Item 4.

Principal Accountant Fees and Services.

TIAA-CREF Funds

The following tables show the amount of fees that PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”), the independent registered public accounting firm, billed to the Registrant during the Registrant’s last two full fiscal years. The Audit Committee approved in advance all audit services and non-audit services that PwC provided to the Registrant, except for those non-audit services that were subject to the pre-approval exception under Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X (the “pre-approval exception”). The pre-approval exception for services provided directly to the Registrant waives the pre-approval requirement for services other than audit, review or attest services if: (A) the aggregate amount of all such services provided constitutes no more than 5% of the total amount of revenues paid by the Registrant during the fiscal year in which the services are provided; (B) the Registrant did not recognize the services as non-audit services at the time of the engagement; and (C) the services are promptly brought to the Audit Committee’s attention, and the Committee (or its delegate) approves the services before the audit is completed.

The Audit Committee has delegated certain pre-approval responsibilities to its Chair.

“Audit Fees” are the aggregate fees billed for professional services for the audit of the Registrant’s annual financial statements and services provided in connection with statutory and regulatory filings.

“Audit-Related Fees” are the aggregate fees billed for assurance and related services reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of financial statements that are not reported under “Audit Fees”.

3

“Tax Fees” are the aggregate fees billed for professional services for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning.

4

“All Other Fees” are the aggregate fees billed for products and services other than “Audit Fees”, “Audit-Related Fees” and “Tax Fees”.

SERVICES THAT THE REGISTRANT’S INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

BILLED TO THE ADVISER AND AFFILIATED REGISTRANT SERVICE PROVIDERS

The following tables show the amount of fees billed by PwC to Teachers Advisors, LLC (the “Adviser”), and any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Adviser that provides ongoing services to the Registrant (“Affiliated Fund Service Provider”), for engagements directly related to the Registrant’s operations and financial reporting, during the Registrant’s last two full fiscal years.

The tables also show the percentage of fees subject to the pre-approval exception. The pre-approval exception for services provided to the Adviser and any Affiliated Fund Service Provider (other than audit, review or attest services) waives the pre-approval requirement if: (A) the aggregate amount of all such services provided constitutes no more than 5% of the total amount of revenues paid by the Registrant, the Adviser and Affiliated Fund Service Providers during the fiscal year in which the services are provided that would have to be pre-approved by the Audit Committee; (B) the Registrant did not recognize the services as non-audit services at the


time of the engagement; and (C) the services are promptly brought to the Audit Committee’s attention, and the Committee (or its delegate) approves the services before the Registrant’s audit is completed.

NON-AUDIT SERVICES

The following table shows the amount of fees that PwC billed during the Registrant’s last two full fiscal years for non-audit services. The Audit Committee is required to pre-approve non-audit services that the Registrant’s independent registered public accounting firm provides to the Adviser and any Affiliated Fund Service Provider, if the engagement related directly to the Registrant’s operations and financial reporting (except for those subject to the pre-approval exception described above). The Audit Committee requested and received information from PwC about any non-audit services rendered during the Registrant’s last fiscal year to the Adviser and any Affiliated Fund Service Provider. The Committee considered this information in evaluating PwC’s independence.

Less than 50 percent of the hours expended on the independent registered public accounting firm’s engagement to audit the Registrant’s financial statements for the most recent fiscal year were attributed to work performed by persons other than the independent registered public accounting firm’s full-time, permanent employees.

Generally, the Audit Committee must approve (i) all non-audit services to be performed for the Registrant by the Registrant’s independent registered public accounting firm and (ii) all audit and non-audit services to be performed by the Registrant’s independent registered public accounting firm for the Affiliated Fund Service Providers with respect to the operations and financial reporting of the Registrant.

Opinions on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments, of each of the funds listed in the

financial highlights for each of the periods indicated in the table below1 (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the
financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds listed in the table below as of May 31, 2026,
the results of each of their operations, the changes in each of their net assets, and each of the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated in
the table below, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinions
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial
statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States)
(PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules
and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or
fraud.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud,
and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned
as of May 31, 2026 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent and brokers. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinions.

Notes to Financial Statements
1. General Information
Trust and Fund Information:
TIAA-CREF Funds (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 (“1940 Act”), as amended. The Trust is comprised of the following (collectively the “Funds” or
individually, the “Fund”), among others:
Current Fiscal Period:
The end of the reporting period for the Funds is May 31, 2026, and the period covered by these Notes to
Financial Statements is the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026 while the period for Lifecycle 2070 is the period September 30, 2025
(commencement of operations) through May 31, 2026 (the "current fiscal period”).
Investment Adviser:
Teachers Advisors, LLC (the “Adviser”), a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Teachers Insurance and Annuity
Association of America (“TIAA”), is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as an investment adviser and
provides investment management services for the Funds.
Share Classes and Sales Charges:
Each Fund is a “fund of funds” that diversifies its assets by investing in Class W, Class I or Class
R6 shares of other Nuveen mutual funds and potentially other investment pools or investment products including other funds or
exchange-traded funds ("ETFs") advised by the Adviser or its affiliates. The Funds offer Class A (Lifecycle Retirement Income only),
Class I, Premier Class, Class R6 and Retirement Class shares. Each class differs by the allocation of class-specific expenses and
voting rights in matters affecting a single class. The Funds offer their shares through their principal underwriter, Nuveen Securities,
LLC (“Nuveen Securities”), which is a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of TIAA.
Class A Shares are generally sold with an up-front sales charge. Class A Shares purchases of $1 million or more are sold with
respect to the Retirement Income Fund at net asset value (“NAV”) without an up-front sales charge but may be subject to a
contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") of 1% if redeemed within eighteen months of purchase. Class I, Premier Class, Class R6
and Retirement Class shares are sold without an up-front sales charge.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), which may require the use of estimates made by management and the evaluation of subsequent
events. Actual results may differ from those estimates. The Funds are investment companies and follow the accounting guidance
in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification 946, Financial Services — Investment
Companies. The NAV for financial reporting purposes may differ from the NAV for processing security and common share 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:
The Funds pay the members of the Board of Trustees ("Board") all of whom are independent, certain remuneration
for their services, plus travel and other expenses. The Board has adopted a deferred compensation plan for independent trustees
that enables 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. Amounts deferred are retained by the Funds until paid. Amounts payable to the trustees for
compensation are included separately in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Trustees’ fees, including any deferred
compensation incurred, are reflected in the Statement of Operations.
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.

Indemnifications:
 Under the Trust's organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities
arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Trust enters into
contracts that provide general indemnifications to other parties. The Trust's maximum exposure under these arrangements is
unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Trust that have not yet occurred. However, the 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.
Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and includes accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums. Dividend income
is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Realized gains and losses on securities transactions are based upon the specific identification
method. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or capital gains are recorded as a reduction of cost of
investments and/or as a realized gain. The Funds estimate the components of distributions received that may be considered return
of capital distributions or capital gain distributions. 
Multiclass Operations and Allocations:
Income, expenses, realized gains and losses and unrealized appreciation and depreciation of
a Fund are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class of shares, except for service agreement fees, distribution fees and transfer
agency fees and expenses, which are unique to each class of shares. Most expenses of the Trust can be directly attributed to a
Fund. Expenses that cannot be directly attributed are allocated to each Fund in the Trust based upon the average net assets of each
Fund.
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 current fiscal period, if any, are further described later in
these Notes to Financial Statements.
Segment Reporting:
 Each Fund represents a single operating segment. The officers of the Funds act as the chief operating decision
maker (“CODM”), as defined in U.S. GAAP. The CODM monitors the operating results of each Fund as a whole and is responsible
for each Fund's long-term strategic asset allocation in accordance with the terms of its prospectus, based on a defined investment
strategy which is executed by the Fund's portfolio managers as a team. The financial information in the form of the Fund's portfolio
composition, total returns, expense ratios and changes in net assets (i.e., changes in net assets resulting from operations,
subscriptions and redemptions), which are used by the CODM to assess the segment’s performance versus the Fund's comparative
benchmarks and to make resource allocation decisions for the Fund's single segment, is consistent with that presented within
the Fund's financial statements. Segment assets are reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as “total assets” and
significant segment revenues and expenses are listed on the Statement of Operations.
New Accounting Pronouncement (ASU No. 2023-09):
In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") No.
2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) Improvements to Income tax disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). The primary purpose of the
amendments within ASU 2023-09 is to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures primarily related
to the rate reconciliation table and income taxes paid information. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 are effective for annual periods
beginning after December 15, 2024. During the current fiscal period, the Funds adopted the new guidance. See Note 7 for more
income tax information.
New Accounting Pronouncement (ASU No. 2025-11):
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic
270) Narrow Scope Improvements (“ASU 2025-11”). The amendments in ASU 2025-11 provide a comprehensive list of interim
disclosures that are required by U.S. GAAP. ASU 2025-11 also includes a disclosure principle that requires entities to disclose events
since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. The amendments in ASU 2025-11 are
effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted
for all entities. Management is currently evaluating the implications of these changes on the financial statements.

3. 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 the 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 that 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:
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. To the extent these securities are actively traded and no
valuation adjustments are applied, they are generally classified as Level 1.
Investments in investment companies are valued at their respective NAVs or share price on the valuation date and are generally
classified as Level 1.
Repurchase agreements are valued at contract amount plus accrued interest, which approximates market value. These securities are
generally classified as Level 2.
Investments in unregistered limited partnerships are measured at fair value as of the valuation date using the NAV per share practical
expedient and are not classified within the fair value hierarchy.
The following table summarizes the market value of the Funds’ investments, and the fair value of certain other assets and liabilities,
when applicable, as of the end of the current fiscal period, based on the inputs used to value them:

4. Portfolio Securities
Repurchase Agreements:
In connection with transactions in repurchase agreements, it is the 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 current fiscal period, and the collateral delivered related to those repurchase agreements.

Real Property Fund ("RPF"):
The Funds invest in the RPF, which is an affiliated real estate limited partnership. The RPF is an
unregistered open-end fund that intends to invest in direct real estate holdings and may invest a portion of its assets in REIT
securities, mortgage related securitization and money market instruments in accordance with exemptive relief received from the SEC.
The Funds are not liable for the debts of the RPF beyond the amounts the Funds have contributed. The Funds can redeem from RPF
daily subject to certain approvals. Investments in the RPF are illiquid and the Funds may be unable to dispose of such investments
at opportune times. As such, this investment has been designated as restricted and the value is reflected in the Portfolio of
Investments.
As a restricted security, RPF may not be sold except in exempt transactions or in a public offering registered under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended. The risk of investing in such securities is generally greater than the risk of investing in securities that are
widely held and publicly traded.
Purchases and Sales:
 Long-term purchases and sales during the current fiscal period were as follows:
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.
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.

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.
Differences between amounts for financial statement and federal income tax purposes are primarily due to timing differences
in recognizing gains and losses on investment transactions. Temporary differences do not require reclassification. As of year
end, permanent differences that resulted in reclassifications among the components of net assets relate primarily to distribution
reallocations, investments in partnerships, investments in underlying funds, nondeductible expenses, and tax equalization. Temporary
and permanent differences have no impact on a Fund's net assets.
As of year end, the aggregate cost and the net unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) of all investments for federal income tax
purposes were as follows:
For purposes of this disclosure, tax cost generally includes the cost of portfolio investments as well as up-front fees or premiums
exchanged on derivatives and any amounts unrealized for income statement reporting but realized income and/or capital gains for tax
reporting, if applicable. 
As of year end, the components of accumulated earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

8. Management Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Management Fees:
Under the terms of its Investment Management Agreement, the Adviser is entitled to a fee that is made up of two
components, which are added together to create the total investment management fee. The first component, the asset allocation
fee rate, is an annual rate of 0.10% of the average daily net assets of each Fund. The second component, the Underlying Funds
fee rate, is calculated as follows: for each Underlying Fund of the Trust in which a Fund is invested, the effective Underlying Fund’s
annual investment management fee rate, as determined pursuant to its investment management agreement, net of any fee waivers
or reimbursements applicable to the Underlying Fund (excluding the Class W shares investment management fee waiver and/or
reimbursement), in proportion to the percentage of the Fund’s net assets invested in the Underlying Fund, applied to the average
daily net assets of the Fund. The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive in full the asset allocation fee rate for each Fund's
management fee through September 30, 2028, unless changed with approval of the Board. In addition, the Adviser has voluntarily
agreed to waive certain amounts of the Underlying Funds fee rate portion of each Fund’s management fee through September
30, 2026. As of the end of the current fiscal period, the Adviser received from the Funds the following effective annual rate as a
percentage of average daily net assets of each Fund:
The Funds have entered into an Administrative Service Agreement with the Adviser under which the Funds pay the Adviser for its
costs in providing certain administrative and compliance services to the Funds. The Adviser has agreed to gradually reduce expenses
allocated to the Funds under the Administrative Services Agreement over a three-year period commencing May 1, 2024. After the
expiration of this three-year period, the Adviser will no longer allocate expenses to the Funds under the Administrative Services
Agreement.

Under the terms of Retirement Class Service Agreements with respect to each Fund, the Retirement Class of the Fund incurs an
annual fee of 0.25% of the daily net assets, payable monthly to TIAA, on behalf of Retirement Class shares of the Fund held by or
through TIAA by its clients, or the Adviser, on behalf of all other Retirement Class shares, for certain administrative costs associated
with the maintenance of Retirement Class shares on retirement plan or other platforms. Substantially all of the Retirement Class
shareholder servicing fees reported on the Statement of Operations are paid to TIAA or the Adviser, respectively, under the Service
Agreements.
Under the terms of a distribution Rule 12b-1 plan, Class A shares of Lifecycle Retirement Income compensates Nuveen Securities for
providing distribution, promotional and/or shareholder services to Class A shares of Lifecycle Retirement Income at the annual rate
of 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to the Fund’s Class A shares. The Premier Class of each Fund is subject to a
distribution Rule 12b-1 plan that compensates Nuveen Securities for providing distribution, promotional and/or shareholder services
to the Premier Class of the Fund at the annual rate of 0.15% of the average daily net assets attributable to the Fund’s Premier Class
shares.
The Adviser has agreed to reimburse each Fund if its total expense ratio (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and
other transactional expenses, acquired fund fees and expenses, extraordinary expenses and the management fees and certain
other expenses originally attributable to Class W shares of the affiliated Nuveen Funds) exceeds 0.00% of average daily net assets
for Class R6 Shares; 0.15% of average daily net assets for Class I Shares; 0.15% of average daily net assets for the Premier Class
shares; 0.25% of average daily net assets for the Retirement Class shares; and 0.25% of average daily net assets for Class A Shares
of Lifecycle Retirement Income. The expense reimbursement arrangements will continue through at least September 30, 2026,
unless changed with approval of the Board.
For Lifecycle 2010, the Adviser has voluntarily agreed to reimburse the Fund 0.080% of each share class's Total Expenses
attributable to Class W shares of the Underlying Funds. This commitment was effective from May 1, 2025, through April 30, 2026,
and was extended on May 1, 2026, through July 31, 2028.
Other Transactions with Affiliates:
The Funds are permitted to purchase or sell securities from or to certain other funds or accounts
managed by the Adviser or by an affiliate of the Adviser (each an, "Affiliated Entity") under specified conditions outlined in procedures
adopted by the Board ("cross-trade"). These procedures have been designed to ensure that any cross-trade of securities by the Fund
from or to an Affiliated Entity by virtue of having a common investment adviser (or affiliated investment adviser), common officer and/
or common trustee complies with Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act. These transactions are affected at the current market price (as

table below (fourteen of the funds constituting TIAA-CREF Funds, hereafter collectively referred to as the "Funds") as of May 31, 2026, the related
statements of operations and of changes in net assets for each of the periods indicated in the table below, including the related notes, and the
financial highlights for each of the periods indicated in the table below (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the
financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds listed in the table below as of May 31, 2026,
the results of each of their operations, the changes in each of their net assets, and each of the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated in
the table below, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinions
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial
statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States)
(PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules
and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or
fraud.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud,
and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as
of May 31, 2026 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent, and broker; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other
auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

Each class differs by the allocation of class-specific expenses and voting rights in matters affecting a single class. The Funds offer
their shares, without a sales load, through their principal underwriter, Nuveen Securities, LLC (“Nuveen Securities”), which is a wholly
owned indirect subsidiary of TIAA.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), which may require the use of estimates made by management and the evaluation of subsequent
events. Actual results may differ from those estimates. The Funds are investment companies and follow the accounting guidance
in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification 946, Financial Services — Investment
Companies. The net asset value ("NAV") for financial reporting purposes may differ from the NAV for processing security and common
share 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:
The Funds pay the members of the Board of Trustees ("Board") all of whom are independent, certain remuneration
for their services, plus travel and other expenses. The Board has adopted a deferred compensation plan for independent trustees
that enables 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. Amounts deferred are retained by the Funds until paid. Amounts payable to the trustees for
compensation are included separately in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Trustees’ fees, including any deferred
compensation incurred, are reflected in the Statement of Operations.
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.
Indemnifications:
 Under the Trust's organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities
arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Trust enters into
contracts that provide general indemnifications to other parties. The Trust's maximum exposure under these arrangements is
unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Trust that have not yet occurred. However, the 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.
Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and includes accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums. Dividend income
is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Realized gains and losses on securities transactions are based upon the specific identification
method. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or capital gains are recorded as a reduction of cost of
investments and/or as a realized gain. The Funds estimate the components of distributions received that may be considered return
of capital distributions or capital gain distributions. 
Multiclass Operations and Allocations:
Income, expenses, realized gains and losses and unrealized appreciation and depreciation of
a Fund are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class of shares, except for service agreement fees, distribution fees and transfer
agency fees and expenses, which are unique to each class of shares. Most expenses of the Trust can be directly attributed to a
Fund. Expenses that cannot be directly attributed are allocated to each Fund in the Trust based upon the average net assets of each
Fund.
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 current fiscal period, if any, are further described later in
these Notes to Financial Statements.
Segment Reporting:
 Each Fund represents a single operating segment. The officers of the Funds act as the chief operating decision
maker (“CODM”), as defined in U.S. GAAP. The CODM monitors the operating results of each Fund as a whole and is responsible
for each Fund's long-term strategic asset allocation in accordance with the terms of its prospectus, based on a defined investment
strategy which is executed by the Fund's portfolio managers as a team. The financial information in the form of the Fund's portfolio
composition, total returns, expense ratios and changes in net assets (i.e., changes in net assets resulting from operations,
subscriptions and redemptions), which are used by the CODM to assess the segment’s performance versus the Fund's comparative
benchmarks and to make resource allocation decisions for the Fund's single segment, is consistent with that presented within
the Fund's financial statements. Segment assets are reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as “total assets” and
significant segment revenues and expenses are listed on the Statement of Operations.
New Accounting Pronouncement (ASU No. 2023-09):
In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") No.
2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) Improvements to Income tax disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). The primary purpose of the
amendments within ASU 2023-09 is to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures primarily related
to the rate reconciliation table and income taxes paid information. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 are effective for annual periods
beginning after December 15, 2024. During the current fiscal period, the Funds adopted the new guidance. See Note 7 for more
income tax information.
New Accounting Pronouncement (ASU No. 2025-11):
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic
270) Narrow Scope Improvements (“ASU 2025-11”). The amendments in ASU 2025-11 provide a comprehensive list of interim
disclosures that are required by U.S. GAAP. ASU 2025-11 also includes a disclosure principle that requires entities to disclose events
since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. The amendments in ASU 2025-11 are
effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted
for all entities. Management is currently evaluating the implications of these changes on the financial statements.
3. 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 the 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 that 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.
Notes to Financial Statements
(continued)
60
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:
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. To the extent these securities are actively traded and no
valuation adjustments are applied, they are generally classified as Level 1.
Investments in investment companies are valued at their respective NAVs or share price on the valuation date and are generally
classified as Level 1.
Repurchase agreements are valued at contract amount plus accrued interest, which approximates market value. These securities are
generally classified as Level 2.
The following table summarizes the market value of the Funds’ investments, and the fair value of certain other assets and liabilities,
when applicable, as of the end of the current fiscal period, based on the inputs used to value them:

4. Portfolio Securities
Repurchase Agreements:
In connection with transactions in repurchase agreements, it is the 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 current fiscal period, and the collateral delivered related to those repurchase agreements.

Purchases and Sales:
 Long-term purchases and sales during the current fiscal period were as follows:
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.
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.

7. 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.
Differences between amounts for financial statement and federal income tax purposes are primarily due to timing differences in
recognizing gains and losses on investment transactions. Temporary differences do not require reclassification. As of year end,
permanent differences that resulted in reclassifications among the components of net assets relate primarily to investments in
underlying funds, nondeductible expenses, and tax equalization. Temporary and permanent differences have no impact on a Fund's
net assets.
As of year end, the aggregate cost and the net unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) of all investments for federal income tax
purposes were as follows:
For purposes of this disclosure, tax cost generally includes the cost of portfolio investments as well as up-front fees or premiums
exchanged on derivatives and any amounts unrealized for income statement reporting but realized income and/or capital gains for tax
reporting, if applicable.

8. Management Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Management Fees:
Under the terms of its Investment Management Agreement, the Adviser is entitled to a fee that is made up of two
components, which are added together to create the total investment management fee. The first component, the asset allocation
fee rate, is an annual rate of 0.10% of the average daily net assets of each Fund. The second component, the Underlying Funds
fee rate, is calculated as follows: for each Underlying Fund of the Trust in which a Fund is invested, the effective Underlying Fund’s
annual investment management fee rate, as determined pursuant to its investment management agreement, net of any fee waivers
or reimbursements applicable to the Underlying Fund (excluding the Class W shares investment management fee waiver and/or
reimbursement), in proportion to the percentage of the Fund’s net assets invested in the Underlying Fund, applied to the average
daily net assets of the Fund. The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive a portion of the asset allocation fee rate for each Fund's
management fee through September 30, 2026, unless changed with the approval of the Board. As of the end of the current fiscal
period, the Adviser received from the Funds the following effective annual rate as a percentage of average daily net assets of each

The Funds have entered into an Administrative Service Agreement with the Adviser under which the Funds pay the Adviser for its
costs in providing certain administrative and compliance services to the Funds. The Adviser has agreed to gradually reduce expenses
allocated to the Funds under the Administrative Services Agreement over a three-year period commencing May 1, 2024. After the
expiration of this three-year period, the Adviser will no longer allocate expenses to the Funds under the Administrative Services
Agreement.
Under the terms of Retirement Class Service Agreements with respect to each Fund, the Retirement Class of the Fund incurs an
annual fee of 0.25% of the daily net assets, payable monthly to TIAA, on behalf of Retirement Class shares of the Fund held by or
through TIAA by its clients, or the Adviser, on behalf of all other Retirement Class shares, for certain administrative costs associated
with the maintenance of Retirement Class shares on retirement plan or other platforms. Substantially all of the Retirement Class
shareholder servicing fees reported on the Statement of Operations are paid to TIAA or the Adviser, respectively, under the Service
Agreements.
Under the terms of a distribution Rule 12b-1 plan, the Premier Class of each Fund compensates Nuveen Securities for providing
distribution, promotional and/or shareholder services to the Premier Class of the Fund at the annual rate of 0.15% of the average
daily net assets attributable to the Fund’s Premier Class shares.
The Adviser has agreed to reimburse each Fund if its total expense ratio (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and
other transactional expenses, acquired fund fees and expenses, extraordinary expenses and the management fees and certain other
expenses originally attributable to Class W shares of the affiliated Nuveen Funds) exceeds the following percentages of average daily
net assets for each class:

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Trustees of TIAA-CREF Funds and Shareholders of Nuveen Lifestyle Income Fund, Nuveen Lifestyle Conservative Fund,
Nuveen Lifestyle Moderate Fund, Nuveen Lifestyle Growth Fund, Nuveen Lifestyle Aggressive Growth Fund and Nuveen Managed
Allocation Fund
Opinions on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments, of Nuveen Lifestyle
Income Fund, Nuveen Lifestyle Conservative Fund, Nuveen Lifestyle Moderate Fund, Nuveen Lifestyle Growth Fund, Nuveen Lifestyle
Aggressive Growth Fund and Nuveen Managed Allocation Fund (six of the funds constituting TIAA-CREF Funds, hereafter collectively
referred to as the "Funds") as of May 31, 2026, the related statements of operations for the year ended May 31, 2026, the
statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended May 31, 2026, including the related notes,
and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended May 31, 2026 (collectively referred to as the “financial
statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the
Funds as of May 31, 2026, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for
each of the two years in the period ended May 31, 2026 and each of the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period
ended May 31, 2026 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinions
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the
Funds’ financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S.
federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require
that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to
error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence
regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our
procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of May 31, 2026 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent and
broker. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

Notes to Financial Statements
1. General Information
Trust and Fund Information:
TIAA-CREF Funds (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 (“1940 Act”), as amended. The Trust is comprised of the following (collectively the “Funds” or
individually, the “Fund”), among others:
Current Fiscal Period:
 The end of the reporting period for the Funds is May 31, 2026, and the period covered by these Notes to
Financial Statements is the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026 (the "current fiscal period").
Investment Adviser:
Teachers Advisors, LLC (the “Adviser”), a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Teachers Insurance and Annuity
Association of America (“TIAA”), is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as an investment adviser and
provides investment management services for the Funds.
Share Classes and Sales Charges:
Each Fund is a “fund of funds” that diversifies its assets by investing in Class I or Class R6 shares
of other Nuveen mutual funds and potentially other investment pools or investment products including other funds or exchange-traded
funds ("ETFs") advised by the Adviser or its affiliates. The Funds offer Class A, Class I, Premier Class, Class R6 and Retirement Class
shares. Each class differs by the allocation of class-specific expenses and voting rights in matters affecting a single class. The Funds
offer their shares through their principal underwriter, Nuveen Securities, LLC (“Nuveen Securities”), which is a wholly owned indirect
subsidiary of TIAA.
Class A Shares are generally sold with an up-front sales charge. Class A Shares purchases of $1 million or more are sold at net
asset value (“NAV”) without an up-front sales charge but may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") of 1% if
redeemed within eighteen months of purchase. Class I, Premier Class, Class R6 and Retirement Class shares are sold without an
up-front sales charge.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), which may require the use of estimates made by management and the evaluation of subsequent
events. Actual results may differ from those estimates. The Funds are investment companies and follow the accounting guidance
in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification 946, Financial Services — Investment
Companies. The NAV for financial reporting purposes may differ from the NAV for processing security and common share 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:
The Funds pay the members of the Board of Trustees ("Board") all of whom are independent, certain remuneration
for their services, plus travel and other expenses. The Board has adopted a deferred compensation plan for independent trustees
that enables 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. Amounts deferred are retained by the Funds until paid. Amounts payable to the trustees for
compensation are included separately in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Trustees’ fees, including any deferred
compensation incurred, are reflected in the Statement of Operations.
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.
Indemnifications:
 Under the Trust's organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities
arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Trust enters into
contracts that provide general indemnifications to other parties. The Trust's maximum exposure under these arrangements is
unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Trust that have not yet occurred. However, the 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.
Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and includes accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums. Dividend income
is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Realized gains and losses on securities transactions are based upon the specific identification
method. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or capital gains are recorded as a reduction of cost of
investments and/or as a realized gain. The Funds estimate the components of distributions received that may be considered return
of capital distributions or capital gain distributions. 
Multiclass Operations and Allocations:
Income, expenses, realized gains and losses and unrealized appreciation and depreciation of
a Fund are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class of shares, except for service agreement fees, distribution fees and transfer
agency fees and expenses, which are unique to each class of shares. Most expenses of the Trust can be directly attributed to a
Fund. Expenses that cannot be directly attributed are allocated to each Fund in the Trust based upon the average net assets of each
Fund.
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 current fiscal period, if any, are further described later in
these Notes to Financial Statements.
Segment Reporting:
 Each Fund represents a single operating segment. The officers of the Funds act as the chief operating decision
maker (“CODM”), as defined in U.S. GAAP. The CODM monitors the operating results of each Fund as a whole and is responsible
for each Fund's long-term strategic asset allocation in accordance with the terms of its prospectus, based on a defined investment
strategy which is executed by the Fund's portfolio managers as a team. The financial information in the form of the Fund's portfolio
composition, total returns, expense ratios and changes in net assets (i.e., changes in net assets resulting from operations,
subscriptions and redemptions), which are used by the CODM to assess the segment’s performance versus the Fund's comparative
benchmarks and to make resource allocation decisions for the Fund's single segment, is consistent with that presented within
the Fund's financial statements. Segment assets are reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as “total assets” and
significant segment revenues and expenses are listed on the Statement of Operations.
New Accounting Pronouncement (ASU No. 2023-09):
In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") No.
2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) Improvements to Income tax disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). The primary purpose of the
amendments within ASU 2023-09 is to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures primarily related
to the rate reconciliation table and income taxes paid information. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 are effective for annual periods
beginning after December 15, 2024. During the current fiscal period, the Funds adopted the new guidance. See Note 7 for more
income tax information.
New Accounting Pronouncement (ASU No. 2025-11):
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic
270) Narrow Scope Improvements (“ASU 2025-11”). The amendments in ASU 2025-11 provide a comprehensive list of interim
disclosures that are required by U.S. GAAP. ASU 2025-11 also includes a disclosure principle that requires entities to disclose events
since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. The amendments in ASU 2025-11 are
effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted
for all entities. Management is currently evaluating the implications of these changes on the financial statements.
3. 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 the 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 that 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:
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. To the extent these securities are actively traded and no
valuation adjustments are applied, they are generally classified as Level 1.
Investments in investment companies are valued at their respective NAVs or share price on the valuation date and are generally
classified as Level 1.
Repurchase agreements are valued at contract amount plus accrued interest, which approximates market value. These securities are
generally classified as Level 2.
The following table summarizes the market value of the Funds’ investments, and the fair value of certain other assets and liabilities,
when applicable, as of the end of the current fiscal period, based on the inputs used to value them:
4. Portfolio Securities
Repurchase Agreements:
In connection with transactions in repurchase agreements, it is the 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 current fiscal period, and the collateral delivered related to those repurchase agreements.

Purchases and Sales:
 Long-term purchases and sales during the current fiscal period were as follows:
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.
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.

7. 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.
Difference between amounts for financial statement and federal income tax purposes are primarily due to timing differences in
recognizing gains and losses on investment transactions. Temporary differences do not require reclassification. As of year end,
permanent differences that resulted in reclassifications among the components of net assets relate primarily to distribution
reallocations, investments in underlying funds, and tax equalization. Temporary and permanent differences have no impact on a
Fund’s net assets.
As of year end, the aggregate cost and the net unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) of all investments for federal income tax
purposes were as follows:
For purposes of this disclosure, tax cost generally includes the cost of portfolio investments as well as up-front fees or premiums
exchanged on derivatives and any amounts unrealized for income statement reporting but realized income and/or capital gains for tax
reporting, if applicable. 
As of year end, the components of accumulated earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Under the terms of its Investment Management Agreement, each Fund (except for Managed Allocation) pays the
Adviser a monthly fee based on the annual rate of 0.10% of the Fund’s average daily net assets for the management of the Fund’s
investment portfolio. The Funds have entered into an Administrative Service Agreement with the Adviser under which the Funds pay
the Adviser for its costs in providing certain administrative and compliance services to the Funds. The Adviser has agreed to gradually
reduce expenses allocated to the Funds under the Administrative Services Agreement over a three-year period commencing May 1,
2024. After the expiration of this three-year period, the Adviser will no longer allocate expenses to the Funds under the Administrative
Services Agreement.
Under the terms of Retirement Class Service Agreements with respect to each Fund, the Retirement Class of the Fund incurs an
annual fee of 0.25% of the daily net assets, payable monthly to TIAA, on behalf of Retirement Class shares of the Fund held by or
through TIAA by its clients, or the Adviser, on behalf of all other Retirement Class shares, for certain administrative costs associated
with the maintenance of Retirement Class shares on retirement plan or other platforms. Substantially all of the Retirement Class
shareholder servicing fees reported on the Statement of Operations are paid to TIAA or the Adviser, respectively, under the Service
Agreements.
Under the terms of a distribution Rule 12b-1 plan, Class A shares of each Fund compensates Nuveen Securities for providing
distribution, promotional and/or shareholder services to Class A shares of the Fund at the annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily
net assets attributable to the Fund’s Class A shares. The Premier Class of each Fund is subject to a distribution Rule 12b-1 plan that
compensates Nuveen Securities for providing distribution, promotional and/or shareholder services to the Premier Class of the Fund
at the annual rate of 0.15% of the average daily net assets attributable to the Fund’s Premier Class shares.
The Adviser has agreed to reimburse each Fund if its total expense ratio (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and other
transactional expenses, acquired fund fees and expenses and extraordinary expenses) exceeds certain percentages. As of the end
of the current fiscal period, the investment management fee and maximum expense amounts (after waivers and reimbursements) are

The Approval Process

At an in-person meeting held on April 28 and 29, 2026 (the “Meeting”), the Board of Trustees (the “Board” and each Trustee, a “Board Member”) of TIAA-CREF Funds (the “Trust”) approved, for each applicable series of the Trust, the renewal of the investment management agreement with Teachers Advisors, LLC (“TAL” or the “Adviser”). The Nuveen fund complex consists of the group of funds advised by TAL (the “TC Funds”), including the Funds, and the group of funds advised by Nuveen Fund Advisors, LLC (“NFAL,” and such funds, the “NFAL Funds”; the TC Funds and the NFAL Funds are collectively referred to as the “Nuveen funds” or the “funds”). TAL and NFAL are affiliates as NFAL is a subsidiary of Nuveen, LLC, the investment management arm of Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America (“TIAA”), and TAL is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of TIAA.

The Board Members are not “interested persons” (as defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”)) and, therefore, the Board is comprised of all disinterested Board Members. References to the Board and the Board Members are interchangeable. Below is a summary of the annual review process the Board undertook related to its most recent renewal of the investment management agreement (each, an “Advisory Agreement”) with respect to each Fund covered by this report that was up for renewal. The Advisory Agreement of the Nuveen Lifecycle 2070 Fund was not up for renewal at the Meeting, and accordingly, the renewal discussion in this Section I would not be applicable to it.

In accordance with applicable law, following up to an initial two-year period, the Board considers the approval of the continuance of each Advisory Agreement on behalf of the applicable Fund on an annual basis. In considering the continuance of each Advisory Agreement, the Board considered information received by it throughout the year as well as materials prepared specifically at the Board’s request for the Board’s evaluation of the Advisory Agreements at the Meeting. The Board Members considered the review of the Advisory Agreements to be an ongoing process. The Board and its committees meet regularly throughout the year, including in executive sessions, providing the Board Members with the opportunity to assess the quality and scope of the various services provided by the Adviser during the year through the written materials, oral presentations and discussions with senior management. The information provided to the Board and/or its committees at these meetings covered a wide range of topics pertinent to the annual consideration of the renewal of the Advisory Agreements, including, but not limited to: (a) the investment performance of the Nuveen funds over various periods and the reasons for any outperformance or underperformance relative to peers and/or benchmarks or other performance metrics (as applicable); (b) strategic priorities for the business of the Adviser, including significant developments impacting the Adviser; (c) product initiatives for various funds; (d) compliance, regulatory and risk management reports, including any initiatives in seeking to strengthen compliance capabilities and controls and to meet regulatory requirements, compliance policies and procedures; (e) other payments to intermediaries, including Rule 12b-1 fees (as applicable); (f) reports on the valuation of securities; (g) periodic investment team presentations; (h) evaluations on fund expenses; (i) trading practices and execution quality of portfolio transactions; and (j) management of distributions.


In addition to the materials and discussions that occurred at prior meetings, the Board, through its independent legal counsel, requested and received extensive materials and information prepared specifically for its review of the Advisory Agreements. The materials provided in conjunction with the Meeting included, among other things, (a) a description of the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Adviser; (b) fund performance over various periods with a focus on funds considered to have met certain challenged performance measurements; (c) the fees and expense ratios of the funds with a focus on funds considered to have certain expense characteristics; (d) a list of management fees; (e) an analysis of advisory fees compared to fees assessed to other types of clients; (f) a review of temporary and/or permanent expense caps and fee waivers (as applicable); (g) a description of portfolio manager compensation; (h) certain profitability and/or financial data; (i) a summary of the investments made in 2025 by the Adviser and/or its affiliates in technology enhancements; and (j) a description of indirect benefits received by the Adviser as a result of its relationships with the funds. The Board also considered information provided by Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”), an independent provider of investment company data, comparing fee and expense levels of each applicable Fund to those of a peer universe and also to a peer group of funds, as well as a description of Broadridge’s methodology in compiling the expense universe and expense group, as applicable.

The information prepared specifically for the annual review supplemented the information provided to the Board and its committees and the evaluations of the Nuveen funds by the Board and its committees during the year. The performance, fee and expense data and other information provided by the Adviser, Broadridge or other service providers were not independently verified by the Board Members. The Board Members employed the accumulated information, knowledge and experience they had gained during their tenure as disinterested Board Members on the Board and its committees in overseeing the applicable Nuveen funds and working with the Adviser in their review of the Advisory Agreements.

As part of their review, the Board Members and independent legal counsel met in executive session on April 17, 2026 (the “April Executive Session”) to review and discuss materials provided in connection with their annual review of the Advisory Agreements. After reviewing this information, the Board Members requested, directly or through independent legal counsel, additional information and received the responses to these follow-up questions and requests. In addition to the April Executive Session, the Board Members met in additional executive sessions prior to and during the Meeting. During the Meeting, the Board Members considered the materials, invited representatives of management to provide additional information and determined that the information provided (whether oral or written) was responsive to their requests.

The Board Members had the benefit of independent legal counsel during the annual review process as well as throughout the year and met with independent legal counsel at various executive sessions without the presence of any Adviser management. In connection with their annual review, the Board Members also received a memorandum from independent legal counsel outlining their fiduciary duties and legal standards in reviewing the Advisory Agreements, including guidance from court cases evaluating advisory fees.

After the discussions and with the background and knowledge described above, the Board Members approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreements on behalf of the applicable Funds for an additional one-year period until May 1, 2027. The Board did not identify any single factor as all-important or controlling, but rather each decision reflected the comprehensive consideration of all the information (written or oral) provided to the Board and its committees throughout the year as well as the materials prepared specifically in connection with the annual review process. The contractual arrangements may reflect the results of prior year(s) of review, negotiation and information provided in connection with the Board’s annual review of the Funds’ advisory arrangements and oversight of the Funds. Each Board Member may have attributed different levels of importance to the various factors and information considered in connection with the annual review process and may have placed different emphasis on the relevant information year to year in light of, among other things, changing market and economic conditions. A summary of the principal factors and information, but not all the factors, the Board considered in deciding to renew the Advisory Agreements is set forth below.

At its in-person meeting held on May 27-28, 2026 (the “May Meeting”), management proposed, among other things, an internal restructuring (the “Restructuring”) pursuant to which TAL would be merged into Nuveen Asset Management, LLC (“NAM”), anticipated to be effective on or about August 1, 2026. In connection with the Restructuring, it was proposed, in relevant part, that NFAL would replace its affiliate, TAL, and become the investment adviser on behalf of the Funds pursuant to investment management agreements with NFAL (the “New Advisory Agreements”), and NAM would become the sub-adviser to the Funds pursuant to new sub-advisory agreements (the “New Sub-Advisory Agreements”). At the May Meeting, the Board approved the New Advisory Agreements and New Sub-Advisory Agreements to continue through July 31, 2027. A discussion of the Board’s approval at the May Meeting of the New Advisory Agreements and New Sub-Advisory Agreements is set forth in Section II below.


A.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services

In evaluating the renewal of the Advisory Agreements at the Meeting, the Board Members received and considered information regarding the nature, extent and quality of the Adviser’s services provided to each respective Fund. The Board considered that the Adviser provides a wide array of management, oversight and other services necessary to manage and operate the Funds. The Board considered the Adviser’s and its affiliates’ dedication of resources, time, people and capital as well as consistent program of improvement and innovation aimed at keeping the Nuveen fund complex relevant and attractive for existing and new investors and meeting the needs of an increasingly complex regulatory environment. In its review of the services provided by the Adviser and its affiliates, the Board considered a description of the staffing levels of the investment and non-investment personnel; the experience and qualifications of key personnel; succession planning and staffing in seeking to help ensure the continuation of services and avoid business disruptions as a result of retirements or departures; business continuity functions which seek to develop and monitor corporate-wide standards and procedures in seeking to help ensure the firm may continue to operate in the event of business disruptions; ongoing investments in the infrastructure and technology in enhancing the services provided to the applicable Nuveen funds; certain financial data of the Adviser and/or TIAA in assessing the financial stability and condition of the Adviser to continue to provide a high level of quality services to the applicable Nuveen funds; and portfolio manager compensation structure in seeking to attract and retain high quality talent.

In its evaluation, the Board considered that the Adviser is responsible for providing investment advisory services and does so directly. In this regard, TAL and its investment teams manage the assets of the portfolios of the applicable Nuveen funds directly, including conducting research, identifying investments and placing orders for the purchase or sale of the portfolio investments for the funds. In evaluating the investment advisory services, the Board and/or its investment committee considered the Adviser’s role, among other things, in monitoring and reporting to the Board on fund performance, market conditions and investment team matters; setting and evaluating investment strategies, including changes to mandates, policies and benchmarks; monitoring and overseeing the performance and investment capabilities of the investment teams and recommending changes thereto as appropriate; monitoring compliance with portfolio guidelines; monitoring and analyzing the trade execution of the funds’ portfolios; and managing valuation matters.

In addition to the portfolio management services provided to the Funds, the Board considered the comprehensive package of non-management services the Adviser and its various teams and affiliates provide to manage and operate the applicable Nuveen funds, including compliance, regulatory, administrative and other services which have expanded over the years as a result of market, regulatory and other developments. Such services include, but are not limited to: distribution management services pursuant to which management seeks to implement distribution policies and set distribution levels consistent with each fund’s product design and positioning; compliance services including establishing and maintaining broad-based compliance policies across the Nuveen fund complex, evaluating the compliance programs of various fund services providers, conducting ongoing risk assessments and testing, monitoring portfolio compliance with investment and regulatory requirements and providing a comprehensive compliance training program; regulatory and regulatory advocacy services, including monitoring regulatory developments that may impact the fund(s), responding to regulatory inquiries and examinations and fulfilling regulatory filing requirements; Board and committee support services, including organizing meetings and coordinating site visits and presentations with affiliated and/or external investment teams and providing reports on a wide range of topics relating to the operations and management of the funds, including strategic initiatives and priorities, fund performance, trade execution, securities lending (as applicable), compliance matters, valuation matters, liquidity and derivatives risk management; oversight services, including establishing and coordinating the services provided by other fund service providers (such as a fund’s custodian, accountant, and transfer agent); and legal support services. The Board considered that certain non-investment and non-distribution services were provided by the Adviser or its affiliates pursuant to a separate administrative agreement; however, such administrative agreement was being phased out over a specified period with the administrative services for the funds to be provided under the respective Advisory Agreements at no additional cost.

Aside from the services provided, the Board considered the financial resources of the Adviser and/or its affiliates and their willingness to make investments to support the funds. The Board considered the funds’ access to a seed capital budget provided by the Adviser and/or its affiliates to support new or existing funds and/or facilitate changes for a respective fund. The Board considered the benefits to shareholders of investing in a fund that is a part of a large fund complex with a variety of investment disciplines, capabilities, and expertise. The Board considered the overall reputation and capabilities of the Adviser and its affiliates and the Adviser’s continuing commitment to provide high quality services.


In its review, the Board also considered the significant risks borne by the Adviser and its affiliates in connection with their services to the Nuveen funds, including entrepreneurial risks in sponsoring and supporting new funds and smaller funds and ongoing risks with managing the funds, such as investment, operational, reputational, regulatory, compliance and litigation risks.

Based on its review, the Board determined, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, that it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the respective Funds under each applicable Advisory Agreement.

 

B.

The Investment Performance of the Funds and the Adviser

The Board, directly or through its Investment Committee, which is comprised of all Board Members, provides oversight of the investment performance process. In evaluating the quality of the services provided by the Adviser, the Board and/or its Investment Committee monitors Fund performance on an ongoing basis, which includes quarterly performance reporting at each of its quarterly meetings with an annual performance review at its February 10-12, 2026 meeting (the “February Meeting”). At the February Meeting, the Board and/or its Investment Committee considered, among other things, Fund performance over the quarter, one-, three- and five-year periods ended December 31, 2025 on an absolute basis and as compared to the performance of comparable funds (the “Performance Peer Group”) and to a benchmark for the prescribed periods. For Funds with multiple share classes, the performance data was based on Class I shares; however, the performance of other share classes was expected to be substantially similar as they invest in the same portfolio of securities, and differences in performance among the classes of a fund generally may be principally attributed to the variations in the expense structures of the share classes. Prior to the Meeting, the Board also received updated Fund performance over various periods ended March 31, 2026.

In its review of relative performance, the Board considered a Fund’s performance relative to its Performance Peer Group, among other things, by evaluating its quartile ranking with the 1st quartile being the most desirable quartile ranking and the 4th quartile being the least desirable. The Board considered, in particular, the performance of funds that met certain screening measurements as determined pursuant to a methodology approved by the Board or additional measurements as determined by management’s investment analysts.

In evaluating performance, the Board considered some of the limitations of the performance data including, in particular, that differences between a Nuveen fund and its Performance Peer Group (if any) and its benchmark (such as with respect to the investment objectives and strategies) may lead to significantly different results. To assist the Board in its review of the comparability of the relative performance, management generally has ranked the relevancy of a Performance Peer Group to the respective fund as low, medium and high. In addition, the Board considered, among other things, that performance data reflects performance over a specified period which may differ significantly depending on the ending dates selected, particularly during periods of market volatility. The Board also considered that shareholders may evaluate performance based on their own respective holding periods which may differ from the performance of the periods reviewed by the Board.

The Board evaluated performance in light of various relevant factors which may include, among other things, general market conditions, issuer-specific information, asset class information, leverage and fund cash flows. From year to year, the Board may place different emphasis on particular performance information given changing circumstances in market and economic conditions. The Board considered that long-term performance could be impacted by even one period of significant outperformance or underperformance and that a single investment theme could disproportionately affect performance. Further, the Board considered that market and economic conditions may significantly impact a fund’s performance, particularly over shorter periods, and such performance may be more reflective of such economic or market events and not necessarily reflective of management skill. Although the Board reviews short-, intermediate- and longer-term performance data, the Board considered that longer periods of performance may reflect full market cycles.

In evaluating performance, the Board focused particular attention on funds with less favorable performance records over various time periods in its discussions with management. Depending on the facts and circumstances, including any differences between the respective fund and its benchmark and/or Performance Peer Group, the Board may be satisfied with a fund’s performance notwithstanding that its performance may be below that of its benchmark and/or peer group for certain periods. With respect to any funds for which the Board has identified as experiencing performance issues, the Board seeks to discuss with the Adviser the reasons for the underperformance and any recommendations to improve performance and to monitor such funds more closely until performance improves.


Additional Fund-specific performance factors for periods ending December 31, 2025 that the Board considered in addition to those described above are set forth below in Section I.F.

With respect to each applicable Fund, on the basis of the Board’s ongoing review of investment performance and all relevant factors, including the relative market conditions during certain reporting periods, the Fund’s investment objective(s) and management’s discussion of performance, the Board concluded that the Fund’s performance supported renewal of the respective Advisory Agreement.

 

C.

Fees, Expenses and Profitability

 1. Fees and Expenses

As part of the annual review, the Board Members considered, among other things, the management fee schedules and the expense reimbursements and/or fee waivers agreed to by the Adviser for the respective Fund (if any). In addition to the management fee arrangements, the Board Members considered a Fund’s operating expense ratio as it more directly reflected a shareholder’s total costs in investing in the respective Fund.

Further, the Board considered that the separate administrative agreement pursuant to which TAL provides the Funds with certain administrative services also began to be phased out over a three-year period beginning on May 1, 2024 with related savings.

The Board also considered comparative fee and expense information prepared by Broadridge, an independent third-party provider of fund data. More specifically, the Board Members generally considered, among other things, each applicable Fund’s management fee rates and net total expense ratio in relation to similar data for a comparable universe of peers (the “Expense Universe”) and a more focused group of comparable peers (the “Expense Group”). With respect to the Broadridge comparative expense data, Broadridge applied Class R6 shares of the Funds. In its review of such comparative fee and expense data, the Board considered, among other things, a Fund’s quartile rankings of its contractual management fee rate, actual management fee rate and net total expense ratio within its Expense Universe and Expense Group (as applicable) with the first quartile representing the most desirable quartile ranking and the fourth quartile representing the least desirable ranking. The Board considered, in particular, each fund with a net total expense ratio that met certain expense screening criteria adopted by the Board when compared to its Expense Universe and Expense Group (if any) and management’s commentary as to the factors contributing to each such fund’s relative net total expense ratio.

In evaluating the fees and expenses of the Nuveen funds and comparative rankings, the Board considered some of the limitations which may reduce some of the value of the comparative data. In particular, although the Board considered the methodology employed by Broadridge to establish its Expense Universe and Expense Group (as applicable), the Board also considered that Broadridge had modified its methodology for open-end funds in 2025 resulting in significant changes to the composition of the Expense Universe and Expense Group (as applicable) and the comparative rankings of the funds from previous periods making comparisons of rankings from prior periods more difficult. In addition, the Board considered that the fee and expense information in the Broadridge report for each fund reflected information for a specific period and that historic asset levels and expenses may differ from current levels, particularly in a period of market volatility.

The Board Members also considered that it can be difficult to compare management fees among funds with peers as there are variations in the services that are included for the fees paid. Further, with respect to the Funds investing in the fee-waived Class W shares of other funds (the “Fund of Funds”), the Board considered that peers in the Expense Universe and Expense Group generally would not reflect the Fund of Funds’ unique fee structure. The Board Members took these limitations and differences into account in considering the comparative peer data.

The Board further considered, in relevant part, a fund’s management fee in light of its performance history with particular focus on any fund identified as having a higher management fee and/or expense ratio compared to peers coupled with experiencing a period of challenged performance.

Additional Fund-specific comparative fee and expense data that the Board considered in addition to that described above is set forth in Section I.F below. Based on its review of the information provided, the Board determined that each Fund’s management fees (as applicable) to the Adviser were reasonable in light of the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Fund.


2. Comparisons with the Fees of Other Clients

In evaluating the appropriateness of fees, the Board also requested and received information concerning the advisory fees and services provided to other clients of the Adviser and/or advisory affiliates which may include, among others: separately managed accounts (“SMAs”), foreign funds (UCITS), other investment companies (as sub-advisers), limited partnerships and collective investment trusts (as applicable). The Board considered certain fee data for these other types of clients managed in a similar manner to certain of the open-end funds compared to the management fee of the applicable fund. The Board considered, among other things, that differences in the breadth of services provided to the funds compared to other types of clients (including the differences in the level of advisory services required of passively managed funds compared to actively managed funds); the expenses the Adviser and its affiliates incur in launching, operating and supporting a fund; the differences in regulatory, disclosure and governance requirements applicable to funds and the infrastructure and activities necessary to support such requirements; the establishment and maintenance of servicing relationships with various service providers for the funds; the differences in investment policies and strategies, investor profiles and account sizes; and other factors all may contribute to the variations in relative fee rates. Further, the Board considered the differences in risks the Adviser incurs, including entrepreneurial, legal and regulatory risks when sponsoring and managing funds compared to serving as adviser to other types of clients or sub-adviser to other funds. The Board concluded that the varying levels of fees were reasonable given the foregoing.

3. Profitability of the Adviser

In considering the costs of services to be provided and profits to be realized by the Adviser from its relationship with the Funds, the Board Members considered a variety of estimated profitability data from various perspectives including, among other things, (a) historical pre-distribution and post-distribution margins over specified periods for the Adviser’s services to the applicable funds; (b) certain profitability data on behalf of the Adviser (as well as the Adviser and NFAL on a combined basis) attributable to servicing all applicable funds for 2025 and 2024; (c) certain profitability data of both the Adviser and NFAL on a combined basis derived from the type of fund in the aggregate (i.e., from the closed-end funds, exchange-traded funds, interval funds and open-end funds) for 2025 and 2024; and (d) certain profitability data of both the Adviser and NFAL on a combined basis provided by asset grouping of Nuveen funds in the aggregate (i.e., from equity, fund of funds, index, municipal bond and taxable fixed income funds). In addition, the Board considered estimated profitability data at the per fund level for the Adviser.

In reviewing the profitability data, the Board Members recognized the subjective nature and difficulty in calculating profitability, particularly on a per fund level. The Board considered that the information is not audited and is based on cost allocation methodologies seeking to allocate various expenses throughout the complex and among the various advisory products. The Board Members considered the allocation methodology used to prepare the profitability data but considered that other valid and reasonable methodologies also could be used and could lead to significantly different profit and loss results.

Further, the Board considered Nuveen’s estimated profitability (pre- and post-distribution margins and pre-tax) from its services to the funds compared to the profitability margins of certain peers. The Board Members, however, considered the inherent limitations of the comparative data given that profitability data is only available from peers which publish publicly available information and may be affected by numerous factors including, among other things, the types of funds a peer manages, its business mix, cost of capital, the assumptions and allocation methodology used in developing its profitability data, and fee waivers and expense reimbursements by the peer(s).

Aside from the foregoing profitability data, the Board also considered the financial condition of TIAA. The Board Members considered certain financial data of TIAA as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. The Board considered the benefit of an investment adviser and its parent with significant resources, particularly during periods of market volatility.

In evaluating the reasonableness of the compensation, the Board Members also considered the indirect benefits the Adviser received that were directly attributable to the management of the applicable funds as discussed in further detail below. Based on its review, the Board was satisfied that the Adviser’s level of profitability from its relationship with the applicable Fund was not unreasonable in light of the nature, extent and quality of services provided.


D.

Economies of Scale and Whether Fee Levels Reflect These Economies of Scale

The Board considered whether there have been economies of scale with respect to the management of the Nuveen funds, whether these economies of scale have been appropriately shared with the funds and whether there is potential for realization of further economies of scale as a fund and/or the complex grows larger. The Board considered the difficulty in measuring economies of scale with any precision but considered the various means the Adviser employs to help share the benefits of economies of scale with the respective funds and their shareholders.

The Board considered the Funds’ advisory fee structure. The Board considered that the Funds do not have breakpoint schedules. The Funds have a unique management fee structure including an asset allocation fee and an underlying fund fee rate.

In addition to the management fee structures, the Board Members also considered the temporary and/or permanent expense caps applicable to a fund (if any) which can provide a protection from an increase in expenses if the assets of the applicable funds decline. In addition, the Board considered the Adviser’s and/or affiliates’ ongoing investments in their business, including investments in various technology initiatives from which the fund complex may benefit as well as ongoing efforts to streamline the product line-up, among other things, to create more scaled funds which may help improve both expense and trading economies for participating funds.

The Board further considered that the scope of services of the Adviser and its affiliates have expanded over time without raising advisory fees to the funds, and this was also a means of sharing economies of scale with the funds and their shareholders.

Based on its review, the Board was satisfied that the current fee arrangements together with the reinvestment in management’s business appropriately shared any economies of scale with shareholders.

 

E.

Indirect Benefits

The Board Members received and considered information regarding various indirect benefits the Adviser or its affiliates may receive as a result of their relationship with the Nuveen funds. These benefits include, among other things, fees paid to affiliates of the Adviser for services as noted below, the sharing of personnel and investment-related infrastructure with other clients of the Adviser and the use of certain funds as investment options for other products offered by the Adviser and/or its affiliates (such as life insurance separate account products, fund of funds or 529 education savings plans).

Further, the funds may pay the Adviser and/or its affiliates for other services, such as distribution. In this regard, the Board Members considered that an affiliate of the Adviser serves as principal underwriter providing distribution and/or shareholder services to the open-end funds for which it may be compensated. To the extent an open-end fund pays 12b-1 fees, the Board Members considered that some of those fees may be retained by the Adviser’s affiliate. In addition, the Board considered that an affiliate of the Adviser received compensation in 2025 for serving as an underwriter on shelf offerings of existing closed-end Nuveen funds and reviewed the amounts paid for such services in 2025 and 2024. With respect to the TC Funds, the Board Members considered that the Adviser or its affiliates were reimbursed for certain costs of administrative services pursuant to an administrative agreement; however, such administrative agreement was being phased out over time.

In addition, the Board Members considered that the Adviser may utilize soft dollar brokerage arrangements attributable to the respective funds to obtain research and other services for any or all of its clients but such costs are reimbursed to the funds.

The Adviser and its affiliates may also benefit from the advisory relationships with the funds in the fund complex to the extent this relationship results in potential investors viewing the TIAA group of companies as a leading retirement plan provider in the academic and non-profit market and a single source for all their financial service needs. The Adviser and/or its affiliates may further benefit to the extent that they have pricing or other information regarding vendors the funds utilize in establishing arrangements with such vendors for other products.

Based on its review, the Board concluded that any indirect benefits received by the Adviser as a result of its relationship with the Funds were reasonable in light of the services provided.

G.

Other Considerations

The Board Members did not identify any single factor discussed previously as all-important or controlling. With respect to each applicable Fund, the Board Members concluded that the terms of the respective Advisory Agreement were reasonable, that the Adviser’s fees were reasonable in light of the services provided to the Fund and that the Advisory Agreement be renewed for an additional one-year period.

 

II.

Subsequent Approvals of Advisory Agreements

The 1940 Act provides, in general terms, that an advisory and sub-advisory agreement may continue in effect for a period of more than two years only so long as the board, including a majority of the disinterested trustees, approves its continuance. During the annual review, management and the Board proposed to reset the annual review schedule for the advisory and sub-advisory agreements (as applicable) of the Nuveen funds to permit the agreements to continue for a one-year period until August 1st the following year as opposed to the existing May 1st annual deadline. In addition to the new review schedule, management also proposed the internal Restructuring pursuant to which TAL would be merged into NAM. In conjunction with the Restructuring, it was proposed that NFAL would become investment adviser to the TC Funds (including the Funds) and NAM would become sub-adviser to the TC Funds (including the Funds) as well as other existing funds currently sub-advised by TAL.


At its May Meeting, with respect to the Funds, the Board approved the New Advisory Agreements and New Sub-Advisory Agreements to continue through July 31, 2027. As part of its review of the foregoing arrangements, the Board, through independent legal counsel, requested and received information regarding, among other things, the Restructuring, its impact on the provision of services and the related New Advisory Agreements and New Sub-Advisory Agreements.

In their review, the Board Members considered that they had recently completed their annual review of the applicable Advisory Agreements at the Meeting and many of the factors considered at the annual review were applicable to their evaluation of the approval of the New Advisory Agreements and New Sub-Advisory Agreements. Similarly, with respect to the Nuveen Lifecycle 2070 Fund, the Board recently approved its Advisory Agreement at a meeting of the Board held on August 4-6, 2025. Accordingly, in evaluating the respective advisory and sub-advisory agreements, the Board Members relied upon their knowledge and experience with the Adviser, NFAL and NAM and considered the information received and their evaluations and conclusions drawn at the annual review. The Board considered management’s representation that the information and materials provided in connection with the annual review of Advisory Agreements at the Meeting remained unchanged in all material respects.

The Board Members also received materials which, among other things, outlined the Restructuring, any anticipated changes in the services provided to the Nuveen funds, any anticipated changes to the fees charged to the Funds under the current Advisory Agreements, any benefits to the Nuveen funds and NFAL as a result of the Restructuring, any material conflicts of interest that may arise for NFAL as a result of the Restructuring, the terms of the New Advisory Agreements and New Sub-Advisory Agreements and any costs associated with the Restructuring.

In evaluating the services to be provided following the Restructuring, the Board considered that the Restructuring was not anticipated to result in (a) any changes to the services provided to the Funds; (b) any changes to the personnel who provide portfolio management services to the Funds; (c) any changes to the investment philosophy, strategies, process or guidelines of the Funds; (d) any changes to the investment, analyst, trading, operational, administrative, legal or compliance resources currently being used with respect to the Funds; (e) any adverse changes to the nature, level or quality of actual investment advisory and other services provided to the Funds under the current agreements; or (f) any changes to the fees charged to the Funds under the current agreements and applicable fee waivers. The Board further considered that there were no anticipated changes to the senior leadership responsible for the overseeing and providing of advisory services to the Funds. The Board considered that TAL has provided administrative services to the Funds pursuant to separate administrative agreements; however, such administrative agreements were being phased out over a three-year period. NFAL will assume the responsibilities for the administrative services until the administrative service agreements are phased out and, thereafter, NFAL and/or its affiliates will continue to provide such services under the respective advisory agreements at no additional cost or under the administrative agreements without allocating expenses to the Funds. The Board considered that there is no anticipated change to the personnel providing services to the Funds as the compliance, operational and portfolio management teams of Nuveen were already consolidated in all material respects with respect to the management of the funds whether a fund was advised by TAL or NFAL. After consideration of the foregoing, the Board Members considered that there would be no diminution of the nature, quality or extent of services provided to the Funds.

The Board considered the terms of the New Advisory Agreements and New Sub-Advisory Agreements and the fees paid thereunder to NFAL and NAM, respectively. The Board considered that the fee rates would not change under the New Advisory Agreements and New Sub-Advisory Agreements and that NFAL would be responsible to pay NAM as the sub-adviser to the Funds under the respective New Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Funds would pay the same compensation rates to NFAL under the New Advisory Agreements as under the current Advisory Agreements with TAL.

In addition, the Board considered the various benefits that the funds may derive from the Restructuring, including from enhanced operational efficiencies and streamlined processes, and a simplified and more transparent advisory relationship pursuant to which the funds would work with a single advisory entity helping to make oversight and governance more efficient. The Board considered that NFAL and its affiliates may also benefit through more operational efficiencies and reduced redundancies and the consolidation of certain services and systems which may lead to cost savings. Other than the benefits noted, the Board considered that management does not believe there are any material conflicts of interest that may arise for Nuveen with respect to the funds as a result of the Restructuring. The Board considered that the costs of the Restructuring would be borne by Nuveen.


The Board Members did not identify any single factor discussed previously as all-important or controlling. The Board Members concluded that the terms of each New Advisory Agreement and New Sub-Advisory Agreement were reasonable, that the fees of each of NFAL and NAM were reasonable in light of the services provided to each Fund and that each New Advisory Agreement and New Sub-Advisory Agreement be approved for a one-year period through July 31, 2027.

The Approval Process

At an in-person meeting held on April 28 and 29, 2026 (the “Meeting”), the Board of Trustees (the “Board” and each Trustee, a “Board Member”) of TIAA-CREF Funds (the “Trust”) approved, for each applicable series of the Trust, the renewal of the investment management agreement with Teachers Advisors, LLC (“TAL” or the “Adviser”). The Nuveen fund complex consists of the group of funds advised by TAL (the “TC Funds”), including the Funds, and the group of funds advised by Nuveen Fund Advisors, LLC (“NFAL,” and such funds, the “NFAL Funds”; the TC Funds and the NFAL Funds are collectively referred to as the “Nuveen funds” or the “funds”). TAL and NFAL are affiliates as NFAL is a subsidiary of Nuveen, LLC, the investment management arm of Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America (“TIAA”), and TAL is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of TIAA.

The Board Members are not “interested persons” (as defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”)) and, therefore, the Board is comprised of all disinterested Board Members. References to the Board and the Board Members are interchangeable. Below is a summary of the annual review process the Board undertook related to its most recent renewal of the investment management agreement (each, an “Advisory Agreement”) with respect to each Fund covered by this report that was up for renewal. The Advisory Agreement of the Nuveen Lifecycle Index 2070 Fund was not up for renewal at the Meeting, and accordingly, the renewal discussion in this Section I would not be applicable to it.

In accordance with applicable law, following up to an initial two-year period, the Board considers the approval of the continuance of each Advisory Agreement on behalf of the applicable Fund on an annual basis. In considering the continuance of each Advisory Agreement, the Board considered information received by it throughout the year as well as materials prepared specifically at the Board’s request for the Board’s evaluation of the Advisory Agreements at the Meeting. The Board Members considered the review of the Advisory Agreements to be an ongoing process. The Board and its committees meet regularly throughout the year, including in executive sessions, providing the Board Members with the opportunity to assess the quality and scope of the various services provided by the Adviser during the year through the written materials, oral presentations and discussions with senior management. The information provided to the Board and/or its committees at these meetings covered a wide range of topics pertinent to the annual consideration of the renewal of the Advisory Agreements, including, but not limited to: (a) the investment performance of the Nuveen funds over various periods and the reasons for any outperformance or underperformance relative to peers and/or benchmarks or other performance metrics (as applicable); (b) strategic priorities for the business of the Adviser, including significant developments impacting the Adviser; (c) product initiatives for various funds; (d) compliance, regulatory and risk management reports, including any initiatives in seeking to strengthen compliance capabilities and controls and to meet regulatory requirements, compliance policies and procedures; (e) other payments to intermediaries, including Rule 12b-1 fees (as applicable); (f) reports on the valuation of securities; (g) periodic investment team presentations; (h) evaluations on fund expenses; (i) trading practices and execution quality of portfolio transactions; and (j) management of distributions.


In addition to the materials and discussions that occurred at prior meetings, the Board, through its independent legal counsel, requested and received extensive materials and information prepared specifically for its review of the Advisory Agreements. The materials provided in conjunction with the Meeting included, among other things, (a) a description of the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Adviser; (b) fund performance over various periods with a focus on funds considered to have met certain challenged performance measurements; (c) the fees and expense ratios of the funds with a focus on funds considered to have certain expense characteristics; (d) a list of management fees; (e) an analysis of advisory fees compared to fees assessed to other types of clients; (f) a review of temporary and/or permanent expense caps and fee waivers (as applicable); (g) a description of portfolio manager compensation; (h) certain profitability and/or financial data; (i) a summary of the investments made in 2025 by the Adviser and/or its affiliates in technology enhancements; and (j) a description of indirect benefits received by the Adviser as a result of its relationships with the funds. The Board also considered information provided by Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”), an independent provider of investment company data, comparing fee and expense levels of each applicable Fund to those of a peer universe and also to a peer group of funds, as well as a description of Broadridge’s methodology in compiling the expense universe and expense group, as applicable.

The information prepared specifically for the annual review supplemented the information provided to the Board and its committees and the evaluations of the Nuveen funds by the Board and its committees during the year. The performance, fee and expense data and other information provided by the Adviser, Broadridge or other service providers were not independently verified by the Board Members. The Board Members employed the accumulated information, knowledge and experience they had gained during their tenure as disinterested Board Members on the Board and its committees in overseeing the applicable Nuveen funds and working with the Adviser in their review of the Advisory Agreements.

As part of their review, the Board Members and independent legal counsel met in executive session on April 17, 2026 (the “April Executive Session”) to review and discuss materials provided in connection with their annual review of the Advisory Agreements. After reviewing this information, the Board Members requested, directly or through independent legal counsel, additional information and received the responses to these follow-up questions and requests. In addition to the April Executive Session, the Board Members met in additional executive sessions prior to and during the Meeting. During the Meeting, the Board Members considered the materials, invited representatives of management to provide additional information and determined that the information provided (whether oral or written) was responsive to their requests.

The Board Members had the benefit of independent legal counsel during the annual review process as well as throughout the year and met with independent legal counsel at various executive sessions without the presence of any Adviser management. In connection with their annual review, the Board Members also received a memorandum from independent legal counsel outlining their fiduciary duties and legal standards in reviewing the Advisory Agreements, including guidance from court cases evaluating advisory fees.

After the discussions and with the background and knowledge described above, the Board Members approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreements on behalf of the applicable Funds for an additional one-year period until May 1, 2027. The Board did not identify any single factor as all-important or controlling, but rather each decision reflected the comprehensive consideration of all the information (written or oral) provided to the Board and its committees throughout the year as well as the materials prepared specifically in connection with the annual review process. The contractual arrangements may reflect the results of prior year(s) of review, negotiation and information provided in connection with the Board’s annual review of the Funds’ advisory arrangements and oversight of the Funds. Each Board Member may have attributed different levels of importance to the various factors and information considered in connection with the annual review process and may have placed different emphasis on the relevant information year to year in light of, among other things, changing market and economic conditions. A summary of the principal factors and information, but not all the factors, the Board considered in deciding to renew the Advisory Agreements is set forth below.

At its in-person meeting held on May 27-28, 2026 (the “May Meeting”), management proposed, among other things, an internal restructuring (the “Restructuring”) pursuant to which TAL would be merged into Nuveen Asset Management, LLC (“NAM”), anticipated to be effective on or about August 1, 2026. In connection with the Restructuring, it was proposed, in relevant part, that NFAL would replace its affiliate, TAL, and become the investment adviser on behalf of the Funds pursuant to investment management agreements with NFAL (the “New Advisory Agreements”), and NAM would become the sub-adviser to the Funds pursuant to new sub-advisory agreements (the “New Sub-Advisory Agreements”). At the May Meeting, the Board approved the New Advisory Agreements and New Sub-Advisory Agreements to continue through July 31, 2027. A discussion of the Board’s approval at the May Meeting of the New Advisory Agreements and New Sub-Advisory Agreements is set forth in Section II below.


A.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services

In evaluating the renewal of the Advisory Agreements at the Meeting, the Board Members received and considered information regarding the nature, extent and quality of the Adviser’s services provided to each respective Fund. The Board considered that the Adviser provides a wide array of management, oversight and other services necessary to manage and operate the Funds. The Board considered the Adviser’s and its affiliates’ dedication of resources, time, people and capital as well as consistent program of improvement and innovation aimed at keeping the Nuveen fund complex relevant and attractive for existing and new investors and meeting the needs of an increasingly complex regulatory environment. In its review of the services provided by the Adviser and its affiliates, the Board considered a description of the staffing levels of the investment and non-investment personnel; the experience and qualifications of key personnel; succession planning and staffing in seeking to help ensure the continuation of services and avoid business disruptions as a result of retirements or departures; business continuity functions which seek to develop and monitor corporate-wide standards and procedures in seeking to help ensure the firm may continue to operate in the event of business disruptions; ongoing investments in the infrastructure and technology in enhancing the services provided to the applicable Nuveen funds; certain financial data of the Adviser and/or TIAA in assessing the financial stability and condition of the Adviser to continue to provide a high level of quality services to the applicable Nuveen funds; and portfolio manager compensation structure in seeking to attract and retain high quality talent.

In its evaluation, the Board considered that the Adviser is responsible for providing investment advisory services and does so directly. In this regard, TAL and its investment teams manage the assets of the portfolios of the applicable Nuveen funds directly, including conducting research, identifying investments and placing orders for the purchase or sale of the portfolio investments for the funds. In evaluating the investment advisory services, the Board and/or its investment committee considered the Adviser’s role, among other things, in monitoring and reporting to the Board on fund performance, market conditions and investment team matters; setting and evaluating investment strategies, including changes to mandates, policies and benchmarks; monitoring and overseeing the performance and investment capabilities of the investment teams and recommending changes thereto as appropriate; monitoring compliance with portfolio guidelines; monitoring and analyzing the trade execution of the funds’ portfolios; and managing valuation matters.

In addition to the portfolio management services provided to the Funds, the Board considered the comprehensive package of non-management services the Adviser and its various teams and affiliates provide to manage and operate the applicable Nuveen funds, including compliance, regulatory, administrative and other services which have expanded over the years as a result of market, regulatory and other developments. Such services include, but are not limited to: distribution management services pursuant to which management seeks to implement distribution policies and set distribution levels consistent with each fund’s product design and positioning; compliance services including establishing and maintaining broad-based compliance policies across the Nuveen fund complex, evaluating the compliance programs of various fund services providers, conducting ongoing risk assessments and testing, monitoring portfolio compliance with investment and regulatory requirements and providing a comprehensive compliance training program; regulatory and regulatory advocacy services, including monitoring regulatory developments that may impact the fund(s), responding to regulatory inquiries and examinations and fulfilling regulatory filing requirements; Board and committee support services, including organizing meetings and coordinating site visits and presentations with affiliated and/or external investment teams and providing reports on a wide range of topics relating to the operations and management of the funds, including strategic initiatives and priorities, fund performance, trade execution, securities lending (as applicable), compliance matters, valuation matters, liquidity and derivatives risk management; oversight services, including establishing and coordinating the services provided by other fund service providers (such as a fund’s custodian, accountant, and transfer agent); and legal support services. The Board considered that certain non-investment and non-distribution services were provided by the Adviser or its affiliates pursuant to a separate administrative agreement; however, such administrative agreement was being phased out over a specified period with the administrative services for the funds to be provided under the respective Advisory Agreements at no additional cost.

Aside from the services provided, the Board considered the financial resources of the Adviser and/or its affiliates and their willingness to make investments to support the funds. The Board considered the funds’ access to a seed capital budget provided by the Adviser and/or its affiliates to support new or existing funds and/or facilitate changes for a respective fund. The Board considered the benefits to shareholders of investing in a fund that is a part of a large fund complex with a variety of investment disciplines, capabilities, and expertise. The Board considered the overall reputation and capabilities of the Adviser and its affiliates and the Adviser’s continuing commitment to provide high quality services.

In its review, the Board also considered the significant risks borne by the Adviser and its affiliates in connection with their services to the Nuveen funds, including entrepreneurial risks in sponsoring and supporting new funds and smaller funds and ongoing risks with managing the funds, such as investment, operational, reputational, regulatory, compliance and litigation risks.


Based on its review, the Board determined, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, that it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the respective Funds under each applicable Advisory Agreement.

 

B.

The Investment Performance of the Funds and the Adviser

The Board, directly or through its Investment Committee, which is comprised of all Board Members, provides oversight of the investment performance process. In evaluating the quality of the services provided by the Adviser, the Board and/or its Investment Committee monitors Fund performance on an ongoing basis, which includes quarterly performance reporting at each of its quarterly meetings with an annual performance review at its February 10-12, 2026 meeting (the “February Meeting”). At the February Meeting, the Board and/or its Investment Committee considered, among other things, Fund performance over the quarter, one-, three- and five-year periods ended December 31, 2025 on an absolute basis and as compared to the performance of comparable funds (the “Performance Peer Group”) and to a benchmark for the prescribed periods. For Funds with multiple share classes, the performance data was based on Class I shares; however, the performance of other share classes was expected to be substantially similar as they invest in the same portfolio of securities, and differences in performance among the classes of a fund generally may be principally attributed to the variations in the expense structures of the share classes. Prior to the Meeting, the Board also received updated Fund performance over various periods ended March 31, 2026.

In its review of relative performance, the Board considered a Fund’s performance relative to its Performance Peer Group, among other things, by evaluating its quartile ranking with the 1st quartile being the most desirable quartile ranking and the 4th quartile being the least desirable. The Board considered, in particular, the performance of funds that met certain screening measurements as determined pursuant to a methodology approved by the Board or additional measurements as determined by management’s investment analysts.

In evaluating performance, the Board considered some of the limitations of the performance data including, in particular, that differences between a Nuveen fund and its Performance Peer Group (if any) and its benchmark (such as with respect to the investment objectives and strategies) may lead to significantly different results. To assist the Board in its review of the comparability of the relative performance, management generally has ranked the relevancy of a Performance Peer Group to the respective fund as low, medium and high. In addition, the Board considered, among other things, that performance data reflects performance over a specified period which may differ significantly depending on the ending dates selected, particularly during periods of market volatility. The Board also considered that shareholders may evaluate performance based on their own respective holding periods which may differ from the performance of the periods reviewed by the Board.

The Board evaluated performance in light of various relevant factors which may include, among other things, general market conditions, issuer-specific information, asset class information, leverage and fund cash flows. From year to year, the Board may place different emphasis on particular performance information given changing circumstances in market and economic conditions. The Board considered that long-term performance could be impacted by even one period of significant outperformance or underperformance and that a single investment theme could disproportionately affect performance. Further, the Board considered that market and economic conditions may significantly impact a fund’s performance, particularly over shorter periods, and such performance may be more reflective of such economic or market events and not necessarily reflective of management skill. Although the Board reviews short-, intermediate- and longer-term performance data, the Board considered that longer periods of performance may reflect full market cycles.

In evaluating performance, the Board focused particular attention on funds with less favorable performance records over various time periods in its discussions with management. Depending on the facts and circumstances, including any differences between the respective fund and its benchmark and/or Performance Peer Group, the Board may be satisfied with a fund’s performance notwithstanding that its performance may be below that of its benchmark and/or peer group for certain periods. With respect to any funds for which the Board has identified as experiencing performance issues, the Board seeks to discuss with the Adviser the reasons for the underperformance and any recommendations to improve performance and to monitor such funds more closely until performance improves.

Additional Fund-specific performance factors for periods ending December 31, 2025 that the Board considered in addition to those described above are set forth below in Section I.F.

With respect to each applicable Fund, on the basis of the Board’s ongoing review of investment performance and all relevant factors, including the relative market conditions during certain reporting periods, the Fund’s investment objective(s) and management’s discussion of performance, the Board concluded that the Fund’s performance supported renewal of the respective Advisory Agreement.

 1. Fees and Expenses

As part of the annual review, the Board Members considered, among other things, the management fee schedules and the expense reimbursements and/or fee waivers agreed to by the Adviser for the respective Fund (if any). In addition to the management fee arrangements, the Board Members considered a Fund’s operating expense ratio as it more directly reflected a shareholder’s total costs in investing in the respective Fund.

Further, the Board considered that the separate administrative agreement pursuant to which TAL provides the Funds with certain administrative services also began to be phased out over a three-year period beginning on May 1, 2024 with related savings.

The Board also considered comparative fee and expense information prepared by Broadridge, an independent third-party provider of fund data. More specifically, the Board Members generally considered, among other things, each applicable Fund’s management fee rates and net total expense ratio in relation to similar data for a comparable universe of peers (the “Expense Universe”) and a more focused group of comparable peers (the “Expense Group”). With respect to the Broadridge comparative expense data, Broadridge applied Class R6 shares of the Funds. In its review of such comparative fee and expense data, the Board considered, among other things, a Fund’s quartile rankings of its contractual management fee rate, actual management fee rate and net total expense ratio within its Expense Universe and Expense Group (as applicable) with the first quartile representing the most desirable quartile ranking and the fourth quartile representing the least desirable ranking. The Board considered, in particular, each fund with a net total expense ratio that met certain expense screening criteria adopted by the Board when compared to its Expense Universe and Expense Group (if any) and management’s commentary as to the factors contributing to each such fund’s relative net total expense ratio.

In evaluating the fees and expenses of the Nuveen funds and comparative rankings, the Board considered some of the limitations which may reduce some of the value of the comparative data. In particular, although the Board considered the methodology employed by Broadridge to establish its Expense Universe and Expense Group (as applicable), the Board also considered that Broadridge had modified its methodology for open-end funds in 2025 resulting in significant changes to the composition of the Expense Universe and Expense Group (as applicable) and the comparative rankings of the funds from previous periods making comparisons of rankings from prior periods more difficult. In addition, the Board considered that the fee and expense information in the Broadridge report for each fund reflected information for a specific period and that historic asset levels and expenses may differ from current levels, particularly in a period of market volatility.

The Board Members also considered that it can be difficult to compare management fees among funds with peers as there are variations in the services that are included for the fees paid. Further, with respect to the Funds investing in the fee-waived Class W shares of other funds (the “Fund of Funds”), the Board considered that peers in the Expense Universe and Expense Group generally would not reflect the Fund of Funds’ unique fee structure. The Board Members took these limitations and differences into account in considering the comparative peer data.

The Board further considered, in relevant part, a fund’s management fee in light of its performance history with particular focus on any fund identified as having a higher management fee and/or expense ratio compared to peers coupled with experiencing a period of challenged performance.

Additional Fund-specific comparative fee and expense data that the Board considered in addition to that described above is set forth in Section I.F below. Based on its review of the information provided, the Board determined that each Fund’s management fees (as applicable) to the Adviser were reasonable in light of the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Fund.


2. Comparisons with the Fees of Other Clients

In evaluating the appropriateness of fees, the Board also requested and received information concerning the advisory fees and services provided to other clients of the Adviser and/or advisory affiliates which may include, among others: separately managed accounts (“SMAs”), foreign funds (UCITS), other investment companies (as sub-advisers), limited partnerships and collective investment trusts (as applicable). The Board considered certain fee data for these other types of clients managed in a similar manner to certain of the open-end funds compared to the management fee of the applicable fund. The Board considered, among other things, that differences in the breadth of services provided to the funds compared to other types of clients (including the differences in the level of advisory services required of passively managed funds compared to actively managed funds); the expenses the Adviser and its affiliates incur in launching, operating and supporting a fund; the differences in regulatory, disclosure and governance requirements applicable to funds and the infrastructure and activities necessary to support such requirements; the establishment and maintenance of servicing relationships with various service providers for the funds; the differences in investment policies and strategies, investor profiles and account sizes; and other factors all may contribute to the variations in relative fee rates. Further, the Board considered the differences in risks the Adviser incurs, including entrepreneurial, legal and regulatory risks when sponsoring and managing funds compared to serving as adviser to other types of clients or sub-adviser to other funds. The Board concluded that the varying levels of fees were reasonable given the foregoing.

3. Profitability of the Adviser

In considering the costs of services to be provided and profits to be realized by the Adviser from its relationship with the Funds, the Board Members considered a variety of estimated profitability data from various perspectives including, among other things, (a) historical pre-distribution and post-distribution margins over specified periods for the Adviser’s services to the applicable funds; (b) certain profitability data on behalf of the Adviser (as well as the Adviser and NFAL on a combined basis) attributable to servicing all applicable funds for 2025 and 2024; (c) certain profitability data of both the Adviser and NFAL on a combined basis derived from the type of fund in the aggregate (i.e., from the closed-end funds, exchange-traded funds, interval funds and open-end funds) for 2025 and 2024; and (d) certain profitability data of both the Adviser and NFAL on a combined basis provided by asset grouping of Nuveen funds in the aggregate (i.e., from equity, fund of funds, index, municipal bond and taxable fixed income funds). In addition, the Board considered estimated profitability data at the per fund level for the Adviser.

In reviewing the profitability data, the Board Members recognized the subjective nature and difficulty in calculating profitability, particularly on a per fund level. The Board considered that the information is not audited and is based on cost allocation methodologies seeking to allocate various expenses throughout the complex and among the various advisory products. The Board Members considered the allocation methodology used to prepare the profitability data but considered that other valid and reasonable methodologies also could be used and could lead to significantly different profit and loss results.

Further, the Board considered Nuveen’s estimated profitability (pre- and post-distribution margins and pre-tax) from its services to the funds compared to the profitability margins of certain peers. The Board Members, however, considered the inherent limitations of the comparative data given that profitability data is only available from peers which publish publicly available information and may be affected by numerous factors including, among other things, the types of funds a peer manages, its business mix, cost of capital, the assumptions and allocation methodology used in developing its profitability data, and fee waivers and expense reimbursements by the peer(s).

Aside from the foregoing profitability data, the Board also considered the financial condition of TIAA. The Board Members considered certain financial data of TIAA as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. The Board considered the benefit of an investment adviser and its parent with significant resources, particularly during periods of market volatility.

In evaluating the reasonableness of the compensation, the Board Members also considered the indirect benefits the Adviser received that were directly attributable to the management of the applicable funds as discussed in further detail below. Based on its review, the Board was satisfied that the Adviser’s level of profitability from its relationship with the applicable Fund was not unreasonable in light of the nature, extent and quality of services provided.


D.

Economies of Scale and Whether Fee Levels Reflect These Economies of Scale

The Board considered whether there have been economies of scale with respect to the management of the Nuveen funds, whether these economies of scale have been appropriately shared with the funds and whether there is potential for realization of further economies of scale as a fund and/or the complex grows larger. The Board considered the difficulty in measuring economies of scale with any precision but considered the various means the Adviser employs to help share the benefits of economies of scale with the respective funds and their shareholders.

The Board considered the Funds’ advisory fee structure. The Board considered that the Funds do not have breakpoint schedules. The Funds have a unique management fee structure including an asset allocation fee and an underlying fund fee rate.

In addition to the management fee structures, the Board Members also considered the temporary and/or permanent expense caps applicable to a fund (if any) which can provide a protection from an increase in expenses if the assets of the applicable funds decline. In addition, the Board considered the Adviser’s and/or affiliates’ ongoing investments in their business, including investments in various technology initiatives from which the fund complex may benefit as well as ongoing efforts to streamline the product line-up, among other things, to create more scaled funds which may help improve both expense and trading economies for participating funds.

The Board further considered that the scope of services of the Adviser and its affiliates have expanded over time without raising advisory fees to the funds, and this was also a means of sharing economies of scale with the funds and their shareholders.

Based on its review, the Board was satisfied that the current fee arrangements together with the reinvestment in management’s business appropriately shared any economies of scale with shareholders.

 

E.

Indirect Benefits

The Board Members received and considered information regarding various indirect benefits the Adviser or its affiliates may receive as a result of their relationship with the Nuveen funds. These benefits include, among other things, fees paid to affiliates of the Adviser for services as noted below, the sharing of personnel and investment-related infrastructure with other clients of the Adviser and the use of certain funds as investment options for other products offered by the Adviser and/or its affiliates (such as life insurance separate account products, fund of funds or 529 education savings plans).

Further, the funds may pay the Adviser and/or its affiliates for other services, such as distribution. In this regard, the Board Members considered that an affiliate of the Adviser serves as principal underwriter providing distribution and/or shareholder services to the open-end funds for which it may be compensated. To the extent an open-end fund pays 12b-1 fees, the Board Members considered that some of those fees may be retained by the Adviser’s affiliate. In addition, the Board considered that an affiliate of the Adviser received compensation in 2025 for serving as an underwriter on shelf offerings of existing closed-end Nuveen funds and reviewed the amounts paid for such services in 2025 and 2024. With respect to the TC Funds, the Board Members considered that the Adviser or its affiliates were reimbursed for certain costs of administrative services pursuant to an administrative agreement; however, such administrative agreement was being phased out over time.

In addition, the Board Members considered that the Adviser may utilize soft dollar brokerage arrangements attributable to the respective funds to obtain research and other services for any or all of its clients but such costs are reimbursed to the funds.

The Adviser and its affiliates may also benefit from the advisory relationships with the funds in the fund complex to the extent this relationship results in potential investors viewing the TIAA group of companies as a leading retirement plan provider in the academic and non-profit market and a single source for all their financial service needs. The Adviser and/or its affiliates may further benefit to the extent that they have pricing or other information regarding vendors the funds utilize in establishing arrangements with such vendors for other products.

Based on its review, the Board concluded that any indirect benefits received by the Adviser as a result of its relationship with the Funds were reasonable in light of the services provided.

G.

Other Considerations

The Board Members did not identify any single factor discussed previously as all-important or controlling. With respect to each applicable Fund, the Board Members concluded that the terms of the respective Advisory Agreement were reasonable, that the Adviser’s fees were reasonable in light of the services provided to the Fund and that the Advisory Agreement be renewed for an additional one-year period.

 

II.

Subsequent Approvals of Advisory Agreements


The 1940 Act provides, in general terms, that an advisory and sub-advisory agreement may continue in effect for a period of more than two years only so long as the board, including a majority of the disinterested trustees, approves its continuance. During the annual review, management and the Board proposed to reset the annual review schedule for the advisory and sub-advisory agreements (as applicable) of the Nuveen funds to permit the agreements to continue for a one-year period until August 1st the following year as opposed to the existing May 1st annual deadline. In addition to the new review schedule, management also proposed the internal Restructuring pursuant to which TAL would be merged into NAM. In conjunction with the Restructuring, it was proposed that NFAL would become investment adviser to the TC Funds (including the Funds) and NAM would become sub-adviser to the TC Funds (including the Funds) as well as other existing funds currently sub-advised by TAL.

At its May Meeting, with respect to the Funds, the Board approved the New Advisory Agreements and New Sub-Advisory Agreements to continue through July 31, 2027. As part of its review of the foregoing arrangements, the Board, through independent legal counsel, requested and received information regarding, among other things, the Restructuring, its impact on the provision of services and the related New Advisory Agreements and New Sub-Advisory Agreements.

In their review, the Board Members considered that they had recently completed their annual review of the applicable Advisory Agreements at the Meeting and many of the factors considered at the annual review were applicable to their evaluation of the approval of the New Advisory Agreements and New Sub-Advisory Agreements. Similarly, with respect to the Nuveen Lifecycle Index 2070 Fund, the Board recently approved its Advisory Agreement at a meeting of the Board held on August 4-6, 2025. Accordingly, in evaluating the respective advisory and sub-advisory agreements, the Board Members relied upon their knowledge and experience with the Adviser, NFAL and NAM and considered the information received and their evaluations and conclusions drawn at the annual review. The Board considered management’s representation that the information and materials provided in connection with the annual review of Advisory Agreements at the Meeting remained unchanged in all material respects.

The Board Members also received materials which, among other things, outlined the Restructuring, any anticipated changes in the services provided to the Nuveen funds, any anticipated changes to the fees charged to the Funds under the current Advisory Agreements, any benefits to the Nuveen funds and NFAL as a result of the Restructuring, any material conflicts of interest that may arise for NFAL as a result of the Restructuring, the terms of the New Advisory Agreements and New Sub-Advisory Agreements and any costs associated with the Restructuring.

In evaluating the services to be provided following the Restructuring, the Board considered that the Restructuring was not anticipated to result in (a) any changes to the services provided to the Funds; (b) any changes to the personnel who provide portfolio management services to the Funds; (c) any changes to the investment philosophy, strategies, process or guidelines of the Funds; (d) any changes to the investment, analyst, trading, operational, administrative, legal or compliance resources currently being used with respect to the Funds; (e) any adverse changes to the nature, level or quality of actual investment advisory and other services provided to the Funds under the current agreements; or (f) any changes to the fees charged to the Funds under the current agreements and applicable fee waivers. The Board further considered that there were no anticipated changes to the senior leadership responsible for the overseeing and providing of advisory services to the Funds. The Board considered that TAL has provided administrative services to the Funds pursuant to separate administrative agreements; however, such administrative agreements were being phased out over a three-year period. NFAL will assume the responsibilities for the administrative services until the administrative service agreements are phased out and, thereafter, NFAL and/or its affiliates will continue to provide such services under the respective advisory agreements at no additional cost or under the administrative agreements without allocating expenses to the Funds. The Board considered that there is no anticipated change to the personnel providing services to the Funds as the compliance, operational and portfolio management teams of Nuveen were already consolidated in all material respects with respect to the management of the funds whether a fund was advised by TAL or NFAL. After consideration of the foregoing, the Board Members considered that there would be no diminution of the nature, quality or extent of services provided to the Funds.

The Board considered the terms of the New Advisory Agreements and New Sub-Advisory Agreements and the fees paid thereunder to NFAL and NAM, respectively. The Board considered that the fee rates would not change under the New Advisory Agreements and New Sub-Advisory Agreements and that NFAL would be responsible to pay NAM as the sub-adviser to the Funds under the respective New Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Funds would pay the same compensation rates to NFAL under the New Advisory Agreements as under the current Advisory Agreements with TAL.


In addition, the Board considered the various benefits that the funds may derive from the Restructuring, including from enhanced operational efficiencies and streamlined processes, and a simplified and more transparent advisory relationship pursuant to which the funds would work with a single advisory entity helping to make oversight and governance more efficient. The Board considered that NFAL and its affiliates may also benefit through more operational efficiencies and reduced redundancies and the consolidation of certain services and systems which may lead to cost savings. Other than the benefits noted, the Board considered that management does not believe there are any material conflicts of interest that may arise for Nuveen with respect to the funds as a result of the Restructuring. The Board considered that the costs of the Restructuring would be borne by Nuveen.

The Board Members did not identify any single factor discussed previously as all-important or controlling. The Board Members concluded that the terms of each New Advisory Agreement and New Sub-Advisory Agreement were reasonable, that the fees of each of NFAL and NAM were reasonable in light of the services provided to each Fund and that each New Advisory Agreement and New Sub-Advisory Agreement be approved for a one-year period through July 31, 2027.

I.

The Approval Process

At an in-person meeting held on April 28 and 29, 2026 (the “Meeting”), the Board of Trustees (the “Board” and each Trustee, a “Board Member”) of TIAA-CREF Funds (the “Trust”) approved, for each applicable series of the Trust, the renewal of the investment management agreement with Teachers Advisors, LLC (“TAL” or the “Adviser”). The Nuveen fund complex consists of the group of funds advised by TAL (the “TC Funds”), including the Funds, and the group of funds advised by Nuveen Fund Advisors, LLC (“NFAL,” and such funds, the “NFAL Funds”; the TC Funds and the NFAL Funds are collectively referred to as the “Nuveen funds” or the “funds”). TAL and NFAL are affiliates as NFAL is a subsidiary of Nuveen, LLC, the investment management arm of Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America (“TIAA”), and TAL is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of TIAA.

The Board Members are not “interested persons” (as defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”)) and, therefore, the Board is comprised of all disinterested Board Members. References to the Board and the Board Members are interchangeable. Below is a summary of the annual review process the Board undertook related to its most recent renewal of the investment management agreement (each, an “Advisory Agreement”) with respect to each Fund covered by this report.

In accordance with applicable law, following up to an initial two-year period, the Board considers the approval of the continuance of each Advisory Agreement on behalf of the applicable Fund on an annual basis. In considering the continuance of each Advisory Agreement, the Board considered information received by it throughout the year as well as materials prepared specifically at the Board’s request for the Board’s evaluation of the Advisory Agreements at the Meeting. The Board Members considered the review of the Advisory Agreements to be an ongoing process. The Board and its committees meet regularly throughout the year, including in executive sessions, providing the Board Members with the opportunity to assess the quality and scope of the various services provided by the Adviser during the year through the written materials, oral presentations and discussions with senior management. The information provided to the Board and/or its committees at these meetings covered a wide range of topics pertinent to the annual consideration of the renewal of the Advisory Agreements, including, but not limited to: (a) the investment performance of the Nuveen funds over various periods and the reasons for any outperformance or underperformance relative to peers and/or benchmarks or other performance metrics (as applicable); (b) strategic priorities for the business of the Adviser, including significant developments impacting the Adviser; (c) product initiatives for various funds; (d) compliance, regulatory and risk management reports, including any initiatives in seeking to strengthen compliance capabilities and controls and to meet regulatory requirements, compliance policies and procedures; (e) other payments to intermediaries, including Rule 12b-1 fees (as applicable); (f) reports on the valuation of securities; (g) periodic investment team presentations; (h) evaluations on fund expenses; (i) trading practices and execution quality of portfolio transactions; and (j) management of distributions.


In addition to the materials and discussions that occurred at prior meetings, the Board, through its independent legal counsel, requested and received extensive materials and information prepared specifically for its review of the Advisory Agreements. The materials provided in conjunction with the Meeting included, among other things, (a) a description of the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Adviser; (b) fund performance over various periods with a focus on funds considered to have met certain challenged performance measurements; (c) the fees and expense ratios of the funds with a focus on funds considered to have certain expense characteristics; (d) a list of management fees; (e) an analysis of advisory fees compared to fees assessed to other types of clients; (f) a review of temporary and/or permanent expense caps and fee waivers (as applicable); (g) a description of portfolio manager compensation; (h) certain profitability and/or financial data; (i) a summary of the investments made in 2025 by the Adviser and/or its affiliates in technology enhancements; and (j) a description of indirect benefits received by the Adviser as a result of its relationships with the funds. The Board also considered information provided by Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”), an independent provider of investment company data, comparing fee and expense levels of each Fund to those of a peer universe and also to a peer group of funds, as well as a description of Broadridge’s methodology in compiling the expense universe and expense group, as applicable.

The information prepared specifically for the annual review supplemented the information provided to the Board and its committees and the evaluations of the Nuveen funds by the Board and its committees during the year. The performance, fee and expense data and other information provided by the Adviser, Broadridge or other service providers were not independently verified by the Board Members. The Board Members employed the accumulated information, knowledge and experience they had gained during their tenure as disinterested Board Members on the Board and its committees in overseeing the applicable Nuveen funds and working with the Adviser in their review of the Advisory Agreements.

As part of their review, the Board Members and independent legal counsel met in executive session on April 17, 2026 (the “April Executive Session”) to review and discuss materials provided in connection with their annual review of the Advisory Agreements. After reviewing this information, the Board Members requested, directly or through independent legal counsel, additional information and received the responses to these follow-up questions and requests. In addition to the April Executive Session, the Board Members met in additional executive sessions prior to and during the Meeting. During the Meeting, the Board Members considered the materials, invited representatives of management to provide additional information and determined that the information provided (whether oral or written) was responsive to their requests.

The Board Members had the benefit of independent legal counsel during the annual review process as well as throughout the year and met with independent legal counsel at various executive sessions without the presence of any Adviser management. In connection with their annual review, the Board Members also received a memorandum from independent legal counsel outlining their fiduciary duties and legal standards in reviewing the Advisory Agreements, including guidance from court cases evaluating advisory fees.

After the discussions and with the background and knowledge described above, the Board Members approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreements on behalf of the Funds for an additional one-year period until May 1, 2027. The Board did not identify any single factor as all-important or controlling, but rather each decision reflected the comprehensive consideration of all the information (written or oral) provided to the Board and its committees throughout the year as well as the materials prepared specifically in connection with the annual review process. The contractual arrangements may reflect the results of prior year(s) of review, negotiation and information provided in connection with the Board’s annual review of the Funds’ advisory arrangements and oversight of the Funds. Each Board Member may have attributed different levels of importance to the various factors and information considered in connection with the annual review process and may have placed different emphasis on the relevant information year to year in light of, among other things, changing market and economic conditions. A summary of the principal factors and information, but not all the factors, the Board considered in deciding to renew the Advisory Agreements is set forth below.

At its in-person meeting held on May 27-28, 2026 (the “May Meeting”), management proposed, among other things, an internal restructuring (the “Restructuring”) pursuant to which TAL would be merged into Nuveen Asset Management, LLC (“NAM”), anticipated to be effective on or about August 1, 2026. In connection with the Restructuring, it was proposed, in relevant part, that NFAL would replace its affiliate, TAL, and become the investment adviser on behalf of the Funds pursuant to investment management agreements with NFAL (the “New Advisory Agreements”), and NAM would become the sub-adviser to the Funds pursuant to new sub-advisory agreements (the “New Sub-Advisory Agreements”). At the May Meeting, the Board approved the New Advisory Agreements and New Sub-Advisory Agreements to continue through July 31, 2027. A discussion of the Board’s approval at the May Meeting of the New Advisory Agreements and New Sub-Advisory Agreements is set forth in Section II below.


A.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services

In evaluating the renewal of the Advisory Agreements at the Meeting, the Board Members received and considered information regarding the nature, extent and quality of the Adviser’s services provided to each respective Fund. The Board considered that the Adviser provides a wide array of management, oversight and other services necessary to manage and operate the Funds. The Board considered the Adviser’s and its affiliates’ dedication of resources, time, people and capital as well as consistent program of improvement and innovation aimed at keeping the Nuveen fund complex relevant and attractive for existing and new investors and meeting the needs of an increasingly complex regulatory environment. In its review of the services provided by the Adviser and its affiliates, the Board considered a description of the staffing levels of the investment and non-investment personnel; the experience and qualifications of key personnel; succession planning and staffing in seeking to help ensure the continuation of services and avoid business disruptions as a result of retirements or departures; business continuity functions which seek to develop and monitor corporate-wide standards and procedures in seeking to help ensure the firm may continue to operate in the event of business disruptions; ongoing investments in the infrastructure and technology in enhancing the services provided to the applicable Nuveen funds; certain financial data of the Adviser and/or TIAA in assessing the financial stability and condition of the Adviser to continue to provide a high level of quality services to the applicable Nuveen funds; and portfolio manager compensation structure in seeking to attract and retain high quality talent.

In its evaluation, the Board considered that the Adviser is responsible for providing investment advisory services and does so directly. In this regard, TAL and its investment teams manage the assets of the portfolios of the applicable Nuveen funds directly, including conducting research, identifying investments and placing orders for the purchase or sale of the portfolio investments for the funds. In evaluating the investment advisory services, the Board and/or its investment committee considered the Adviser’s role, among other things, in monitoring and reporting to the Board on fund performance, market conditions and investment team matters; setting and evaluating investment strategies, including changes to mandates, policies and benchmarks; monitoring and overseeing the performance and investment capabilities of the investment teams and recommending changes thereto as appropriate; monitoring compliance with portfolio guidelines; monitoring and analyzing the trade execution of the funds’ portfolios; and managing valuation matters.

In addition to the portfolio management services provided to the Funds, the Board considered the comprehensive package of non-management services the Adviser and its various teams and affiliates provide to manage and operate the applicable Nuveen funds, including compliance, regulatory, administrative and other services which have expanded over the years as a result of market, regulatory and other developments. Such services include, but are not limited to: distribution management services pursuant to which management seeks to implement distribution policies and set distribution levels consistent with each fund’s product design and positioning; compliance services including establishing and maintaining broad-based compliance policies across the Nuveen fund complex, evaluating the compliance programs of various fund services providers, conducting ongoing risk assessments and testing, monitoring portfolio compliance with investment and regulatory requirements and providing a comprehensive compliance training program; regulatory and regulatory advocacy services, including monitoring regulatory developments that may impact the fund(s), responding to regulatory inquiries and examinations and fulfilling regulatory filing requirements; Board and committee support services, including organizing meetings and coordinating site visits and presentations with affiliated and/or external investment teams and providing reports on a wide range of topics relating to the operations and management of the funds, including strategic initiatives and priorities, fund performance, trade execution, securities lending (as applicable), compliance matters, valuation matters, liquidity and derivatives risk management; oversight services, including establishing and coordinating the services provided by other fund service providers (such as a fund’s custodian, accountant, and transfer agent); and legal support services. The Board considered that certain non-investment and non-distribution services were provided by the Adviser or its affiliates pursuant to a separate administrative agreement; however, such administrative agreement was being phased out over a specified period with the administrative services for the funds to be provided under the respective Advisory Agreements at no additional cost.

Aside from the services provided, the Board considered the financial resources of the Adviser and/or its affiliates and their willingness to make investments to support the funds. The Board considered the funds’ access to a seed capital budget provided by the Adviser and/or its affiliates to support new or existing funds and/or facilitate changes for a respective fund. The Board considered the benefits to shareholders of investing in a fund that is a part of a large fund complex with a variety of investment disciplines, capabilities, and expertise. The Board considered the overall reputation and capabilities of the Adviser and its affiliates and the Adviser’s continuing commitment to provide high quality services.

In its review, the Board also considered the significant risks borne by the Adviser and its affiliates in connection with their services to the Nuveen funds, including entrepreneurial risks in sponsoring and supporting new funds and smaller funds and ongoing risks with managing the funds, such as investment, operational, reputational, regulatory, compliance and litigation risks.


Based on its review, the Board determined, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, that it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the respective Funds under each applicable Advisory Agreement.

 

B.

The Investment Performance of the Funds and the Adviser

The Board, directly or through its Investment Committee, which is comprised of all Board Members, provides oversight of the investment performance process. In evaluating the quality of the services provided by the Adviser, the Board and/or its Investment Committee monitors Fund performance on an ongoing basis, which includes quarterly performance reporting at each of its quarterly meetings with an annual performance review at its February 10-12, 2026 meeting (the “February Meeting”). At the February Meeting, the Board and/or its Investment Committee considered, among other things, Fund performance over the quarter, one-, three- and five-year periods ended December 31, 2025 on an absolute basis and as compared to the performance of comparable funds (the “Performance Peer Group”) and to a benchmark for the prescribed periods. For Funds with multiple share classes, the performance data was based on Class I shares for all Funds (other than Nuveen Managed Allocation Fund) and Class R6 shares for Nuveen Managed Allocation Fund; however, the performance of other share classes was expected to be substantially similar as they invest in the same portfolio of securities, and differences in performance among the classes of a fund generally may be principally attributed to the variations in the expense structures of the share classes. Prior to the Meeting, the Board also received updated Fund performance over various periods ended March 31, 2026. In its review of relative performance, the Board considered a Fund’s performance relative to its Performance Peer Group, among other things, by evaluating its quartile ranking with the 1st quartile being the most desirable quartile ranking and the 4th quartile being the least desirable. The Board considered, in particular, the performance of funds that met certain screening measurements as determined pursuant to a methodology approved by the Board or additional measurements as determined by management’s investment analysts.

In evaluating performance, the Board considered some of the limitations of the performance data including, in particular, that differences between a Nuveen fund and its Performance Peer Group and its benchmark (such as with respect to the investment objectives and strategies) may lead to significantly different results. To assist the Board in its review of the comparability of the relative performance, management generally has ranked the relevancy of a Performance Peer Group to the respective fund as low, medium or high. In addition, the Board considered, among other things, that performance data reflects performance over a specified period which may differ significantly depending on the ending dates selected, particularly during periods of market volatility. The Board also considered that shareholders may evaluate performance based on their own respective holding periods which may differ from the performance of the periods reviewed by the Board.

The Board evaluated performance in light of various relevant factors which may include, among other things, general market conditions, issuer-specific information, asset class information, leverage and fund cash flows. From year to year, the Board may place different emphasis on particular performance information given changing circumstances in market and economic conditions. The Board considered that long-term performance could be impacted by even one period of significant outperformance or underperformance and that a single investment theme could disproportionately affect performance. Further, the Board considered that market and economic conditions may significantly impact a fund’s performance, particularly over shorter periods, and such performance may be more reflective of such economic or market events and not necessarily reflective of management skill. Although the Board reviews short-, intermediate- and longer-term performance data, the Board considered that longer periods of performance may reflect full market cycles.

In evaluating performance, the Board focused particular attention on funds with less favorable performance records over various time periods in its discussions with management. Depending on the facts and circumstances, including any differences between the respective fund and its benchmark and/or Performance Peer Group, the Board may be satisfied with a fund’s performance notwithstanding that its performance may be below that of its benchmark and/or peer group for certain periods. With respect to any funds for which the Board has identified as experiencing performance issues, the Board seeks to discuss with the Adviser the reasons for the underperformance and any recommendations to improve performance and to monitor such funds more closely until performance improves.

Additional Fund-specific performance factors for periods ending December 31, 2025 that the Board considered in addition to those described above are set forth below in Section I.F.


With respect to each Fund, on the basis of the Board’s ongoing review of investment performance and all relevant factors, including the relative market conditions during certain reporting periods, the Fund’s investment objective(s) and management’s discussion of performance, the Board concluded that the Fund’s performance supported renewal of the respective Advisory Agreement.

 

C.

Fees, Expenses and Profitability

 1. Fees and Expenses

As part of the annual review, the Board Members considered, among other things, the management fee schedules and the expense reimbursements and/or fee waivers agreed to by the Adviser for the respective Fund (if any). With respect to Nuveen Managed Allocation Fund, the Board considered that the Adviser does not charge a management fee to such Fund; however, the Adviser may generate indirect earnings with respect to such Fund’s investment in underlying funds also managed by the Adviser. In addition to the management fee arrangements, the Board Members considered a Fund’s operating expense ratio as it more directly reflected a shareholder’s total costs in investing in the respective Fund. Further, the Board considered that the separate administrative agreement pursuant to which the Adviser provides the Funds with certain administrative services also began to be phased out over a three-year period beginning on May 1, 2024 with related savings.

The Board also considered comparative fee and expense information prepared by Broadridge, an independent third-party provider of fund data. More specifically, the Board Members generally considered, among other things, each Fund’s management fee rates and net total expense ratio in relation to similar data for a comparable universe of peers (the “Expense Universe”) and a more focused group of comparable peers (the “Expense Group”). With respect to the Broadridge comparative expense data, Broadridge applied Class A shares for the Nuveen Lifestyle Funds and Class R6 shares for Nuveen Managed Allocation Fund. In its review of such comparative fee and expense data, the Board considered, among other things, a Fund’s quartile rankings of its contractual management fee rate, actual management fee rate and net total expense ratio within its Expense Universe and Expense Group (as applicable) with the first quartile representing the most desirable quartile ranking and the fourth quartile representing the least desirable ranking. The Board considered, in particular, each fund with a net total expense ratio that met certain expense screening criteria adopted by the Board when compared to its Expense Universe and Expense Group (if any) and management’s commentary as to the factors contributing to each such fund’s relative net total expense ratio.

In evaluating the fees and expenses of the Nuveen funds and comparative rankings, the Board considered some of the limitations which may reduce some of the value of the comparative data. In particular, although the Board considered the methodology employed by Broadridge to establish its Expense Universe and Expense Group (as applicable), the Board also considered that Broadridge had modified its methodology for open-end funds in 2025 resulting in significant changes to the composition of the Expense Universe and Expense Group (as applicable) and the comparative rankings of the funds from previous periods making comparisons of rankings from prior periods more difficult. In addition, the Board considered that the fee and expense information in the Broadridge report for each fund reflected information for a specific period and that historic asset levels and expenses may differ from current levels, particularly in a period of market volatility.

The Board Members also considered that it can be difficult to compare management fees among funds with peers as there are variations in the services that are included for the fees paid. The Board Members took these differences into account in considering the comparative peer data.

The Board further considered, in relevant part, a fund’s management fee in light of its performance history with particular focus on any fund identified as having a higher management fee and/or expense ratio compared to peers coupled with experiencing a period of challenged performance.

Additional Fund-specific comparative fee and expense data that the Board considered in addition to that described above is set forth in Section I.F below. Based on its review of the information provided, the Board determined that each Fund’s management fees (as applicable) to the Adviser were reasonable in light of the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Fund.


2. Comparisons with the Fees of Other Clients

In evaluating the appropriateness of fees, the Board also requested and received information concerning the advisory fees and services provided to other clients of the Adviser and/or advisory affiliates which may include, among others: separately managed accounts (“SMAs”), foreign funds (UCITS), other investment companies (as sub-advisers), limited partnerships and collective investment trusts (as applicable). The Board considered certain fee data for these other types of clients managed in a similar manner to certain of the open-end funds compared to the management fee of the applicable fund. The Board considered, among other things, that differences in the breadth of services provided to the funds compared to other types of clients (including the differences in the level of advisory services required of passively managed funds compared to actively managed funds); the expenses the Adviser and its affiliates incur in launching, operating and supporting a fund; the differences in regulatory, disclosure and governance requirements applicable to funds and the infrastructure and activities necessary to support such requirements; the establishment and maintenance of servicing relationships with various service providers for the funds; the differences in investment policies and strategies, investor profiles and account sizes; and other factors all may contribute to the variations in relative fee rates. Further, the Board considered the differences in risks the Adviser incurs, including entrepreneurial, legal and regulatory risks when sponsoring and managing funds compared to serving as adviser to other types of clients or sub-adviser to other funds. As noted, the Board considered that the Adviser does not charge a management fee to Nuveen Managed Allocation Fund under the applicable Advisory Agreement. The Board concluded that the varying levels of fees were reasonable given the foregoing.

3. Profitability of the Adviser

In considering the costs of services to be provided and profits to be realized by the Adviser from its relationship with the Funds, the Board Members considered a variety of estimated profitability data from various perspectives including, among other things, (a) historical pre-distribution and post-distribution margins over specified periods for the Adviser’s services to the applicable funds; (b) certain profitability data on behalf of the Adviser (as well as the Adviser and NFAL on a combined basis) attributable to servicing all applicable funds for 2025 and 2024; (c) certain profitability data of both the Adviser and NFAL on a combined basis derived from the type of fund in the aggregate (i.e., from the closed-end funds, exchange-traded funds, interval funds and open-end funds) for 2025 and 2024; and (d) certain profitability data of both the Adviser and NFAL on a combined basis provided by asset grouping of Nuveen funds in the aggregate (i.e., from equity, fund of funds, index, municipal bond and taxable fixed income funds). In addition, the Board considered estimated profitability data at the per fund level for the Adviser.

In reviewing the profitability data, the Board Members recognized the subjective nature and difficulty in calculating profitability, particularly on a per fund level. The Board considered that the information is not audited and is based on cost allocation methodologies seeking to allocate various expenses throughout the complex and among the various advisory products. The Board Members considered the allocation methodology used to prepare the profitability data but considered that other valid and reasonable methodologies also could be used and could lead to significantly different profit and loss results.

Further, the Board considered Nuveen’s estimated profitability (pre- and post-distribution margins and pre-tax) from its services to the funds compared to the profitability margins of certain peers. The Board Members, however, considered the inherent limitations of the comparative data given that profitability data is only available from peers which publish publicly available information and may be affected by numerous factors including, among other things, the types of funds a peer manages, its business mix, cost of capital, the assumptions and allocation methodology used in developing its profitability data, and fee waivers and expense reimbursements by the peer(s).

Aside from the foregoing profitability data, the Board also considered the financial condition of TIAA. The Board Members considered certain financial data of TIAA as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. The Board considered the benefit of an investment adviser and its parent with significant resources, particularly during periods of market volatility.

In evaluating the reasonableness of the compensation, the Board Members also considered the indirect benefits the Adviser received that were directly attributable to the management of the applicable funds as discussed in further detail below. Based on its review, the Board was satisfied that the Adviser’s level of profitability from its relationship with the applicable Fund was not unreasonable in light of the nature, extent and quality of services provided.


D.

Economies of Scale and Whether Fee Levels Reflect These Economies of Scale

The Board considered whether there have been economies of scale with respect to the management of the Nuveen funds, whether these economies of scale have been appropriately shared with the funds and whether there is potential for realization of further economies of scale as a fund and/or the complex grows larger. The Board considered the difficulty in measuring economies of scale with any precision but considered the various means the Adviser employs to help share the benefits of economies of scale with the respective funds and their shareholders.

The Board considered the Funds’ advisory fee structure. The Board considered that the Funds do not have breakpoint schedules.

In addition to the management fee structures, the Board Members also considered the temporary and/or permanent expense caps applicable to a fund (if any) which can provide a protection from an increase in expenses if the assets of the applicable funds decline. Further, the Board considered the Adviser’s and/or affiliates’ ongoing investments in their business, including investments in various technology initiatives from which the fund complex may benefit as well as ongoing efforts to streamline the product line-up, among other things, to create more scaled funds which may help improve both expense and trading economies for participating funds.

The Board further considered that the scope of services of the Adviser and its affiliates have expanded over time without raising advisory fees to the funds, and this was also a means of sharing economies of scale with the funds and their shareholders.

Based on its review, the Board was satisfied that the current fee arrangements together with the reinvestment in management’s business appropriately shared any economies of scale with shareholders.

 

E.

Indirect Benefits

The Board Members received and considered information regarding various indirect benefits the Adviser or its affiliates may receive as a result of their relationship with the Nuveen funds. These benefits include, among other things, fees paid to affiliates of the Adviser for services as noted below, the sharing of personnel and investment-related infrastructure with other clients of the Adviser and the use of certain funds as investment options for other products offered by the Adviser and/or its affiliates (such as life insurance separate account products, fund of funds or 529 education savings plans).

Further, the funds may pay the Adviser and/or its affiliates for other services, such as distribution. In this regard, the Board Members considered that an affiliate of the Adviser serves as principal underwriter providing distribution and/or shareholder services to the open-end funds for which it may be compensated. To the extent an open-end fund pays 12b-1 fees, the Board Members considered that some of those fees may be retained by the Adviser’s affiliate. In addition, the Board considered that an affiliate of the Adviser received compensation in 2025 for serving as an underwriter on shelf offerings of existing closed-end Nuveen funds and reviewed the amounts paid for such services in 2025 and 2024. With respect to the TC Funds, the Board Members considered that the Adviser or its affiliates were reimbursed for certain costs of administrative services pursuant to an administrative agreement; however, such administrative agreement was being phased out over time.

In addition, the Board Members considered that the Adviser may utilize soft dollar brokerage arrangements attributable to the respective funds to obtain research and other services for any or all of its clients but such costs are reimbursed to the funds.

The Adviser and its affiliates may also benefit from the advisory relationships with the funds in the fund complex to the extent this relationship results in potential investors viewing the TIAA group of companies as a leading retirement plan provider in the academic and non-profit market and a single source for all their financial service needs. The Adviser and/or its affiliates may further benefit to the extent that they have pricing or other information regarding vendors the funds utilize in establishing arrangements with such vendors for other products.

Based on its review, the Board concluded that any indirect benefits received by the Adviser as a result of its relationship with the Funds were reasonable in light of the services provided.

G.

Other Considerations

The Board Members did not identify any single factor discussed previously as all-important or controlling. The Board Members concluded that the terms of each Advisory Agreement were reasonable, that the Adviser’s fees were reasonable in light of the services provided to each Fund and that the Advisory Agreements be renewed for an additional one-year period.

 

II.

Subsequent Approvals of Advisory Agreements

The 1940 Act provides, in general terms, that an advisory and sub-advisory agreement may continue in effect for a period of more than two years only so long as the board, including a majority of the disinterested trustees, approves its continuance. During the annual review, management and the Board proposed to reset the annual review schedule for the advisory and sub-advisory agreements (as applicable) of the Nuveen funds to permit the agreements to continue for a one-year period until August 1st the following year as opposed to the existing May 1st annual deadline. In addition to the new review schedule, management also proposed the internal Restructuring pursuant to which TAL would be merged into NAM. In conjunction with the Restructuring, it was proposed that NFAL would become investment adviser to the TC Funds (including the Funds) and NAM would become sub-adviser to the TC Funds (including the Funds) as well as other existing funds currently sub-advised by TAL.

At its May Meeting, with respect to the Funds, the Board approved the New Advisory Agreements and New Sub-Advisory Agreements to continue through July 31, 2027. As part of its review of the foregoing arrangements, the Board, through independent legal counsel, requested and received information regarding, among other things, the Restructuring, its impact on the provision of services and the related New Advisory Agreements and New Sub-Advisory Agreements.

In their review, the Board Members considered that they had recently completed their annual review of the Advisory Agreements at the Meeting and many of the factors considered at the annual review were applicable to their evaluation of the approval of the New Advisory Agreements and New Sub-Advisory Agreements. Accordingly, in evaluating the respective advisory and sub-advisory agreements, the Board Members relied upon their knowledge and experience with the Adviser, NFAL and NAM and considered the information received and their evaluations and conclusions drawn at the annual review. The Board considered management’s representation that the information and materials provided in connection with the annual review of the Advisory Agreements at the Meeting remained unchanged in all material respects.

The Board Members also received materials which, among other things, outlined the Restructuring, any anticipated changes in the services provided to the Nuveen funds, any anticipated changes to the fees charged to the Funds under the current Advisory Agreements, any benefits to the Nuveen funds and NFAL as a result of the Restructuring, any material conflicts of interest that may arise for NFAL as a result of the Restructuring, the terms of the New Advisory Agreements and New Sub-Advisory Agreements and any costs associated with the Restructuring.


In evaluating the services to be provided following the Restructuring, the Board considered that the Restructuring was not anticipated to result in (a) any changes to the services provided to the Funds; (b) any changes to the personnel who provide portfolio management services to the Funds; (c) any changes to the investment philosophy, strategies, process or guidelines of the Funds; (d) any changes to the investment, analyst, trading, operational, administrative, legal or compliance resources currently being used with respect to the Funds; (e) any adverse changes to the nature, level or quality of actual investment advisory and other services provided to the Funds under the current agreements; or (f) any changes to the fees charged to the Funds under the current agreements and applicable fee waivers. The Board further considered that there were no anticipated changes to the senior leadership responsible for the overseeing and providing of advisory services to the Funds. The Board considered that TAL has provided administrative services to the Funds pursuant to separate administrative agreements; however, such administrative agreements were being phased out over a three-year period. NFAL will assume the responsibilities for the administrative services until the administrative service agreements are phased out and, thereafter, NFAL and/or its affiliates will continue to provide such services under the respective advisory agreements at no additional cost or under the administrative agreements without allocating expenses to the Funds. The Board considered that there is no anticipated change to the personnel providing services to the Funds as the compliance, operational and portfolio management teams of Nuveen were already consolidated in all material respects with respect to the management of the funds whether a fund was advised by TAL or NFAL. After consideration of the foregoing, the Board Members considered that there would be no diminution of the nature, quality or extent of services provided to the Funds.

The Board considered the terms of the New Advisory Agreements and New Sub-Advisory Agreements and the fees paid thereunder to NFAL and NAM, respectively. The Board considered that the fee rates would not change under the New Advisory Agreements and New Sub-Advisory Agreements and that NFAL would be responsible to pay NAM as the sub-adviser to the Funds under the respective New Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Funds would pay the same compensation rates to NFAL under the New Advisory Agreements as under the current Advisory Agreements with TAL.

In addition, the Board considered the various benefits that the funds may derive from the Restructuring, including from enhanced operational efficiencies and streamlined processes, and a simplified and more transparent advisory relationship pursuant to which the funds would work with a single advisory entity helping to make oversight and governance more efficient. The Board considered that NFAL and its affiliates may also benefit through more operational efficiencies and reduced redundancies and the consolidation of certain services and systems which may lead to cost savings. Other than the benefits noted, the Board considered that management does not believe there are any material conflicts of interest that may arise for Nuveen with respect to the funds as a result of the Restructuring. The Board considered that the costs of the Restructuring would be borne by Nuveen.

The Board Members did not identify any single factor discussed previously as all-important or controlling. The Board Members concluded that the terms of each New Advisory Agreement and New Sub-Advisory Agreement were reasonable, that the fees of each of NFAL and NAM were reasonable in light of the services provided to each Fund and that each New Advisory Agreement and New Sub-Advisory Agreement be approved for a one-year period through July 31, 2027.
