s allocation to high yield securities provided positive returns as equities, high yield and subordinated financial bonds significantly outperformed investment grade bonds which, in turn, materially outperformed sovereign bonds.
Investment activity has been relatively light. The Fund added some long dated 2042 UK Gilts to raise the interest rate sensitivity of the Fund; the UK curve remains relatively steep and with falling inflation expectations and more quantitative easing (QE) expected both sides of the Atlantic we feel this offers good value. Also, we continue to expand the use of derivatives - interest rate futures were successfully used to increase duration (interest rate sensitivity).
While markets rallied at the very end of the reporting period on the positive intentions from policymakers during the EU Summit, we still have three major concerns; the inevitable need to write down junior Spanish bank bondholders, the sustainability of Italian debt levels, and the lack of European, and more recently, global growth. Given the fading global growth outlook we continue to be very selective on credits we introduce and maintain in the portfolio. We currently favor large, non-cyclical industrial credits in the double and triple B category.

Henderson Global Funds | Notes to financial statements (unaudited) |
Note 1. Organization
Henderson Global Funds (the “Trust”) was organized on May 11, 2001, as a Delaware statutory trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the“1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust has an unlimited number of authorized shares that are divided among eleven series. The Henderson All Asset Fund, Henderson Emerging Markets Opportunities Fund, Henderson European Focus Fund, Henderson Global Equity Income Fund, Henderson Global Leaders Fund, Henderson Global Technology Fund, Henderson International Opportunities Fund and Henderson Japan Focus Fund are not included in this report because their fiscal year end is July 31. The Henderson International All Cap Equity Fund (“International All Cap Equity”), Henderson Money Market Fund (“Money Market”) and Henderson Strategic Income Fund (“Strategic Income”) (collectively, the “Funds”), are included in this report and are each a separate series of the Trust and are diversified.
Money Market is a feeder fund that invests substantially all of its assets in the State Street Money Market Portfolio, (the “Master Portfolio”), a series of State Street Master Funds. The investment objective and policies of Master Portfolio are substantially similar to those of Money Market. The value of Money Market’s investment in Master Portfolio reflects its proportionate interest in the net assets of Master Portfolio (0.25% at June 30, 2012). The performance of Money Market is directly affected by the performance of Master Portfolio. The financial statements of Master Portfolio are included elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with Money Market’s financial statements. The investment objective of Money Market is to seek to maximize current income while providing liquidity, preservation of capital, and a stable $1.00 per share price.
The Funds offer the following share classes:
International All Cap Equity | Class A Class C Class I |
Money Market | Class A Class B Class C Class Z |
Strategic Income | Class A Class B Class C Class I |
Class A shares generally provide for a front-end sales charge for International All Cap Equity and Strategic Income. Class B and Class C shares provide for a contingent deferred sales charge. Class I shares are not subject to a front-end or contingent deferred sales charge.
Each class of shares has equal rights as to earnings and assets except that each class may bear different distribution and shareholder service expenses. Each class of shares has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters that affect just that class. Income, expenses (other than expenses attributable to a specific class), realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets. Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares at the end of the month following the eighth anniversary of issuance. The Funds do not accept new or additional investments in Class B shares with the limited exception that current Class B shareholders may continue to have their dividends automatically reinvested in Class B shares of their Fund. As described in the prospectus, Class B shares of the Fund may continue to be exchanged with Class B shares of other Henderson Global Funds. In addition, direct purchases of Class C shares of Money Market are not permitted. Class Z shares are only available for purchase by other series of the Trust.
Note 2. Significant accounting policies
Security valuation
Money Market records its investments in Master Portfolio at its reported Net Asset Value (NAV), which approximates fair market value. The valuation polices of Master Portfolio are discussed in Note 2 of Master Portfolio’s Notes to Financial Statements, which are included elsewhere within this report.
Securities and derivatives traded on a recognized exchange or market are generally valued at the last reported sale price or at the official closing price. Listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date and other securities traded in the over-the-counter market are valued at the mean between the last bid and asked price.
Debt securities are valued at the market value provided by independent pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees of the Trust. If the pricing services are unable to provide valuations, the securities are valued at the mean between the last bid and asked price, or if no ask is available, then the last bid price obtained from one or more broker dealers. Such pricing services may use various pricing techniques that take into account appropriate factors such as yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other data, as well as broker quotes.
28
Henderson Global Funds | Notes to financial statements (unaudited) |
Short-term investments purchased with an original or remaining maturity of 60 days or less at time of purchase are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair market value. Investments in registered investment companies are valued at its reported net asset value, which approximates fair market value.
Forward foreign currency contracts are valued daily at the applicable quoted forward rate.
Swap agreements are valued using independent values when available, otherwise, fair values are estimated on the basis of pricing models that incorporate current market measures for interest rates, currency exchange rates, equity prices and indices, credit spreads, corresponding market volatility levels and other market-based pricing factors.
If market quotations are not readily available, or if the investment adviser determines that a quotation of a security does not represent a fair value, then the security is valued at a fair value as determined in good faith using procedures approved by the Board of Trustees of the Trust. The Trustees of the Trust, or their designee, may also establish fair value using a wide variety of market data including yields or prices of investments of comparable quality, type of issue, coupon, maturity and rating, market quotes or indications of value from security dealers, evaluations of anticipated cash flows or collateral, general market conditions and other information and analysis, including the obligor’s credit characteristics considered relevant.
For equity securities, the Trust has retained an independent statistical fair value pricing service to assist in the fair valuation process for securities principally traded in a foreign market in order to adjust for possible changes in value that may occur between the close of the foreign exchange and the time at which Fund shares are priced. If a security is valued at a “fair value”, that value may be different from the last quoted market price for the security. As a result, it is possible that fair value prices will be used by the Funds.
Security transactions and investment income
Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Bond premium is amortized and discount is accreted over the expected life of each applicable security. Corporate actions involving foreign securities, including dividends, are recorded as soon as the information becomes available. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends are accrued in accordance with the applicable country’s tax rules and rates. Securities gains and losses are determined on the specified identified cost basis, which is the same basis used for federal income tax purposes.
In addition to the types of income noted above, Money Market also records its pro-rata share in the net investment income and gains or losses of Master Portfolio. Net investment income for Money Market consists of Money Market’s pro-rata share of the net investment income of Master Portfolio less all expenses of Money Market. Realized gains and losses from security transactions consist of the Money Market’s pro-rata share of the realized gains and losses of Master Portfolio.
Foreign currency translation
Investments in securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into US dollar amounts at the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into US dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions.
The Funds do not separate the portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments on the Statements of Operations.
Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade date and settlement date on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds’ books and the US dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
Forward foreign currency contracts
The Funds may enter into forward foreign currency contracts primarily to hedge against foreign currency exchange rate risks on their non-US dollar denominated investment securities. When entering into forward foreign currency contracts, the Fund agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of foreign currency for an agreed-upon price on an agreed future date. Realized gains or losses on forward foreign currency contracts include net gains or losses on contracts that have matured. Forward foreign currency contracts are valued daily and the unrealized appreciation or depreciation is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. These instruments involve market risk, credit risk or both kinds of risks, in excess of the amount recognized in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. These risks arise from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unfavorable currency fluctuations.

During the six months ended June 30, 2012, average monthly notional value related to forward foreign currency contracts was $7.0 million or 14.2% of net assets.
Futures contracts
The Funds are subject to interest rate risk and foreign currency risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The Funds may invest in futures contracts to gain exposure to, or hedge against changes in the value of interest rates or foreign currencies and to gain exposure to equity indices. A futures contract represents a commitment for the future purchase or sale of an asset at a specified price and date. Upon entering into such contracts, the Funds are required to deposit with the broker either in cash or securities an initial margin in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount. Subsequent payments, known as "variation margin," are made or received by the Funds, depending on the fluctuations in the fair value of the underlying security. The Funds realize a gain or loss upon the expiration or closing of the futures contracts. Should market conditions move unexpectedly, the Funds may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the futures contracts and may realize a loss. The use of futures contracts involves the risk of imperfect correlation in movements in the price of futures contracts, interest rates, and the underlying hedged assets. With futures, there is minimal counterparty credit risk to the Funds since futures are exchange-traded and the exchange’s clearing house, as counterparty to all exchange-traded futures, guarantees the contracts against default.

During the six months ended June 30, 2012, Strategic Income’s average notional value related to futures contracts was $3.6 million or 7.6% of net assets.
Options purchased
The Funds may purchase options to create investment exposure consistent with its investment objective or to hedge or limit exposure of its portfolio holdings. Options are valued daily and unrealized appreciation or depreciation is recorded. The Funds realize a gain or loss upon the expiration or closing of the option transaction. Options are subject to substantial risks. The primary risks include the risk of imperfect correlation between the option price and the value of the underlying instrument, the possibility of an illiquid market for the option or the inability of counterparties to perform. When applicable, option contracts purchased by the Funds and contracts outstanding at the end of the period are listed in the Funds’ Schedule of Investments.
Swap contracts
The Funds may enter into swap contracts. Swap contracts involve two parties that agree to exchange the returns (or the differential in rates of return) earned or realized on particular predetermined investments, instruments, indices or other measures. The gross returns to be exchanged or “swapped” between parties are generally calculated with respect to a “notional amount” for a predetermined period of time. The Funds enter into interest rate, total return, credit default, currency and other swap agreements. Risks may arise upon entering into swap agreements from the potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of their contract from unanticipated changes in the value of the swap agreement.
30
Henderson Global Funds | Notes to financial statements (unaudited) |
The Funds use credit default swaps to manage exposure to a given issuer or sector by either selling protection to increase exposure, or buying protection to reduce exposure. The “buyer” in a credit default swap is obligated to pay the “seller” a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract provided that no event of default on an underlying reference obligation has occurred. If an event of default occurs, the seller must pay the buyer the full notional value, or the “par value”, of the reference obligation in exchange for the reference obligation. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements to provide assets of value and recourse in the event of default or bankruptcy/insolvency. Recovery values are assumed by market makers considering either industry standard recovery rates or entity specific factors and considerations until a credit event occurs. If a credit event has occurred, the recovery value is typically determined by a facilitated auction whereby a minimum number of allowable broker bids, together with a specific valuation method, are used to calculate the settlement value. The Fund’s maximum risk of loss from counterparty credit risk, either as the protection buyer or as the protection seller, is the fair value of the contract. This risk is mitigated by having a master netting arrangement between the Fund and the counterparty and by the posting of collateral by the counterparty to the Fund to cover the Fund’s exposure to the counterparty.
Upfront payments received or paid by the Funds will be reflected as an asset or liability on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Changes in the value of swap contracts are included in unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, and periodic payments are reported as Net realized gain (loss) on swap contracts in the Statements of Operations.

Indemnifications
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its Officers and Trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, in the normal course of business the Trust enters into contracts that provide general indemnifications to other parties. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as future claims may be made against the Trust that have not yet been asserted.

Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Expenses
Expenses are recorded on an accrual basis. Expenses of the Trust that are directly attributable to a specific Fund are charged to that Fund. Expenses attributable to a specific class of shares are charged to that class. Other expenses are allocated proportionately among each Fund within the Trust based on average daily net assets or on another reasonable basis. Money Market indirectly bears a pro-rata share of the fees and expenses of Master portfolio in which the Fund invests.
Federal income taxes
The Trust’s policy is that each Fund seeks to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended “Subchapter M”, that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all its taxable income to shareholders. No federal income tax provision is required so long as each Fund operates in a manner that complies with the requirements of Subchapter M. Management has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the financial statements. Management of the Funds is also not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. The Funds intend to file tax returns with the US Internal Revenue Service and various states. Generally, the tax authorities can examine all tax returns filed for the last three years.
On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) was enacted, which changed various technical rules governing the tax treatment of regulated investment companies. The changes are generally effective for taxable years beginning after the date of enactment. One of the more prominent changes addresses capital loss carryforwards. Under the Act, each Fund will be permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after the date of enactment for an unlimited period. However, any losses incurred during those future taxable years will be required to be utilized prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactment taxable years, which carry an expiration date. As a result of this ordering rule, pre-enactment capital loss carryforwards may be more likely to expire unused. Additionally, post-enactment capital loss carryforwards will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term as permitted under previous regulation.
Finally, the Act contains several provisions aimed at preserving the character of distributions made by a fiscal year RIC during the portion of its taxable year ending after October 31 or December 31, reducing the circumstances under which a RIC might be required to file amended Forms 1099 to restate previously reported distributions. Except for the simplification provisions related to RIC qualification, the Act is effective for taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010. The provisions related to RIC qualification are effective for taxable years for which the extended due date of the tax return is after December 22, 2010.
Losses incurred that will be carried forward under the provisions of the Act are as follows:
International All | ||
Cap Equity | ||
Loss carryforward character | ||
Expiration | Short-term | Long-term |
Unlimited losses | $8,162,067 | $ — |

Distributions to shareholders
Money Market distributions of net investment income are declared daily and distributed monthly. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually after the fiscal year in which the capital gains were earned or more frequently to seek to maintain a net asset value of $1.00 per share, unless offset by any available capital loss carryforward. Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.
33
Henderson Global Funds | Notes to financial statements (unaudited) |
Strategic Income and International All Cap Equity distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These book/tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent, they are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal tax-basis treatment.
The tax character of distributions paid during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and the year ended December 31, 2011 were as follows:
Six months | |||
ended | Ordinary | ||
June 30, 2012 | income | ||
Money Market | $21,406 | ||
Strategic Income | 986,995 | ||

Money Market | 33,692 | — | — |
Strategic Income | 2,092,657 | 407,341 | — |
As of December 31, 2011, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:
Undistributed | Unrealized | |
ordinary | appreciation | |
income | (depreciation) | |
International All | ||
Cap Equity | $113,639 | $(1,359,885) |
Money Market | 31,545 | – |
Strategic Income | – | (3,809,978) |
Ordinary income and net realized gains/losses may differ for book and tax basis reporting purposes due to tax deferral on wash sales and transactions in passive foreign investment companies.
Note 3. Fair value measurements
Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Funds’ investments. The Funds use a three-tier hierarchy of inputs to establish classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. These inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity.
Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available under the circumstances. The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the following three broad levels:
· | Level 1 – quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical investments |
· | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
· | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including management’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
Any transfers between levels are disclosed, effective at the end of the period, in the table below with the reasons for the transfers disclosed in a note to the table, if applicable.

The total net change in unrealized depreciation included in the Statement of Operations attributable to Level 3 investments held at June 30, 2012 was $0.
The Fund’s management has determined that Lehman Brothers UK Capital Funding IV LP is a Level 3 investment due to the lack of observable inputs that may be used in the determination of fair value. Management has also concluded there is no value for the investment on the basis that the company has filed for bankruptcy, the position is currently in default and is highly subordinated.

Note 4. Investment advisory fees and other transactions with affiliates
Pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement, Henderson Global Investors (North America) Inc. (“HGINA”) acts as the Funds’ investment adviser. HGINA is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Henderson Group plc. HGINA supervises the investments for Money Market and no fee is payable to HGINA at any time Money Market invests substantially all its assets in a master-feeder structure. HGINA earns a fee for its services to International All Cap Equity and Strategic Income based on the average daily net assets for International All Cap Equity and on average daily managed assets for Strategic Income as set forth below.
International All Cap | First $250 million | 0.85% |
Equity | Next $250 million | 0.80% |
Next $500 million | 0.75% | |
Over $1 billion | 0.65% | |
Strategic Income1 | First $1 billion | 0.55% |
Next $500 million | 0.50% | |
Over $1.5 billion | 0.45% |
1 Managed assets means the total assets of the Fund (including any assets attributable to any leverage that may be outstanding) minus the sum of accrued liabilities (other than debt representing financial leverage). Since the Fund pays HGINA based on the Fund’s average daily managed assets, the HGINA’s fee will be higher if the Fund is leveraged.
Pursuant to separate contractual Expense Limitation Agreements, HGINA has agreed to waive or limit each Fund’s expenses, (including its pro-rata allocation of expense from Money Market’s Master Portfolio) and, if necessary, to reimburse expenses of each Fund in order to limit total annual ordinary operating expenses, including distribution and service fees, as a percentage of average daily net assets is as follows:
Class B | ||||
Class A | and/or C | Class I | Class Z | |
International | ||||
All Cap | ||||
Equity | 1.40% | 2.15% | 1.15% | N/A |
Money | ||||
Market | 0.40% | 0.40% | N/A | 0.40% |
Strategic | ||||
Income | 1.10% | 1.85% | 0.85% | N/A |
These agreements are effective through July 31, 2020, except the agreement for Money Market, which is effective through July 31, 2013. Shares of the Funds are often purchased through financial intermediaries who are agents of the Funds for the limited purpose of completing purchases and sales.

Note 5. Compensation of trustees and officers
Certain officers and trustees of the Trust are also officers of HGINA. None of the Trust’s officers, other than the Chief Compliance Officer are compensated by the Trust. The Trust makes no direct payments to trustees affiliated with HGINA. Fees paid to Trustees are reflected as Trustees’ fees and expenses in the Statements of Operations.
The Funds bear a portion of the compensation paid to the compliance officers who perform services directly related to the Trust. This compensation is reflected as Compliance officer fees in the Statements of Operations.
Note 6. Distribution
The Trust has adopted a distribution plan for Class A, Class B and Class C shares of the Funds in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act (the “12b-1 Plan”). Under the 12b-1 Plan, the Funds pay the distributor an annual fee of 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to its Class A shares, and an annual fee of 1.00% of the average daily net assets attributable to its Class B and C shares. The 12b-1 Plan is used to induce or compensate financial intermediaries (including brokerage firms, depository institutions and other firms) to provide distribution and/or services to the Funds and their shareholders. In accordance with a waiver agreement, the distributor has agreed to waive all distribution and service fees for Money Market through April 30, 2013.
Note 7. Investment transactions
Purchases and sales of investment securities, excluding short-term investments and US government securities for the six months ended June 30, 2012, were as follows:
Purchases | Sales | |
International All Cap Equity | $4,499,217 | $33,338,743 |
Strategic Income | 11,600,827 | 4,498,947 |
The US federal income tax basis of investments, excluding foreign currency, forward currency contracts and futures contracts at June 30, 2012, and the gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation, were as follows:
International | ||
All Cap | Strategic | |
Equity | Income | |
Cost | $6,938,738 | $48,137,591 |
Gross unrealized appreciation | 805,203 | 2,182,335 |

Net unrealized appreciation/ | ||
depreciation | 338,630 | (2,228,776) |
Identified cost may differ for book and tax basis reporting purposes primarily due to tax deferral of losses on wash sales and PFIC transactions reflected as of June 30, 2012.
Tax cost and book cost are the same for Money Market.
Note 8. Significant concentrations
International All Cap Equity and Strategic Income invest a substantial percentage of their assets in securities of foreign issuers. International All Cap Equity may also invest a substantial percentage of its net assets in securities of emerging market countries. These investments may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investments in the United States as a result of, among other factors, the possibility of future political and economic developments and the level of governmental supervision and regulation of securities markets in the respective countries. Some countries in which the Fund invests may require government approval for repatriation of investment income, capital or the proceeds for sales of securities by foreign investors. In addition, if there is deterioration in a country’s balance of payments or for other reasons, a country may impose temporary restrictions on foreign capital remittances abroad. In addition, changes in currency exchange rates will affect the value of investments denominated in a foreign currency, as well as investment income derived from those securities.
Strategic Income invests primarily in income producing securities with a focus on foreign investment grade debt. It may also invest in lower quality high yield securities. Investing in high yield securities may involve greater risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in US Government bonds and other high quality fixed-income securities. These securities are non-investment grade securities, often referred to as “junk bonds”. Economic downturns may disrupt the high yield market and impair the ability of issuers to repay principal and interest. Also, an increase in interest rates would likely have an adverse impact on the value of such obligations. Moreover, high yield securities may be less liquid due to the extent that there is no established secondary market and because of a decline in value of such securities.
International All Cap Equity and Strategic Income may invest a high percentage of their net assets in specific sectors of the market in order to achieve a potentially greater investment return. As a result, the economic, political and regulatory developments in a particular sector of the market, positive or negative, have a greater impact on the Funds’ net assets and will cause the value of its shares to fluctuate more than if the Funds did not concentrate its investments in a particular sector.

Approval of continuation of investment advisory agreement
The Board of Trustees of Henderson Global Funds oversees the management of the Funds and, as required by law, the investment advisory and the sub-advisory agreements for the Funds (the “Advisory Agreements”). In connection with their annual consideration of those agreements for the Funds, the Trustees received and reviewed a substantial amount of information provided by Henderson Global Investors (North America) Inc. (the “Adviser”) and Henderson Investment Management Limited (the “Sub-Adviser”) in response to detailed requests of the Independent Trustees and their independent legal counsel. The Trustees also discussed with representatives of management the operations of the Funds and the nature and quality of the advisory and other services provided to the Funds by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser. The Independent Trustees also received and reviewed a memorandum from their counsel regarding their responsibilities in considering continuation of the agreements. Throughout their consideration of the agreements the Independent Trustees were advised by their independent legal counsel. The Independent Trustees met with management to consider the agreements, and at that meeting they also met separately in executive session with their counsel.
May 23, 2012 Meeting
At a meeting held on May 23, 2012, the Trustees reviewed and analyzed various factors that they determined were relevant, including the factors described below.
Nature, extent and quality of services
The Independent Trustees noted the various reports and presentations they had received in connection with their evaluation of the nature, extent and quality of services provided under the Advisory Agreements by the Adviser and Sub-Adviser, addressing the services performed by the Adviser and Sub-Adviser, as well as their expertise, resources and capabilities. The Trustees then reviewed and considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser (in the case of the International All Cap Equity Fund), taking into account the investment objective(s) and strategy of each Fund and the knowledge they had gained from their regular and special meetings. In addition, the Trustees reviewed the resources and key personnel of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, especially the personnel who provide investment management services to the Funds. Management provided an overview of the Adviser and its parent company and reviewed Henderson’s capabilities and resources. Management also reviewed the investment approach for the Funds and the qualifications of their respective portfolio management teams.
The Trustees considered the methodology the Adviser and the Subadviser use in determining compensation payable to portfolio managers, the very competitive environment for investment management talent and the competitive market for mutual funds in different distribution channels.
The Trustees also considered other services provided to the Funds by the Adviser and the Subadviser, such as managing the execution of portfolio transactions and the selection of broker-dealers for those transactions, monitoring adherence to the Funds’ investment restrictions, producing shareholder reports, providing support services for the Trustees and committees of the Board and overseeing the activities of other service providers, including monitoring compliance with various policies and procedures of the Funds and with applicable securities laws and regulations.
Investment performance and fees
The Independent Trustees noted that a review of investment performance is a key factor in evaluating the nature, extent and quality of services provided under investment management contracts. The Independent Trustees considered, in particular, the detailed reports and analyses performed and compiled by an independent third party, Lipper Inc. (the
40
Henderson Global Funds | Other information (unaudited) |
“Lipper Report”) that show, for each Fund and for various periods, total return performance data ranked within a performance universe and performance group. In addition, for purposes of their review of the reasonableness of the advisory fees, the Independent Trustees considered the expense rankings and quintiles tables, contractual management fees at common asset levels and at various asset levels, expense ratios and various other fees and expenses data and supporting information contained within the Lipper Report.
The Trustees then reviewed the performance and expenses of each Fund, including comparative and percentile ranking information in the Lipper Report.
Henderson International All Cap Equity Fund: The Board observed that the Fund ranked in the fifth quintile of its peer group and fourth quintile for its performance universe for performance over the one-year period. In this regard, the Board considered the Fund’s relatively short track record since its inception in 2008, but noted that its performance year-to-date ranked in the second quintile of its peer group and performance universe. With respect to fees and expenses, the Board noted that the Fund’s actual management fee and total expense ratio were below the median of its peer group.
Henderson Money Market Fund: While considering the Fund’s limited purpose and feeder fund structure, the Board observed that the Fund’s performance for the one-year period ranked in the first quintile of both its peer group and performance universe. With respect to the Fund’s fees and expenses, the Board took into account that the Fund’s contractual management fees were the lowest of its peer group and its total expense ratio was below the median expense ratio.
Henderson Strategic Income Fund: The Board considered that the Fund’s performance was appropriate in light of the particular management style involved, with performance ranking in the first quintile of its peer group and performance universe for the year-to-date and three-year periods and in the fifth quintile for the one-year and five-year periods, noting the change in portfolio managers prior to that period. The Board noted, in this regard, that, as a result of its investment program, the Fund traditionally underperforms in “risk-off” markets due to its larger weighting in high yield securities relative to peers. In assessing the Fund’s actual management fee and total expenses, the Board observed that the Fund’s actual management fee was in the first quintile and that the total expense ratio was competitive in comparison to its peer group.
The Trustees next reviewed the management fees of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser for certain affiliated funds and separate accounts and certain non-affiliated sub-advised funds (for which the Adviser or the Sub-Adviser provides only portfolio management services). Although in some instances the fee rates for various investment strategies were lower than management fees for Funds having a similar strategy, the Trustees noted that the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser perform significant additional services for the Funds that they generally do not provide to other clients, including administrative services, oversight of the Funds’ other service providers, Board support, regulatory compliance and numerous other services and that, in serving the Funds, the Adviser assumes many legal risks that it does not generally assume in merely providing portfolio management services to those other clients.
Costs of services provided and the profits realized by Henderson and its affiliates from their relationships with the funds
In considering the reasonableness of investment management service fees, the Independent Trustees also considered the expected profitability of Henderson and its affiliates in connection with Henderson providing investment management services to the Funds.
The Trustees also reviewed the financial information related to Henderson’s parent company and its corporate structure. The Trustees recognized that profitability comparisons among fund managers are difficult because very little comparative information is publicly available, and the profitability of any manager is affected by numerous factors, including the organizational structure of the particular manager, the types of funds and other accounts it manages, possible other lines of business, the methodology for allocating expenses and the manager’s capital structure and cost of capital.
Economies of scale
The Independent Trustees then considered the economies of scale that might be realized by the Adviser as a Fund grows and took note of the extent to which Fund shareholders might also benefit from such growth. In this connection, it was observed that the fee schedules include various pre-established “breakpoints” in investment management service fees that are triggered as a Fund’s net asset level increases. The Independent Trustees observed that each Fund (with the exception of the Money Market Fund) has remaining breakpoints that have not yet been reached. The Independent Trustees noted that based on the receipt of information showing the breakpoints, they were comfortable that such breakpoints satisfactorily provide for sharing economies of scale, as they allow for adequate opportunity for shareholders to realize benefits (fee breaks) as Fund assets grow. With respect to the Money Market Fund, the Independent Trustees concluded that there is limited potential for economies of scale that would inure to the benefit of the Fund’s shareholders given the Fund’s master feeder structure and limited purpose.

Other Benefits to the Adviser
The Trustees also considered benefits that accrue to the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser from their relationship with the Funds and their use of commissions paid on portfolio brokerage transactions of the Funds to obtain research products and services benefiting the Fund and/or other clients.
June 13-14, 2012 Meeting
At a meeting held on June 13-14, 2012, it was noted that the Board had met previously in-person on May 23, 2012, to review annual approval related materials. The representatives of the Adviser indicated that there had not been any material changes to the information that had been provided for the May 23, 2012 meeting.
Based on their evaluation of the information provided by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser and other information, the Trustees determined that the overall arrangements between the Funds and the Adviser were fair and reasonable in light of the nature and quality of the services provided by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, the fees charged for those services, and other matters that the Trustees considered relevant in the exercise of their business judgment. In making that determination, the Trustees reviewed and analyzed various factors that they determined were relevant, including the factors described below, none of which by itself was considered paramount or dispositive and each Trustee may have weighed the information differently.
Nature, extent and quality of services
The Trustees reviewed and considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser (in the case of the International All Cap Equity Fund), taking into account the investment objective and strategy of the Funds and the knowledge they had gained from their May 23, 2012 meeting and their regular meetings with management on at least a quarterly basis. The Trustees concluded that the nature and extent of the services provided to the Funds by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser were appropriate and consistent with the terms of the respective Advisory Agreements, that the quality of those services had been consistent with quality norms in the industry and that the Funds were likely to benefit from the continued provision of those services. They also concluded that the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser had sufficient personnel with the appropriate education and experience to serve the Funds effectively, and had demonstrated their continuing ability to attract and retain well-qualified personnel.
Performance and fees
The Trustees considered the Funds’ investment performance over various time periods in comparison to information for other comparable funds as provided by Lipper. They concluded that the performance of the Funds met or exceeded acceptable levels and that the Funds and their shareholders were benefiting from the current management of the Funds. The Trustees examined information on the fees and other expenses paid by the Funds in comparison to information for other comparable funds as provided by Lipper. The Trustees also reviewed the management fees of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser for certain affiliated funds and separate accounts and certain non-affiliated sub-advised funds (for which the Adviser or the Sub-Adviser provides only portfolio management services). The Trustees reviewed information on the profitability of (or loss) to the Adviser and its affiliates of their relationships with the Funds and concluded that the Adviser’s profitability level with respect to the Funds in relation to the services rendered was not unreasonable. Finally, the Trustees considered the financial condition of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, which they found to be sound. The Trustees concluded that the management fees and other compensation payable by the Funds to the Adviser, as well as the fees paid by the Adviser to the Sub-Adviser, were reasonable in relation to the nature and quality of the services provided, taking into account the fees charged by other advisers for managing comparable mutual funds with similar strategies and the fees the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser charge to other clients. The Trustees also concluded that the overall expense ratio of each Fund was reasonable, taking into account the size of the Fund, the quality of services provided by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, the investment performance of the Fund and the expense limitations agreed to by the Adviser.
Economies of scale
The Trustees received and considered information about the potential of the Adviser to experience economies of scale as the assets of the Funds increase. Based on all of the information they reviewed, the Trustees concluded that the current fee structure of the Funds was reasonable and, with the exception of the Money Market Fund, that those rates of fees are expected to reflect a sharing between the Adviser and the Funds of economies of scale. With respect to the Money Market Fund, the Independent Trustees concluded that there is limited potential for economies of scale that would inure to the benefit of the Fund’s shareholders given the Fund’s master feeder structure and limited purpose.
Other benefits to the adviser
The Trustees also considered benefits that accrue to the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser from their relationship with the Fund and their use of commissions paid on portfolio brokerage transactions of the Funds to obtain research products and services benefiting the Funds and/or other clients. The Trustees concluded that the use by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser of commissions paid by the Funds to obtain research products and services was consistent with regulatory requirements and likely benefits the Funds. After full consideration of the above factors as well as other factors that were instructive in analyzing the management arrangements, the Trustees, including all of the
42
Henderson Global Funds | Other information (unaudited) |
Independent Trustees, concluded that the continuation of the investment advisory and sub-advisory agreement for each Fund was in the best interest of the Fund and its shareholders.
Statement pursuant to section 19(a) of the investment company act of 1940
The exact source of aggregate fund distributions for each fiscal year can only be determined as of the end of each Fund’s fiscal year, December 31. However, under Section 19(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Funds are required to indicate the source of each distribution to shareholders at the time of payment if the distribution is made from any source other than accumulated undistributed net income. For purposes of this disclosure, the source of each distribution is based on U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) and will differ from federal income tax-based reporting provided to shareholders due to certain tax adjustments. For federal income tax purposes, the Funds will send you a Form 1099-DIV for each calendar year that will tell you how to report these distributions.
Strategic Income is making the following disclosure pursuant to Section 19(a).
During the period ended June 30, 2012, Strategic Income paid the following monthly distributions which were paid in part from sources other than accumulated undistributed net income as measured at the time of payment:
% from | % from | |||||
Accumu- | Accumu- | |||||
lated | lated | % from | ||||
Ex and | Record | Undistributed | Realized | Paid-In | ||
Pay Date | Date | Amount | Net Income | Gains | Capital | |
Jan. 30, | Jan. 27, | Class A: $0.027777 | 6.6% | 0.0% | 93.4% | |
2012 | 2012 | �� | Class B: $0.022366 | 6.6% | 0.0% | 93.4% |
Class C: $0.022406 | 6.6% | 0.0% | 93.4% | |||
Class I : $0.029971 | 6.6% | 0.0% | 93.4% |
All other monthly distributions paid by Strategic Income were paid exclusively from accumulated undistributed net income. In aggregate, approximately 93.4% or $132,655 of distributions paid by Strategic Income during the period ended June 30, 2012, were paid from paid-in capital.
Federal tax information
Certain tax information for the Funds is required to be provided to shareholders based on the Funds’ income and distributions for the taxable year ended December 31, 2012. In February 2013, shareholders will receive Form 1099-DIV, which will include their share of foreign tax credit, qualified dividends and capital gains distributed during the calendar year 2012. Shareholders are advised to check with their tax advisors for information on the treatment of these amounts on their individual income tax returns.
Shareholder expense
As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and redemption fees and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) fees, shareholder services fees and other Fund expenses. The example in Table 1 and Table 2 is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. It is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the six months ended June 30, 2012.
Actual expenses
Table 1 provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount invested, to estimate the expenses that you incurred over the period. Simply divide your account value at the end of the period by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses attributable to your investment during this period.
Hypothetical example for comparison purposes
Table 2 provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ actual return. Thus you should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate your actual ending account balance or the expense attributable to your investment during the period. Rather, these figures are provided to enable you to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds and other funds. To do so, compare the 5% hypothetical examples with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
Expenses paid during the period include amounts reflected in the Funds Statement of Operations net of reimbursements by the investment advisor. The annualized expense ratios used in the example are as follows:
Class A | Class B | Class C | Class I | Class Z | |||||||||||||||
International | |||||||||||||||||||
All Cap Equity | 1.40 | % | N/A | 2.15 | % | 1.15 | % | N/A | |||||||||||
Money Market | 0.27 | % | 0.28 | % | 0.28 | % | N/A | 0.26 | % | ||||||||||
Strategic Income | 1.10 | % | 1.85 | % | 1.85 | % | 0.85 | % | N/A |

Henderson Global Funds | Other information (unaudited) |
Please note that the expenses do not reflect shareowner transaction costs such as front-end sales charges and redemption fees. These fees are described for each Fund and share class in the Performance summary of this report on pages 3 and 5. Table 2 is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

STATE STREET MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO
SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT
June 30, 2012 (Unaudited)
State Street Money Market Portfolio (Unaudited)
EXPENSE EXAMPLE
As a shareholder of the State Street Money Market Portfolio, you incur ongoing costs, which include costs for portfolio management and administrative services, among others. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The example is based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period from January 1, 2012 to June 30, 2012.
The table below illustrates your Portfolio’s costs in two ways:
· | Based on actual fund return – This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The “Ending Account Value” shown is derived from the Portfolio’s actual return, and the third column shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the Portfolio. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. |
To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for the Portfolio under the heading “Expenses Paid During Period”. |
· | Based on hypothetical 5% return – This section is intended to help you compare your Portfolio’s costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the Portfolio had a yearly return of 5% before expenses, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case, because the return used is not the Portfolio’s actual return, the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% return. You can assess your Portfolio’s costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds. |
Six Months Ended June 30, 2012 | |||
Beginning | Ending | Expenses Paid | |
Account Value | Account Value | During | |
January 1, 2012 | June 30, 2012 | Period * | |
Based on Actual Portfolio Return | $1,000.00 | $1,001.30 | $0.35 |
Based on Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) | $1,000.00 | $1,024.52 | $0.35 |
* | The calculations are based on expenses incurred in the most recent six month period of the Portfolio. The annualized average weighted expense ratio as of June 30, 2012 was 0.07%. The dollar amounts shown as “Expenses Paid” are equal to the annualized average weighted expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 182/366 (the most recent six month period). |

2. Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements.
Security valuation – As permitted under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act and certain conditions therein, securities of the Portfolio are valued initially at cost and thereafter assume a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each business day.
The Portfolio adopted provisions surrounding fair value measurements and disclosures that define fair value, establish a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expand disclosures about fair value measurements. This applies to fair value measurements that are already required or permitted by other accounting standards and is intended to increase consistency of those measurements and applies broadly to securities and other types of assets and liabilities. In accordance with these provisions, fair value is defined as the price that a Portfolio would receive upon selling an investment in a timely transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market of the investment. Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Portfolio’s investments.
The three tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized below:
· | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities |
· | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
· | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a Portfolio’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the inputs used, as of June 30, 2012, in valuing the Portfolio’s assets carried at fair value:
Valuation Inputs | Investments in Securities | ||
Level 1 – Quoted Prices | $ | – | |
Level 2 – Other Significant Observable Inputs | 25,338,978,190 | ||
Level 3 – Significant Unobservable Inputs | – | ||
Total Investments | $ | 25,338,978,190 |
The type of inputs used to value each security under the provisions surrounding fair value measurement and disclosures is identified in the Portfolio of Investments, which also includes a breakdown of the Portfolio’s investments by category.
As of the six months ended June 30, 2012, there were no transfers between levels.
Securities transactions, investment income and expenses – Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Interest income is recorded daily on the accrual basis and includes amortization of premium and accretion of discount on investments. Premium is amortized and discount is accreted using the straight line method. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions are recorded on the basis of identified cost. Expenses are accrued daily.
All of the net investment income and realized gains and losses from the security transactions of the Portfolio are allocated pro rata among the partners in the Portfolio based on each partner’s daily ownership percentage.
Federal income taxes – The Portfolio is not required to pay federal income taxes on its net investment income and net capital gains because it is treated as partnerships for federal income tax purposes. All interest, gains and losses of the Portfolio are deemed to have been “passed through” to the Portfolio’s partners in proportion to their holdings in the respective Portfolio, regardless of whether such items have been distributed by the Portfolio. Each partner is responsible for tax liability based on its distributive share; therefore, no provision has been made for federal income taxes.
The Portfolio has reviewed the tax positions for open years as of December 31, 2011, and determined it does not have a liability for any unrecognized tax expenses. The Portfolio recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to tax liabilities as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. As of June 30, 2012, tax years 2008 through 2011 remain subject to examination by the Portfolio’s major tax jurisdictions, which include the United States of America and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
At June 30, 2012, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was substantially the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes.
Repurchase Agreements – A repurchase agreement customarily obligates the seller at the time it sells securities to the Portfolio to repurchase the securities at a mutually agreed upon price and time which, in the case of the Portfolio’s transactions, is generally within seven days. The total amount received by the Portfolio on repurchase is calculated to exceed the price paid by the Portfolio, reflecting an agreed-upon market rate of interest for the period of time to the settlement date, and is not necessarily related to the

interest rate on the underlying securities. The underlying securities are ordinarily United States Government securities, but may consist of other securities. The value of the underlying securities, at the time of purchase and each subsequent business day, is required to be maintained at such a level that the value is equal to at least the principal amount of the repurchase price plus accrued interest. The use of repurchase agreements involves certain risks. For example, if the seller of securities under a repurchase agreement defaults on its obligation to repurchase the underlying securities (as a result of its bankruptcy or otherwise) the Portfolio will seek to dispose of such securities; this action could involve costs or delays. In addition, the proceeds of any such disposition may be less than the amount the Portfolio is owed under the repurchase agreement. The Portfolio may enter into repurchase agreements maturing within seven days with domestic dealers, banks and other financial institutions deemed to be creditworthy by SSgA Funds Management, Inc. (“SSgA FM” or the “Adviser”), a subsidiary of State Street Corporation and an affiliate of State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”).
Expense allocation – Certain expenses are applicable to multiple Portfolios. Expenses directly attributable to the Portfolio are charged to that Portfolio. Expenses of the Trust that are not directly attributed to the Portfolio are allocated among the Portfolios, on the basis of relative net assets, except where a more appropriate allocation of expenses to each of the Portfolios can otherwise be made fairly.
Use of estimates – The Portfolio’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which require the use of management estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates. It is reasonably possible that these differences could be material.
Subsequent events – Management has determined that there are no subsequent events or transactions that would have materially impacted the Portfolios’ financial statements as presented.
3. Related Party Fees
The Portfolio has entered into an investment advisory agreement with the Adviser. The Adviser directs the investments of the Portfolio in accordance with their investment objectives, policies, and limitations. In compensation for the Adviser’s services as investment adviser, until January 31, 2011, the Portfolio paid the Adviser a management fee at an annual rate of 0.10% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets. Effective February 1, 2011, the contractual management fee rate in each Fund’s and Portfolio’s investment advisory agreement was reduced from an annual rate of 0.10% to 0.05% of its average daily net assets. On February 1, 2011, the Adviser implemented a management fee waiver that had the effect of implementing this change as of that date.
State Street is the administrator, custodian and transfer agent for the Portfolio. In compensation for State Street’s services as administrator, custodian and transfer agent beginning February 1, 2007, the Portfolio pays State Street an annual fee, which is accrued daily and payable monthly at the applicable fee rate described below, of the following annual percentages of the Trust’s average aggregate daily net assets during the month as follows:
Annual percentage of | |
Asset Levels | average aggregate daily net assets |
First $400 million | 0.03% |
Next $15 billion | 0.02% |
Thereafter | 0.01% |
Minimum annual fee | $150,000 |

4. Trustees’ Fees
The Trust pays each Trustee who is not an officer or employee of SSgA FM or State Street $5,000 for each meeting of the Board of Trustees and an additional $1,250 for each telephonic meeting attended. The Trust also pays each Trustee an annual retainer of $100,000. Each trustee is reimbursed for out-of-pocket and travel expenses.
5. Indemnifications
The Trust’s organizational documents provide that its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, both in some of its principal service contracts and in the normal course of its business, the Trust enters into contracts that provide indemnifications to other parties for certain types of losses or liabilities. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements in unknown as this could involve future claims against the Trust. Management does not expect any significant claims.
