              FIRST TRUST/ABERDEEN GLOBAL OPPORTUNITY INCOME FUND


                                                                  March 13, 2020


Dear Shareholder:

As you know, the First Trust/Aberdeen Global Opportunity Income Fund (the
"Fund") will hold its Annual Meeting of Shareholders on Thursday, March 26,
2020. Please be aware that an opportunist shareholder, Karpus Management, Inc.,
has submitted a non-binding shareholder proposal that has been included on the
meeting agenda. The shareholder proposal requests the Board to consider a
self-tender offer and possible liquidation of your Fund.

IT IS IMPORTANT TO SEND A STRONG MESSAGE TO KARPUS. If you have not already done
so, please take a few minutes TODAY to vote your shares AGAINST the activist
shareholder proposal submitted by Karpus Management, Inc. ("Karpus"), which THE
BOARD OF TRUSTEES (THE "BOARD") UNANIMOUSLY OPPOSES. It is critical that you and
your fellow shareholders send a strong message to Karpus that you support your
Board and are AGAINST the shareholder proposal. Your vote really does matter.
Please take a moment to sign, date and mail the enclosed proxy card in the
envelope provided or vote by internet or telephone.

THE FUND HAS DELIVERED STRONG PERFORMANCE AND CONTINUES TO MEET ITS LONG-TERM
GOALS. Your Fund has a history of strong performance and has successfully
pursued its investment objectives. Below are a few highlights:

      o  The Fund has delivered HIGHER TOTAL RETURNS on a market value and
         net asset value return basis compared to its benchmarks for EACH OF
         the trailing three month, year-to-date, twelve month, three year,
         and five year periods as of October 31, 2019;

      o  For the trailing three month, year-to-date, twelve month, three
         year, and five year periods ended October 31, 2019, the Fund has
         also delivered HIGHER TOTAL RETURNS on a net asset value return
         basis against the Broadridge Peers, and has delivered HIGHER TOTAL
         RETURNS on a market value return basis against the Broadridge Peers
         for each of the trailing three month, year-to-date and twelve month
         periods;

      o  On July 22, 2019, the Fund increased the distribution rate to
         shareholders; and

      o  As of December 31, 2019, based on the Fund's Share price the Fund
         provided a current distribution rate of 8.26%.

YOUR BOARD AND MANAGEMENT STAND BY THE FUND. Your Board and the Fund's
management stand by the Fund and will continue to operate the Fund in pursuit of
its stated investment objectives - primarily seeking a high level of current
income, with a secondary objective of seeking capital appreciation through
investments in a diversified portfolio of securities in the world bond markets
of investment grade and below-investment grade government and corporate debt
securities. Your Board is keenly aware that a successful long-term strategy does
NOT include potentially liquidating the Fund's holdings or your investment
vehicle at fire sale prices and causing your Fund to bear additional expenses.
Further, in order to open-end or liquidate the Fund, another proxy solicitation
may be required, which could significantly drain your Fund's assets.

DO NOT PUT YOUR FUND AT RISK. YOUR BOARD WILL CONTINUE TO FIGHT FOR THE BEST
INTERESTS OF THE FUND. HELP US PROTECT THE FUND AND YOUR INVESTMENT, AND VOTE
AGAINST KARPUS' PROPOSAL.

If you have not already voted AGAINST Karpus' proposal, please sign, date, and
mail the enclosed proxy card, or vote by telephone or through the Internet
TODAY. If you have already voted against Karpus' proposal, you do not need to
send in another proxy card. Your vote must be received before March 26, 2020 or
it will not be counted. We are making progress against Karpus' proposal, which
could significantly damage your Fund (if not destroy it outright), but we still
need your vote.

Thank you for your continued support.


                             Sincerely,

                             FIRST TRUST/ABERDEEN GLOBAL OPPORTUNITY INCOME FUND

                             /s/ James A. Bowen

                             James A. Bowen
                             Chairman of the Board
