SHAREHOLDERS</font></p>

<p align="center" style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-align:center;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">TO BE HELD ON
APRIL 26, 2007</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-indent:36.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">This Proxy
Statement is furnished in connection with a solicitation of proxies by the
Board of Directors (the &#147;Board&#148;) of Credit Suisse Asset Management Income Fund,
Inc. (the &#147;Fund&#148;) for use at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Fund
scheduled to be held at the offices of Credit Suisse Asset Management, LLC (&#147;Credit
Suisse&#148;), Eleven Madison Avenue, 24th Floor, New York, New York 10010 on April
26, 2007 (commencing at 3:00 p.m. New York time) and at any adjournments
thereof (collectively, the &#147;Meeting&#148;). A Notice of Annual Meeting of
Shareholders and a proxy card (the &#147;Proxy&#148;) accompany this Proxy Statement.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-indent:36.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Proxy
solicitations will be made primarily by mail, but solicitations may also be
made by telephone, telegraph or personal interviews conducted by officers or
employees of the Fund, Credit Suisse, the investment adviser to the Fund, Brown
Brothers Harriman Co., the administrator of the Fund (the &#147;Administrator&#148;), or
D.F. King &amp; Co., Inc. (&#147;D.F. King&#148;), a proxy solicitation firm that has
been retained by the Fund and which will receive a fee not to exceed $1,500 and
will be reimbursed for its reasonable expenses. All costs of solicitation,
including (a) printing and mailing of this Proxy Statement and accompanying
material, (b) the reimbursement of brokerage firms and others for their
expenses in forwarding solicitation material to the beneficial owners of the
Fund&#146;s shares, (c) payment of D.F. King for its services in soliciting Proxies
and (d) supplementary solicitations to submit Proxies, will be borne by the
Fund. This Proxy Statement is expected to be mailed to shareholders on or about
March 2, 2007.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-indent:36.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Credit Suisse has
its principal executive office at Eleven Madison Avenue, 24th Floor, New York,
New York 10010. The Administrator has its principal executive office at 40
Water Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02109. Credit Suisse Asset Management
Limited, located at One Cabot Square, London, UK E14 4QJ, serves as the
investment sub-adviser to the Fund.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-indent:36.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Fund&#146;s Annual
Report containing audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2006 accompanies this Proxy Statement. It is not to be regarded as
proxy-soliciting material.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-indent:36.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">If the enclosed
Proxy is properly executed and returned in time to be voted at the Meeting, the
shares represented thereby will be voted in accordance with the instructions
marked on the Proxy. If no instructions are marked on the Proxy, the Proxy will
be voted &#147;FOR&#148; the election of the Fund&#146;s nominees for Director, and, in
accordance with the judgment of the persons named in the Proxy on any matters
that may properly come before the Meeting and that are deemed appropriate. Any
shareholder giving a Proxy has the right to attend the Meeting to vote his or
her shares in person (thereby revoking any prior Proxy) and also the right to
revoke the Proxy at any time by written notice received by the Fund prior to
the time it is voted.</font></p>


 <p style="font-size:10.0pt;margin:24.0pt 0pt .0001pt;text-align:center;"><font face="Times New Roman">4</font></p> <br><hr size="3" width="100%" noshade color="#010101" align="center">

<br clear="all" style="page-break-before:always;">



<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">A quorum of shareholders
is constituted by the presence in person or by proxy of the holders of a
majority of the outstanding shares of the Fund entitled to vote at the Meeting.
In the event that a quorum is not present at the Meeting, the holders of a
majority of the shares present in person or by proxy will have the power to
adjourn the Meeting, without notice other than an announcement at the Meeting,
until the requisite number of shares entitled to vote at the Meeting is
present. In the event that a quorum is present at the Meeting but sufficient
votes to approve any of the proposals are not received, the persons named as
proxies may propose one or more adjournments of the Meeting to permit further
solicitation of Proxies. Any such adjournment will require the affirmative vote
of a majority of the Fund&#146;s shares represented at the Meeting in person or by
proxy, and the persons named as proxies will vote those Proxies that they are
entitled to vote &#147;FOR&#148; any proposal in favor of such adjournment and will vote
those proxies required to be voted &#147;AGAINST&#148; any proposal against any such
adjournment. Absent the establishment of a subsequent record date and the
giving of notice to the holders of record thereon, the adjourned Meeting must
take place not more than 120 days after the record date. At such adjourned
Meeting, any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the
original Meeting. If a quorum is present, a shareholder vote may be taken on
one or more of the proposals properly brought before the Meeting prior to any
adjournment if sufficient votes have been received and it is otherwise
appropriate.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-indent:36.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">For purposes of
determining the presence of a quorum for transacting business at the Meeting,
abstentions and broker &#147;non-votes&#148; (that is, proxies from brokers or nominees
indicating that such persons have not received instructions from the beneficial
owner or other persons entitled to vote shares on a particular matter with
respect to which the brokers or nominees do not have discretionary power) will
be treated as shares that are present but which have not been voted.
Accordingly, shareholders are urged to forward their voting instructions
promptly.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-indent:36.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The election of a
Director will require that each successful candidate receive a plurality of the
votes cast at the Meeting in person or by proxy. Because abstentions and broker
non-votes are not treated as shares voted, any abstentions and broker non-votes
would have no impact on the election.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-indent:36.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Credit Suisse and its
affiliates have advised the Fund that they intend to vote the shares over which
they have voting power at the Meeting, including shares that are held directly
or on behalf of employees, in the manner instructed by the customers or
employees for which such shares are held.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-indent:36.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Fund has one
class of shares of capital stock, par value $0.001 per share (the &#147;Shares&#148;). On
the record date, February 26, 2007, there were 49,904,551 Shares outstanding.
Each Share is entitled to one vote at the Meeting, and fractional Shares are
entitled to a proportionate share of one vote.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-indent:36.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">In order that your
Shares may be represented at the Meeting, you are requested to:</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt 45.0pt;text-indent:-9.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&#151;indicate your instructions on the Proxy;</font></p>

to be submitted at the Meeting will be the election of two (2) Directors of the

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-indent:36.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Pursuant to the
Fund&#146;s Articles of Incorporation, the Board is divided into three classes, each
class having a term of three years. Each year the term of one class will
expire. Enrique Arzac and Terry Bovarnick are being nominated to serve as Class

the Fund&#146;s 2008 Annual Meeting of Shareholders or until their successors are
duly elected and qualified. Lawrence J. Fox and Lawrence D. Haber are Class II
Directors whose term will expire at the Fund&#146;s 2009 Annual Meeting of

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-indent:36.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Mr. Arzac and Ms.

Effective January 1, 2007, the annual fee will increase to $13,300. The total

other Board members, and the extent to which the candidate would be a desirable
addition to the Board and any committees thereof.</font></p>

<p align="center" style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-align:center;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">REPORT OF THE
AUDIT COMMITTEE</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-indent:36.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Pursuant to the
Audit Committee Charter adopted by the Board (a copy of which is included as
Appendix B to the Fund&#146;s proxy statement), the Audit Committee is responsible
for conferring with the Fund&#146;s independent registered public accounting firm,
reviewing annual financial statements, approving the selection of the Fund&#146;s
independent registered public accounting firm and overseeing the Fund&#146;s
internal controls. The Fund&#146;s Audit Committee charter also contains provisions
relating to the pre-approval by the Audit Committee of certain non-audit
services to be provided by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (&#147;PwC&#148;) to the Fund and
to Credit Suisse and certain of its affiliates. The Audit Committee advises the
full Board with respect to accounting, auditing and financial matters affecting
the Fund. The independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for
planning and carrying out audits in accordance with standards established by
the Public Accounting Oversight Board (United States).</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-indent:36.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Audit
Committee has met with the Fund&#146;s management to discuss, among other things,
the Fund&#146;s audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31,
2006. The Audit Committee has also met with the Fund&#146;s independent registered
public accounting firm, PwC, and discussed with it certain matters required by
Statement of Auditing Standards No. 61, COMMUNICATIONS WITH AUDIT COMMITTEES,
as currently modified or supplemented, including, but not limited to, the scope
of the Fund&#146;s audit, the Fund&#146;s financial statements and the Fund&#146;s accounting
controls. The Audit Committee has received from PwC the letter required by the
Securities and Exchange Commission&#146;s (&#147;SEC&#148;) independence rules describing any
relationships between it and the Fund, Credit Suisse and its affiliates that
may be thought to bear upon the independence of the independent registered
public accounting firm. The Audit Committee has discussed with PwC its
independence and has considered whether the provision of services by PwC to the
Fund, Credit Suisse and its affiliates was compatible with maintaining PwC&#146;s
independence.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-indent:36.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The members of the
Audit Committee are not professionally engaged in the practice of auditing or
accounting and are not employed by the Fund for accounting, financial
management or internal control. Moreover, the Audit Committee relies on and
makes no independent verification of the facts presented to it or
representations made by management or the independent registered public
accounting firm. Accordingly, the Audit Committee&#146;s oversight does not provide
an independent basis for determining that management has maintained appropriate
accounting and financial reporting principles and policies, or internal
controls and procedures, designed to assure compliance with accounting
standards and applicable laws and regulations. Furthermore, the Audit Committee&#146;s
