Credit Suisse Asset Management Income Fund, Inc.
Semiannual Investment Adviser’s Report
June 30, 2015 (unaudited)
August 19, 2015
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to present this Semiannual Report covering the activities of the Credit Suisse Asset Management Income Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) for the semiannual period ended June 30, 2015.
Performance Summary
12/31/14 – 06/30/15
| | | | |
Fund & Benchmark | | Performance | |
Total Return (based on NAV)1 | | | 4.45 | % |
Total Return (based on market value)1 | | | 1.32 | % |
BofA Merrill Lynch US High Yield Master II Constrained Index2 | | | 2.50 | % |
Market Review: Issuance Slows Despite Positive Performance
The semiannual period ended June 30, 2015 was mixed for the high yield market. Positive macro-economic headlines during the first quarter led to a risk asset rally that drove positive returns. However, as the market headed into the second quarter, increased equity volatility, weakened technicals and wider sovereign yields led to muted returns. The BofA Merrill Lynch US High Yield Master II Constrained Index, the Fund’s benchmark, returned 2.50% for the period.
Yields were unchanged, ending the period at 6.65%. Spreads were slightly tighter, ending the period at +509 basis points (bps) versus +513 bps. For the period, B rated bonds led the market, returning 3.18%, followed by CCC rated bonds at 1.77% and BB rated bonds at 1.43%.
Par-weighted defaults ended the period at 1.88% — well below historical figures. While the overall default rates have been low, there has been outsized representation in the energy and coal sectors.
New issuance in the high yield market totaled $191.2 billion on a year-to-date basis, down 9% when compared to the first six months of 2014, according to JPMorgan.
Strategic Review and Outlook: Fed Hike Could Lead to Continued Volatility
For the semiannual period ended June 30, 2015, the Fund outperformed the benchmark on a NAV basis, but underperformed the benchmark on a market price basis. Exposures in B rated bonds as well as oil field equipment contributed to relative performance, while names in metals and theater & entertainment detracted from relative performance.
With increased volatility over the past few months, we continue to expect elevated dispersion going forward, making security selection an increasingly important contributor to returns.

Semiannual Investment Adviser’s Report

Excluding energy, the current fundamental backdrop continues to be benign with default expectations for the high yield market anticipated to remain below historical averages. However, a potential Fed rate hike is on the horizon and this could lead to continued market volatility in the near future.

High yield bonds are lower-quality bonds that are also known as “junk bonds.” Such bonds entail greater risks than those found in higher-rated securities.
In addition to historical information, this report contains forward-looking statements, which may concern, among other things, domestic and foreign market, industry and economic trends and developments and government regulation and their potential impact on the Fund’s investments. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties and actual trends, developments and regulations in the future, and their impact on the Fund could be materially different from those projected, anticipated or implied. The Fund has no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements.
The views of the Fund’s management are as of the date of the letter and the Fund holdings described in this document are as of June 30, 2015; these views and Fund holdings may have changed subsequent to these dates. Nothing in this document is a recommendation to purchase or sell securities.

Credit Suisse may waive fees and/or reimburses expenses, without which performance would be lower. Waivers and/or reimbursements are subject to change and may be discontinued at any time. Returns represent past performance. Total investment return at net asset value is based on changes in the net asset value of fund shares and assumes reinvestment of dividends and distributions, if any. Total investment return at market value is based on changes in the market price at which the Fund’s shares traded on the stock exchange during the period and assumes reinvestment of dividends and distributions, if any, at actual prices pursuant to the Fund’s dividend reinvestment program. Because the Fund’s shares trade in the stock market based on investor demand, the Fund may trade at a price higher or lower than its NAV. Therefore, returns are calculated based on share price and NAV. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The current performance of the Fund may be lower or higher than the figures shown. The Fund’s yield, return and market price and NAV will fluctuate. Performance information current to the most recent month-end is available by calling 1-800-293-1232.
The annualized gross and net expense ratios are 0.69%.

1 | Total investment return at net asset value is based on changes in the net asset value of Fund shares and assumes reinvestment of dividends and distributions, if any, at actual prices pursuant to the fund’s dividend reinvestment program. Total investment return at market value is based on changes in the market price at which the Fund’s shares traded on the stock exchange during the period and assumes reinvestment of dividends and distributions, if any, at actual prices pursuant to the Fund’s dividend reinvestment program. Because the Fund’s shares trade in the stock market based on investor demand, the Fund may trade at a price higher or lower than its NAV. Therefore, returns are calculated based on share price and NAV. Total returns for periods less than one year are not annualized. |

Notes to Financial Statements
June 30, 2015 (unaudited)
Note 1. Organization
Credit Suisse Asset Management Income Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) was incorporated on February 11, 1987 and is registered as a diversified, closed-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The investment objective of the Fund is to provide current income consistent with the preservation of capital.
Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Fund is considered an investment company for financial reporting purposes under GAAP and follows Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946 — Financial Services — Investment Companies.
A) SECURITY VALUATION — The net asset value of the Fund is determined daily as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (the “Exchange”) on each day the Exchange is open for business. The valuations for fixed income securities (which may include, but are not limited to, corporate, government, municipal, mortgage-backed, collateralized mortgage obligations and asset-backed securities) and certain derivative instruments are typically the prices supplied by independent third party pricing services, which may use market prices or broker/dealer quotations or a variety of valuation techniques and methodologies. The independent third party pricing services use inputs that are observable such as issuer details, interest rates, yield curves, prepayment speeds, credit risks/spreads, default rates and quoted prices for similar securities. Structured note agreements are valued in accordance with a dealer-supplied valuation based on changes in the value of the underlying index. Futures contracts are valued daily at the settlement price established by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. Forward contracts are valued at the London closing spot rates and the London closing forward point rates on a daily basis. The currency forward contract pricing model derives the differential in point rates to the expiration date of the forward and calculates its present value. Equity securities for which market quotations are available are valued at the last reported sales price or official closing price on the primary market or exchange on which they trade. The Fund may utilize a service provided by an independent third party which has been approved by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) to fair value certain securities. When fair value pricing is employed, the prices of securities used by the Fund to calculate its net asset value may differ from quoted or published prices for the same securities. If independent third party pricing services are unable to supply prices for a portfolio investment, or if the prices supplied are deemed by the investment adviser to be unreliable, the market price may be determined by the investment adviser using quotations from one or more broker/dealers or at the transaction price if the security has recently been purchased and no value has yet been obtained from a pricing service or pricing broker. When reliable prices are not readily available, such as when the value of a security has been significantly affected by events after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded, but before the Fund calculates its net asset value, the Fund values these securities as determined in accordance with procedures approved and established by the Board.
The Fund uses valuation techniques to measure fair value that are consistent with the market approach and/or income approach, depending on the type of security and the particular circumstance. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable securities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to discount estimated future cash flows to present value.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies
GAAP established a disclosure hierarchy that categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value assets and liabilities at each measurement date. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
| • | | Level 1 — quoted prices 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 the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of June 30, 2015 in valuing the Fund’s assets and liabilities carried at fair value:

Quantitative Disclosure About Significant Unobservable Inputs
| | | | | | | | | | | | |

Bank Loans | | $ | 8,225,643 | | | Market Approach | | Single Broker Quote | | | NA | |
Each fair value determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, including both observable and unobservable inputs. Observable and unobservable inputs Credit Suisse Asset Management LLC, the Fund’s investment adviser (“Credit Suisse” or the “Adviser”) considers may include (i) the existence of any contractual restrictions on the disposition of securities; (ii) information obtained from the company, which may include an analysis of the company’s financial statements, the company’s products or intended markets or the company’s technologies; (iii) the price of the same or similar security negotiated at arm’s length in an issuer’s completed subsequent round of financing; (iv) the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies; or (v) a probability and time value adjusted analysis of contractual term. Where available and appropriate, multiple valuation methodologies are applied to confirm fair value. Significant unobservable inputs identified by the Adviser are often used in the fair value determination. A significant change in any of these inputs may result in a significant change in the fair value measurement. Due to the uncertainty inherent in the valuation process, such estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed, and differences could be material. Additionally, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses ultimately realized on these investments to be different from the valuations used at the date of these financial statements.
The Fund follows Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) amendments to authoritative guidance which requires the Fund to disclose details of transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 measurements and Level 2 and Level 3 measurements and the reasons for the transfers. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, there were no transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2, but there were $3,473,340 transferred out from Level 2 to Level 3 due to lack of observable market data because of decrease in market activity and $421,109 transferred out from Level 3 to Level 2 as a result of the availability of a pricing source supported by observable inputs. All transfers are assumed to occur at the end of the reporting period.
B) DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES — The Fund adopted amendments to authoritative guidance on disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities which require that a fund disclose (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and hedging activities are accounted for and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedging activities affect a fund’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Fund’s derivatives did not qualify for hedge accounting as they are held at fair value.

| * | Statement of Operations includes both forward currency contracts and foreign currency transactions/translations. |
The notional amount of forward foreign currency contracts at the six months ended June 30, 2015 is reflected in the Schedule of Investments. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Fund had an average monthly value on a net basis of $5,469,099 in forward foreign currency contracts.
The Fund is a party to International Swap and Derivatives Association, Inc. (“ISDA”) Master Agreements (“Master Agreements”) with certain counterparties that govern over-the-counter derivative (including Total Return, Credit Default and Interest Rate Swaps) and foreign exchange contracts entered into by the Fund. The Master Agreements may contain provisions regarding, among other things, the parties’ general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral requirements, events of default and early termination. Termination events applicable to the Fund may occur upon a decline in the Fund’s net assets below a specified threshold over a certain period of time.
The following table presents by counterparty the Fund’s derivative assets net of related collateral held by the Fund at June 30, 2015:

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| (a) | Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are included. |
C) FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS — The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are recorded at the current prevailing exchange rates. All assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the current exchange rate at the end of the period. Translation gains or losses resulting from changes in the exchange rate during the reporting period and realized gains and losses on the settlement of foreign currency transactions are reported in the results of operations for the current period. The Fund does not isolate that portion of realized gains and losses on investments in equity securities which is due to changes in the foreign exchange rate from that which is due to changes in market prices of equity securities. The Fund isolates that portion of realized gains
20

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies
and losses on investments in debt securities which is due to changes in the foreign exchange rate from that which is due to changes in market prices of debt securities.
D) SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME/EXPENSE — Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Interest income/expense is recorded on the accrual basis. The Fund amortizes premiums and accretes discounts using the effective interest method. Dividend income/expense is recorded on the ex-dividend date. The cost of investments sold is determined by use of the specific identification method for both financial reporting and income tax purposes.
E) DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS — The Fund declares and pays dividends on a monthly basis and records them on ex-date. Distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, are declared and paid at least annually. However, to the extent that a net realized capital gain can be reduced by a capital loss carryforward, such gain will not be distributed. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.
The Fund’s dividend policy is to distribute substantially all of its net investment income to its shareholders on a monthly basis. However, in order to provide shareholders with a more consistent yield to the current trading price of shares of common stock of the Fund, the Fund may at times pay out less than the entire amount of net investment income earned in any particular month and may at times in any month pay out such accumulated but undistributed income in addition to net investment income earned in that month. As a result, the dividends paid by the Fund for any particular month may be more or less than the amount of net investment income earned by the Fund during such month.
F) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES — No provision is made for federal taxes as it is the Fund’s intention to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and to make the requisite distributions to its shareholders, which will be sufficient to relieve it from federal income and excise taxes.
In order to qualify as a RIC under the Code, the Fund must meet certain requirements regarding the source of its income, the diversification of its assets and the distribution of its income. One of these requirements is that the Fund derive at least 90% of its gross income for each taxable year from dividends, interest, payments with respect to certain securities loans, gains from the sale or other disposition of stock, securities or foreign currencies, other income derived with respect to its business of investing in such stock, securities or currencies or net income derived from interests in certain publicly traded partnerships (“Qualifying Income”).
The Fund adopted the authoritative guidance for uncertainty in income taxes and recognizes a tax benefit or liability from an uncertain position only if it is more likely than not that the position is sustainable based solely on its technical merits and consideration of the relevant taxing authority’s widely understood administrative practices and procedures. The Fund has reviewed its current tax positions and has determined that no provision for income tax is required in the Fund’s financial statements. The Fund’s federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the IRS.
G) SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS — The Fund, together with other funds/portfolios advised by Credit Suisse, pools available cash into a short-term variable rate time deposit issued by State Street Bank and Trust Company (“SSB”), the Fund’s custodian. The short-term time deposit issued by SSB is a variable rate account classified as a short-term investment.
H) FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS — The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts for the purchase or sale of a specific foreign currency at a fixed price on a future date. Risks may arise
21
Credit Suisse Asset Management Income Fund, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
June 30, 2015 (unaudited)
Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies
upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency. The Fund will enter into forward foreign currency contracts primarily for hedging foreign currency risk. Forward foreign currency contracts are adjusted by the daily forward exchange rate of the underlying currency and any gains or losses are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized until the contract settlement date or an offsetting position is entered into. The Fund’s open forward foreign currency contracts at June 30, 2015 are disclosed in the Schedule of Investments.
I) SECURITIES LENDING — Loans of securities are required at all times to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of domestic securities on loan (including any accrued interest thereon) and 105% of the market value of foreign securities on loan (including any accrued interest thereon). Cash collateral received by the Fund in connection with securities lending activity may be pooled together with cash collateral for other funds/portfolios advised by Credit Suisse and may be invested in a variety of investments, including funds advised by SSB, the Fund’s securities lending agent or money market instruments. However, in the event of default or bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement, realization and/or retention of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings.
SSB has been engaged by the Fund to act as the Fund’s securities lending agent. As of June 30, 2015, the Fund had investment securities on loan with a fair value of $14,241,860 and a related liability of $14,619,471 for collateral received on securities loaned, both of which are presented gross on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The collateral for securities loaned is valued consistently to the other investments held by the Fund and is included in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, the value of the related collateral exceeded the value of the securities loaned.
The Fund’s securities lending arrangement provides that the Fund and SSB will share the net income earned from securities lending activities. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, total earnings from the Fund’s investment in cash collateral received in connection with securities lending arrangements was $59,093, of which $1,174 was rebated to borrowers (brokers). The Fund retained $49,186 in income from the cash collateral investment, and SSB, as lending agent, was paid $8,733. Securities lending income is accrued as earned.
J) OTHER — Lower-rated debt securities (commonly known as “junk bonds”) possess speculative characteristics and are subject to greater market fluctuations and risk of lost income and principal than higher-rated debt securities for a variety of reasons. Also, during an economic downturn or substantial period of rising interest rates, highly leveraged issuers may experience financial stress which would adversely affect their ability to service their principal and interest payment obligations, to meet projected business goals and to obtain additional financing.
In the normal course of business the Fund trades financial instruments and enters into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists due to changes in the market (market risk) or failure of the other party to a transaction to perform (credit risk). Similar to credit risk, the Fund may be exposed to counterparty risk, or the risk that an institution or other entity with which the Fund has unsettled or open transactions will default. The potential loss could exceed the value of the financial assets recorded in the financial statements. Financial assets, which potentially expose the Fund to credit risk, consist principally of cash due from counterparties and investments. The extent of the Fund’s exposure to credit and counterparty risks in respect to these financial assets approximates their carrying value as recorded in the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies
In addition, periods of economic uncertainty and changes can be expected to result in increased volatility of market prices of lower-rated debt securities and the Fund’s net asset value.
K) NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS — In June 2014, FASB issued ASU No. 2014-11, Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860), Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures. The ASU changes the accounting for certain repurchase agreements and expands disclosure requirements related to repurchase agreements, securities lending, repurchase-to-maturity and similar transactions. The ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014.
L) SUBSEQUENT EVENTS — In preparing the financial statements as of June 30, 2015, management considered the impact of subsequent events for potential recognition or disclosure in these financial statements through the date of release of this report. No such events requiring recognition or disclosure were identified through the date of the release of this report.
Note 3. Transactions with Affiliates and Related Parties
Credit Suisse serves as investment adviser for the Fund. For its investment advisory services, Credit Suisse is entitled to receive a fee from the Fund at a rate per annum, computed weekly and paid quarterly as follows: 0.50% of the lower of the weekly stock price (market value) of the Fund’s outstanding shares or its average weekly net assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, investment advisory fees earned were $418,858.
SSB serves as Accounting and Administrative Agent for the Fund. For its administrative services, SSB receives a fee, exclusive of out-of-pocket expenses, calculated in total for all the Credit Suisse funds/portfolios co-administered by SSB and allocated based upon the relative average net assets of each fund/portfolio, subject to an annual minimum fee. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, administrative services fees earned by SSB (including out-of-pocket expenses) with respect to the Fund were $27,001.
The Independent Directors receive fifty percent (50%) of their annual retainer in the form of shares of the Fund. During the six months ended June 30, 2015 and the year ended December 31, 2014, 0 shares and 16,858 shares were issued through the Directors’ compensation plan, respectively. Directors as a group own less than 1% of the Fund’s outstanding shares as of June 30, 2015.
Note 4. Line of Credit
The Fund, together with other funds/portfolios advised by Credit Suisse (collectively, the “Participating Funds”), participates in a committed, unsecured line of credit facility (“Credit Facility”), in an aggregated amount of $200 million for temporary or emergency purposes with SSB under a first-come, first-served basis. Under the terms of the Credit Facility, the Participating Funds pay an aggregate commitment fee on the average unused amount of the Credit Facility, which is allocated among the Participating Funds in such manner as is determined by the governing Boards of the Participating Funds. In addition, the Participating Funds pay interest on borrowings at either the Overnight Federal Funds rate or the Overnight LIBOR rate plus a spread. At June 30, 2015, the Fund had loans outstanding under the Credit Facility of $0. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Fund had borrowings under the Credit Facility as follows:
| | | | | | |
Average Daily Loan Balance | | Weighted Average Interest Rate % | | Maximum Daily Loan Outstanding | | Interest Paid |
$2,663 | | 1.380% | | $482,000 | | $18 |

Note 5. Purchases and Sales of Securities
For the six months ended June 30, 2015, purchases and sales of investment securities (excluding short-term investments) were $51,041,785 and $49,509,903, respectively.
Note 6. Fund Shares
The Fund offers a Dividend Reimbursement Plan (the “Plan”) to its common stockholders. By participating in the Plan, dividends and distributions will be promptly paid to stockholders in additional shares of common stock of the Fund. The number of shares to be issued will be determined by dividing the total amount of the distribution payable by the greater of (i) the net asset value per share (“NAV”) of the Fund’s common stock on the payment date, or (ii) 95% of the market price per share of the Fund’s common stock on the payment date. If the NAV of the Fund’s common stock is greater than the market price (plus estimated brokerage commissions) on the payment date, then Computershare (or a broker-dealer selected by Computershare) shall endeavor to apply the amount of such distribution to purchase shares of Fund common stock in the open market.
The Fund has one class of shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share; one hundred million shares are authorized. Transactions in shares of common stock were as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2015 (unaudited) | | | For the Year Ended December 31, 2014 | |

| | | | | | | | |
Note 7. Contingencies
In the normal course of business, the Fund may provide general indemnifications pursuant to certain contracts and organizational documents. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund and, therefore, cannot be estimated; however, based on experience, the risk of loss from such claims is considered remote.
Note 8. Other Matters
On May 19, 2014, the U.S. Department of Justice (the “Department of Justice”) filed a one-count criminal information (the “Information”) in the District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia (the “District Court”) charging Credit Suisse AG (“CSAG”) with conspiracy to commit tax fraud related to accounts CSAG established for cross-border clients. The Department of Justice and CSAG entered into a plea agreement (the “Plea Agreement”) settling the action pursuant to which CSAG pleaded guilty to the charge set out in the Information.
The Plea Agreement requires CSAG to pay over $1.8 billion to the U.S. government, including the U.S. Internal Revenue Service. The Plea Agreement also requires CSAG to lawfully undertake certain remedial actions to address the conduct described in the Plea Agreement.
CSAG has entered into other settlements relating to the conduct set out in the Plea Agreement. CSAG has entered into a Consent Order with the Federal Reserve Board (the “Federal Reserve”) to resolve certain findings by the Federal Reserve, including that the activities of CSAG regarding opening of foreign accounts for U.S. taxpayers, provision of investment services to U.S. clients, and operation of CSAG’s New York representative office prior to 2009 lacked adequate enterprise-wide risk management and compliance policies and procedures

sufficient to ensure that all of its activities comply with U.S. laws and regulations. In addition, CSAG has entered into a Consent Order with the New York State Department of Financial Services (the “DFS”) to resolve the DFS’s investigation into the conduct described in the Plea Agreement. The settlement with the Federal Reserve requires CSAG to pay $100 million to the Federal Reserve, and the settlement with the DFS requires CSAG to pay $715 million to the DFS.
These settlements follow a settlement by Credit Suisse Group AG (“CS Group”), the parent company of CSAG, with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on February 21, 2014 to resolve an investigation by the Commission into solicitation and provision of broker-dealer and investment advisory services to certain U.S. cross-border clients by CS Group while not registered with the Commission as a broker-dealer or investment adviser. As part of the settlement, CS Group retained an independent consultant to evaluate its policies and procedures and examine its broker-dealer and investment adviser activities to fully verify that the business that was the subject of the Commission investigation has been completely exited. CS Group also agreed to pay $196,511,014, which includes $82,170,990 in disgorgement, $64,340,024 in interest and a $50,000,000 penalty.
CSAG is the indirect parent company of Credit Suisse and CSSU. Neither Credit Suisse, CSSU nor the Fund was named in the Plea Agreement (as defined above) or other settlements relating to the conduct set out in the Plea Agreement. The conduct set out in the Plea Agreement did not involve the Fund, Credit Suisse or CSSU with respect to its investment adviser and distribution activities relating to the Fund.
Credit Suisse, CSSU and certain of their affiliates have received a permanent exemptive order from the Commission to permit them to continue serving as investment advisers and principal underwriters for U.S.-registered investment companies, such as the Fund. Due to a provision in the law governing the operation of U.S.-registered investment companies, they would otherwise have become ineligible to perform these activities as a result of the plea in the Plea Agreement. The permanent exemptive order permits Credit Suisse and CSSU to continue to provide services to the Fund, so long as, among other things, no current or former employee of CSAG or any affiliate of CSAG who previously has been or who subsequently may be identified by CSAG or any U.S. or non-U.S. regulatory or enforcement agencies as having been responsible for the conduct described in the Plea Agreement will be employed by Credit Suisse and certain of its affiliates. Credit Suisse and CSSU have informed the Fund that, Credit Suisse and CSSU believe the Settlements will not have any material impact on the Fund or on the ability of Credit Suisse or CSSU to perform services for the Fund.
On November 21, 2014, at the sentencing hearing, the District Court accepted and implemented the sentence as set out in the Plea Agreement. The District Court imposed no additional conditions beyond those contained in the Plea Agreement.

Dividend Reinvestment and Cash Purchase Plan (unaudited)
Credit Suisse Asset Management Income Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) offers a Dividend Reinvestment and Cash Purchase Plan (the “Plan”) to its common stockholders. The Plan offers common stockholders a prompt and simple way to reinvest net investment income dividends and capital gains and other periodic distributions in shares of the Fund’s common stock. Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (“Computershare”) acts as Plan Agent for stockholders in administering the Plan.
If your shares of common stock of the Fund are registered in your own name, you will automatically participate in the Plan, unless you have indicated that you do not wish to participate and instead wish to receive dividends and capital gains distributions in cash. If you are a beneficial owner of the Fund having your shares registered in the name of a bank, broker or other nominee, you must first make arrangements with the organization in whose name your shares are registered to have the shares transferred into your own name. Registered shareholders can join the Plan via the Internet by going to www.computershare.com, authenticating your online account, agreeing to the Terms and Conditions of online “Account Access” and completing an online Plan Enrollment Form. Alternatively, you can complete the Plan Enrollment Form and return it to Computershare at the address below.
By participating in the Plan, your dividends and distributions will be promptly paid to you in additional shares of common stock of the Fund. The number of shares to be issued to you will be determined by dividing the total amount of the distribution payable to you by the greater of (i) the net asset value per share (“NAV”) of the Fund’s common stock on the payment date, or (ii) 95% of the market price per share of the Fund’s common stock on the payment date. If the NAV of the Fund’s common stock is greater than the market price (plus estimated brokerage commissions) on the payment date, then Computershare (or a broker-dealer selected by Computershare) shall endeavor to apply the amount of such distribution on your shares to purchase shares of Fund common stock in the open market.
You should be aware that all net investment income dividends and capital gain distributions are taxable to you as ordinary income and capital gain, respectively, whether received in cash or reinvested in additional shares of the Fund’s common stock.
The Plan also permits participants to purchase shares of the Fund through Computershare. You may invest $100 or more monthly, with a maximum of $100,000 in any annual period. Computershare will purchase shares for you on the open market on the 25th of each month or the next trading day if the 25th is not a trading day.
There is no service fee payable by Plan participants for dividend reinvestment. For voluntary cash payments, Plan participants must pay a service fee of $5.00 per transaction. Plan participants will also be charged a pro rata share of the brokerage commissions for all open market purchases ($0.03 per share as of October 2006). Participants will also be charged a service fee of $5.00 for each sale and brokerage commissions of $0.03 per share (as of October 2006).
You may terminate your participation in the Plan at any time by notifying Computershare or requesting a sale of your shares held in the Plan. Your withdrawal will be effective immediately if your notice is received by Computershare prior to any dividend or distribution record date; otherwise, such termination will be effective only with respect to any subsequent dividend or distribution. Your dividend participation option will remain the same unless you withdraw all of your whole and fractional Plan shares, in which case your participation in the Plan will be terminated and you will receive subsequent dividends and capital gains distributions in cash instead of shares.
