Securities
and
Exchange
Commission
(the
“SEC”)
Adopts
Amendments
for
Tailored
Shareholder
Reports
On
October
26,
2022,
the
SEC
adopted
rule
and
form
amendments
(the
“Amendments”)
that
require
mutual
funds
and
exchange-traded
funds
registered
on
Form
N-1A
to
provide
shareholders
with
streamlined
annual
and
semi-annual
shareholder
reports
(“Tailored
Shareholder
Reports”).
The
Amendments
require
funds
to
prepare
a
separate
Tailored
Shareholder
Report
for
each
share
class
of
each
series
of
a
fund.
As
a
result,
shareholders
will
receive
a
report
that
covers
only
the
class
of
a
multi-class
fund
in
which
the
shareholder
invests.
Tailored
Shareholder
Reports
are
meant
to
be
three
to
four
pages
in
length
and
will
highlight
key
information
such
as
a
fund’s
expenses,
performance
and
portfolio
holdings.
Other,
more
detailed
information
that
currently
appears
in
fund
shareholder
reports
will
be
made
available
online,
filed
with
the
SEC,
and
delivered
to
investors
free
of
charge
in
paper
or
electronically
upon
request.
The
first
Tailored
Shareholder
Reports
to
be
prepared
for
these
Funds
will
be
for
the
reporting
period
ended
August
31,
2024.

Kristal

CFA,
was
added
as
a
portfolio
manager
of
Nuveen

There

4
Risk
Considerations
and
Dividend
Information
Risk
Considerations
Nuveen
Credit
Income
Fund
Mutual
fund
investing
involves
risk;
principal
loss
is
possible.
There
is
no
guarantee
the
Fund’s
investment
objectives
will
be
achieved.
Credit
risk
arises
from
an
issuer’s
ability
to
make
interest
and
principal
payments
when
due,
as
well
as
the
prices
of
bonds
declining
when
an
issuer’s
credit
quality
is
expected
to
deteriorate.
The
Fund’s
income
could
decline
during
periods
of
falling
interest
rates.
Investments
in
below
investment
grade
or
high
yield
securities
are
subject
to
liquidity
risk
and
heightened
credit
risk.
This
Fund
is
subject
to
the
risks
of
investing
in
loans,
including
senior
loans
and
secured
and
unsecured
junior
loans.
Unsecured
loans
are
not
backed
by
a
security
interest
in
collateral
and
involve
a
higher
degree
of
risk
than
secured
loans.
Loans
are
also
subject
to
settlement
risk
due
to
the
lack
of
established
settlement
standards
or
remedies
for
failure
to
settle,
and
may
have
limited
restrictive
covenants
on
borrowers,
which
may
weaken
the
Fund’s
ability
to
access
collateral
securing
the
loan
and
enforce
its
rights
as
a
lender.
The
Fund
may
also
invest
in
a
pool
of
loans
through
collateralized
loan
obligations
(CLOs).
In
addition
to
the
risks
associated
with
loans
and
high
yield
securities,
CLOs
are
subject
to
the
risk
that
distributions
from
the
collateral
may
not
be
adequate
to
make
interest
or
other
payments
owed
to
the
Fund.
Asset-backed
and
mortgage-backed
securities
are
subject
to
additional
risks
such
as
prepayment
risk,
liquidity
risk,
default
risk
and
adverse
economic
developments.
Preferred
securities
are
subordinate
to
bonds
and
other
debt
instruments
in
a
company’s
capital
structure
and
therefore
are
subject
to
greater
credit
risk.
Certain
types
of
preferred,
hybrid
or
debt
securities
with
special
loss
absorption
provisions,
such
as
contingent
capital
securities
(CoCos),
may
be
or
become
so
subordinated
that
they
present
risks
equivalent
to,
or
in
some
cases
even
greater
than,
the
same
company’s
common
stock.
Non-U.S.
investments
involve
risks
such
as
currency
fluctuation,
political
and
economic
instability,
lack
of
liquidity
and
differing
legal
and
accounting
standards.
These
risks
are
magnified
in
emerging
markets.
These
and
other
risk
considerations,
such
as
call,
derivatives,
illiquid
investments,
interest
rate,
market,
and
valuation
risks,
are
described
in
detail
in
the
Fund’s
prospectus.
Nuveen
Flexible
Income
Fund
Mutual
fund
investing
involves
risk;
principal
loss
is

Debt
and
fixed
income
securities
such
as
those
held
by
the
Fund,
are
subject
to
market
risk,
credit
risk,
interest
rate
risk,
call
risk,
and
income
risk.
As
interest
rates
rise,
bond
prices
fall.
Below
investment
grade
or
high
yield
debt
securities
are
subject
to
liquidity
risk
and
heightened
credit
risk.
Preferred
securities
are
subordinate
to
bonds
and
other
debt
instruments
in
a
company's
capital
structure
and
therefore
are
subject
to
greater
credit
risk.
Foreign
investments
involve
additional
risks,
including
currency
fluctuation,
political
and
economic
instability,
lack
of
liquidity
and
differing
legal
and
accounting
standards.
Asset-backed
and
mortgage-backed
securities
are
subject
to
additional
risks
such
as
prepayment
risk,
liquidity
risk
and
adverse
economic
developments.
Concentration
in
the
financial
services
sector
may
involve
greater
exposure
to
adverse
economic
or
regulatory
occurrences.
Equity
investments
such
as
those
held
by
the
Fund,
are
subject
to
market
risk,
common
stock
risk,
covered
call
risk,
short
sale
risk,
and
derivatives
risk.

economic
instability,
lack
of
liquidity
and
differing
legal
and
accounting
standards.
The
value
of
the
Fund's
convertible
securities
may
decline
in
response
to
such
factors
as
rising
interest
rates
and
fluctuations
in
the
market
price
of
the
underlying
securities.
This
Fund
is
subject
to
loan
settlement
risk
due
to
the
lack
of
established
settlement
standards
or
remedies
for
failure
to
settle.

prices
fall.
This
Fund
is
subject
to
the
risks
of

in

including
loan
settlement
risk
due
to
the
lack
of
established
settlement
standards
or
remedies
for
failure
to
settle
and
covenant
lite
loan
risk,
which
is
the
risk
that
loans
with
limited
restrictive

on
borrowers
may
weaken
the
Fund’s
ability
to
access
collateral
securing
the
loan
and
enforce

involve

These

considerations,
such
as
active

risks,
are
described
in

The

gains
additional

therefore
to
the

fluctuation,
through
investment
in
foreign

The

Dividend
Information
Each
Fund
seeks
to
pay
regular
monthly
dividends
out
of
its
net
investment
income
at
a
rate
that
reflects
its
past
and
projected
net
income
performance.
To
permit
each
Fund
to
maintain
a
more
stable
monthly
dividend,
the
Fund
may
pay
dividends
at
a
rate
that
may
be
more
or
less
than
the
amount
of
net
income
actually
earned
by
the
Fund
during
the
period.
Distributions
to
shareholders
are
determined
on
a
tax
basis,
which
may
differ
from
amounts
recorded
in
the
accounting
records.
In
instances
where
the
monthly
dividend
exceeds
the
earned
net
investment
income,
the
Fund
would
report
a
negative
undistributed
net
ordinary
income.
Refer
Income
Tax
Information
within
the
Notes
to
Financial
Statements
for
additional
information
regarding
the
amounts
of
undistributed
net
ordinary
income
and
undistributed
net
long-term
capital
gains
and
the
character
of
the
actual
distributions
paid
by
the
Fund
during
the
period.
All
monthly
dividends
paid
by
each
Fund
during
the
current
reporting
period
were
paid
from
net
investment
income.
If
a
portion
of
a
Fund’s
monthly
distributions
is
sourced
or
comprised
of
elements
other
than
net
investment
income,
including
capital
gains
and/
or
a
return
of
capital,
shareholders
will
be
notified
of
those
sources.
For
financial
reporting
purposes,
the
per
share
amounts
of
the
Fund’s
distributions
for
the
reporting
period
are
presented
in
this
report’s
Financial
Highlights.
For

tax
purposes,
distribution
information
for

Fund
Performance
Performance
data
shown
represents
past
performance
and
does
not
predict
or
guarantee
future
results.
Investment
returns
and
principal
value
will
fluctuate
so
that
when
shares
are
redeemed,
they
may
be
worth
more
or
less
than
their
original
cost.
Current
performance
may
be
higher
or
lower
than
the
performance
shown.
Total
returns
for
a
period
of
less
than
one
year
are
not
annualized
(i.e.
cumulative
returns).
Since
inception
returns
are
shown
for
share
classes
that
have
less
than
10-years
of
performance.
Returns
at
net
asset
value
(NAV)
would
be
lower
if
the
sales
charge
were
included.
Returns
assume
reinvestment
of
dividends
and
capital
gains.
For
performance,
current
to
the
most
recent
month-end
visit
Nuveen.com
or
call
(800)

Returns
do
not
reflect
the
deduction
of
taxes
that
a
shareholder
would
pay
on
Fund
distributions
or
the
redemption
of
Fund
shares.
Income
is
generally
exempt
from
regular
federal
income
taxes.
Some
income
may
be
subject
to
state
and
local
income
taxes
and
to
the
federal
alternative
minimum
tax.
Capital
gains,
if
any,
are
subject
to
tax.
Returns
may
reflect
fee
waivers
and/or
expense
reimbursements
by
the
investment
adviser
during
the
periods
presented.
If
any
such
waivers
and/or
reimbursements
had
not
been
in
place,
returns
would
have
been
reduced.
See
Notes
to
Financial
Statements,
for
more
information.
Returns
reflect
differences
in
sales
charges
and
expenses,
which
are
primarily
differences
in
distribution
and
service
fees,
and
assume
reinvestment
of
dividends
and
capital
gains.

The

However,
because

the

The
Fund’s
investment
adviser
has
contractually
agreed
to
waive
fees
and/or
reimburse
expenses
through
July
31,
2025
so
that
the
total
annual
operating
expenses
(excluding
12b-1
distribution
and/or
service
fees,
interest
expenses,
taxes,
acquired
fund
fees
and
expenses,
fees
incurred
in
acquiring

and
extraordinary
expenses)
do
not
exceed
0.59%
of
the
average
daily
net
assets
of
any
class
of
Fund
Shares.
However,
because
the
Class
R6
shares
are
not
subject
to
sub-transfer agent
and
similar
fees,
the
total
annual
operating
expenses
for

will
be
less
than

limitation.
This

may

Yields
as
of
February
29,
2024
21
Dividend
Yield
is
the
most
recent
dividend
per
share
(annualized)
divided
by
the
offering
price
per
share.
The
SEC
30-Day
Yield
is
a
standardized
measure
of
a
fund’s
yield
that
accounts
for
the
future
amortization
of
premiums
or
discounts
of
bonds
held
in
the
fund’s
portfolio.
The
SEC
30-Day
Yield
is
computed
under
an
SEC
standardized
formula
and
is
based
on
the
maximum
offer
price
per
share.
Subsidized
yields
reflect
fee
waivers
and/or
expense
reimbursements
from
the
investment
adviser
during
the
period.
If
any
such
waivers
and/or
reimbursements
had
not
been
in
place,
yields
would
have
been
reduced.
Unsubsidized
yields
do
not
reflect
waivers
and/or
reimbursements
from
the
investment
adviser
during
the
period.
Refer
to
the
Notes
to
Financial
Statements,
for
further
details
on
the
investment
adviser’s
most
recent
agreement
with
the
Fund
to
waive
fees
and/or
reimburse
expenses,
where
applicable.
Dividend
Yield
may
differ
from
the
SEC
30-Day
Yield
because
the
fund
may
be
paying
out
more
or
less
than
it
is
earning
and
it
may
not
include
the
effect
of
amortization
of
bond
premium.

The
SEC
Yield
for
Class
A
shares
quoted
in
the
table
reflects
the
maximum
sales
load.
Investors
paying
a
reduced
load
because
of
volume
discounts,
investors
paying
no
load
because
they
qualify
for
one
of
the
several
exclusions
from
the
load
and
existing
shareholders
who
previously
paid
a
load
but
would
like
to
know
the
SEC
Yield
applicable
to
their
shares
on
a
going-forward
basis,
should
understand
the
SEC
Yield
effectively
applicable
to
them
would
be
higher
than
the
figure
quoted
in
the
table.
Expense
Examples
23
As
a
shareholder
of
one
or
more
of
the
Funds,
you
incur
two
types
of
costs:
(1)
transaction
costs, including
up-front
and
back-end
sales
charges
(loads)
or
redemption
fees,
where
applicable;
and
(2)
ongoing
costs,
including
management
fees;
distribution
and
service
(12b-1)
fees,
where
applicable;
and
other
Fund
expenses.
The
Examples
below
are
intended
to
help
you
understand
your
ongoing
costs
(in
dollars)
of
investing
in
the
Funds
and
to
compare
these
costs
with
the
ongoing
costs
of investing
in
other
mutual
funds.
The
Examples
below
are
based
on
an
investment
of
$1,000
invested
at
the
beginning
of
the
period
and
held
through
the
period
ended
February
29,
2024.
The
beginning
of
the
period
is
September
1,
2023.
The
information
under
“Actual
Performance,”
together
with
the
amount
you
invested,
allows
you
to
estimate
actual
expenses
incurred
over
the
reporting
period.
Simply
divide
your
account
value
by
$1,000
(for
example,
an
$8,600
account
value
divided
by
$1,000
=
8.60)
and
multiply
the
result
by
the
cost
shown
for
your
share
class,
in
the
row
entitled
“Expenses
Incurred
During
Period”
to
estimate
the
expenses
incurred
on
your
account
during
this
period.
The
information
under
“Hypothetical
Performance,”
provides
information
about
hypothetical
account
values
and
hypothetical
expenses
based
on
each
Fund’s
actual
expense
ratios
and
an
assumed
rate
of
return
of
5%
per
year
before
expenses,
which
is
not
the
Fund’s
actual
return.
The
hypothetical
account
values
and
expenses
may
not
be
used
to
estimate
the
actual
ending
account
balance
or
expense
you
incurred
for
the
period.
You
may
use
this
information
to
compare
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
the
shareholder
reports
of
the
other
funds.
Please
note
that
the
expenses
shown
in
the
following
tables
are
meant
to
highlight
your
ongoing
costs
only
and
do
not
reflect
any
transaction
costs.
Therefore,
the
hypothetical
information
is
useful
in
comparing
ongoing
costs
only,
and
will
not
help
you
determine
the
relative
total
costs
of
owning
different
funds
or
share
classes.
In
addition,
if
these
transaction
costs
were
included,
your
costs
would
have
been
higher.

For

the

classifications
refer

of
the

sub-classifications
used
by
one
or
more
widely
recognized
market
indexes
or
ratings
group

and/or
as
defined
by
Fund
management.
This
definition
may
not
apply
for
purposes
of
this
report,
which
may
combine
industry
sub-classifications
into
sectors
for
reporting
ease.
(a)
All
percentages
shown
in
the
Portfolio
of

are
based
on
net
assets.
(b)
Investment,
or
a
portion
of
investment,
is
out
on
loan
for
securities
lending.
The
total
value
of
the
securities
out
on
loan
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period
was
$4,224,677.
(c)
Defaulted
security.
A
security
whose
issuer
has
failed
to
fully
pay
principal
and/or
interest
when
due,
or
is
under
the
protection
of
bankruptcy.
(d)
Variable
rate
security.
The
rate
shown
is
the
coupon
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period.
(e)
For
fair
value
measurement
disclosure
purposes,
investment
classified
as
Level
3.
(f)
Senior
loans
generally
pay
interest
at
rates
which
are
periodically
adjusted
by
reference
to
a
base
short-term,
floating
lending
rate
(Reference
Rate)
plus
an
assigned
fixed
rate
(Spread).
These
floating
lending
rates
are
generally
(
i
)
the
lending
rate
referenced
by
the
London
Inter-Bank
Offered
Rate
("LIBOR"),
or
(ii)
the
prime
rate
offered
by
one
or
more
major
United
States
banks.
Senior
loans
may
be
considered
restricted
in
that
the
Fund
ordinarily
is
contractually
obligated
to
receive
approval
from
the
agent
bank
and/or
borrower
prior
to
the
disposition
of
a
senior
loan.
The
rate
shown
is
the
coupon
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period.
(g)
Senior
loans
generally
are
subject
to
mandatory
and/or
optional
prepayment.
Because
of
these
mandatory
prepayment
conditions
and
because
there
may
be
significant
economic
incentives
for
a
borrower
to
prepay,
prepayments
of
senior
loans
may
occur.
As
a
result,
the
actual
remaining
maturity
of
senior
loans
held
may
be
substantially
less
than
the
stated
maturities
shown.

(h)
Perpetual

or
a
mandatory

under
certain

such
as

For
Fund
portfolio
compliance
purposes,
the
Fund’s
industry
classifications
refer
to
any
one
or
more
of
the
industry
sub-classifications
used
by
one
or
more
widely
recognized
market
indexes
or
ratings
group
indexes,
and/or
as
defined
by
Fund
management.
This
definition
may
not
apply
for
purposes
of
this
report,
which
may
combine
industry
sub-classifications
into
sectors
for
reporting
ease.
(a)
All
percentages
shown
in
the
Portfolio
of
Investments
are
based
on
net
assets.
(b)
Senior
loans
generally
pay
interest
at
rates
which
are
periodically
adjusted
by
reference
to
a
base
short-term,
floating
lending
rate
(Reference
Rate)
plus
an
assigned
fixed
rate
(Spread).
These
floating
lending
rates
are
generally
(i)
the
lending
rate
referenced
by
the
London
Inter-Bank
Offered
Rate
("LIBOR"),
or
(ii)
the
prime
rate
offered
by
one
or
more
major
United
States
banks.
Senior
loans
may
be
considered
restricted
in
that
the
Fund
ordinarily
is
contractually
obligated
to
receive
approval
from
the
agent
bank
and/or
borrower
prior
to
the
disposition
of
a
senior
loan.
The
rate
shown
is
the
coupon
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period.
(c)
Senior
loans
generally
are
subject
to
mandatory
and/or
optional
prepayment.
Because
of
these
mandatory
prepayment
conditions
and
because
there
may
be
significant
economic
incentives
for
a
borrower
to
prepay,
prepayments
of
senior
loans
may
occur.
As
a
result,
the
actual
remaining
maturity
of
senior
loans
held
may
be
substantially
less
than
the
stated
maturities
shown.
(d)
Investment,
or
portion
of
investment,
represents
an
outstanding
unfunded
senior
loan
commitment.
(e)
Defaulted
security.
A
security
whose
issuer
has
failed
to
fully
pay
principal
and/or
interest
when
due,
or
is
under
the
protection
of
bankruptcy.
(f)
Principal
Amount
(000)
rounds
to
less
than
$1,000.
(g)
Investment,
or
a
portion
of
investment,
is
out
on
loan
for
securities
lending.
The
total
value
of
the
securities
out
on
loan
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period
was
$2,539,085.
(h)
Non-income
producing;
issuer
has
not
declared
an
ex-dividend
date
within
the
past
twelve
months.
(i)
For
fair
value
measurement
disclosure
purposes,
investment
classified
as
Level
3.
(j)
On
March
1,
2024,
Vistra
Corp.
(“Vistra”)
completed
its
acquisition
of
Energy
Harbor
Corp
(“ENGH”).  ENGH
has
been
merged
into
a
newly
formed
subsidiary
of
Vistra,
Vistra
Vision.  In
connection
with
the
transaction,
holders
of
ENGH
common
stock
received
a
combination
of
cash
and
membership
interests
in
Vistra
Vision.  
These
Vistra
Vision
interests
were
issued
in
a
private
transaction
and
may
have
reduced
secondary
market
liquidity.
(k)
The
Fund
may
loan
securities
representing
up
to
one
third
of
the
value
of
its
total
assets
(which
includes
collateral
for
securities
on
loan)
to
broker
dealers,
banks,
and
other
institutions.
The
collateral
maintained
by
the
Fund
shall
have
a
value,
at
the
inception
of
each
loan,
equal
to
not
less
than
100%
of
the
value
of
the
loaned
securities.
The
cash
collateral
received
by
the
Fund
is
invested
in
this
money
market
fund.
(l)
The
rate
shown
is
the
one-day
yield
as
of

Certain
details
associated
with
this
purchase
are
not
known
prior
to

For
Fund
portfolio
compliance
purposes,
the
Fund’s
industry
classifications
refer
to
any
one
or
more
of
the
industry
sub-classifications
used
by
one
or
more
widely
recognized
market
indexes
or
ratings
group
indexes,
and/or
as
defined
by
Fund
management.
This
definition
may
not
apply
for
purposes
of
this
report,
which
may
combine
industry
sub-classifications
into
sectors
for
reporting
ease.
(a)
All
percentages
shown
in
the
Portfolio
of
Investments
are
based
on
net
assets.
(b)
Variable
rate
security.
The
rate
shown
is
the
coupon
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period.
(c)
Investment,
or
a
portion
of
investment,
is
out
on
loan
for
securities
lending.
The
total
value
of
the
securities
out
on
loan
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period
was
$32,675,466.
(d)
Senior
loans
generally
pay
interest
at
rates
which
are
periodically
adjusted
by
reference
to
a
base
short-term,
floating
lending
rate
(Reference
Rate)
plus
an
assigned
fixed
rate
(Spread).
These
floating
lending
rates
are
generally
(i)
the
lending
rate
referenced
by
the
London
Inter-Bank
Offered
Rate
("LIBOR"),
or
(ii)
the
prime
rate
offered
by
one
or
more
major
United
States
banks.
Senior
loans
may
be
considered
restricted
in
that
the
Fund
ordinarily
is
contractually
obligated
to
receive
approval
from
the
agent
bank
and/or
borrower
prior
to
the
disposition
of
a
senior
loan.
The
rate
shown
is
the
coupon
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period.
(e)
Senior
loans
generally
are
subject
to
mandatory
and/or
optional
prepayment.
Because
of
these
mandatory
prepayment
conditions
and
because
there
may
be
significant
economic
incentives
for
a
borrower
to
prepay,
prepayments
of
senior
loans
may
occur.
As
a
result,
the
actual
remaining
maturity
of
senior
loans
held
may
be
substantially
less
than
the
stated
maturities
shown.
(f)
Perpetual
security.
Maturity
date
is
not
applicable.
(g)
Contingent
Capital
Securities
(“CoCos”)
are
hybrid
securities
with
loss
absorption
characteristics
built
into
the
terms
of
the
security
for
the
benefit
of
the
issuer.
For
example,
the
terms
may
specify
an
automatic
write-down
of
principal
or
a
mandatory
conversion
into
the
issuer’s
common
stock
under
certain
adverse
circumstances,
such
as
the
issuer’s
capital
ratio
falling
below
a
specified
level.
(h)
Non-income
producing;
issuer
has
not
declared
an
ex-dividend
date
within
the
past
twelve
months.
(i)
On
March
1,
2024,
Vistra
Corp.
(“Vistra”)
completed
its
acquisition
of
Energy
Harbor
Corp
(“ENGH”).  ENGH
has
been
merged
into
a
newly
formed
subsidiary
of
Vistra,
Vistra
Vision.  In
connection
with
the
transaction,
holders
of
ENGH
common
stock
received
a
combination
of
cash
and
membership
interests
in
Vistra
Vision.  
These
Vistra
Vision
interests
were
issued
in
a
private
transaction
and
may
have
reduced
secondary
market
liquidity.
(j)
The
Fund
may
loan
securities
representing
up
to
one
third
of
the
value
of
its
total
assets
(which
includes
collateral
for
securities
on
loan)
to
broker
dealers,
banks,
and
other
institutions.
The
collateral
maintained
by
the
Fund
shall
have
a
value,
at
the
inception
of
each
loan,
equal
to
not
less
than
100%
of
the
value
of
the
loaned
securities.
The
cash
collateral
received
by
the
Fund
is
invested
in
this
money
market
fund.
(k)
The
rate
shown
is
the
one-day
yield
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period.
(l)
The
rate
shown
is
the
annualized
seven-day
subsidized
yield
as
of
end
of
the
reporting
period.

For
Fund
portfolio
compliance
purposes,
the
Fund’s
industry
classifications
refer
to
any
one
or
more
of
the
industry
sub-classifications
used
by
one
or
more
widely
recognized
market
indexes
or
ratings
group
indexes,
and/or
as
defined
by
Fund
management.
This
definition
may
not
apply
for
purposes
of
this
report,
which
may
combine
industry
sub-classifications
into
sectors
for
reporting
ease.
(a)
All
percentages
shown
in
the
Portfolio
of
Investments
are
based
on
net
assets.
(b)
Variable
rate
security.
The
rate
shown
is
the
coupon
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period.
(c)
For
fair
value
measurement
disclosure
purposes,
investment
classified
as
Level
3.
(d)
Investment,
or
a
portion
of
investment,
is
out
on
loan
for
securities
lending.
The
total
value
of
the
securities
out
on
loan
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period
was
$6,825,482.
(e)
Defaulted
security.
A
security
whose
issuer
has
failed
to
fully
pay
principal
and/or
interest
when
due,
or
is
under
the
protection
of
bankruptcy.
(f)
Perpetual
security.
Maturity
date
is
not
applicable.
(g)
Senior
loans
generally
pay
interest
at
rates
which
are
periodically
adjusted
by
reference
to
a
base
short-term,
floating
lending
rate
(Reference
Rate)
plus
an
assigned
fixed
rate
(Spread).
These
floating
lending
rates
are
generally
(
i
)
the
lending
rate
referenced
by
the
London
Inter-Bank
Offered
Rate
("LIBOR"),
or
(ii)
the
prime
rate
offered
by
one
or
more
major
United
States
banks.
Senior
loans
may
be
considered
restricted
in
that
the
Fund
ordinarily
is
contractually
obligated
to
receive
approval
from
the
agent
bank
and/or
borrower
prior
to
the
disposition
of
a
senior
loan.
The
rate
shown
is
the
coupon
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period.
(h)
Senior
loans
generally
are
subject
to
mandatory
and/or
optional
prepayment.
Because
of
these
mandatory
prepayment
conditions
and
because
there
may
be
significant
economic
incentives
for
a
borrower
to
prepay,
prepayments
of
senior
loans
may
occur.
As
a
result,
the
actual
remaining
maturity
of
senior
loans
held
may
be
substantially
less
than
the
stated
maturities
shown.
(
i
)
Contingent
Capital
Securities
(“
CoCos
”)
are
hybrid
securities
with
loss
absorption
characteristics
built
into
the
terms
of
the
security
for
the
benefit
of
the
issuer.
For
example,
the
terms
may
specify
an
automatic
write-down
of
principal
or
a
mandatory
conversion
into
the
issuer’s
common
stock
under
certain
adverse
circumstances,
such
as
the
issuer’s
capital
ratio
falling
below
a
specified
level.
(j)
The
Fund
may
loan
securities
representing
up
to
one
third
of
the
value
of
its
total
assets
(which
includes
collateral
for
securities
on
loan)
to
broker
dealers,
banks,
and
other
institutions.
The
collateral
maintained
by
the
Fund
shall
have
a
value,
at
the
inception
of
each
loan,
equal
to
not
less
than
100%
of
the
value
of
the
loaned
securities.
The
cash
collateral
received
by
the
Fund
is
invested
in
this
money
market
fund.
(k)
The
rate
shown
is
the
one-day
yield
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period.

The
NAV
for
financial
reporting
purposes
may
differ
from
the
NAV
for
processing
security
and shareholder
transactions.
The
NAV
for
financial
reporting
purposes
includes
security
and
common
share
transactions
through
the
date
of
the
report.
Total
return
is
computed
based
on
the
NAV
used
for
processing
security
and
common
share
transactions.
The
following
is
a
summary
of
the
significant
accounting
policies
consistently
followed
by
the
Funds.
Compensation
:
None
of
the
Trusts
pay
compensation
directly
to
those
of
its officers,
all
of
whom
receive
remuneration
for
their
services
to
each
Trust
from
the
Adviser
or
its
affiliates.
The
Funds'
Board
of
Directors/Trustees
(the
"Board")
has
adopted
a
deferred
compensation
plan
for
independent
trustees
that
enables
directors/trustees
to
elect
to
defer
receipt
of
all
or
a
portion
of
the
annual
compensation
they
are
entitled
to
receive
from
certain
Nuveen-advised
funds.
Under
the
plan,
deferred
amounts
are
treated
as
though
equal
dollar
amounts
had
been
invested
in
shares
of
select
Nuveen-advised
funds.
Distributions
to
Shareholders:
Distributions
to
shareholders
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date.
The
amount,
character
and
timing
of
distributions
are
determined
in
accordance
with
federal
income
tax
regulations,
which
may
differ
from
U.S.
GAAP.
Foreign
Currency
Transactions
and
Translation:
The
books
and
records
of
the
Funds
are
maintained
in
U.S.
dollars.
Assets,
including
investments,
and
liabilities
denominated
in
foreign
currencies
are
translated
into
U.S.
dollars
at
the
end
of
each
day.
Purchases
and
sales
of
securities,
income
and
expenses
are
translated
into
U.S.
dollars
at
the
prevailing
exchange
rate
on
the
respective
dates
of
the
transactions.
Net
realized
foreign
currency
gains
and
losses
resulting
from
changes
in
exchange
rates
associated
with
(i)
foreign
currency,
(ii)
investments
and
(iii)
derivatives
include
foreign
currency
gains
and
losses
between
trade
date
and
settlement
date
of
the
transactions,
foreign
currency
transactions,
and
the
difference
between
the
amounts
of
interest
and
dividends
recorded
on
the
books
of
the
Funds
and
the
amounts
actually
received
are
recognized
as
a
component
of
“Net
realized
gain
(loss)
from
foreign
currency
transactions”
on
the
Statement
of
Operations,
when
applicable.
The
unrealized
gains
and
losses
resulting
from
changes
in
foreign
currency
exchange
rates
and
changes
in
foreign
exchange
rates
associated
with
(i)
investments
and
(ii)
other
assets
and
liabilities
are
recognized
as
a
component
of
“Change
in
unrealized
appreciation
(depreciation)
on foreign
currency
translations”
on
the
Statement
of
Operations,
when
applicable.
The
unrealized
gains
and
losses
resulting
from
changes
in
foreign
exchange
rates
associated
with
investments
in
derivatives
are
recognized
as
a
component
of
the
respective
derivative’s
related
“Change
in
unrealized
appreciation
(depreciation)”
on
the
Statement
of
Operations,
when
applicable.
As
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period,
the
following
Fund's
investments
in
non-U.S.
securities
were
as
follows:
119
Foreign
Taxes:
The
Funds
may
be
subject
to
foreign
taxes
on
income,
gains
on
investments
or
foreign
currency
repatriation,
a
portion
of
which
may
be
recoverable.
The
Funds
will
accrue
such
taxes
and
recoveries
as
applicable,
based
upon
the
current
interpretation
of
tax
rules
and
regulations
that
exist
in
the
markets
in
which
the
Funds
invest.
Indemnifications:
Under each
Trust’s
organizational
documents,
its
officers
and
directors/trustees
are
indemnified
against
certain
liabilities
arising
out
of
the
performance
of
their
duties
to each
Trust.
In
addition,
in
the
normal
course
of
business, each
Trust
enters
into
contracts
that
provide
general
indemnifications
to
other
parties. Each
Trust’s
maximum
exposure
under
these
arrangements
is
unknown
as
this
would
involve
future
claims
that
may
be
made
against each
Trust
that
have
not
yet
occurred.
However, each
Trust
has
not
had
prior
claims
or
losses
pursuant
to
these
contracts
and
expects
the
risk
of
loss
to
be
remote.
Investments
and
Investment
Income:
Securities
transactions
are
accounted
for
as
of
the
trade
date
for
financial
reporting
purposes.
Trade
date
for
senior
and
subordinated
loans
purchased
in
the
“primary
market”
is
considered
the
date
on
which
the
loan
allocations
are
determined.
Trade
date
for
senior
and
subordinated
loans
purchased
in
the
“secondary
market”
is
the
date
on
which
the
transaction
is
entered
into.
Realized
gains
and
losses
on
securities
transactions
are
based
upon
the
specific
identification
method.
Dividend
income
is
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date
or,
for
foreign
securities,
when
information
is
available.
Non-cash
dividends
received
in
the
form
of
stock,
if
any,
are
recognized
on
the
ex-dividend
date
and
recorded
at
fair
value.
Interest
income,
which
is
recorded
on
an
accrual
basis
and
includes
accretion
of
discounts
and
amortization
of
premiums
for
financial
reporting
purposes.
Interest
income
also
reflects
payment-in-kind
(“PIK”)
interest
and
paydown
gains
and
losses,
if
any.
PIK
interest
represents
income
received
in
the
form
of
securities
in
lieu
of
cash.
Fee
income
consists
primarily
of
amendment
fees,
when
applicable.
Amendment
fees
are
earned
as
compensation
for
evaluating
and
accepting
changes
to
an
original
senior
loan
agreement
and
are
recognized
when
received.
Securities
lending
income
is
comprised
of
fees
earned
from
borrowers
and
income
earned
on
cash
collateral
investments.
Fee
income
and
amendment
fees,
if
any,
are
recognized
as
“Fees”
on
the
Statement
of
Operations.
Multiclass
Operations
and
Allocations:
Income
and
expenses
of
the
Funds that
are
not
directly
attributable
to
a
specific
class
of
shares
are
prorated
among
the
classes
based
on
the
relative
value
of
the
settled
shares
of
each
class.
 Expenses
directly
attributable
to
a
class
of
shares
are
recorded
to
the
specific
class.
12b-1
distribution
and
service
fees
are
allocated
on
a
class-specific
basis.
Sub-transfer
agent
fees
and
similar
fees,
which
are
recognized
as
a
component
of
“Shareholder
servicing
agent
fees”
on
the
Statement
of
Operations,
are
not
charged
to
Class
R6
Shares
and
are
prorated
among
the
other
classes
based
on
their
relative
settled
shares.
Realized
and
unrealized
capital
gains
and
losses
of
the
Funds
are
prorated
among
the
classes
based
on
the
relative
net
assets
of
each
class.
Netting
Agreements:
In
the
ordinary
course
of
business,
the
Funds
may
enter
into
transactions
subject
to
enforceable
master
repurchase
agreements,
International
Swaps
and
Derivatives
Association,
Inc.
(ISDA)
master
agreements
or
other
similar
arrangements
(“netting
agreements”).
Generally,
the
right
to
offset
in
netting
agreements
allows
each
Fund
to
offset
certain
securities
and
derivatives
with
a
specific
counterparty,
when
applicable,
as
well
as
any
collateral
received
or
delivered
to
that
counterparty
based
on
the
terms
of
the
agreements.
Generally,
each
Fund
manages
its
cash
collateral
and
securities
collateral
on
a
counterparty
basis.
With
respect
to
certain
counterparties,
in
accordance
with
the
terms
of
the
netting
agreements,
collateral
posted
to
the
Funds
is
held
in
a
segregated
account
by
the
Funds’
custodian
and/or
with
respect
to
those
amounts
which
can
be
sold
or
repledged,
are
presented
in
the
Funds’
Portfolio
of
Investments
or
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
The
Funds’
investments
subject
to
netting
agreements
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period,
if
any,
are
further
described
later
in
these
Notes
to
Financial
Statements.
New
Accounting
Pronouncement:
In
June
2022,
the
FASB
issued
ASU
2022-03
to
clarify
the
guidance
in
Topic
820,
Fair
Value
Measurement
("Topic
820").
The
amendments
in
ASU
2022-03
affect
all
entities
that
have
investments
in
equity
securities
measured
at
fair
value
that
are
subject
to
a
contractual
sale
restriction.
ASU
2022-03
(1)
clarifies
the
guidance
in
Topic
820,
when
measuring
the
fair
value
of
an
equity
security
subject
to
contractual
restrictions
that
prohibit
the
sale
of
equity
security,
(2)
amends
a
related
illustrative
example,
and
(3)
introduces
new
disclosure
requirements
for
equity
securities
subject
to
contractual
sale
restrictions
that
are
measured
at
fair
value
in
accordance
with
Topic
820.
For
public
business
entities,
the
amendments
in
ASU
2022-03
are
effective
for
fiscal
years
beginning
after
December
15,
2023,
and
interim
periods
within
those
fiscal
years.
For
all
other
entities,
the
amendments
are
effective
for
fiscal
years
beginning
after
December
15,
2024,
and
interim
periods
within
those
fiscal
years.
Early
adoption
is
permitted
for
both
interim
and
annual
financial
statements
that
have
not
yet
been
issued
or
made
available
for
issuance.
During
the
current
fiscal
period,
the
Funds
adopted
the
new
guidance
and
there
was
no
material
impact
to
the
Funds.

Investment
Valuation
and
Fair
Value
Measurements 
The
Funds’
investments
in
securities
are
recorded
at
their
estimated
fair
value
utilizing
valuation
methods
approved
by
the
Adviser,
subject
to
oversight
of
the Board.
Fair
value
is
defined
as
the
price
that
would
be
received
upon
selling
an
investment
or
transferring
a
liability
in
an
orderly
transaction
to
an
independent
buyer
in
the
principal
or
most
advantageous
market
for
the
investment.
U.S.
GAAP
establishes
the
three-tier
hierarchy
which
is
used
to
maximize
the
use
of
observable
market
data
and
minimize
the
use
of
unobservable
inputs
and
to
establish
classification
of
fair
value
measurements
for
disclosure
purposes.
Observable
inputs
reflect
the
assumptions
market
participants
would
use
in
pricing
the
asset
or
liability.
Observable
inputs
are
based
on
market
data
obtained
from
sources
independent
of
the
reporting
entity.
Unobservable
inputs
reflect
management’s
assumptions
about
the
assumptions
market
participants
would
use
in
pricing
the
asset
or
liability.
Unobservable
inputs
are
based
on
the
best
information
available
in
the
circumstances.
The
following
is
a
summary
of
the
three-tiered
hierarchy
of
valuation
input
levels.
Level
1
Inputs
are
unadjusted
and
prices
are
determined
using
quoted
prices
in
active
markets
for
identical
securities.
Level
2
Prices
are
determined
using
other
significant
observable
inputs
(including
quoted
prices
for
similar
securities,
interest
rates,
credit
spreads,
etc.).
Level
3
Prices
are
determined
using
significant
unobservable
inputs
(including
management’s
assumptions
in
determining
the
fair
value
of
investments).
A
description
of
the
valuation
techniques
applied
to
the
Funds’
major
classifications
of
assets
and
liabilities
measured
at
fair
value
follows:
Equity
securities
and
exchange-traded
funds
listed
or
traded
on
a
national
market
or
exchange
are
valued
based
on
their
last
reported sales
price
or
official
closing
price of such
market
or
exchange
on
the
valuation
date.
Foreign
equity
securities
and
registered
investment
companies
that
trade
on
a
foreign
exchange
are
valued
at
the
last
reported sales
price
or
official
closing
price
on
the
principal
exchange
where
traded,
and
converted
to
U.S.
dollars
at
the
prevailing
rates
of
exchange
on
the valuation
date.
For
events affecting
the value
of
foreign
securities
between
the
time
when
the
exchange
on
which
they
are
traded
closes
and
the
time
when
the
Funds'
net
assets
are
calculated,
such
securities
will
be
valued
at
fair
value
in
accordance
with
procedures
adopted
by
the
Adviser,
subject
to
the
oversight
of
the
Board. To
the
extent
these
securities
are
actively
traded
and
no
valuation
adjustments
are
applied,
they
are
generally
classified
as
Level
1. When
valuation
adjustments
are
applied
to
the
most
recent
last
sales
price
or
official
closing
price, these
securities
are
generally
classified
as
Level
2.
Prices
of
certain
American
Depositary
Receipts
(“ADR”)
held
by
the
Funds
that
trade
in
the
United
States
are
valued
based
on
the
last
traded
price,
official
closing
price,
or
an
evaluated
price
provided
by
the
pricing
services and
are
generally
classified
as
Level
1
or
2.
Prices
of
fixed-income
securities
are
generally
provided
by
pricing
services
approved
by
the
Adviser,
which
is
subject
to
review
by
the
Adviser
and
oversight
of
the
Board. Pricing
services
establish
a
security’s
fair
value
using
methods
that
may
include
consideration
of
the
following:
yields
or
prices
of
investments
of
comparable
quality,
type
of
issue,
coupon,
maturity
and
rating,
market
quotes
or
indications
of
value
from
security
dealers,
evaluations
of
anticipated
cash
flows
or
collateral,
general
market
conditions
and
other
information
and
analysis,
including
the
obligor’s
credit
characteristics
considered
relevant.
In
pricing
certain
securities,
particularly
less
liquid
and
lower
quality
securities,
pricing
services
may
consider
information
about
a
security,
its
issuer
or
market
activity
provided
by
the
Adviser.
These
securities
are
generally
classified
as
Level
2.
Repurchase
agreements
are
valued
at
contract
amount
plus
accrued
interest,
which
approximates
market
value.
These
securities
are
generally
classified
as
Level
2.
Investments
in
investment
companies
are
valued
at
their
respective
NAVs
or
share
price on
the
valuation
date
and
are
generally
classified
as
Level
1. 
Futures
contracts
are
valued
using
the
closing
settlement
price
or,
in
the
absence
of
such
a
price,
the
last
traded
price
and
are
generally
classified
as
Level
1.
For
any
portfolio
security
or
derivative
for
which
market
quotations
are
not
readily
available
or
for
which
the
Adviser
deems
the
valuations
derived
using
the
valuation
procedures
described
above
not
to
reflect
fair
value,
the
Adviser
will
determine
a
fair
value
in
good
faith
using
alternative
procedures
approved
by
the
Adviser,
subject
to
the
oversight
of
the
Board.
As
a
general
principle,
the
fair
value
of
a
security
is
the
amount
that
the
owner
might
reasonably
expect
to
receive
for
it
in
a
current
sale.
A
variety
of
factors
may
be
considered
in
determining
the
fair
value
of
such
securities,
which
may
include
consideration
of
the
following:
yields
or
prices
of
investments
of
comparable
quality,
type
of
issue,
coupon,
maturity
and
rating,
market
quotes
or
indications
of
value
from
security
dealers,
evaluations
of
anticipated
cash
flows
or
collateral,
general
market
conditions
and
other
information
and
analysis,
including
the
obligor’s
credit
characteristics
considered
relevant.
To
the
extent
the
inputs
are
observable
and
timely,
the
values
would
be
classified
as
Level
2;
otherwise
they
would
be
classified
as
Level
3.
The
following
table
summarizes
the
market
value
of
the
Funds’
investments
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period,
based
on
the

Portfolio
Securities
Unfunded Commitments:
Pursuant
to
the
terms
of
certain
of
the
variable
rate
senior
loan
agreements,
the
Funds
(except
Flexible
Income
and
Preferred
Securities
and
Income) may
have
unfunded
senior
loan
commitments.
Each
Fund
will
maintain
with
its
custodian,
cash,
liquid
securities
and/or
liquid
senior
loans
having
an
aggregate
value
at
least
equal
to
the
amount
of
unfunded
senior
loan
commitments.
As
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period,
the
Funds’
outstanding
unfunded
senior
loan
commitments
were
as
follows:
Participation
Commitments:
With
respect
to
the
senior
loans
held
in
each
Fund’s
portfolio,
the
Funds
(except
Flexible
Income
and
Preferred
Securities
and
Income)
may:
1)
invest
in
assignments;
2)
act
as
a
participant
in
primary
lending
syndicates;
or
3)
invest
in
participations.
If
a
Fund
purchases
a
participation
of
a
senior
loan
interest,
the
Fund
would
typically
enter
into
a
contractual
agreement
with
the
lender
or
other
third
party
selling
the
participation,
rather
than
directly
with
the
borrower.
As
such,
the
Fund
not
only
assumes
the
credit
risk
of
the
borrower,
but
also
that
of
the
selling
participant
or
other
persons
interpositioned
between
the
Fund
and
the
borrower.
As
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period,
the
Funds
had
no
such
outstanding
participation
commitments.
Securities
Lending:
Each
Fund
may
lend
securities
representing
up
to
one-third
of
the
value
of
its
total
assets
to
broker-dealers,
banks,
and
other
institutions
in
order
to
generate
additional
income.
When
loaning
securities, a
Fund
retains
the
benefits
of
owning
the
securities,
including
the
economic
equivalent
of
dividends
or
interest
generated
by
the
security.
The
loans
are
continuous,
can
be
recalled
at
any
time,
and
have
no
set
maturity.
The
Funds’
custodian,
State
Street
Bank
and
Trust
Company,
serves
as
the
securities
lending
agent
(the
“Agent”).
When
a
Fund
loans
its
portfolio
securities,
it
will
receive,
at
the
inception
of
each
loan,
cash
collateral
equal
to
an
amount
not
less
than
100%
of
the
market
value
of
the
loaned
securities.
The
actual
percentage
of
the
cash
collateral
will
vary
depending
upon
the
asset
type
of
the
loaned
securities.
Collateral
for
the
loaned
securities
is
invested
in
a
government
money
market
vehicle
maintained
by
the
Agent,
which
is
subject
to
the
requirements
of
Rule
2a-7
under
the
1940
Act.
The
value
of
the
loaned
securities
and
the
liability
to
return
the
cash
collateral
received
are
recognized
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
If
the
market
value
of
the
loaned
securities
increases,
the
borrower
must
furnish
additional
collateral
to
the
Fund,
which
is
also
recognized
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
Securities
out
on
loan
are
subject
to
termination
at
any
time
at
the
option
of
the
borrower
or
the
Fund.
Upon
termination,
the
borrower
is
required
to
return
to
the
Fund
securities
identical
to
the
securities
loaned.
During
the
term
of
the
loan,
the
Fund
bears
the
market
risk
with
respect
to
the
investment
of
collateral
and
the
risk
that
the
Agent
may
default
on
its
contractual
obligations
to
the
Fund.
The
Agent
bears
the
risk
that
the
borrower
may
default
on
its
obligation
to
return
the
loaned
securities
as
the
Agent
is
contractually
obligated
to
indemnify
the
Fund
if
at
the
time
of
a
default
by
a
borrower
some
or
all
of
the
loan
securities
have
not
been
returned.
Securities
lending
income
recognized
by
a
Fund
consists
of
earnings
on
invested
collateral
and
lending
fees,
net
of
any
rebates
to
the
borrower
and
compensation
to
the
Agent.
Such
income
is
recognized
on
the
Statement
of
Operations.
As
of
the
end
of
the
current
reporting
period,
the
total
value
of
the
loaned
securities
and
the
total
value
of
collateral
received
were

Repurchase
Agreements:
In
connection
with
transactions
in
repurchase
agreements,
it
is
each
Fund's
policy
that
its
custodian
take
possession
of
the
underlying
collateral
securities,
the
fair
value
of
which
exceeds
the
principal
amount
of
the
repurchase
transaction,
including
accrued
interest,
at
all
times.
If
the
counterparty
defaults,
and
the
fair
value
of
the
collateral
declines,
realization
of
the
collateral
may
be
delayed
or
limited.
The
following
table
presents
the
repurchase
agreements
for
the
Funds
that
are
subject
to
netting
agreements
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period,
and
the
collateral
delivered
related
to
those
repurchase
agreements.
Zero
Coupon
Securities:
A
zero
coupon
security
does
not
pay
a
regular
interest
coupon
to
its
holders
during
the
life
of
the
security.
Income
to
the
holder
of
the
security
comes
from
accretion
of
the
difference
between
the
original
purchase
price
of
the
security
at
issuance
and
the
par
value
of
the
security
at
maturity
and
is
effectively
paid
at
maturity.
The
market
prices
of
zero
coupon
securities
generally
are
more
volatile
than
the
market
prices
of
securities
that
pay
interest
periodically.
Purchases
and
Sales:
Long-term
purchases
and
sales during
the
current fiscal
period
were
as
follows:
The
Funds
may
purchase
securities
on
a
when-issued
or
delayed-delivery
basis.
Securities
purchased
on
a
when-issued
or
delayed-delivery
basis
may
have
extended
settlement
periods;
interest
income
is
not
accrued
until
settlement
date.
Any
securities
so
purchased
are
subject
to
market
fluctuation
during
this
period. If
a
Fund
has
outstanding
when-issued/delayed-delivery
purchases
commitments
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period,
such
amounts
are
recognized
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
5.
Derivative
Investments
Each
Fund
is
authorized
to
invest
in
certain
derivative
instruments.
As
defined
by
U.S.
GAAP,
a
derivative
is
a
financial
instrument
whose
value
is
derived
from
an
underlying
security
price,
foreign
exchange
rate,
interest
rate,
index
of
prices
or
rates,
or
other
variables.
Investments
in
derivatives
as
of
the
end
of
and/or
during
the
current
fiscal
period,
if
any,
are
included
within
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities
and
the
Statement
of
Operations,
respectively.
Credit
Default
Swap
Contracts:
A
Fund
may
enter
into
a
credit
default
swap
contract
to
seek
to
maintain
a
total
return
on
a
particular
investment
or
portion
of
its
portfolio,
or
to
take
an
active
long
or
short
position
with
respect
to
the
likelihood
of
a
particular
issuer’s
default.
During
the
current
fiscal
period,
Strategic
Income
used
credit
default
swap
index
contracts
to
reduce
the
credit
risk
of
its
high
yield
bond
exposure.
Credit
default
swap
contracts
involve
one
party
making
a
stream
of
payments
(buyer
of
protection)
to
another
party
(seller
of
protection)
in
exchange
for
the
right
to
receive
a
specified
return
if/when
there
is
a
credit
event
by
a
third

can
be
settled
either
directly
with
the
counterparty
(“OTC”)
or
through
a

For
OTC
swaps,
the

Futures
Contracts:
During
the
current
fiscal
period,
Credit

and
Preferred
Securities
and
Income
used
U.S.
Treasury
futures
as
part
of
their

exposure.
Strategic
Income
used
U.S.

futures
and
Secured
Overnight
Financing
Rate
futures
as
part
of
an
overall
portfolio
construction
strategy
to
manage
portfolio
duration
and
yield
curve
exposure.
A
futures
contract
is
an
agreement
between
two
parties
to
buy
and
sell
a
financial
instrument
for
a
set
price
on
a
future
date.
Upon
execution
of
a
futures
contract,
the
Fund
is
obligated
to
deposit
cash
or
eligible
securities,
also
known
as
“initial
margin,”
into
an
account
at
its
clearing
broker
equal
to
a
specified
percentage
of
the
contract
amount.
Securities
deposited
for
initial
margin,
if
any,
are
identified
in

Portfolio
of
Investments
and
cash
deposited
for
initial
margin,
if
any,
is
reflected
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
During
the
period
the
futures
contract
is
open,
changes
in
the
market
value
of
the
contract
are
recognized
as
an
unrealized
gain
or
loss
by
“marking-
to-market”
on
a
daily
basis.
The
Fund
and
the
clearing
broker
are
obligated
to
settle
monies
on
a
daily
basis
representing
the
changes
in
the
value
of
the
contracts.
These
daily
cash
settlements
are
known
as
“variation
margin”
and
is
recognized
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities
as
a
receivable
or
payable
for
variation
margin
on
futures
contracts.
When
the
contract
is
closed
or
expired,
the
Fund
records
a
realized
gain
or
loss
equal
to
the
difference
between
the
value
of
the
contract
on
the
closing
date
and
value
of
the
contract
when
originally
entered
into.
The
net
realized
gain
or
loss
and
the
change
in
unrealized
appreciation
(depreciation)
on
futures
contracts
held
during
the
period
is
included
on
the
Statement
of
Operations.
Risks
of
investments
in
futures
contracts
include
the
possible
adverse
movement
in
the
price
of
the
securities
or
indices
underlying
the
contracts,
the
possibility
that
there
may
not
be
a
liquid
secondary
market
for
the
contracts
and/or
that
a
change
in
the
value
of
the
contract
may
not
correlate
with
a
change
in
the
value
of
the
underlying
securities
or
indices.
The

During
the
current
fiscal
period,
the
effect
of
derivative
contracts
on
the
Funds'
Statement
of
Operations
was
as
follows:
Market
and
Counterparty
Credit
Risk:
In
the
normal
course
of
business
each
Fund
may
invest
in
financial
instruments
and
enter
into
financial
transactions
where
risk
of
potential
loss
exists
due
to
changes
in
the
market
(market
risk)
or
failure
of
the
other
party
to
the
transaction
to
perform
(counterparty
credit
risk).
The
potential
loss
could
exceed
the
value
of
the
financial
assets
recorded
on
the
financial
statements.
Financial
assets,
which
potentially
expose
each
Fund
to
counterparty
credit
risk,
consist
principally
of
cash
due
from
counterparties
on
forward,
option
and
swap
transactions,
when
applicable.
The
extent
of
each
Fund’s
exposure
to
counterparty
credit
risk
in
respect
to
these
financial
assets
approximates
their
carrying
value
as
recorded
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
Each
Fund
helps
manage
counterparty
credit
risk
by
entering
into
agreements
only
with
counterparties
the
Adviser
believes
have
the
financial
resources
to
honor
their
obligations
and
by
having
the
Adviser
monitor
the
financial
stability
of
the
counterparties.
Additionally,
counterparties
may
be
required
to
pledge
collateral
daily
(based
on
the
daily
valuation
of
the
financial
asset)
on
behalf
of
each
Fund
with
a
value
approximately
equal
to
the
amount
of
any
unrealized
gain
above
a
pre-determined
threshold.
Reciprocally,
when
each
Fund
has
an
unrealized
loss,
the
Funds
have
instructed
the
custodian
to
pledge
assets
of
the
Funds
as
collateral
with
a
value
approximately
equal
to
the
amount
of
the
unrealized
loss
above
a
pre-determined
threshold.
Collateral
pledges
are
monitored
and
subsequently
adjusted
if
and
when
the
valuations
fluctuate,
either
up
or
down,
by
at
least
the
pre-determined
threshold
amount.

Income
Tax
Information
Each
Fund
is
a
separate
taxpayer
for
federal
income
tax
purposes.
Each
Fund
intends
to
distribute
substantially
all
of
its
net
investment
income
and
net
capital
gains
to
shareholders
and
otherwise
comply
with
the
requirements
of
Subchapter
M
of
the
Internal
Revenue
Code
applicable
to
regulated
investment
companies.
Therefore,
no
federal
income
tax
provision
is
required.
Each
Fund
files
income
tax
returns
in
U.S.
federal
and
applicable
state
and
local
jurisdictions.
A
Fund's
federal
income
tax
returns
are
generally
subject
to
examination
for
a
period
of
three
fiscal
years
after
being
filed.
State
and
local
tax
returns
may
be
subject
to
examination
for
an
additional
period
of
time
depending
on
the
jurisdiction.
Management
has
analyzed
each
Fund's
tax
positions
taken
for
all
open
tax
years
and
has
concluded
that
no
provision
for
income
tax
is
required
in
the
Fund's
financial
statements.

Management
Fees
and

Transactions
with
Affiliates
Management
Fees:
Each
Fund’s
management
fee
compensates
the
Adviser
for
the
overall
investment
advisory
and
administrative
services
and
general
office
facilities.
The
Sub-Adviser
is
compensated
for
its
services
to
the
Funds
from
the
management
fees
paid
to
the
Adviser.
Each
Fund’s
management
fee
consists
of
two
components
a
fund-level
fee,
based
only
on
the
amount
of
assets
within
each
individual
Fund,
and
a
complex-level
fee,
based
on
the
aggregate
amount
of
all
eligible
fund
assets
managed
by
the
Adviser.
This
pricing
structure
enables
each
Fund’s
shareholders
to
benefit
from
growth
in
the
assets
within
their
respective
Fund
as
well
as
from
growth
in
the
amount
of
complex-wide
assets
managed
by
the
Adviser.

Notes

Financial

(Unaudited)
(continued)
The
annual
fund-level
fee,
payable
monthly,
for
each
Fund
was
calculated
according
to
the
following
schedule:
The
annual
complex-level
fee,
payable
monthly,
for
each
Fund
is
determined
by
taking
the
complex-level
fee
rate,
which
is
based
on
the
aggregate
amount
of
“eligible
assets”
of
all
Nuveen
funds
as
set
forth
in
the
schedule
below,
and
for
Credit
Income
and
Strategic
Income,
making,
as
appropriate,
an
upward
adjustment
to
that
rate
based
upon
the
percentage
of
the
particular
fund’s
assets
that
are
not
“eligible
assets.”
The
complex-level
fee
schedule
for
each
Fund
is
as
follows:
*
The
complex-level
fee
is
calculated
based
upon
the
aggregate
daily
“eligible
assets”
of
all
Nuveen
open-end
and
closed-end
funds.
Eligible
assets
do
not
include
assets
attributable
to
investments
in
other
Nuveen
funds
or
assets
in
excess
of
a
determined
amount
(originally
$2
billion)
added
to
the
Nuveen
fund
complex
in
connection
with
the
Adviser’s
assumption
of
the
management
of
the
former
First
American
Funds
effective
January
1,
2011,
but
do
include
certain
assets
of
certain
Nuveen
funds
that
were
reorganized
into
funds
advised
by
an
affiliate
of
the
Adviser
during
the
2019
calendar
year.
Eligible
assets
include
closed-end
fund
assets
managed
by
the
Adviser
that
are
attributable
to
certain
types
of
leverage.
For
these
purposes,
leverage
includes
the
closed-end
funds’
use
of
preferred
stock
and
borrowings
and
certain
investments
in
the
residual
interest
certificates
(also
called
inverse
floating
rate
securities)
in
tender
option
bond
(TOB)
trusts,
including
the
portion
of
assets
held
by
a
TOB
trust
that
has
been
effectively
financed
by
the
trust’s
issuance
of
floating
rate
securities,
subject
to
an
agreement
by
the
Adviser
as
to
certain
funds
to
limit
the
amount
of
such
assets
for
determining
eligible
assets
in
certain
circumstances.
As
of
February
29,
2024,
the
complex-level
fee
rate
for
each
Fund
was
as
follows:
The
Adviser
has
agreed
to
waive
fees
and/or
reimburse
expenses
(“Expense
Cap”)
of
the
Funds
so
that
the
total
annual
Fund
operating
expenses
(excluding
12b-1
distribution
and/or
service
fees,
interest
expenses,
taxes,
acquired
fund
fees
and
expenses,
fees
incurred
in
acquiring
and
disposing
of
portfolio
securities
and
extraordinary
expenses)
do
not
exceed
the
average
daily
net
assets
of
any
class
of
Fund
shares
in
the
amounts
and
for
the
time
periods
stated
in
the
following
table.
However,
because
Class
R6
Shares
are
not
subject
to
sub-transfer
agent
and
similar
fees,
the
total
annual
fund
operating
expense
for
the
Class
R6
Shares
will
be
less
than
the
expense
limitation.
The
temporary
expense
limitations
may
be
terminated
or
modified
prior
to
expiration
date
only
with
the
approval
of
the
Board.
The
expense
limitations
in
effect
thereafter
may
be
terminated
or
modified
only
with
the
approval
of
shareholders
of
each
Fund.

Borrowing
Arrangements
Committed
Line
of
Credit:
The
Funds,
along
with
certain
other
funds
managed
by
the
Adviser
(“Participating
Funds”),
have
established
a
364-day,
$2.700
billion
standby
credit
facility
with
a
group
of
lenders,
under
which
the
Participating
Funds
may
borrow
for
temporary
purposes
(other
than
on-
going
leveraging
for
investment
purposes).
Each
Participating
Fund
is
allocated
a
designated
proportion
of
the
facility’s
capacity
(and
its
associated
costs,
as
described
below)
based
upon
a
multi-factor
assessment
of
the
likelihood
and
frequency
of
its
need
to
draw
on
the
facility,
the
size
of
the
Fund
and
its
anticipated
draws,
and
the
potential
importance
of
such
draws
to
the
operations
and
well-being
of
the
Fund,
relative
to
those
of
the
other
Funds.
A
Fund
may
effect
draws
on
the
facility
in
excess
of
its
designated
capacity
if
and
to
the
extent
that
other
Participating
Funds
have
undrawn
capacity.
The
current
credit
facility
was
entered
into
on
June
21,
2023
expiring
on
June
19,
2024,
replacing
the
previous
facility,
which
expired
in June
2023.
The
credit
facility
has
the
following
terms:
0.15%
per
annum
on
unused
commitment
amounts
and
a
drawn
interest
rate
equal
to
the
higher
of
(a)
OBFR
(Overnight
Bank
Funding
Rate)
plus
1.20%
per
annum
or
(b)
the
Fed
Funds
Effective
Rate
plus
1.20%
per
annum
on
amounts
borrowed.
The
Participating
Funds
also
incurred
a
0.05%
upfront
fee
on
the
increased
commitments
from
select
lenders.
Interest
expense
incurred
by
the
Participating
Funds,
when
applicable,
is
recognized
as
a
component
of
“Interest
expense”
on
the
Statement
of
Operations.
Participating
Funds
paid
administration,
legal
and
arrangement
fees,
which
are
recognized
as
a
component
of
“Interest
expense”
on
the
Statement
of
Operations,
and
along
with
commitment
fees,
have
been
allocated
among
such
Participating
Funds
based
upon
the
relative
proportions
of
the
facility’s
aggregate
capacity
reserved
for
them
and
other
factors
deemed
relevant
by
the
Adviser
and
the
Board
of
each
Participating
Fund.
During
the
current

value
and
income
payments
are
derived
from
and
collateralized
by
a
specific
pool
of
underlying
assets.
The
pool
of
assets
typically
is
a
group
of
small
and/or
illiquid
assets
that
may
be
difficult
to
sell
individually.
The

from
credit
cards,
auto
loans
or
mortgage
loans.

period.
It
expresses
the
return
that
would
have
been
necessary
each
year

actual
cumulative
performance
(including
change
in
NAV
or
offer
price
and
reinvested
dividends
and
capital
gains
distributions,
if
any)
over
the
time
period
being
considered.
Basis
Point:
One
one-hundredth
of
one
percentage
point,
or
0.01%.
For
example,
25
basis
points
equals
0.25%.
Beta:
A
measure
of
the
variability
of
the
change
in
the
share
price
for
a
fund
in
relation
to
a
change
in
the
value
of
the
fund’s
market
benchmark.
Securities
with
betas
higher
than
1.0
have
been,
and
are
expected
to
be,
more
volatile
than
the
benchmark;
securities
with
betas
lower
than
1.0
have
been,
and

benchmark.
Commercial
Mortgage-Backed
Securities
(CMBS):
Commercial
mortgage-backed
securities
are
backed
by
cash
flows
of
a
mortgage
or
pool
of
mortgages
on
commercial
real
estate.
CMBS
generally
are
structured
to
provide
protection
to
the
senior
class
investors
against
potential
losses
on
the
underlying
mortgage
loans.
CMBS
are
typically
characterized
by
the
following:
i)
loans
on
multi-family
housing,
non-residential
property,
ii)
payments
based
on
the
amortization
schedule
of
25-30
years
with
a
balloon
payment
due
usually
after
10
years,
and
iii)
restrictions
on
prepayments.
Contingent
Capital
Securities
(
CoCos
):
CoCos
are
debt
or
capital
securities
of
primarily
non-U.S.
issuers
with
loss
absorption
contingency
mechanisms
built
into
the
terms
of
the
security,
for
example
a
mandatory
conversion
into
common
stock
of
the
issuer,
or
a
principal
write-down,
which
if
triggered
would
likely
cause
the
CoCo
investment
to
lose
value.
Loss
absorption
mechanisms
would
become
effective
upon
the
occurrence
of
a
specified
contingency
event,
or
at
the
discretion
of
a
regulatory
body.
Specified
contingency
events,
as
identified
in
the
CoCo’s
governing
documents,
usually
reference
a
decline
in
the
issuer’s
capital
below
a
specified
threshold
level,
and/or
certain
regulatory
events.
A
loss
absorption
contingency
event
for
CoCos
would
likely
be
the
result
of,
or
related
to,
the
deterioration
of
the
issuer’s
financial
condition
and/or
its
status
as
a
going
concern.
In
such
a
case,
with
respect
to
CoCos
that
provide
for
conversion
into
common
stock
upon
the
occurrence
of
the
contingency
event,
the
market
price
of
the
issuer’s
common
stock
received
by
the
Acquiring
Fund
will
have
likely
declined,
perhaps
substantially,
and
may
continue
to
decline
after
conversion.
CoCos
rated
below
investment
grade
should
be
considered
high
yield
securities,
or
“junk,”
but
often
are
issued
by
entities
whose
more
senior
securities
are
rated
investment
grade.
CoCos
are
a
relatively
new
type
of
security;
and
there
is
a
risk
that
CoCo
security
issuers
may
suffer
the
sort
of
future
financial
distress
that
could
materially
increase
the
likelihood
(or
the
market’s
perception
of
the
likelihood)
that
an
automatic
write-down
or
conversion
event
on
those
issuers’
CoCos
will
occur.
Additionally,
the
trading
behavior
of
a
given
issuer’s
CoCo
may
be
strongly
impacted
by
the
trading
behavior
of
other
issuers’
CoCos,
such
that
negative
information
from
an
unrelated
CoCo
security
may
cause
a
decline
in
value
of
one
or
more
CoCos
held
by
the
Fund.
Accordingly,
the
trading
behavior
of
CoCos
may
not
follow
the
trading
behavior
of
other
types
of
debt
and
preferred
securities.
Despite
these
concerns,
the
prospective
reward
vs.
risk
characteristics
of
at
least
certain
CoCos
may
be
very
attractive
relative
to
other
fixed-income
alternatives.
Duration:
Duration
is
a
measure
of
the
expected
period
over
which
a
bond’s
principal
and
interest
will
be
paid,
and
consequently
is
a
measure
of
the
sensitivity
of
a
bond’s
(or
bond
fund’s)
value
to
changes
when
market
interest
rates
change.
Generally,
the
longer
a
bond
or
fund’s
duration,
the
more
the
price
of
the
bond
or
fund
will
change
as
interest
rates
change.
Hybrid
Security:
A
hybrid
security
combines
two
or
more
different
financial
instruments.
A
hybrid
security
generally
combines
both
debt
and
equity
characteristics.
Mortgage-Backed
Securities
(MBS):
Mortgage-backed
securities
(MBS)
are
bonds
backed
by
pools
of
mortgages,
usually
with
similar
characteristics,
and
which
return
principal
and
interest
in
each
payment.
MBS
are
composed
of
139
residential
mortgages
(RMBS)
or
commercial
mortgages
(CMBS).
RMBS
are
further
divided
into
agency
RMBS
and
non-
agency
RMBS,
depending
on
the
issuer.
Net
Asset
Value
(NAV)
Per
Share:
A
fund’s
Net
Assets
is
equal
to
its
total
assets
(securities,
cash
and
accrued
earnings)
less
its
total
liabilities.
For
funds
with
multiple
classes,
Net
Assets
are
determined
separately
for
each
share
class.
NAV
per
share
is
equal
to
the
fund’s
(or
share
class’)
Net
Assets
divided
by
its
number
of
shares
outstanding.
Option-adjusted
spread
(OAS):
The
option-adjusted
spread
(OAS)
for
a
fixed-income
security
is
the
amount
of
yield
that
would
need
to
be
added
to
each
of
the
discount
rates
used
to
value
each
of
the
security’s
cash
flows
(typically
based
on
the
yields
of
U.S.
Treasury
securities)
so
that
the
sum
of
the
discounted
value
of
all
of
the
security’s
cash
flows
matches
its
market
price,
using
a
dynamic
pricing
model
that
takes
into
account
any
embedded
options,
such
as
call
features,
applicable
to
the
security.
Tax
Equalization:
The
practice
of
treating
a
portion
of
the
distribution
made
to
a
redeeming
shareholder,
which
represents
their
proportionate
part
of
undistributed
net
investment
income
and
capital
gain
as
a
distribution
for
tax
purposes.
Such
amounts
are
referred
to
as
the
equalization
debits
(or
payments)
and
will
be
considered
a
distribution
to
the
shareholder
of
net
investment
income
and
capital
gain
for
calculation
of
the
Fund’s
dividends
paid
deduction.
Zero
Coupon
Bond:
A
zero
coupon
bond
does
not
pay
a
regular
interest
coupon
to
its
holders
during
the
life
of
the
bond.
Income
to
the
holder
of
the
bond
comes
from
accretion
of
the
difference
between
the
original
purchase
price
of
the
bond
at
issuance
and
the
par
value
of
the
bond
at
maturity
and
is
effectively
paid
at
maturity.
The
market
prices
of
zero
coupon
bonds
generally
are
more
volatile
than
the
market
prices
of
bonds
that
pay
interest
periodically.

Liquidity
Risk
Management
Program
(Unaudited)
Discussion
of
the
operation
and
effectiveness
of
the
Funds’
liquidity
risk
management
program
In
compliance
with
Rule
22e-4
under
the
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940,
as
amended
(the
“Liquidity
Rule”),
each
Fund
covered
in
this
Report
(the
“Funds”)
has
adopted
and
implemented
a
liquidity
risk
management
program
(the
“Program”),
which
is
designed
to
manage
the
Fund’s
liquidity
risk.
The
Program
consists
of
various
protocols
for
assessing
and
managing
each
Fund’s
liquidity
risk.
The
Funds’
Board
of
Directors/Trustees
previously
designated
Nuveen
Fund
Advisors,
LLC,
the
Funds’
investment
adviser,
as
the
Administrator
of
the
Program.
The
adviser’s
Liquidity
Monitoring
and
Analysis
Team
(“LMAT”)
carries
out
day-to-day
Program
management
with
oversight
by
the
adviser’s
Liquidity
Oversight
Sub-Committee
(the
LOSC”).
The
LOSC
is
composed
of
personnel
from
the
adviser
and
Teachers
Advisors,
LLC,
an
affiliate
of
the
adviser.
At
a
May
23-25,
2023
meeting
of
the
Board,
the
Administrator
provided
the
Board
with
a
written
report
addressing
the
Program’s
operation,
adequacy
and
effectiveness
of
implementation
for
calendar
year
2022
(the
“Review
Period”),
as
required
und
er
the
Liquidity
Rule.
The
report
noted
that
the
Program
has
been
and
continues
to
be
adequately
and
effectively
implemented
to
monitor
and
(as
applicable)
respond
to
each
Fund’s
liquidity
developments.
In
accordance
with
the
Program,
the
LMAT
assesses
each
Fund’s
liquidity
risk
no
less
frequently
than
annually
based
on
various
factors,
such
as
(1)
the
Fund’s
investment
strategy
and
the
liquidity
of
portfolio
investments,
(ii)
cash
flow
projections,
and
(ii)
holdings
of
cash
and
cash
equivalents,
borrowing
arrangements,
and
other
funding
sources.
Certain
factors
are
considered
under
both
normal
and
reasonably
foreseeable
stressed
conditions.
Each
Fund
portfolio
investment
is
classified
into
one
of
four
liquidity
categories
(including
the
most
liquid,
“Highly
Liquid”,
and
the
least
liquid,
“lliquid”,
discussed
below),
The
classification
is
based
on
a
determination
of
how
long
it
is
reasonably
expected
to
take
to
convert
the
investment
into
cash,
or
sell
or
dispose
of
the
investment,
in
current
market
conditions
without
significantly
changing
the
market
value
of
the
investment
Liquidity
classification
determinations
take
into
account
various
market,
trading,
and
investment-specific
considerations,
as
well
as
market
depth,
and
use
third-
party
vendor
data.
Any
Fund
that
does
not
primarily
hold
highly
liquid
investments
must,
among
other
things,
determine
a
minimum
percentage
of
Fund
assets
that
must
be
invested
in
highly
liquid
investments
(a
“Highly
Liquid
Investment
Minimum”).
During
the
Review
Period,
Nuveen
Floating
Rate
Fund
determined
that
it
would
hold
a
minimum
of
10%
of
its
assets
in
highly
liquid
investments,
and
it
maintained
at
least
that
amount
during
the
Review
Period.
Similarly
during
the
Review
Period,
Nuveen
High
Yield
Income
Fund
determined
that
it
would
hold
a
minimum
of
20%
of
its
assets
in
highly
liquid
investments,
and
it
maintained
at
least
that
amount
during
the
review
period.
All
of
the
other
Funds
in
this
Report
primarily
held
Highly
Liquid
investments
and
therefore
was
exempt
from
the
requirement
to
adopt
a
Highly
Liquid
Investment
Minimum
and
to
comply
with
the
related
requirements
under
the
Liquidity
Rule.
The
Liquidity
Rule
also
limits
a
Fund’s
investments
in
Illiquid
investments.
Specifically,
the
Liquidity
Rule
prohibits
a
Fund
from
acquiring
Illiquid
investments
if
doing
so
would
result
in
the
Fund
holding
more
than
15%
of
its
net
assets
in
illiquid
investments,
and
requires
certain
reporting
to
the
Fund
Board
and
the
Securities
and
Exchange
Commission
any
time
a
Fund’s
holdings
of
Illiquid
investments
exceeds
15%
of
net
assets.
During
the
Review
Period,
no
Fund
exceeded
the
15%
limit
on
Illiquid
investments.
