Non-income producing security. | |
1 | Security exempt from registration pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933. Regulation S applies to securities offerings that are made outside of the United States and do not involve direct selling efforts in the United States. At July 31, 2013, the value of these securities amounted to $53,424,534 or 20.74% of net assets. | |
2 | Security exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933. These securities are considered liquid, unless noted otherwise, and may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. At July 31, 2013, the value of these securities amounted to $42,860,745 or 16.64% of net assets. | |
3 | Variable or floating rate security The interest rate shown is the current rate as of July 31, 2013 and changes periodically. | |
4 | Security is illiquid. At July 31, 2013, the value of this security and other illiquid derivative instruments amounted to $3,026,569 or 1.18% of net assets. | |
5 | Security pays, when required, a floating rate that is determined annually based on the Argentina GDP. | |
6 | Debt security whose principal and/or interest payments are adjusted for inflation, unlike debt securities that make fixed principal and interest payments. The interest rate paid by the securities is fixed, while the principal value rises or falls based on changes in an index. Thus, if inflation occurs, the principal and interest payments on the securities are adjusted accordingly to protect investors from inflationary loss. During a deflationary period, the principal and interest payments decrease, although the securities principal amounts will not drop below their face amounts at maturity. In exchange for the inflation protection, the securities generally pay lower interest rates than typical government securities from the issuer's country. Only if inflation occurs will securities offer a higher real yield than a conventional security of the same maturity. | |
7 | Rate shown reflects annualized yield at July 31, 2013 on zero coupon bond. | |
8 | Step bond Coupon rate increases in increments to maturity. Rate disclosed is as of July 31, 2013. Maturity date disclosed is the ultimate maturity date. | |
9 | The table below details the Funds investments in a fund advised by the same advisor as the Fund. The advisor does not earn a management fee from the affiliated UBS Relationship Fund. |

The Fund calculates its net asset value based on the current market value, where available, for its portfolio securities. The Fund normally obtains market values for its securities and other instruments from independent pricing sources and broker-dealers. Independent pricing sources may use reported last sale prices, official market closing prices, current market quotations or valuations from computerized evaluation systems that derive values based on comparable securities or instruments. An evaluation system incorporates parameters such as security quality, maturity and coupon, and/or research and evaluations by its staff, including review of broker-dealer market price quotations, if available, in determining the valuation of the portfolio securities or instruments. Securities and other instruments also may be valued based on appraisals derived from information concerning the security or instrument or similar securities or instruments received from recognized dealers in those holdings. Securities and instruments traded in the over-the-counter (OTC) market and listed on The NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. (NASDAQ) normally are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. Other OTC securities are valued at the last bid price on the valuation date available prior to valuation. Securities and instruments which are listed on US and foreign stock exchanges normally are valued at the market closing price, the last sale price on the day the securities are valued or, lacking any sales on such day, at the last available bid price. In cases where securities or instruments are traded on more than one exchange, the securities or instruments are valued on the exchange designated as the primary market by UBS Global Asset Management (Americas) Inc. (UBS Global AM or the Advisor), the investment advisor of the Fund. If a market value is not readily available from an independent pricing source for a particular security or instrument, that security or instrument is valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Funds Board. Various factors may be reviewed in order to make a good faith determination of a securitys or instruments fair value. These factors include, but are not limited to, fundamental analytical data relating to the investment; the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition of the securities or instruments; and the evaluation of forces which influence the market in which the securities or instruments are purchased and sold. Certain securities or instruments in which the Fund invests are traded in markets that close before 4:00 p.m., Eastern time. Normally, developments that occur between the close of the foreign markets and 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time will not be reflected in the Funds net asset value. However, if the Fund determines that such developments are so significant that they will materially affect the value of the Funds securities or instruments, the Fund may adjust the previous closing prices to reflect what is believed to be the fair value of these securities or instruments as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at the daily closing net asset value of the respective investment company. Pursuant to the Funds use of the practical expedient within ASC Topic 820, investments in nonregistered investment companies are also valued at the daily net asset value. | |
11 | Payments made or received are based on the notional amount. | |
12 | If the Fund is a buyer of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Fund will either (i) receive from the seller of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and deliver the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index or (ii) receive a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the underlying securities comprising the referenced index. |

The Funds Board of Directors (the Board) has delegated to the UBS Global Asset Management Global Valuation Committee (GVC) the responsibility for making fair value determinations with respect to the Funds portfolio holdings. The GVC is comprised of representatives of management, including members of the investment team.
The GVC provides reports to the Board at each quarterly meeting regarding any securities or instruments that have been fair valued, valued pursuant to standing instructions approved by the GVC, or where non-vendor pricing sources had been used to make fair value determinations when sufficient information exists during the prior quarter. Fair valuation determinations are subject to review at least monthly by the GVC during scheduled meetings. Pricing decisions, processes, and controls over fair value determinations are subject to internal and external reviews, including annual internal compliance reviews and periodic internal audit reviews.
The types of investments for which such fair value pricing may be necessary include, but are not limited to: foreign investments under some circumstances, as discussed below, securities of an issuer that has entered into a restructuring; investments whose trading has been halted or suspended; fixed income securities that are in default and for which there is no current market value quotation; and investments that are restricted as to transfer or resale. The need to fair value a Funds investments may also result from low trading volume in foreign markets or thinly traded domestic investments, and when a security is subject to a trading limit or collar on the exchange or market on which it is primarily traded reaches the limit up or limit down price and no trading has taken place at that price. Various factors may be reviewed in order to make a good faith determination of an investments fair value. These factors include, but are not limited to, fundamental analytical data relating to the investment; the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition of the investment; and the evaluation of forces which influence the market in which the investments are purchased and sold. Valuing investments at fair value involves greater reliance on judgment than valuing investments that have readily available market quotations. Fair value determinations can also involve reliance on quantitative models employed by a fair value pricing service.
US Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) requires disclosure regarding the various inputs that are used in determining the value of the Funds investments. These inputs are summarized into the three broad levels listed below:
Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments.
Level 2 Other significant observable inputs, including but not limited to, quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds and credit risk.
Level 3 Unobservable inputs inclusive of the Funds own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments.
A fair value hierarchy has been included near the end of the Funds Portfolio of investments.
In January 2013, Accounting Standards Update 2013-01 (ASU 2013-01), Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities, replaced Accounting Standards Update 2011-11 (ASU 2011-11), Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. ASU 2013-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. ASU 2011-11 was intended to enhance disclosure requirements on the offsetting of financial assets and liabilities. ASU 2013-01 limits the scope of the new balance sheet offsetting disclosures to derivatives, repurchase agreements, and securities lending transactions to the extent that they are (1) offset in the financial statements or (2) subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement.
Management is currently evaluating the application of ASU 2013-01 and its impact, if any, on the Funds financial statements.
