The Gabelli Global Rising Income and Dividend Fund Annual Report — December 31, 2013


		Mario J. Gabelli, CFA
		Portfolio Manager

To Our Shareholders,

For the year ended December 31, 2013, the net asset value (“NAV”) per Class AAA Share of The Gabelli Global Rising Income and Dividend Fund (formerly the GAMCO Vertumnus Fund) increased 14.3% compared with increases of 16.9% and 26.7% for the Bank of America Merrill Lynch Global 300 Convertible Index and the Morgan Stanley Capital International (“MSCI”) World Free Index, respectively. See page 3 for additional performance information.

Enclosed are the schedule of investments and financial statements as of December 31, 2013.

Performance Discussion (Unaudited)

The Board of Directors approved a change to the name of the Fund, effective April 30, 2013, to The Gabelli Global Rising Income and Dividend Fund.

The Fund’s objective is to obtain a high level of total return through a combination of current income and capital appreciation. The Fund will attempt to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in dividend paying securities (such as common and preferred stock) or other income producing securities (such as fixed income securities and securities that are convertible into common stock). The Fund will primarily invest in common stocks of foreign and domestic issuers that the Fund’s portfolio manager believes are likely to pay dividends and income and have the potential for above average capital appreciation and dividend increases.

We weigh both country specific and company specific factors to make our investment decisions. Country specific factors include political stability, economic growth, inflation, and trends in interest rates. With regard to companies, we seek firms that are undervalued in relation to their long term potential value. We then look for some dynamic in the country or company, which can unlock this value. For example, in developing countries, it is the need to provide the infrastructure for growth. In Japan, it is the change from an industrial to a consumer oriented economy. In commodities, it is the increase in industrial demand.

Approximately 15% of the holdings within the portfolio are Convertible securities. During the year, convertibles outpaced other fixed income asset classes, besting the negative year to date performance of both government and high grade corporate bonds and bettering the mid-single digit performance of high yield bonds. Demand for new convertibles issuance continues to remain strong as global new issuance reached $93 billion in 2013. Nearly all industry sectors posted positive returns for the year, with Consumer Noncyclical, Transports, and select Industrials sectors outperforming while Basic Industry, Capital Goods, and Financials lagged on a relative basis.

Selected holdings that contributed positively to performance in 2013 were Berkshire Hathaway Inc., Cl. A (3.5% of net assets as of December 31, 2013), a firm primarily engaging in the insurance and reinsurance of property and casualty risks; GenCorp Inc., 4.063%, due 12/31/39 (2.0%), a U.S. manufacturer and seller of aerospace and defense products and systems; and Kinnevik Investment AB, Cl. A (4.1%), a diversified company providing packaging materials, prepaid cellular technology, renewable energy facilities and farm supplies. Some of our weaker performing securities were Textron Inc. 4.500%, due 5/1/13 (no longer held in the portfolio), an operator of aircraft, defense, industrial and finance businesses worldwide; Newmont Mining Corp. 1.625%, due 7/15/17 (1.3%), a company engaging in the acquisition, exploration, and production of gold and copper properties; and Softbank Corp. 1.500%, due 3/31/13 (no longer held in the portfolio), a company operating in the information industry through four segments: mobile communications, broadband infrastructure, fixed-line telecommunications, and internet culture.

We appreciate your confidence and trust.


		Sincerely yours,



		Bruce N. Alpert

See page 11 for the expense ratios for the year ended December 31, 2013. Class AAA and Class I Shares do not have a sales charge. The maximum sales charge for Class A and Class C Shares is 5.75% and 1.00%, respectively.
(a)	Returns represent past performance and do not guarantee future results. Total returns and average annual returns reflect changes in share price, reinvestment of distributions, and are net of expenses. Investment returns and the principal value of an investment will fluctuate. When shares are redeemed, they may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data presented. Visit www.gabelli.com for performance information as of the most recent month end. Returns would have been lower had Gabelli Funds, LLC (the “Adviser”) not reimbursed certain expenses of the Fund. The Fund imposes a 2% redemption fee on shares sold or exchanged within seven days after the date of purchase. Investors should carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses of the Fund before investing. The prospectuses contain information about these and other matters and should be read carefully before investing. To obtain a prospectus please visit our website at www.gabelli.com. The Class AAA Share NAVs are used to calculate performance for the periods prior to the issuance of Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class I Shares on May 2, 2001, November 26, 2001, and January 11, 2008, respectively. The actual performance of the Class A Shares and Class C Shares would have been lower due to the additional fees and expenses associated with these classes of shares. The actual performance of the Class I Shares would have been higher due to lower expenses related to this class of shares. The Bank of America Merrill Lynch Global 300 Convertible Index is an unmanaged global convertible index composed of companies representative of the market structure of countries in North America, Europe, and the Asia/Pacific region. The MSCI World Free Index is an unmanaged free float adjusted market capitalization weighted index composed of companies representative of the market structure of developed market countries in North America, Europe, and the Asia/Pacific region. The Lipper Convertible Securities Fund Average reflects the average performance of mutual funds classified in this particular category. Dividends are considered reinvested. You cannot invest directly in an index.
(b)	Performance results include the effect of the maximum 5.75% sales charge at the beginning of the period.
(c)	Assuming payment of the 1% maximum contingent deferred sales charge imposed on redemptions made within one year of purchase.
(d)	There is no data available for the Bank of America Merrill Lynch Global 300 Convertible Index prior to December 31, 1994.
(e)	MSCI World Free Index since inception performance is as of January 31, 1994.

The Gabelli Global Rising Income and Dividend Fund
Disclosure of Fund Expenses (Unaudited)
For the Six Month Period from July 1, 2013 through December 31, 2013		Expense Table

We believe it is important for you to understand the impact of fees and expenses regarding your investment. All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a shareholder of a fund, you incur ongoing costs, which include costs for portfolio management, administrative services, and shareholder reports (like this one), among others. Operating expenses, which are deducted from a fund’s gross income, directly reduce the investment return of a fund. When a fund’s expenses are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets, this figure is known as the expense ratio. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your Fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.

The Expense Table below illustrates your Fund’s costs in two ways:

Actual Fund Return: This section provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this section to help you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period after any fee waivers and expense reimbursements. The “Ending Account Value” shown is derived from the Fund’s actual return during the past six months, and the “Expenses Paid During Period” shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the Fund. You may use this information, 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 your Fund under the heading “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid during this period.

Hypothetical 5% Return: This section provides information about hypothetical account values and

hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio. It assumes a hypothetical annualized return of 5% before expenses during the period shown. In this case – because the hypothetical return used is not the Fund’s actual return – the results do not apply to your investment and you cannot use the hypothetical account value and expense to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. This example is useful in making comparisons of the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees, if any, which are described in the Prospectus. If these costs were applied to your account, your costs would be higher. Therefore, the 5% hypothetical return is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. The “Annualized Expense Ratio” represents the actual expenses for the last six months and may be different from the expense ratio in the Financial Highlights which is for the year ended December 31, 2013.

The Gabelli Global Rising Income and Dividend Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

1. Organization. Effective April 30, 2013, The GAMCO Vertumnus Fund changed its name to The Gabelli Global Rising Income and Dividend Fund with a corresponding change in the name of each of its Classes of Shares. The Fund, a series of GAMCO Global Series Funds, Inc. (the “Corporation”), was incorporated on July 16, 1993 in Maryland. The Fund is a non-diversified open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), and one of four separately managed portfolios (collectively, the “Portfolios”) of the Corporation. The Fund’s primary objective is to obtain a high level of total return through a combination of income and capital appreciation. The Fund commenced investment operations on February 3, 1994.

In conjunction with the Fund’s name change, the Fund implemented a policy to invest, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in dividend paying securities.

2. Significant Accounting Policies. The Fund’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), which may require the use of management estimates and assumptions. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.

Security Valuation. Portfolio securities listed or traded on a nationally recognized securities exchange or traded in the U.S. over-the-counter market for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last quoted sale price or a market’s official closing price as of the close of business on the day the securities are being valued. If there were no sales that day, the security is valued at the average of the closing bid and asked prices or, if there were no asked prices quoted on that day, then the security is valued at the closing bid price on that day. If no bid or asked prices are quoted on such day, the security is valued at the most recently available price or, if the Board of Directors (the “Board”) so determines, by such other method as the Board shall determine in good faith to reflect its fair market value. Portfolio securities traded on more than one national securities exchange or market are valued according to the broadest and most representative market, as determined by Gabelli Funds, LLC (the “Adviser”).

Portfolio securities primarily traded on a foreign market are generally valued at the preceding closing values of such securities on the relevant market, but may be fair valued pursuant to procedures established by the Board if market conditions change significantly after the close of the foreign market, but prior to the close of business on the day the securities are being valued. Debt instruments with remaining maturities of sixty days or less that are not credit impaired are valued at amortized cost, unless the Board determines such amount does not reflect the securities’ fair value, in which case these securities will be fair valued as determined by the Board. Debt instruments having a maturity greater than sixty days for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the average of the latest bid and asked prices. If there were no asked prices quoted on such day, the security is valued using the closing bid price. U.S. government obligations with maturities greater than sixty days are normally valued using a model that incorporates market observable data such as reported sales of similar securities, broker quotes, yields, bids, offers, and reference data. Certain securities are valued principally using dealer quotations.

Securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available are fair valued as determined by the Board. Fair valuation methodologies and procedures may include, but are not limited to: analysis and review of available financial and non-financial information about the company; comparisons with the valuation and changes in valuation of similar securities, including a comparison of foreign securities with the equivalent U.S.

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

dollar value American Depositary Receipt securities at the close of the U.S. exchange; and evaluation of any other information that could be indicative of the value of the security.

The inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value of the Fund’s investments are summarized into three levels as described in the hierarchy 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.); and

—

Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Board’s determinations as to the fair value of investments).

A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input both individually and in the aggregate that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The summary of the Fund’s investments in securities by inputs used to value the Fund’s investments as of December 31, 2013 is as follows:


	Valuation Inputs
	Level 1 Quoted Prices		Level 2 Other Significant Observable Inputs		Level 3 Significant Unobservable Inputs		Total Market Value at 12/31/13

(a)	Please refer to the Schedule of Investments for the industry classifications of these portfolio holdings.

*	Other financial instruments are derivatives reflected in the SOI, such as options, futures, forwards, and swaps, which may be valued at the unrealized appreciation/depreciation of the instrument.

The Fund did not have transfers among Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 during the year ended December 31, 2013. The Fund’s policy is to recognize transfers among Levels as of the beginning of the reporting period.

Additional Information to Evaluate Qualitative Information.

General. The Fund uses recognized industry pricing services – approved by the Board and unaffiliated with the Adviser – to value most of its securities, and uses broker quotes provided by market makers of securities not valued by these and other recognized pricing sources. Several different pricing feeds are received to value domestic equity securities, international equity securities, preferred equity securities, and fixed income securities. The data within these feeds is ultimately sourced from major stock exchanges and trading systems where these securities trade. The prices supplied by external sources are checked by obtaining quotations or actual transaction

The Gabelli Global Rising Income and Dividend Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

prices from market participants. If a price obtained from the pricing source is deemed unreliable, prices will be sought from another pricing service or from a broker/dealer that trades that security or similar securities.

Fair Valuation. Fair valued securities may be common and preferred equities, warrants, options, rights, and fixed income obligations. Where appropriate, Level 3 securities are those for which market quotations are not available, such as securities not traded for several days, or for which current bids are not available, or which are restricted as to transfer. Among the factors to be considered to fair value a security are recent prices of comparable securities that are publicly traded, reliable prices of securities not publicly traded, the use of valuation models, current analyst reports, valuing the income or cash flow of the issuer, or cost if the preceding factors do not apply. A significant change in the unobservable inputs could result in a lower or higher value in Level 3 securities. The circumstances of Level 3 securities are frequently monitored to determine if fair valuation measures continue to apply.

The Adviser reports quarterly to the Board the results of the application of fair valuation policies and procedures. These include back testing the prices realized in subsequent trades of these fair valued securities to fair values previously recognized.

Derivative Financial Instruments. The Fund may engage in various portfolio investment strategies by investing in a number of derivative financial instruments for the purposes of increasing the income of the Fund, hedging against changes in the value of its portfolio securities and in the value of securities it intends to purchase, or hedging against a specific transaction with respect to either the currency in which the transaction is denominated or another currency. Investing in certain derivative financial instruments, including participation in the options, futures, or swap markets, entails certain execution, liquidity, hedging, tax, and securities, interest, credit, or currency market risks. Losses may arise if the Adviser’s prediction of movements in the direction of the securities, foreign currency, and interest rate markets is inaccurate. Losses may also arise if the counterparty does not perform its duties under a contract, or that, in the event of default, the Fund may be delayed in or prevented from obtaining payments or other contractual remedies owed to it under derivative contracts. The creditworthiness of the counterparties is closely monitored in order to minimize these risks. Participation in derivative transactions involves investment risks, transaction costs, and potential losses to which the Fund would not be subject absent the use of these strategies. The consequences of these risks, transaction costs, and losses may have a negative impact on the Fund’s ability to pay distributions.

Collateral requirements differ by type of derivative. Collateral requirements are set by the broker or exchange clearing house for exchange traded derivatives, while collateral terms are contract specific for derivatives traded over-the-counter. Securities pledged to cover obligations of the Fund under derivative contracts are noted in the Schedule of Investments. Cash collateral, if any, pledged for the same purpose will be reported separately in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

The Fund’s policy with respect to offsetting is that, absent an event of default by the counterparty or a termination of the agreement, the master netting agreement does not result in an offset of reported amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities across transactions between the Fund and the applicable counterparty. The enforceability of the right to offset may vary by jurisdiction.

The Fund’s derivative contracts held at December 31, 2013, if any, are not accounted for as hedging instruments under GAAP and are disclosed in the Schedule of Investments together with the related counterparty.

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

Forward Foreign Exchange Contracts. The Fund may engage in forward foreign exchange contracts for the purpose of hedging a specific transaction with respect to either the currency in which the transaction is denominated or another currency as deemed appropriate by the Adviser. Forward foreign exchange contracts are valued at the forward rate and are marked-to-market daily. The change in market value is included in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on investments and foreign currency translations. When the contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed.

The use of forward foreign exchange contracts does not eliminate fluctuations in the underlying prices of the Fund’s portfolio securities, but it does establish a rate of exchange that can be achieved in the future. Although forward foreign exchange contracts limit the risk of loss due to a decline in the value of the hedged currency, they also limit any potential gain that might result should the value of the currency increase. Forward foreign exchange contracts at December 31, 2013 are reflected within the Schedule of Investments.

The Fund’s volume of activity in forward foreign currency contracts during the year ended December 31, 2013 had an average monthly notional amount of approximately $1,502,435.

At December 31, 2013, the Fund’s derivative liabilities (by type) are as follows:


		Gross Amounts Not Offset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities
	Gross Amounts of Recognized Liabilities Presented in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities	Gross Amounts Available for Offset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities	Financial Instruments	Cash Collateral Pledged	Net Amount
Liabilities
Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts	$13,205	—	—	—	$13,205

Securities Sold Short. The Fund may enter into short sale transactions. Short selling involves selling securities that may or may not be owned and, at times, borrowing the same securities for delivery to the purchaser, with an obligation to replace such borrowed securities at a later date. The proceeds received from short sales are recorded as liabilities and the Fund records an unrealized gain or loss to the extent of the difference between the proceeds received and the value of an open short position on the day of determination. The Fund records a realized gain or loss when the short position is closed out. By entering into a short sale, the Fund bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security sold short. Dividends on short sales are recorded as an expense by the Fund on the ex-dividend date and interest expense is recorded on the accrual basis. The broker retains collateral for the value of the open positions, which is adjusted periodically as the value of the position fluctuates. At December 31, 2013, there were no short sales outstanding.

The Gabelli Global Rising Income and Dividend Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

date and settlement date on investment securities transactions, foreign currency transactions, and the difference between the amounts of interest and dividends recorded on the books of the Fund and the amounts actually received. The portion of foreign currency gains and losses related to fluctuation in exchange rates between the initial purchase trade date and subsequent sale trade date is included in realized gain/(loss) on investments.

Foreign Securities. The Fund may directly purchase securities of foreign issuers. Investing in securities of foreign issuers involves special risks not typically associated with investing in securities of U.S. issuers. The risks include possible revaluation of currencies, the inability to repatriate funds, less complete financial information about companies, and possible future adverse political and economic developments. Moreover, securities of many foreign issuers and their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than those of securities of comparable U.S. issuers.

Foreign Taxes. The Fund may be subject to foreign taxes on income, gains on investments, or currency repatriation, a portion of which may be recoverable. The Fund will accrue such taxes and recoveries as applicable, based upon its current interpretation of tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which it invests.

Restricted Securities. The Fund may invest up to 15% of its net assets in securities for which the markets are restricted. Restricted securities include securities whose disposition is subject to substantial legal or contractual restrictions. The sale of restricted securities often requires more time and results in higher brokerage charges or dealer discounts and other selling expenses than does the sale of securities eligible for trading on national securities exchanges or in the over-the-counter markets. Restricted securities may sell at a price lower than similar securities that are not subject to restrictions on resale. Securities freely saleable among qualified institutional investors under special rules adopted by the SEC may be treated as liquid if they satisfy liquidity standards established by the Board. The continued liquidity of such securities is not as well assured as that of publicly traded securities, and accordingly the Board will monitor their liquidity. For the restricted securities the Fund held as of December 31, 2013, refer to the Schedule of Investments.

Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date with realized gain or loss on investments determined by using the identified cost method. Interest income (including amortization of premium and accretion of discount) is recorded on the accrual basis. Premiums and discounts on debt securities are amortized using the effective yield to maturity method. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities that are recorded as soon after the ex-dividend date as the Fund becomes aware of such dividends.

Determination of Net Asset Value and Calculation of Expenses. Certain administrative expenses are common to, and allocated among, various affiliated funds. Such allocations are made on the basis of each fund’s average net assets or other criteria directly affecting the expenses as determined by the Adviser pursuant to procedures established by the Board.

In calculating the NAV per share of each class, investment income, realized and unrealized gains and losses, redemption fees, and expenses other than class specific expenses are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the proportion of net assets of each class at the beginning of each day. Distribution expenses are borne solely by the class incurring the expense.

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

Custodian Fee Credits. When cash balances are maintained in the custody account, the Fund receives credits which are used to offset custodian fees. The gross expenses paid under the custody arrangement are included in custodian fees in the Statement of Operations with the corresponding expense offset, if any, shown as “Custodian fee credits.”

Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions to shareholders are based on income and capital gains as determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from income and capital gains as determined under GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities and foreign currency transactions held by the Fund and timing differences. Distributions from net investment income for federal income tax purposes include net realized gains on foreign currency transactions. These book/tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent; adjustments are made to the appropriate capital accounts in the period when the differences arise. Permanent differences are primarily due to the tax treatment of currency gains and losses and recharacterization of distributions. These reclassifications have no impact on the NAV of the Fund. For the year ended December 31, 2013, reclassifications were made to increase accumulated net investment loss by $21,232 and decrease accumulated net realized loss on investments and foreign currency transactions by $21,232.

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was as follows:


	Year Ended December 31, 2013		Year Ended December 31, 2012
Distributions paid from:
Ordinary income		$78,863		$89,977
Return of capital		5,138		—

Total		$84,001		$89,977

Provision for Income Taxes. The Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). It is the policy of the Fund to comply with the requirements of the Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its net investment company taxable income and net capital gains. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is required.

As of December 31, 2013, the components of accumulated earnings/losses on a tax basis were as follows:


Accumulated capital loss carryforwards	$	(1,701,641	)
Net unrealized appreciation on investments and foreign currency translations		2,259,727
Other Temporary Differences*		13,205

Total	$	571,291

*	Other temporary differences are primarily due to adjustments on forward foreign exchange contracts.

At December 31, 2013, the Fund had net capital loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes which are available to reduce future required distributions of net capital gains to shareholders. Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, the Fund is permitted to carry forward for an unlimited period capital losses incurred in years beginning after December 22, 2010. In addition, these losses must be utilized prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactment taxable years. As a result of the rule, pre-enactment capital loss carryforwards may have an increased likelihood of expiring unused. Additionally, post enactment capital losses that are carried

The Gabelli Global Rising Income and Dividend Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

forward will retain their character as either short term or long term capital losses rather than being considered all short term as under previous law.


Capital Loss Carryforward Available through 2016	$	1,178,191
Capital Loss Carryforward Available through 2017		379,911
Long term Capital Loss Carryforward Post-Effective With No Expiration		143,539

Total Capital Loss Carryforwards	$	1,701,641

On December 31, 2012, there was a large redemption by an unaffiliated shareholder. The reduction in assets caused a change in control of ownership of the Fund. This change in the control of ownership will limit the Fund’s ability to utilize capital loss carryforwards in future years.

At December 31, 2013, the differences between book basis and tax basis unrealized appreciation were primarily due to mark-to-market adjustments on investments in passive foreign investment companies and adjustments on income from an investment in a defaulted security.

The following summarizes the tax cost of investments and the related net unrealized appreciation at December 31, 2013:


	Cost		Gross Unrealized Appreciation		Gross Unrealized Depreciation		Net Unrealized Appreciation
Investments		$18,350,506		$2,803,756		$(530,801)		$2,272,955

The Fund is required to evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Income tax and related interest and penalties would be recognized by the Fund as tax expense in the Statement of Operations if the tax positions were deemed not to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties. As of December 31, 2013, the Adviser has reviewed all open tax years and concluded that there was no impact to the Fund’s net assets or results of operations. Tax years ended December 31, 2010 through December 31, 2013, remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities. On an ongoing basis, the Adviser will monitor the Fund’s tax positions to determine if adjustments to this conclusion are necessary.

The Gabelli Global Rising Income and Dividend Fund

effect to the repayment, such adjusted annualized total operating expenses of the Fund would not exceed 2.00%, 2.00%, 2.75%, and 1.75% of the value of the Fund’s average daily net assets for Class AAA, Class A, Class C, and Class I, respectively. The agreement is renewable annually. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the cumulative amount which the Fund may repay the Adviser is $119,281.


For the year ended December 31, 2012, expiring December 31, 2014	$	73,390
For the year ended December 31, 2013, expiring December 31, 2015		45,891

	$	119,281

The Corporation pays each Director who is not considered to be an affiliated person an annual retainer of $6,000 plus $1,000 for each Board meeting attended, and they are reimbursed for any out of pocket expenses incurred in attending meetings. All Board committee members receive $1,000 per meeting attended. The Chairman of the Audit Committee receives an annual fee of $3,000, and the Lead Director receives an annual fee of $2,000. A Director may receive a single meeting fee, allocated among the participating funds, for attending certain meetings held on behalf of multiple funds. Directors who are directors or employees of the Adviser or an affiliated company receive no compensation or expense reimbursement from the Corporation.

4. Distribution Plan. The Fund’s Board has adopted a distribution plan (the “Plan”) for each class of shares, except for Class I Shares, pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Under the Class AAA, Class A, and Class C Share Plans, payments are authorized to G.distributors, LLC (the “Distributor”), an affiliate of the Fund, at annual rates of 0.25%, 0.25%, and 1.00%, respectively, of the average daily net assets of those classes, the annual limitations under each Plan. Such payments are accrued daily and paid monthly.

5. Portfolio Securities. Purchases and sales of securities during the year ended December 31, 2013, other than short term securities and U.S. Government obligations, aggregated $19,751,207 and $9,715,258, respectively.

6. Transactions with Affiliates. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Fund paid brokerage commissions on security trades of $6,002 to G.research, Inc. (formerly “Gabelli & Company, Inc.”), an affiliate of the Adviser. Additionally the Distributor retained a total of $243 from investors representing commissions (sales charges and underwriting fees) on sales and redemptions of Fund shares.

The cost of calculating the Fund’s NAV per share is a Fund expense pursuant to the Advisory Agreement. The Adviser did not seek a reimbursement during the year ended December 31, 2013.

7. Line of Credit. The Fund participates in an unsecured line of credit of up to $75,000,000 under which it may borrow up to 10% of its net assets from the custodian for temporary borrowing purposes. Borrowings under this arrangement bear interest at the higher of the sum of the overnight LIBOR rate plus 100 basis points or the sum of the federal funds rate plus 100 basis points at the time of borrowing. This amount, if any, would be included in “interest expense” in the Statement of Operations. At December 31, 2013, there were no borrowings under the line of credit.

The average daily amount of borrowings under the line of credit during the year ended was $41,497 with a weighted average interest rate of 1.13%. The maximum amount borrowed was at any time during the year ended December 31, 2013 was $785,000.

8. Capital Stock. The Fund offers four classes of shares – Class AAA Shares, Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class I Shares. Class AAA Shares are offered without a front-end sales charge only to investors who acquire them directly from the Distributor, through selected broker/dealers, or the transfer agent. Class I Shares are offered without a sales charge, solely to certain institutions, directly through the Distributor or brokers that have entered into selling agreements specifically with respect to Class I Shares. Class A Shares are subject to a maximum front-end sales charge of 5.75%. Class C Shares are subject to a 1.00% contingent deferred sales charge for one year after purchase.

The Fund imposes a redemption fee of 2.00% on all classes of shares that are redeemed or exchanged on or before the seventh day after the date of a purchase. The redemption fee is deducted from the proceeds otherwise payable to the redeeming shareholders and is retained by the Fund as an increase in paid-in capital. The redemption fees retained by the Fund during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, amounted to $10 and $214, respectively.

The Fund effected a 1 for 5 reverse stock split on August 9, 2013, as approved by the Board of Directors. The net asset value of each share class increased proportionately at that time.

Transactions in shares of capital stock were as follows:


	Year Ended December 31, 2013						Year Ended December 31, 2012
	Shares			Amount			Shares			Amount

9. Significant Shareholder. As of December 31, 2013, approximately 36.3% of the Fund was beneficially owned by the Adviser and its affiliates.

The Gabelli Global Rising Income and Dividend Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

10. Indemnifications. The Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. However, the Fund has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts. Management has reviewed the Fund’s existing contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.

11. Other Matters. On April 24, 2008, the Adviser entered into a settlement with the SEC to resolve an inquiry regarding prior frequent trading in shares of the GAMCO Global Growth Fund (the “Global Growth Fund”) by one investor who was banned from the Global Growth Fund in August 2002. Under the terms of the settlement, the Adviser, without admitting or denying the SEC’s findings and allegations, paid $16 million (which included a $5 million civil monetary penalty). On the same day, the SEC filed a civil action in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of the Adviser, alleging violations of certain federal securities laws arising from the same matter. The officer, who also is an officer of the Global Growth Fund and other funds in the Gabelli/GAMCO complex, including this Fund, denies the allegations and is continuing in his positions with the Adviser and the funds. The settlement by the Adviser did not have, and the resolution of the action against the officer is not expected to have, a material adverse impact on the Adviser or its ability to fulfill its obligations under the Advisory Agreement.

12. Subsequent Events. Management has evaluated the impact on the Fund of all other subsequent events occurring through the date the financial statements were issued and has determined that there were no additional subsequent events requiring recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.

The Gabelli Global Rising Income and Dividend Fund

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors of GAMCO Global Series Funds, Inc. and the

Shareholders of The Gabelli Global Rising Income and Dividend Fund

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of The Gabelli Global Rising Income and Dividend Fund (the “Fund”), one of the series constituting GAMCO Global Series Funds, Inc., as of December 31, 2013, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2013, by correspondence with the Fund’s custodian and brokers, or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund at December 31, 2013, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and its financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The Gabelli Global Rising Income and Dividend Fund

Board Consideration and Re-Approval of Investment Advisory Agreements (Unaudited)

During the six months ended December 31, 2013, the Board of Directors of the Corporation approved the continuation of the investment advisory agreement with the Adviser for the Fund on the basis of the recommendation by the directors (the “Independent Board Members”) who are not “interested persons” of the Fund. The following paragraphs summarize the material information and factors considered by the Independent Board Members as well as their conclusions relative to such factors.

1. Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services. The Independent Board Members considered information regarding the portfolio manager, the depth of the analyst pool available to the Adviser and the Fund’s portfolio manager, the scope of supervisory, administrative, shareholder, and other services supervised or provided by the Adviser and the absence of significant service problems reported to the Board. The Independent Board Members noted the experience, length of service, and reputation of the Fund’s portfolio manager.

2. Investment Performance. The Independent Board Members reviewed the short and medium term performance of the Fund against a peer group of convertible securities funds. The Independent Board Members noted that the Fund had substantially changed its investment strategy early in the year and that consequently, comparisons with convertible securities funds would no longer be relevant for periods since the transition to the new strategy focusing on common equity securities expected to increase dividends over time. The Independent Board Members noted that the Fund’s performance for the short period since the change has improved and also noted that, in relation to the historical peer group, the Fund’s performance for the one, three, and five year periods was poor. The Independent Board Members also acknowledged the limitations of the peer group selected because there was only one other dedicated global convertible fund in the peer group.

3. Profitability. The Independent Board Members reviewed summary data regarding the lack of profitability of the Fund to the Adviser both with an administrative overhead charge and without such a charge. The Independent Board Members also noted that a portion of the Fund’s portfolio transactions were executed by an affiliated broker of the Adviser and that another affiliated broker received distribution fees and minor amounts of sales commissions.

4. Economies of Scale. The Independent Board Members discussed the major elements of the Adviser’s cost structure and the relationship of those elements to potential economies of scale and reviewed rudimentary data relating to the impact of 20% growth in the Fund on the Adviser’s profitability.

5. Sharing of Economies of Scale. The Independent Board Members noted that the investment management fee schedule for the Fund does not take into account any potential economies of scale that may develop.

6. Service and Cost Comparisons. The Independent Board Members compared the expense ratios of the investment management fee, other expenses, and total expenses of the Fund with similar expense ratios of the peer group of convertible securities funds and noted that the Adviser’s management fee includes substantially all administrative services of the Fund as well as investment advisory services. The Independent Board Members noted that the Fund’s expense ratios, after voluntary expense reimbursements, were significantly higher than and the Fund’s size was significantly lower than average within this group. The Independent Board Members also noted that all but one of the peer group were domestic convertible funds, thereby limiting the usefulness of peer group comparisons. The Independent Board Members were presented with, but did not consider material to their decision, various information comparing the advisory fee with the fee for other types of accounts managed by the Adviser.

Board Consideration and Re-Approval of Investment Advisory Agreements (Unaudited) (Continued)

Conclusions. The Independent Board Members concluded that the Fund enjoyed highly experienced portfolio management services, good ancillary services but had a relatively poor performance record and had substantially changed its investment focus in 2013. The Independent Board Members also concluded that the Fund’s expense ratios were reasonable, particularly in light of the lack of profitability to the Adviser of managing the Fund, and that economies of scale were not a significant factor in their thinking at this time. The Independent Board Members did not view the potential profitability of ancillary services as material to their decision. On the basis of the foregoing and without assigning particular weight to any single conclusion, the Independent Board Members determined to recommend continuation of the investment management agreement to the full Board of Directors.

2013 TAX NOTICE TO SHAREHOLDERS (Unaudited)

For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Fund paid to shareholders ordinary income distributions (comprised of net investment income) totaling $0.080, $0.078, $0.095, and $0.121 per share for Class AAA, Class A, Class C, and Class I Shares, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2013, 100% of the ordinary income distribution qualifies for the dividends received deduction available to corporations. The Fund designates 100% of the ordinary income distribution as qualified dividend income pursuant to the Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2003. The Fund designates 30.55% of the ordinary income distribution as qualified interest income pursuant to the Tax Relief, Unemployment Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010.

U.S. Government Income:

The percentage of the ordinary income distribution paid by the Fund during the year ended December 31, 2013 which was derived from U.S. Treasury securities was 0.22%. Such income is exempt from state and local tax in all states. However, many states, including New York and California, allow a tax exemption for a portion of the income earned only if a mutual fund has invested at least 50% of its assets at the end of each quarter of the Fund’s fiscal year in U.S. Government securities. The Fund did not meet this strict requirement in 2013. The percentage of U.S. Government securities held as of December 31, 2013 was 10.06%. Due to the diversity in state and local tax law, it is recommended that you consult your personal tax adviser as to the applicability of the information provided to your specific situation.

All designations are based on financial information available as of the date of this annual report and, accordingly, are subject to change. For each item, it is the intention of the Fund to designate the maximum amount permitted under the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations thereunder.

We have separated the portfolio manager’s commentary from the financial statements and investment portfolio due to corporate governance regulations stipulated by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. We have done this to ensure that the content of the portfolio manager’s commentary is unrestricted. Both the commentary and the financial statements, including the portfolio of investments, will be available on our website at www.gabelli.com

The GAMCO Global Growth Fund

Annual Report — December 31, 2013

LOGO

Morningstar^® rated The GAMCO Global Growth Fund Class AAA Shares 4 stars overall and 4 stars for the three, five, and ten year periods ended December 31, 2013, among 797, 797, 638, and 324 World Stock funds, respectively. Morningstar Rating^TM is based on risk-adjusted returns.

To Our Shareholders,

For the year ended December 31, 2013, the net asset value (“NAV”) per Class AAA Share of The GAMCO Global Growth Fund increased 28.8% compared with an increase of 22.8% for the Morgan Stanley Capital International (“MSCI”) All Country (“AC”) World Free Index. See page 3 for additional performance information.

Enclosed are the schedule of investments and financial statements as of December 31, 2013.

Performance Discussion (Unaudited)

For the year, all 23 major national indices provided positive returns. Countries posting strong double-digit returns for 2013 were led by Finland (+46.0%), followed by Ireland (+41.2%), the United States (+31.8%), Germany (+31.4%), Spain and the Netherlands (+31.3%), Belgium (+27.6%), Japan (+27.2%), Switzerland (+26.6%), France (+26.3%), Denmark (+25.2%), Sweden (+24.5%), the United Kingdom (+20.7%), Italy (+20.4%), Austria (+13.4%), New Zealand (+11.3%), Hong Kong (+11.1%), Portugal (+11.0%) and Israel (+10.9%). Countries posting positive single-digit returns for 2013 were Norway (+9.4%), Canada (+5.6%), Australia (+4.2%) and Singapore (+1.7%). Within emerging markets, only 6 of 21 countries posted positive results. Of the four largest emerging markets, China (+0.4%) posted the best return, followed by Russia (-2.6%), India (-5.3%) and Brazil (-18.7%).

Combining low interest rates and depressed stock prices with a gradually improving economy has generated robust stock market gains over the past five years. The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index (“S&P 500”) has climbed about 170% from its March 2009 low. That is a compound annual return of about 22% before dividends are counted. About 40% of the S&P 500 profits are generated overseas.

Selected holdings that contributed positively to performance in 2013 were Pioneer Natural Resources (1.9% of net assets as December 31, 2013), a large independent oil and gas company in the U.S.; Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken (2.3%), a leading Nordic financial services group; and Morgan Stanley (1.9%), a leading global financial services firm. Some of our weaker performing holdings during the year were Standard Charter (no longer held in the portfolio), Jardine Matheson Holdings (0.8%), a diversified business group focused principally on Asia; and Heineken and Kirin Holdings, securities (no longer held in the portfolio).

We appreciate your confidence and trust.

Sincerely yours,

(a)		Returns represent past performance and do not guarantee future results. Total returns and average annual returns reflect changes in share price, reinvestment of distributions, and are net of expenses. Investment returns and the principal value of an investment will fluctuate. When shares are redeemed, they may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data presented. Visit www.gabelli.com for performance information as of the most recent month end. The Fund imposes a 2% redemption fee on shares sold or exchanged within seven days after the date of purchase. Investors should carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses of the Fund before investing. The prospectuses contain information about these and other matters and should be read carefully before investing. To obtain a prospectus please visit our website at www.gabelli.com. Investing in foreign securities involves risks not ordinarily associated with investments in domestic issues, including currency fluctuation, economic, and political risks. The Class AAA Share NAVs are used to calculate performance for the periods prior to the issuance of Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class I Shares on March 2, 2000, March 12, 2000, and January 11, 2008, respectively. The actual performance of the Class A and Class C Shares would have been lower due to the additional fees and expenses associated with these classes of shares. The actual performance of Class I Shares would have been higher due to lower expenses related to this class of shares. The MSCI AC World Free Index is an unmanaged free float adjusted market capitalization weighted index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed and emerging markets. The MSCI AC World Free Index consists of 45 country indices comprising 24 developed and 21 emerging market country indices. The Lipper Global Large-Cap Growth Fund Classification reflects the performance of mutual funds classified in this particular category. Dividends are considered reinvested. You cannot invest directly in an index.

Proxy Voting

Morningstar Rating™ is based on risk-adjusted returns. The Overall Morningstar Rating is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with a fund’s three, five, and ten year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. For funds with at least a three year history, a Morningstar Rating is based on a risk-adjusted return measure (including the effects of sales charges, loads, and redemption fees) placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. For each fund with at least a three year history, Morningstar calculates a Morningstar Rating based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure (including the effects of sales charges, loads, and redemption fees) that accounts for variation in a fund’s monthly performance, placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of funds in each category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% 4 stars, the next 35% 3 stars, the next 22.5% 2 stars, and the bottom 10% 1 star. (Each share class is counted as a fraction of one fund within this scale and rated separately, which may cause slight variations in the distribution percentages.) Morningstar Rating is for the AAA Share class only; other classes may have different performance characteristics. Ratings reflect relative performance. Results for certain periods were negative. © 2013 Morningstar, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

The GAMCO Global Growth Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

1. Organization. The GAMCO Global Growth Fund, a series of GAMCO Global Series Funds, Inc. (the “Corporation”), was incorporated on July 16, 1993 in Maryland. The Fund is a non-diversified open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), and one of four separately managed portfolios (collectively, the “Portfolios”) of the Corporation. The Fund’s primary objective is capital appreciation. The Fund commenced investment operations on February 7, 1994.

Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-11 (as clarified by ASU No. 2013-01) “Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” requires a fund to disclose both gross information and net information about both instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the statement of assets and liabilities and instruments and transactions

The GAMCO Global Growth Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement. The scope of ASU 2011-11 includes derivatives and sale and repurchase agreements. The purpose of ASU 2011-11 is to facilitate comparison of financial statements prepared on the basis of GAAP and on the basis of International Financial Reporting Standards. Management is continually evaluating the implications of ASU 2011-11 and its impact on the financial statements and, at this time, has concluded that ASU 2011-11 is not applicable to the Fund because the Fund does not have investments covered under this guidance.

The Fund employs a fair value model to adjust prices to reflect events affecting the values of certain portfolio securities which occur between the close of trading on the principal market for such securities (foreign exchanges and over-the-counter markets) at the time when net asset values of the Fund are determined. If the Fund’s valuation committee believes that a particular event would materially affect net asset value, further adjustment is considered.

The inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value of the Fund’s investments are summarized into three levels as described in the hierarchy 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.); and

—

Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Board’s determinations as to the fair value of investments).


	Valuation Inputs
	Level 1 Quoted Prices		Level 2 Other Significant Observable Inputs		Total Market Value at 12/31/13
INVESTMENTS IN SECURITIES:
ASSETS (Market Value):
Common Stocks(a)		$79,462,147		—		$79,462,147
U.S. Government Obligations		—		$429,903		429,903

TOTAL INVESTMENTS IN SECURITIES – ASSETS		$79,462,147		$429,903		$79,892,050

(a)	Please refer to the Schedule of Investments for the industry classifications of these portfolio holdings.

During the year ended December 31, 2013, foreign common stock was transferred from Level 2 to Level 1 due to the application at December 31, 2012 of fair value procedures resulting from volatility in U.S. markets after the close of the foreign markets. The beginning of period value of the securities that transferred from Level 2 to Level 1 during the period amounted to $18,344,864 or 28% of net assets as of December 31, 2012. The Fund’s policy is to recognize transfers among Levels as of the beginning of the reporting period.

There were no Level 3 investments held at December 31, 2013 or December 31, 2012.

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

Additional Information to Evaluate Qualitative Information.

Fair Valuation. Fair valued securities may be common and preferred equities, warrants, options, rights, and fixed income obligations. Where appropriate, Level 3 securities are those for which market quotations are not available, such as securities not traded for several days, or for which current bids are not available, or which are restricted as to transfer. Among the factors to be considered to fair value a security are recent prices of comparable securities that are publicly traded, reliable prices of securities not publicly traded, the use of valuation models, current analyst reports, valuing the income or cash flow of the issuer, or cost if the preceding factors do not apply. The circumstances of Level 3 securities are frequently monitored to determine if fair valuation measures continue to apply.

Foreign Currency Translations. The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currencies, investments, and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income, and expenses are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. Unrealized gains and losses that result from changes in foreign exchange rates and/or changes in market prices of securities have been included in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on investments and foreign currency translations. Net realized foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include foreign currency gains and losses between trade date and settlement date on investment securities transactions, foreign currency transactions, and the difference between the amounts of interest and dividends recorded on the books of the Fund and the amounts actually received. The portion of foreign currency gains and losses related to fluctuation in exchange rates between the initial purchase trade date and subsequent sale trade date is included in realized gain/(loss) on investments.

The GAMCO Global Growth Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

In calculating NAV per share of each class, investment income, realized and unrealized gains and losses, redemption fees, and expenses other than class specific expenses are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the proportion of net assets of each class at the beginning of each day. Distribution expenses are borne solely by the class incurring the expense.

Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions to shareholders are based on income and capital gains as determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from income and capital gains as determined under GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities and foreign currency transactions held by the Fund, timing differences, and differing characterizations of distributions made by the Fund. Distributions from net investment income for federal income tax purposes include net realized gains on foreign currency transactions. These book/tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent, adjustments are made to the appropriate capital accounts in the period when the differences arise. Permanent differences are primarily due to recharacterization of distributions. These reclassifications have no impact on the NAV of the Fund. For the year ended December 31, 2013, reclassifications were made to increase accumulated net investment loss by $19,639 and decrease accumulated net realized gain on investments and foreign currency transactions by $19,639.

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was as follows:


	Year Ended December 31, 2013		Year Ended December 31, 2012
Distributions paid from:
Ordinary income (inclusive of short term capital gains)		$ 803,626		$ 367,685

Total distributions paid		$6,890,818		$2,314,367

The GAMCO Global Growth Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

As of December 31, 2013, the components of earnings/losses on a tax basis were as follows:


Undistributed ordinary income	$	38,906
Net unrealized appreciation on investments and foreign currency translations		27,510,206

Total	$	27,549,112

Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, the Fund is permitted to carry forward for an unlimited period capital losses incurred. Post enactment capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short term or long term capital losses rather than being considered all short term as under previous law.

At December 31, 2013, the differences between book basis and tax basis unrealized appreciation on investments were primarily due to deferral of losses from wash sales for tax purposes.

The following summarizes the tax cost of investments and the related net unrealized appreciation at December 31, 2013:


	Cost		Gross Unrealized Appreciation		Gross Unrealized Depreciation		Net Unrealized Appreciation
Investments	$	52,383,726	$	27,650,200		$(141,876)	$	27,508,324

The Fund is required to evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Income tax and related interest and penalties would be recognized by the Fund as tax expense in the Statement of Operations if the tax positions were deemed not to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Fund did not incur any income tax, interest, or penalties. As of December 31, 2013, the Adviser has reviewed all open tax years and concluded that there was no impact to the Fund’s net assets or results of operations. Tax years ended December 31, 2010 through December 31, 2013 remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities. On an ongoing basis, the Adviser will monitor the Fund’s tax positions to determine if adjustments to this conclusion are necessary.

3. Investment Advisory Agreement and Other Transactions. The Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) with the Adviser which provides that the Fund will pay the Adviser a fee, computed daily and paid monthly, at the annual rate of 1.00% of the value of its average daily net assets. In accordance with the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser provides a continuous investment program for the Fund’s portfolio, oversees the administration of all aspects of the Fund’s business and affairs, and pays the compensation of all Officers and Directors of the Fund who are affiliated persons of the Adviser. The Corporation pays each Director who is not considered to be an affiliated person an annual retainer of $6,000 plus $1,000 for each Board meeting attended and they are reimbursed for any out of pocket expenses incurred in attending meetings. All Board committee members receive $1,000 per meeting attended. The Chairman of the Audit Committee receives an annual fee of $3,000, and the Lead Director receives an annual fee of $2,000. A Director may receive a single meeting fee, allocated among the participating funds, for attending

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

certain meetings held on behalf of multiple funds. Directors who are directors or employees of the Adviser or an affiliated company receive no compensation or expense reimbursement from the Corporation.

6. Transactions with Affiliates. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Fund paid brokerage commissions on security trades of $1,257 to G.research, Inc, an affiliate of the Adviser. Additionally the Distributor retained a total of $1,766 from investors representing commissions (sales charges and underwriting fees) on sales and redemptions of Fund shares.

The cost of calculating the Fund’s NAV per share is a Fund expense pursuant to the Advisory Agreement. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Fund paid or accrued $45,000 to the Adviser in connection with the cost of computing the Fund’s NAV.

The average daily amount of borrowings outstanding under the line of credit during the year ended December 31, 2013 was $15,844 with a weighted average interest rate of 1.14%. The maximum amount borrowed at any time during the year ended December 31, 2013 was $793,000.

8. Capital Stock. The Fund offers four classes of shares – Class AAA Shares, Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class I Shares. Class AAA Shares are offered without a sales charge only to investors who acquire them directly from the Distributor, through selected broker/dealers, or the transfer agent. Class I Shares are offered without a sales charge, solely to certain institutions, directly through the Distributor or brokers that have entered into selling agreements specifically with respect to Class I Shares. Class A Shares are subject to a maximum front-end sales charge of 5.75%. Class C Shares are subject to a 1.00% contingent deferred sales charge for one year after purchase.

9. Indemnifications. The Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. However, the Fund has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts. Management has reviewed the Fund’s existing contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.

10. Other Matters. On April 24, 2008, the Adviser entered into a settlement with the SEC to resolve an inquiry regarding prior frequent trading in shares of the Fund by one investor who was banned from the Fund in August 2002. Under the terms of the settlement, the Adviser, without admitting or denying the SEC’s findings and allegations, paid $16 million (which included a $5 million civil monetary penalty). On the same day, the SEC filed a civil action in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of the Adviser, alleging violations of certain federal securities laws arising from the same matter. The officer, who is also an officer of the Fund and other funds in the Gabelli/GAMCO complex, denies the allegations and is continuing in his positions with the Adviser and the funds. The settlement by the Adviser did not have, and the resolution of the action against the officer is not expected to have, a material adverse impact on the Adviser or its ability to fulfill its obligations under the Advisory Agreement.

11. Subsequent Events. Management has evaluated the impact on the Fund of all subsequent events occurring through the date the financial statements were issued and has determined that there were no subsequent events requiring recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.

The GAMCO Global Growth Fund

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors of GAMCO Global Series Funds, Inc. and the

Shareholders of The GAMCO Global Growth Fund

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of The GAMCO Global Growth Fund (the “Fund”), one of the series constituting GAMCO Global Series Funds, Inc., as of December 31, 2013, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2013, by correspondence with the Fund’s custodian. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The GAMCO Global Growth Fund

Board Consideration and Re-Approval of Investment Advisory Agreements (Unaudited)

Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services. The Independent Board Members considered information regarding the Fund’s portfolio managers, the depth of the analyst pool available to the Adviser and the portfolio managers, the scope of supervisory, administrative, shareholder, and other services supervised or provided by the Adviser and the absence of significant service problems reported to the Board. The Independent Board Members noted the experience, length of service, and reputation of the Fund’s portfolio managers.

Investment Performance. The Independent Board Members reviewed the short, medium, and long term performance of the Fund against a peer group of global large cap growth funds, noting its top quartile performance for the one, three, and five year periods.

Profitability. The Independent Board Members reviewed summary data regarding the profitability of the Fund to the Adviser both with a pro rata administrative overhead charge and with a standalone administrative charge. The Independent Board Members also noted that a portion of the Fund’s portfolio transactions were executed by an affiliated broker of the Adviser and that another affiliated broker received distribution fees and minor amounts of sales commissions.

Economies of Scale. The Independent Board Members discussed the major elements of the Adviser’s cost structure and the relationship of those elements to potential economies of scale and reviewed rudimentary data relating to the impact of 20% growth in the Fund on the Adviser’s profitability.

Sharing of Economies of Scale. The Independent Board Members noted that the investment management fee schedule for the Fund does not take into account any potential economies of scale that may develop.

Service and Cost Comparisons. The Independent Board Members compared the expense ratios of the investment management fee, other expenses, and total expenses of the Fund with similar expense ratios of the peer group of global multi-cap core funds and noted that the Adviser’s management fee includes substantially all administrative services of the Fund as well as investment advisory services. The Independent Board Members noted that the Fund’s expense ratios were significantly higher than and the Fund’s size was lower than average within this group. The Independent Board Members were presented with, but did not consider material to their decision, various information comparing the advisory fee with the fee for other types of accounts managed by the Adviser.

Conclusions. The Independent Board Members concluded that the Fund enjoyed highly experienced portfolio management services and good ancillary services and a reasonable performance record. The Independent Board Members also concluded that the Fund’s expense ratios and the profitability to the Adviser of managing the Fund were reasonable, and that economies of scale were not a significant factor in their thinking at this time. The Independent Board Members did not view the potential profitability of ancillary services as material to their decision. On the basis of the foregoing and without assigning particular weight to any single conclusion, the Independent Board Members determined to recommend continuation of the investment management agreement to the full Board of Directors.

The GAMCO Global Opportunity Fund Annual Report — December 31, 2013

		Caesar M. P. Bryan
		Portfolio Manager

To Our Shareholders,

For the year ended December 31, 2013, the net asset value (“NAV”) per Class AAA Share of The GAMCO Global Opportunity Fund increased 18.9% compared with an increase of 22.8% for the Morgan Stanley Capital International (“MSCI”) All Country (“AC”) World Free Index. See page 2 for additional performance information.

Enclosed are the schedule of investments and financial statements as of December 31, 2013.

Performance Discussion (Unaudited)

We purchase attractively valued companies that we believe have the opportunity to grow earnings more rapidly than average within that company’s local market. We pay close attention to company’s position, management, and balance sheet, with particular emphasis on the ability of the company to finance its growth. Generally, we value a company relative to its local market, but where appropriate, we attempt to benefit from valuation discrepancies between markets. Our primary focus is on security selection and not country allocation, but the Fund will remain diversified by sector and geography. Country allocation is likely to reflect broad economic, financial, and currency trends, as well as relative size of the market.

Selected securities that contributed positively to performance in 2013 were, Kinnevik Investment AB (3.9% of net assets as December 31, 2013), an investment company headquartered in Stockholm Sweden, which manages a portfolio of listed holdings, primarily in the telecommunications and media sectors; Lockheed Martin Corp. (3.1%), a security and aerospace company; Google Inc. (5.6%), widely recognized as world’s largest internet search engine. Some of our weaker performing securities during the year were Newcrest Mining Ltd.(0.1%) the largest Australian domiciled gold producers; Antofagasta plc (2.5%), which through its subsidiaries engages in the exploration, development and mining of cooper; and Swire Properties Ltd. (0.7%), a property developer in Hong Kong and mainland China.

We appreciate your confidence and trust.

Sincerely yours,

Returns represent past performance and do not guarantee future results. Total returns and average annual returns reflect changes in share price, reinvestment of distributions, and are net of expenses. Investment returns and the principal value of an investment will fluctuate. When shares are redeemed, they may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data presented. Visit www.gabelli.com for performance information as of the most recent month end. Returns would have been lower had Gabelli Funds, LLC (the “Adviser”) not reimbursed certain expenses of the Fund.

The GAMCO Global Opportunity Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

1. Organization. The GAMCO Global Opportunity Fund, a series of GAMCO Global Series Funds, Inc. (the “Corporation”), was incorporated on July 16, 1993 in Maryland. The Fund is a non-diversified open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), and one of four separately managed portfolios (collectively, the “Portfolios”) of the Corporation. The Fund’s primary objective is capital appreciation. The Fund commenced investment operations on May 11, 1998.

The inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value of the Fund’s investments are summarized into three levels as described in the hierarchy 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.); and

—

Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Board’s determinations as to the fair value of investments).

TOTAL INVESTMENTS IN SECURITIES – ASSETS		$11,897,924		$119,070		$12,016,994

(a)	Please refer to the Schedule of Investments (“SOI”) for the industry classifications of these portfolio holdings.

During the year ended December 31, 2013, foreign common stock was transferred from Level 2 to Level 1 due to the application, at December 31, 2012, of fair value procedures resulting from volatility in U.S. markets after the close of the foreign markets. The beginning of period value of the securities that transferred from Level 2 to Level 1 during the period amounted to $4,834,158 or 46% of net assets as of December 31, 2012. The Fund’s policy is to recognize transfers among Levels as of the beginning of the reporting period.

There were no Level 3 investments held at December 31, 2013 or 2012.

Additional Information to Evaluate Qualitative Information.

Fair Valuation. Fair valued securities may be common and preferred equities, warrants, options, rights, and fixed income obligations. Where appropriate, Level 3 securities are those for which market quotations are not available, such as securities not traded for several days, or for which current bids are not available, or which are restricted as to transfer. Among the factors to be considered to fair value a security are recent prices of comparable securities that are publicly traded, reliable prices of securities not publicly traded, the use of valuation models, current analyst reports, valuing the income or cash flow of the issuer, or cost if the preceding factors do not apply. The circumstances of Level 3 securities are frequently monitored to determine if fair valuation measures continue to apply.

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions to shareholders are based on income and capital gains as determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from income and capital gains as determined under GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities and foreign currency transactions held by the Fund, timing differences, and differing characterizations of distributions made by the Fund. Distributions from net investment income for federal income tax purposes include net realized gains on foreign currency transactions. These book/tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent, adjustments are made to the appropriate capital accounts in the period when the differences arise. Permanent differences are primarily due to the tax treatment of currency gains and losses and recharacterization of distribution. These reclassifications have no impact on the NAV of the Fund. For the year ended December 31, 2013, reclassifications were made to decrease distributions in excess of net investment income by $405 and increase accumulated net realized loss on investments and foreign currency transactions by $110, with an offsetting adjustment to paid-in capital.

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were ordinary income of $13,508 and $69,870, respectively.

substantially all of its net investment company taxable income and net capital gains. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is required.

As of December 31, 2013, the components of accumulated earnings/losses on a tax basis were as follows:


Accumulated capital loss carryforwards	$	(999,417)
Net unrealized appreciation on investments and foreign currency translations		5,904,091

Total	$	4,904,674


Capital Loss Carryforward Available through 2016	$	901,411
Capital Loss Carryforward Available through 2017		98,006

Total Capital Loss Carryforwards	$	999,417

During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Fund utilized capital loss carryforwards of $268,637.

At December 31, 2013, the differences between book basis and tax basis unrealized appreciation were primarily due to mark-to-market adjustments on investments in passive foreign investment companies.

The following summarizes the tax cost of investments and the related unrealized appreciation at December 31, 2013:


	Cost	Gross Unrealized Appreciation	Gross Unrealized Depreciation	Net Unrealized Appreciation
Investments	$6,113,459	$6,166,238	$(262,703)	$5,903,535

The Fund is required to evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Income tax and related interest and penalties would be recognized by the Fund as tax expense in the Statement of Operations if the tax positions were deemed not to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Fund did not incur any income tax, interest, or penalties. As of December 31, 2013, the Adviser has reviewed all open tax years and concluded that there was no impact to the Fund’s net assets or results of operations. Tax years ended December 31, 2010 through December 31, 2013 remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities. On an ongoing basis, the Adviser will monitor the Fund’s tax positions to determine if adjustments to this conclusion are necessary.

For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Adviser reimbursed the Fund in the amount of $81,933. In addition, the Fund has agreed, during the two year period following any waiver or reimbursement by the Adviser, to repay such amount to the extent, that after giving the effect to the repayment, such adjusted annualized total operating expenses of the Fund would not exceed 2.00%, 2.00%, 2.75%, and 1.75% of the value of the Fund’s average daily net assets for Class AAA, Class A, Class C, and Class I, respectively. The agreement is renewable annually. At December 31, 2013, the cumulative amount which the Fund may repay the Adviser is $179,952.

All Board committee members receive $1,000 per meeting attended. The Chairman of the Audit Committee receives an annual fee of $3,000 and the Lead Director receives an annual fee of $2,000. A Director may receive a single meeting fee, allocated among the participating funds, for attending certain meetings held on behalf of multiple funds. Directors who are directors or employees of the Adviser or an affiliated company receive no compensation or expense reimbursement from the Corporation.

6. Transactions with Affiliates. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Fund paid brokerage commissions on security trades of $45 to G.research, Inc., an affiliate of the Adviser. Additionally, the Distributor retained a total of $233 from investors representing commissions (sales charges and underwriting fees) on sales and redemptions of Fund shares.

The cost of calculating the Fund’s NAV per share is a Fund expense pursuant to the Advisory Agreement. The Adviser did not seek a reimbursement during the year ended December 31, 2013.

10. Other Matters. On April 24, 2008, the Adviser entered into a settlement with the SEC to resolve an inquiry regarding prior frequent trading in shares of the GAMCO Global Growth Fund (the “Global Growth Fund”) by one investor who was banned from the Global Growth Fund in August 2002. Under the terms of the settlement, the Adviser, without admitting or denying the SEC’s findings and allegations, paid $16 million (which included a $5 million civil monetary penalty). On the same day, the SEC filed a civil action in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of the Adviser, alleging violations of certain federal securities laws arising from the same matter. The officer, who also is an officer of the Global Growth Fund and other funds in the Gabelli/GAMCO complex, including this Fund, denies the allegations and is continuing in his positions with the Adviser and the funds. The settlement by the Adviser did not have, and the resolution of the action against the officer is not expected to have, a material adverse impact on the Adviser or its ability to fulfill its obligations under the Advisory Agreement.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors of GAMCO Global Series Funds, Inc. and the

Shareholders of The GAMCO Global Opportunity Fund

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of The GAMCO Global Opportunity Fund (the “Fund”), one of the series constituting GAMCO Global Series Funds, Inc., as of December 31, 2013, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2013, by correspondence with the Fund’s custodian. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund at December 31, 2013, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and its financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Board Consideration and Re-Approval of Investment Advisory Agreements (Unaudited)

Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services. The Independent Board Members considered information regarding the Fund’s portfolio manager, the depth of the analyst pool available to the Adviser and the portfolio manager, the scope of supervisory, administrative, shareholder, and other services supervised or provided by the Adviser and the absence of significant service problems reported to the Board. The Independent Board Members noted the experience, length of service, and reputation of the Fund’s portfolio manager.

Investment Performance. The Independent Board Members reviewed the short and medium term performance of the Fund against a peer group of global multi-cap growth funds, noting the Fund’s third quartile performance for the one and three year periods and second quartile performance for the five year period.

Profitability. The Independent Board Members reviewed summary data regarding the lack of profitability of the Fund to the Adviser both with and without the expense reimbursement arrangement in effect. The Independent Board Members also noted that a portion of the Fund’s portfolio transactions were executed by an affiliated broker of the Adviser and that another affiliated broker received distribution fees and minor amounts of sales commissions.

Service and Cost Comparisons. The Independent Board Members compared the expense ratios of the investment management fee, other expenses, and total expenses of the Fund with similar expense ratios of the peer group of global multi-cap growth funds and noted that the Adviser’s management fee includes substantially all administrative services of the Fund as well as investment advisory services. The Independent Board Members noted that the Fund’s expense ratios after waivers were moderately higher than and the Fund’s size was significantly lower than average within this group and that the Adviser had been waiving substantial portions of its fees in order to make the Fund a more attractive investment. The Independent Board Members were presented with, but did not consider material to their decision, various information comparing the advisory fee with the fee for other types of accounts managed by the Adviser.

Conclusions. The Independent Board Members concluded that the Fund enjoyed highly experienced portfolio management services, good ancillary services, and an acceptable performance record. The Independent Board Members also concluded that the Fund’s expense ratios were reasonable, particularly in light of the lack of profitability to the Adviser of managing the Fund, and that economies of scale were not a factor in their thinking at this time. The Independent Board Members did not view the potential profitability of ancillary services as material to their decision. On the basis of the foregoing and without assigning particular weight to any single conclusion, the Independent Board Members determined to recommend continuation of the investment management agreement to the full Board of Directors.

2013 TAX NOTICE TO SHAREHOLDERS (Unaudited)

For the year ended December 31, 2013 ordinary income distributions (comprised of net investment income) totaling $0.024, $0.021, and $0.079 per share for Class AAA, Class A, and Class I Shares, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2013, 99.92% of the ordinary income distribution qualifies for the dividends received deduction available to corporations. The Fund designates 100% of the ordinary income distribution as qualified dividend income pursuant to the Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2003. The Fund designates 0.02% of the ordinary income distribution as qualified interest income pursuant to the Tax Relief, Unemployment Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010. Also for the year 2013, the Fund passed through foreign tax credits of $0.017 per share to Class AAA, Class A, Class C, and Class I.

U.S. Government Income:

The percentage of the ordinary income distribution paid by the Fund during the year ended December 31, 2013 which was derived from U.S. Treasury securities was 0.01%. Such income is exempt from state and local tax in all states. However, many states, including New York and California, allow a tax exemption for a portion of the income earned only if a mutual fund has invested at least 50% of its assets at the end of each quarter of the Fund’s fiscal year in U.S. Government securities. The Fund did not meet this strict requirement in 2013. The percentage of U.S. Government securities held as of December 31, 2013 was 0.87%. Due to the diversity in state and local tax law, it is recommended that you consult your personal tax adviser as to the applicability of the information provided to your specific situation.

The GAMCO Global Telecommunications Fund

Annual Report — December 31, 2013

Portfolio Management Team

LOGO

To Our Shareholders,

For the year ended December 31, 2013, the net asset value (“NAV”) per Class AAA Share of The GAMCO Global Telecommunications Fund increased 24.9% compared with an increase of 23.8% for the Morgan Stanley Capital International (“MSCI”) All Country (“AC”) World Telecommunication Services Index. See page 3 for additional performance information.

Enclosed are the schedule of investments and financial statements as of December 31, 2013.

Performance Discussion (Unaudited)

The telecommunications sector increased 4.5% during the first quarter of 2013. Telecom regulation and competition remained in the focus during the period. The annual Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Mobile Wireless Competition Report in March of 2013 provided further indication of the Commission being comfortable with a Big Four status quo (i.e. four “national” carriers in the U.S.: AT&T (2.0% of net assets as of December 31, 2013), Verizon (3.5%), Sprint (0.7%), and T-Mobile (1.0%)).

During the second quarter telecom stocks increased across all regions with the exception of North America versus the broader markets. Nearly $80 billion in telecom and cable deals were announced and completed through the second quarter. Companies from all corners of the globe were seeking to acquire growth and/or augment their service portfolios to be better positioned for convergence offerings. The desire for scale, particularly within markets, also acted as a motive for transactions.

The telecommunications sector performed generally in line with the broad market during the third quarter. The MSCI AC World Index was up 8.2% in the quarter. While the broad markets were ahead across all regions in the period, telecom stocks displayed much greater variation. European telecom stocks led the pace with a gain of 16.8% (21.5% in dollar terms). In contrast, the North American Telecom Index declined by 2.8% in the quarter, against a 6.0% gain for the broader market. Similarly, in Latin America, the Telecom Index declined by 4.7%, while the broad index gained 4.1%. The third quarter provided evidence of selective renewed interest in emerging markets after the sharp selloff in the second quarter. In Asia, except Japan, the MSCI Index gained 7.3%, outperforming the telecom group that was ahead by 3.3%. In Japan, the rally in telecom names continued, albeit at a more measured rate than in the first half of the year. The MSCI Japan Telecom Index gained an additional 8.3% in the period (versus 5.4% for the Japanese market).

Absolute and relative fourth quarter performance in the telecom group once again owed much to Merger & Acquisition (“M&A”) activity or the prospects thereof. The vast majority of 2013 global sector M&A activity – both actual and potential – had been in the wireless arena. This goes a long way towards explaining the 29.1% gain seen in the wireless sub-sector for the year, compared to the 12.7% increase for the diversified telcos. The trend in telecommunications M&A was well established in 2013.

We remain mindful of careful stock selection and position sizing. We are also mindful of evolving regulatory, competitive and technology trends and the impact these can have on performance of industry participants, large and small.

Selected holdings that contributed positively to performance in 2013 were Dish Network Corp (3.7%), which offers direct broadcast satellite subscription television services; Deutsche Telekom AG. (3.1%), which operates as an integrated telecommunication company; and KDDI Corp. (3.0%), which offers various communication services primarily in Japan. Some of our weaker performing stocks during the year were Cincinnati Bell Inc. (2.0%), which provides telecommunication and technology services; Turkcell Iletisim Hizmetleri A/S-ADR. (0.9%), which operates a global system for mobile communications network primarily in Turkey; and China Mobile Ltd ADR. (1.5%), an investment holding company, which provides mobile telecommunications and related services primarily in Mainland China and Hong Kong.

We appreciate your confidence and trust.


		Sincerely yours,

(a) Returns represent past performance and do not guarantee future results. Total returns and average annual returns reflect changes in share price, reinvestment of distributions, and are net of expenses. Investment returns and the principal value of an investment will fluctuate. When shares are redeemed, they may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data presented. Visit www.gabelli.com for performance information as of the most recent month end. The Fund imposes a 2% redemption fee on shares sold or exchanged within seven days after the date of purchase. Investors should carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses of the Fund before investing. The prospectuses contain information about these and other matters and should be read carefully before investing. To obtain a prospectus please visit our website at www.gabelli.com. Investing in foreign securities involves risks not ordinarily associated with investments in domestic issues, including currency fluctuation, economic, and political risks. The Class AAA Share NAVs per share are used to calculate performance for the periods prior to the issuance of Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class I Shares on March 12, 2000, June 2, 2000, and January 11, 2008, respectively. The actual performance for the Class A Shares and Class C Shares would have been lower due to the additional fees and expenses associated with these classes of shares. The actual performance of the Class I Shares would have been higher due to lower expenses related to this class of shares. The MSCI AC World Telecommunication Services Index is an unmanaged index that measures the performance of the global telecommunication securities from around the world. The MSCI AC World Free Index is a free float adjusted market capitalization weighted index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed and emerging markets. The MSCI AC World Free Index consists of 45 country indices comprising 24 developed and 21 emerging market country indices. Dividends are considered reinvested. You cannot invest directly in an index.

(b) Performance results include the effect of the maximum 5.75% sales charge at the beginning of the period.

(c) Assuming payment of the 1% maximum contingent deferred sales charge imposed on redemptions made within one year of purchase.

(d) MSCI AC World Free Index since inception performance is a blend of Gross excluding applicable taxes and Net Performance. This benchmark’s Net performance began on December 29. 2000.

Notes to Financial Statements

1. Organization. The GAMCO Global Telecommunications Fund, a series of GAMCO Global Series Funds, Inc. (the “Corporation”), was incorporated on July 16, 1993 in Maryland. The Fund is a non-diversified open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), and one of four separately managed portfolios (collectively, the “Portfolios”) of the Corporation. The Fund’s primary objective is capital appreciation. The Fund commenced investment operations on November 1, 1993.

and transactions eligible for offset in the statement of assets and liabilities and instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement. The scope of ASU 2011-11 includes derivatives and sale and repurchase agreements. The purpose of ASU 2011-11 is to facilitate comparison of financial statements prepared on the basis of GAAP and on the basis of International Financial Reporting Standards. Management is continually evaluating the implications of ASU 2011-11 and its impact on the financial statements and, at this time, has concluded that ASU 2011-11 is not applicable to the Fund because the Fund does not have investments covered under this guidance.

The inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value of the Fund’s investments are summarized into three levels as described in the hierarchy 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.); and

•

Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Board’s determinations as to the fair value of investments).

There were no significant transfers among Level 1 and Level 2 during the year ended December 31, 2013. The Fund’s policy is to recognize transfers among Levels as of the beginning of the reporting period.

There were no Level 3 transfers during the year ended December 31, 2013.

risks include possible revaluation of currencies, the inability to repatriate funds, less complete financial information about companies, and possible future adverse political and economic developments. Moreover, securities of many foreign issuers and their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. issuers.

Concentration Risks. The Fund may invest a high percentage of its assets in specific sectors of the market in order to achieve a potentially greater investment return. As a result, the Fund may be more susceptible to economic, political, and regulatory developments in a particular sector of the market, positive or negative, and may experience increased volatility to the Fund’s NAV and a magnified effect in its total return.

The GAMCO Global Telecommunications Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions to shareholders are based on income and capital gains as determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from income and capital gains as determined under GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities and foreign currency transactions held by the Fund, timing differences, and differing characterizations of distributions made by the Fund. Distributions from net investment income include net realized gains on foreign currency transactions. These book/tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent, adjustments are made to the appropriate capital accounts in the period when the differences arise. Permanent differences are primarily due to the tax treatment of currency gains and losses. These reclassifications have no impact on the NAV of the Fund. For the year ended December 31, 2013, reclassifications were made to increase accumulated net investment loss by $10,227 and decrease accumulated net realized loss on investments and foreign currency transactions by $10,250, with an offsetting adjustment to paid-in-capital.

The Fund paid ordinary income distributions for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 of $2,058,430 and $2,192,616, respectively.

As of December 31, 2013, the components of accumulated earnings/losses on a tax basis were as follows:


Accumulated capital loss carryforwards	$	(2,004,152	)
Undistributed ordinary income		51,300
Net unrealized appreciation on investments and foreign currency translations		47,000,782

Total	$	45,047,930

At December 31, 2013, the Fund had net capital loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes which are available to reduce future required distributions of net capital gains to shareholder. Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, the Fund is permitted to carry forward for an unlimited period capital losses incurred in years beginning after December 22, 2010. In addition, these losses must be utilized prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactment taxable years. As a result of the rule, pre-enactment capital loss carryforwards may have an increased likelihood of expiring unused. Additionally, post enactment capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short term or long term capital losses rather than being considered all short term as under previous law. The Fund has a capital loss carryforward available through 2017 of $2,004,152.

During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Fund utilized capital loss carryforwards of $1,515,395.

At December 31, 2013, the temporary differences between book basis and tax basis unrealized appreciation were primarily due to deferral of losses from wash sales for tax purposes and mark-to-market adjustments on investments in passive foreign investment companies.

The following summarizes the tax cost of investments and the related net unrealized appreciation at December 31, 2013.


	Cost		Gross Unrealized Appreciation		Gross Unrealized Depreciation			Net Unrealized Appreciation
Investments	$	94,512,060	$	59,572,064	$	(12,572,267	)	$	46,999,797

The Fund is required to evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Income tax and related interest and penalties would be recognized by the Fund as tax expense in the Statement of Operations if the tax positions were deemed not to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Fund did not incur any income tax, interest, or penalties. As of December 31, 2013, the Adviser has reviewed all open tax years and concluded that there was no impact to the Fund’s net assets or results of operations. Tax years ended December 31, 2010 through December 31, 2013 remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities. On an ongoing basis, the Adviser will monitor the Fund’s tax positions to determine if adjustments to this conclusion are necessary.

The Corporation pays each Director who is not considered to be an affiliated person an annual retainer of $6,000 plus $1,000 for each Board meeting attended and they are reimbursed for any out of pocket expenses incurred in attending meetings.

The GAMCO Global Telecommunications Fund

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors of GAMCO Global Series Funds, Inc. and the Shareholders of The GAMCO Global Telecommunications Fund

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of The GAMCO Global Telecommunications Fund (the “Fund”), one of the series constituting GAMCO Global Series Funds, Inc., as of December 31, 2013, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2013, by correspondence with the Fund’s custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The GAMCO Global Telecommunications Fund

Board Consideration and Re-Approval of Investment Advisory Agreements (Unaudited)

Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services. The Independent Board Members considered information regarding the Fund’s portfolio managers, the depth of the analyst pool available to the Adviser and the Fund’s portfolio managers, the scope of supervisory, administrative, shareholder, and other services supervised or provided by the Adviser and the absence of significant service problems reported to the Board. The Independent Board Members noted the experience, length of service, and reputation of the Fund’s portfolio managers.

Investment Performance. The Independent Board Members reviewed the short, medium, and long term performance of the Fund against a peer group of global telecommunications funds, noting that the Fund’s performance was in the third quartile in its peer group for the one, three, and five year periods.

Profitability. The Independent Board Members reviewed summary data regarding the profitability of the Fund to the Adviser both with a pro rata administrative charge and with a standalone administrative charge. The Independent Board Members also noted that a substantial portion of the Fund’s portfolio transactions were executed by an affiliated broker of the Adviser and that another affiliated broker received distribution fees and minor amounts of sales commissions.

Service and Cost Comparisons. The Independent Board Members compared the expense ratios of the investment management fee, other expenses, and total expenses of the Fund with similar expense ratios of the Lipper peer group of telecommunication funds and noted that the Adviser’s management fee includes substantially all administrative services of the Fund as well as investment advisory services of the Adviser. The Independent Board Members noted that the Fund’s expense ratio was above average and the Fund’s size was below average within this group. The Independent Board Members were presented with, but did not consider material to their decision, various information comparing the advisory fee with the fee for other types of accounts managed by the Adviser.

Conclusions. The Independent Board Members concluded that the Fund enjoyed highly experienced portfolio management services, good ancillary services, and a performance record that was satisfactory. The Independent Board Members also concluded that the Fund’s expense ratios and the profitability to the Adviser of managing the Fund were reasonable, and that economies of scale were not a significant factor in their thinking at this time. The Independent Board Members did not view the potential profitability of ancillary services as material to their decision. On the basis of the foregoing and without assigning particular weight to any single conclusion, the Independent Board Members determined to recommend continuation of the investment management agreement to the full Board of Directors.

2013 TAX NOTICE TO SHAREHOLDERS (Unaudited)

For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Fund paid to shareholders ordinary income distributions (comprised of net investment income) totaling $0.365, $0.370, $0.165, and $0.422, per share for Class AAA, Class A, Class C, and Class I Shares, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2013, 58.44% of the ordinary income distribution qualifies for the dividends received deduction available to corporations. The Fund designates 100% of the ordinary income distribution as qualified dividend income pursuant to the Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2003. The Fund designates 0.03% of the ordinary income distribution as qualified interest income pursuant to the Tax Relief, Unemployment Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010. Also for the year 2013, the Fund passed through foreign tax credits of $0.054 per share to Class AAA, Class A, Class C, and Class I.

U.S. Government Income:

The percentage of the ordinary income distribution paid by the Fund during the year ended December 31, 2013 which was derived from U.S. Treasury securities was 0.03%. Such income is exempt from state and local tax in all states. However, many states, including New York and California, allow a tax exemption for a portion of the income earned only if a mutual fund has invested at least 50% of its assets at the end of each quarter of the Fund’s fiscal year in U.S. Government securities. The Fund did not meet this strict requirement in 2013. The percentage of U.S. Government securities held as of December 31, 2013 was 3.78%. Due to the diversity in state and local tax law, it is recommended that you consult your personal tax adviser as to the applicability of the information provided to your specific situation.

Disclose the audit committee’s pre-approval policies and procedures described in paragraph (c)(7) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures. The Audit Committee (“Committee”) of the registrant is responsible for pre-approving (i) all audit and permissible non-audit services to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm to the registrant and (ii) all permissible non-audit services to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm to the Adviser, Gabelli Funds, LLC, and any affiliate of Gabelli Funds, LLC (“Gabelli”) that provides services to the registrant (a “Covered Services Provider”) if the independent registered public accounting firm’s engagement related directly to the operations and financial reporting of the registrant. The Committee may delegate its responsibility to pre-approve any such audit and permissible non-audit services to the Chairperson of the Committee, and the Chairperson must report to the Committee, at its next regularly scheduled meeting after the Chairperson’s pre-approval of such services, his or her decision(s). The Committee may also establish detailed pre-approval policies and procedures for pre-approval of such services in accordance with applicable laws, including the delegation of some or all of the Committee’s pre-approval responsibilities to the other persons (other than Gabelli or the registrant’s officers). Pre-approval by the Committee of any permissible non-audit services is not required so long as: (i) the permissible non-audit services were not recognized by the registrant at the time of the engagement to be non-audit services; and (ii) such services are promptly brought to the attention of the Committee and approved by the Committee or Chairperson prior to the completion of the audit.

(h)

The registrant’s audit committee of the board of directors has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant that were not pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.
