Chair’s
Letter
to
Shareholders
Dear
Shareholders,
The
significant
measures
taken
by
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
(Fed)
and
other
global
central
banks
over
the
past
year
to
contain
inflation
have
begun
to
take
effect.
From
March
2022
to
May
2023,
the
Fed
raised
the
target
fed
funds
rate
by
5.00%
to
a
range
of
5.00%
to
5.25%,
marking
the
fastest
interest
rate
hiking
cycle
in
its
history.
Across
most
of
the
world,
inflation
rates
have
fallen
from
their
post-pandemic
highs
but
currently
remain
well
above
the
levels
that
central
banks
consider
supportive
of
their
economies’
long-term
growth.
At
the
same
time,
the
U.S.
and
other
large
economies
have
remained
surprisingly
resilient,
even
as
financial
conditions
have
tightened.
Despite
contracting
in
the
first
half
of
2022,
U.S.
gross
domestic
product
grew
2.1%
in
the
year
overall
compared
to
2021
and
expanded
at
a
more
moderate
pace
of
1.3%
in
the
first
quarter
of
2023.
A
relatively
strong
jobs
market
has
helped
support
consumer
sentiment
and
spending
despite
historically
high
inflation.
Markets
are
concerned
that
these
conditions
could
keep
upward
pressure
on
prices
and
wages,
although
the
recent
collapse
of
three
regional
U.S.
banks
(Silicon
Valley
Bank,
Signature
Bank
and
First
Republic
Bank)
and
major
European
bank
Credit
Suisse
is
likely
to
add
further
downward
pressure
to
the
economy
as
the
banking
system
slows
lending
in
response.
Fed
officials
are
closely
monitoring
inflation
data
and
other
economic
measures
to
modify
their
rate
setting
activity
based
upon
these
factors
on
a
meeting-by-meeting
basis,
including
pausing
rate
adjustments
at
the
most
recent
meeting
in
June
2023
in
order
to
assess
the
effects
of
monetary
policy
so
far
on
the
economy.
While
uncertainty
has
increased
given
the
unpredictable
outcome
of
tighter
credit
conditions
on
the
economy,
the
Fed
remains
committed
to
acting
until
it
sees
sustainable
progress
toward
its
inflation
goals.
In
the
meantime,
markets
are
likely
to
continue
reacting
in
the
short
term
to
news
about
inflation
data,
economic
indicators
and
central
bank
policy.
The
debt
ceiling
debate
in
Congress
was
also
looming
over
the
markets
until
the
government
passed
an
increase
to
the
debt
limit
in
early
June
2023
and
averted
a
default
scenario.
We
encourage
investors
to
keep
a
long-term
perspective
amid
the
short-term
noise.
Your
financial
professional
can
help
you
review
how
well
your
portfolio
is
aligned
with
your
time
horizon,
risk
tolerance
and
investment
goals.
On
behalf
of
the
other
members
of
the
Nuveen
Fund
Board,
we
look
forward
to
continuing
to
earn
your
trust
in
the
months
and
years
ahead.

Investing
involves
risk;
principal

is
possible.
There

the
Fund’s
investment
objectives

This

seeks
to
generally
track
the

results
of
an
index;
however
the
Fund
may
underperform,
outperform
or
be
more
volatile
than
the
referenced
index.
In
addition,
because
the
Index
selects
securities
for
inclusion
based
on
environmental,

(ESG)
criteria,
the

may
forgo
some

The

of

may
decline
significantly
over
short

Dividend-paying
stocks,
such
as
those
held
by
the
Fund,
are
subject
to
market
risk,
concentration
or
sector
risk,
preferred
security
risk,
and
common
stock
risk.
These
and

risk
considerations
are

may

Non-U.S.
investments
involve
risks
such
as
currency
fluctuation,
political

economic
instability,
lack
of
liquidity
and
differing
legal
and
accounting
standards.
These
risks
are
magnified
in
emerging
markets.
Due
to
the
percentage
weight
within
the
base
index,
the
Fund
may
at
times
be
significantly
invested
in
certain
countries,
such
as
China.
Investing
in
China
involves
additional
risks,
including
a
reduction
in
growth
if
global
or
domestic
demand
for
Chinese
goods
decreases
significantly,
pricing
anomalies
that
may
be
connected
to
governmental
influence,
a
lack
of
publicy-available
information
and/or
social
instability.

A

concentrated

may
present
more
risk

These
and

risks,
such
as

As
a
shareholder
of
one
or
more of
the
Funds,
you
incur
two
types
of
costs:
(1)
transaction
costs,
including
brokerage
commissions
on
purchases
and
sales
of
Fund
shares,
and
(2)
ongoing
costs,
including
management
fees
and
other
applicable
Fund
expenses.
The
Examples
below
are
intended
to
help
you
understand
your
ongoing
costs
(in
dollars)
of
investing
in
the
Fund
and
to
compare
these
costs
with
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
other
funds.
The
Examples
below
are
based
on
an
investment
of
$1,000
invested
at
the
beginning
of
the
period
and
held
through
the
period
ended
April
30,
2023.
The
beginning
of
the
period
is
November
1,
2022.
The
information
under
“Actual
Performance,”
together
with
the
amount
you
invested,
allows
you
to
estimate
actual
expenses
incurred
over
the
reporting
period.
Simply
divide
your
account
value
by
$1,000
(for
example,
an
$8,600
account
value
divided
by
$1,000
=
8.60)
and
multiply
the
result
by
the
cost
shown
for
your
share
class,
in
the
row
entitled
“Expenses
Incurred
During
Period”
to
estimate
the
expenses
incurred
on
your
account
during
this
period.
The
information
under
“Hypothetical
Performance,”
provides
information
about
hypothetical
account
values
and
hypothetical
expenses
based
on
each
Fund’s
actual
expense
ratios
and
an
assumed
rate
of
return
of
5%
per
year
before
expenses,
which
is
not
the
Fund’s
actual
return.
The
hypothetical
account
values
and
expenses
may
not
be
used
to
estimate
the
actual
ending
account
balance
or
expense
you
incurred
for
the
period.
You
may
use
this
information
to
compare
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
the
Fund
and
other
funds.
To
do
so,
compare
this
5%
hypothetical
example
with
the
5%
hypothetical
examples
that
appear
in
the
shareholder
reports
of
the
other
funds.
Please
note
that
the
expenses
shown
in
the
following
tables
are
meant
to
highlight
your
ongoing
costs
only
and
do
not
reflect
any
transaction
costs.
Therefore,
the
hypothetical
information
is
useful
in
comparing
ongoing
costs
only,
and
will
not
help
you
determine
the
relative
total
costs
of
owning
different
funds
or
share
classes.
In
addition,
if
these
transaction
costs
were
included,
your
costs
would
have
been
higher.

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. Each
Fund
is
an
investment
company
and
follows
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
shareholder
transactions.
The
NAV
for
financial
reporting
purposes
includes
security
and
shareholder
transactions
through
the
date
of
the
report.
Total
return
is
computed
based
on
the
NAV
used
for
processing
security
and
shareholder
transactions.
The
following
is
a
summary
of
the
significant
accounting
policies
consistently
followed
by
the
Funds.
Compensation:
The Trust
pays
no
compensation
directly
to
those
of
its
trustees
or
to
its
officers,
all
of
whom
receive
remuneration
for
their
services
to the
Trust
from
the
Adviser
or
its
affiliates.
The
Funds'
Board
of Trustees
(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.
Distributions
to
Shareholders:
Distributions
to
shareholders
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date.
The
amount,
character
and
timing
of
distributions
are
determined
in
accordance
with
federal
income
tax
regulations,
which
may
differ
from
U.S.
GAAP.
Foreign
Currency
Transactions
and
Translation:
The
books
and
records
of
the
Funds

currencies
are
translated
into
U.S.
dollars
at
the
end
of
each
day.
Purchases
and
sales
of
securities,
income
and
expenses
are
translated
into
U.S.
dollars
at
the
prevailing
exchange
rate
on
the
respective
dates
of
the
transactions.
Net
realized
foreign
currency
gains
and
losses
resulting
from
changes
in
exchange
rates
associated
with
(i)
foreign
currency,
(ii)
investments
and
(iii)
derivatives
include
foreign
currency
gains
and
losses
between
trade
date
and
settlement
date
of
the
transactions,
foreign
currency
transactions,
and
the
difference
between
the
amounts
of
interest
and
dividends
recorded
on
the
books
of
the
Funds
and
the
amounts
actually
received
are
recognized
as
a
component
of
“Net
realized
gain
(loss)
from
investments
and
foreign
currency”
on
the
Statement
of
Operations,
when
applicable.
The
unrealized

currency
exchange
rates
and
changes
in
foreign
exchange
rates
associated
with
(i)
investments
and
(ii)
other
assets
and
liabilities
are
recognized
as
a
component
of
“Change
in
net
unrealized
appreciation
(depreciation)
of
investments
and
foreign
currency”
on
the
Statement
of
Operations,
when
applicable.
The
unrealized
gains
and
losses
resulting
from
changes
in
foreign
exchange
rates
associated
with
investments
in
derivatives
are
recognized
as
a
component
of
the
respective
derivative’s
related
“Change
in
net
unrealized
appreciation
(depreciation)”
on
the
Statement
of
Operations,
when
applicable.
As
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period,
the
following
Funds'
investments
in
non-U.S.
securities
were
as
follows:
Notes
to
Financial
Statements
(Unaudited)
(continued)
Foreign
Taxes:
The
Funds
may
be
subject
to
foreign
taxes
on
income,
gains,
on
investments
or
foreign
currency
repatriation,
a
portion
of
which
may
be
recoverable.
The
Funds
will
accrue
such
taxes
and
recoveries
as
applicable,
based
upon
the
current
interpretation
of
tax
rules
and
regulations
that
exist
in
the
markets
in
which
the
Funds
invest.
Indemnifications:
Under
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
end
of
trade
date
for
financial
reporting
purposes.
Dividend
income
is
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date.
Foreign
dividend
income
is
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date
or
as
soon
as
possible
after
the
Funds
determine
the
existence
of
a
dividend
declaration.
Non-cash
dividends
received
in
the
form
of
stock,
if
any,
are
recognized
on
the
ex-dividend
date
and
recorded
at
fair
value.
Interest
income
is
recorded
on
an
accrual
basis.
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.
Securities
lending
income
is
comprised
of
fees
earned
from
borrowers
and
income
earned
on
cash
collateral
investments.
New
Accounting
Pronouncements
New
Accounting
Pronouncement:
In
March
2020,
FASB
issued
Accounting
Standards
Update
(“ASU”)
2020-04,
Reference
Rate
Reform:
Facilitation
of
the
Effects
of
Reference
Rate
Reform
on
Financial
Reporting.
The
main
objective
of
the
new
guidance
is
to
provide
relief
to
companies
that
will
be
impacted
by
the
expected
change
in
benchmark
interest
rates,
when
participating
banks
will
no
longer
be
required
to
submit
London
Interbank
Offered
Rate
(LIBOR)
quotes
by
the
UK
Financial
Conduct
Authority
(FCA).
The
new
guidance
allows
companies
to,
provided
the
only
change
to
existing
contracts
are
a
change
to
an
approved
benchmark
interest
rate,
account
for
modifications
as
a
continuance
of
the
existing
contract
without
additional
analysis.
For
new
and
existing
contracts,
the
Funds
may
elect
to
apply
the
amendments
as
of
March
12,
2020
through
December
31,
2022.
In
December
2022,
FASB
deferred
ASU
2022-04
and
issued
ASU
2022-06,
Reference
Rate
Reform:
Deferral
of
the
Sunset
Date
of
Topic
848,
which
extends
the
application
of
the
amendments
through
December
31,
2024. Management
has
not
yet
elected
to
apply
the
amendments,
is
continuously
evaluating
the
potential
effect
a
discontinuation
of
LIBOR
could
have
on
the
Funds’
investments
and
has
currently
determined
that
it
is
unlikely
the
ASU’s
adoption
will
have
a
significant
impact
on
the
Funds’
financial
statements
and
various
filings.

New
Accounting
Pronouncement:
In
June
2022,
the
FASB
issued
ASU
2022-03
to
clarify
the
guidance
in
Topic
820,
Fair
Value
Measurement
("Topic
820").
The
amendments
in
ASU
2022-03
affect
all
entities
that
have
investments
in
equity
securities
measured
at
fair
value
that
are
subject
to
a
contractual
sale
restriction.
ASU
2022-03
(1)
clarifies
the
guidance
in
Topic
820,
when
measuring
the
fair
value
of
an
equity
security
subject
to
contractual
restrictions
that
prohibit
the
sale
of
equity
security,
(2)
amends
a
related
illustrative
example,
and
(3)
introduces
new
disclosure
requirements
for
equity
securities
subject
to
contractual
sale
restrictions
that
are
measured
at
fair
value
in
accordance
with
Topic
820.
For
public
business
entities,
the
amendments
in
ASU
2022-03
are
effective
for
fiscal
years
beginning
after
December
15,
2023,
and
interim
periods
within
those
fiscal
years.
For
all
other
entities,
the
amendments
are
effective
for
fiscal
years
beginning
after
December
15,
2024,
and

years.
Early
adoption
is
permitted
for
both
interim
and
annual
financial
statements
that
have
not
yet
been
issued
or
made
available
for
issuance.
Management
is
currently
assessing
the
impact
of
these
provisions
on
the
Funds'
financial
statements.

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

Portfolio
Securities
and

Portfolio
Securities
Securities
Lending:
Each
Fund
may
lend
securities
representing
up
to
one-third
of
the
value
of
its
total
assets
to
broker-dealers,
banks,
and
other
institutions
in
order
to
generate
additional
income.
When
loaning
securities,
the
Fund
retains
the
benefits
of
owning
the
securities,
including
the
economic
equivalent
of
dividends
or
interest
generated
by
the
security.
The
loans
are
continuous,
can
be
recalled
at
any
time,
and
have
no
set
maturity.
State
Street
Bank
and
Trust
Company,
serves
as
the
securities
lending
agent
(the
“Agent”).
When
a
Fund
loans
its
portfolio
securities,
it
will
receive,
at
the
inception
of
each
loan,
cash
collateral
equal
to
an
amount
not
less
than
100%
of
the
market
value
of
the
loaned
securities.
The
actual
percentage
of
the
cash
collateral
will
vary
depending
upon
the
asset
type
of
the
loaned
securities.
Collateral
for
the
loaned
securities
is
invested
in
a
government
money
market
vehicle
maintained
by
the
Agent,
which
is
subject
to
the
requirements
of
Rule
2a-7
under
the
1940
Act.
The
value
of
the
loaned
securities
and
the
liability
to
return
the
cash
collateral
received
are
recognized
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
If
the
market
value
of
the
loaned
securities
increases,
the
borrower
must
furnish
additional
collateral
to
the
Fund,
which
is
also
recognized
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
Securities
out
on
loan
are
subject
to
termination
at
any
time
at
the
option
of
the
borrower
or
the
Fund.
Upon
termination,
the
borrower
is
required
to
return
to
the
Fund
securities
identical
to
the
securities
loaned.
During
the
term
of
the
loan,
the
Fund
bears
the
market
risk
with
respect
to
the
investment
of
collateral
and
the
risk
that
the
Agent
may
default
on
its
contractual
obligations
to
the
Fund.
The
Agent
bears
the
risk
that
the
borrower
may
default
on
its
obligation
to
return
the
loaned
securities
as
the
Agent
is
contractually
obligated
to
indemnify
the
Fund
if
at
the
time
of
a
default
by
a
borrower
some
or
all
of
the
loan
securities
have
not
been
returned.
Securities
lending
income
recognized
by
a
Fund
consists
of
earnings
on
invested
collateral
and
lending
fees,
net
of
any
rebates
to
the
borrower
and
compensation
to
the
Agent.
Such
income
is
recognized
on
the
Statement
of
Operations.
As

Notes
to
Financial
Statements
(Unaudited)
(continued)
In-kind
transactions
during
the
current
fiscal
period
were
as
follows:
The
Funds
may
purchase
securities
on
a
when-issued
or
delayed-delivery
basis.
Securities
purchased
on
a
when-issued
or
delayed-delivery
basis
may
have
extended
settlement
periods;
interest
income
is
not
accrued
until
settlement
date.
Any
securities
so
purchased
are
subject
to
market
fluctuation
during
this
period.
The
Funds
have
earmarked
securities
in
their
portfolios
with
a
current
value
at
least
equal
to
the
amount
of
the
when-issued/
delayed
delivery
purchase
commitments.
If
a
Fund
has
outstanding
when-issued/delayed-delivery
purchases
commitments
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period,
such
amounts
are
recognized
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
Investments
in
Derivatives
Each
Fund
is
authorized
to
invest
in
certain
derivative
instruments.
The
Funds
record
derivative
instruments
at
fair
value,
with
changes
in
fair
value
recognized
on
the
Statement
of
Operations,
when
applicable.
Even
though
the
Funds’
investments
in
derivatives
may
represent
economic
hedges,
they
are
not
considered
to
be
hedge
transactions
for
financial
reporting
purposes.
Although
the
Funds
are
authorized
to
invest
in
derivative
instruments,
and
may
do
so
in
the
future,
they
did
not
make
any
such
investments
during
the
current
fiscal
period.
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

of
each
Fund
with
a
value
approximately
equal
to
the
amount
of
any
unrealized

Reciprocally,
when

have
instructed
the

as
collateral
with
a

approximately
equal
to
the
amount
of
the
unrealized

above
a
pre-determined

Collateral
pledges
are
monitored

subsequently
adjusted
if
and
when
the
valuations
fluctuate,
either
up
or
down,
by
at
least
the
pre-determined

amount.

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

Management
Fees
and
Other
Transactions
with
Affiliates
Management
Fees:
Each
Fund’s
management
fee
compensates
the
Adviser
for its
investment
advisory services
to
the
Funds.
The
Sub-Adviser
is
compensated
for
its
services
to
the
Funds
from
the
management
fees
paid
to
the
Adviser.
The
Adviser
is
responsible
for
substantially
all
other
expenses
of
the
Funds,
except
any
future
distribution
and/or
service
fees,
interest
expenses,
taxes,
acquired
fund
fees
and
expenses,
fees
incurred
in
acquiring
and
disposing
of
portfolio
securities,

(including
any
trustees’
counsel
fees),
certain
compensation
expenses
of
the
Funds’
chief
compliance
officer,
litigation
expenses
and
extraordinary
expenses.
The
annual management
fee,
payable
monthly,
for
each
Fund
is
based
on
a
percentage
of
average
daily
net
assets
according
to
the
following
rates:
Other
Transactions
with
Affiliates
Each
Fund
is
permitted
to
purchase
or
sell
securities
from
or
to
certain
other
funds
or
accounts
managed
by
the
Sub-Adviser
(“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

These
transactions
are
effected
at
the
current
market
price
(as
provided
by
an
independent
pricing
service)
without
incurring
broker
commissions.
During

over
a
particular,
usually
multi-year
time
period.
It
expresses
the
return
that
would

performance
(including
change
in

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

Chair’s
Letter
to
Shareholders
Dear
Shareholders,
The
significant
measures
taken
by
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
(Fed)
and
other
global
central
banks
over
the
past
year
to
contain
inflation
have
begun
to
take
effect.
From
March
2022
to
May
2023,
the
Fed
raised
the
target
fed
funds
rate
by
5.00%
to
a
range
of
5.00%
to
5.25%,
marking
the
fastest
interest
rate
hiking
cycle
in
its
history.
Across
most
of
the
world,
inflation
rates
have
fallen
from
their
post-pandemic
highs
but
currently
remain
well
above
the
levels
that
central
banks
consider
supportive
of
their
economies’
long-term
growth.
At
the
same
time,
the
U.S.
and
other
large
economies
have
remained
surprisingly
resilient,
even
as
financial
conditions
have
tightened.
Despite
contracting
in
the
first
half
of
2022,
U.S.
gross
domestic
product
grew
2.1%
in
the
year
overall
compared
to
2021
and
expanded
at
a
more
moderate
pace
of
1.3%
in
the
first
quarter
of
2023.
A
relatively
strong
jobs
market
has
helped
support
consumer
sentiment
and
spending
despite
historically
high
inflation.
Markets
are
concerned
that
these
conditions
could
keep
upward
pressure
on
prices
and
wages,
although
the
recent
collapse
of
three
regional
U.S.
banks
(Silicon
Valley
Bank,
Signature
Bank
and
First
Republic
Bank)
and
major
European
bank
Credit
Suisse
is
likely
to
add
further
downward
pressure
to
the
economy
as
the
banking
system
slows
lending
in
response.
Fed
officials
are
closely
monitoring
inflation
data
and
other
economic
measures
to
modify
their
rate
setting
activity
based
upon
these
factors
on
a
meeting-by-meeting
basis,
including
pausing
rate
adjustments
at
the
most
recent
meeting
in
June
2023
in
order
to
assess
the
effects
of
monetary
policy
so
far
on
the
economy.
While
uncertainty
has
increased
given
the
unpredictable
outcome
of
tighter
credit
conditions
on
the
economy,
the
Fed
remains
committed
to
acting
until
it
sees
sustainable
progress
toward
its
inflation
goals.
In
the
meantime,
markets
are
likely
to
continue
reacting
in
the
short
term
to
news
about
inflation
data,
economic
indicators
and
central
bank
policy.
The
debt
ceiling
debate
in
Congress
was
also
looming
over
the
markets
until
the
government
passed
an
increase
to
the
debt
limit
in
early
June
2023
and
averted
a
default
scenario.
We
encourage
investors
to
keep
a
long-term
perspective
amid
the
short-term
noise.
Your
financial
professional
can
help
you
review
how
well
your
portfolio
is
aligned
with
your
time
horizon,
risk
tolerance
and
investment
goals.
On
behalf
of
the
other
members
of
the
Nuveen
Fund
Board,
we
look
forward
to
continuing
to
earn
your
trust
in
the
months
and
years
ahead.

Large
companies
are
more
mature

may
grow
more

Growth

tend
to
be
more

involve
risks
such
as

and
economic
instability,
lack
of
liquidity
and
differing
legal
and

standards.
These
and

Because
the
Fund’s
Environmental
Social
Governance
(ESG)
investment
strategy
may
exclude
securities

reasons,
the

may
forgo
some
market
opportunities
available
to
funds
that
don’t
use
an
ESG
investment
strategy.
Prices

Growth

tend
to

their

usually
fluctuate
more
dramatically

As
a
shareholder
of
one
or
more of
the
Funds,
you
incur
two
types
of
costs:
(1)
transaction
costs,
including
brokerage
commissions
on
purchases
and
sales
of
Fund
shares,
and
(2)
ongoing
costs,
including
management
fees
and
other
applicable
Fund
expenses.
The
Examples
below
are
intended
to
help
you
understand
your
ongoing
costs
(in
dollars)
of
investing
in
the
Fund
and
to
compare
these
costs
with
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
other
funds.
The
Examples
below
are
based
on
an
investment
of
$1,000
invested
at
the
beginning
of
the
period
and
held
through
the
period
ended
April
30,
2023.
The
beginning
of
the
period
is
November
1,
2022.
The
information
under
“Actual
Performance,”
together
with
the
amount
you
invested,
allows
you
to
estimate
actual
expenses
incurred
over
the
reporting
period.
Simply
divide
your
account
value
by
$1,000
(for
example,
an
$8,600
account
value
divided
by
$1,000
=
8.60)
and
multiply
the
result
by
the
cost
shown
for
your
share
class,
in
the
row
entitled
“Expenses
Incurred
During
Period”
to
estimate
the
expenses
incurred
on
your
account
during
this
period.
The
information
under
“Hypothetical
Performance,”
provides
information
about
hypothetical
account
values
and
hypothetical
expenses
based
on
each
Fund’s
actual
expense
ratios
and
an
assumed
rate
of
return
of
5%
per
year
before
expenses,
which
is
not
the
Fund’s
actual
return.
The
hypothetical
account
values
and
expenses
may
not
be
used
to
estimate
the
actual
ending
account
balance
or
expense
you
incurred
for
the
period.
You
may
use
this
information
to
compare
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
the
Fund
and
other
funds.
To
do
so,
compare
this
5%
hypothetical
example
with
the
5%
hypothetical
examples
that
appear
in
the
shareholder
reports
of
the
other
funds.
Please
note
that
the
expenses
shown
in
the
following
tables
are
meant
to
highlight
your
ongoing
costs
only
and
do
not
reflect
any
transaction
costs.
Therefore,
the
hypothetical
information
is
useful
in
comparing
ongoing
costs
only,
and
will
not
help
you
determine
the
relative
total
costs
of
owning
different
funds
or

classes.
In
addition,
if
these
transaction
costs
were
included,
your
costs
would
have
been
higher.

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.
Each
Fund
is
an
investment
company
and
follows
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
creation
unit
transactions.
The
NAV
for
financial
reporting
purposes
includes
security
and creation
unit transactions
through
the
date
of
the
report.
Total
return
is
computed
based
on
the
NAV
used
for
processing
security
and creation
unit transactions.
The
following
is
a
summary
of
the
significant
accounting
policies
consistently
followed
by
the
Funds.
Compensation:
The Trust
pays
no
compensation
directly
to
those
of
its
trustees
or
to
its
officers,
all
of
whom
receive
remuneration
for
their
services
to the
Trust
from
the
Adviser
or
its
affiliates.
The
Funds'
Board
of Trustees
(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.
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
end
of
trade
date
for
financial
reporting
purposes.
Dividend
income
is
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date.
Foreign
dividend
income
is
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date
or
as
soon
as
possible
after
the
Funds
determine
the
existence
of
a
dividend
declaration.
Non-cash
dividends
received
in
the
form
of
stock,
if
any,
are
recognized
on
the
ex-dividend
date
and
recorded
at
fair
value.
Interest
income
is
recorded
on
an
accrual
basis.
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.
Securities
lending
income
is
comprised
of
fees
earned
from
borrowers
and
income
earned
on
cash
collateral
investments.

Pronouncement:
In
March
2020,
FASB
issued
Accounting
Standards
Update
(“ASU”)
2020-04,
Reference
Rate
Reform:
Facilitation
of
the
Effects
of
Reference
Rate
Reform
on
Financial
Reporting.
The
main
objective
of
the
new
guidance
is
to
provide
relief
to
companies
that
will
be
impacted
by
the
expected
change
in
benchmark
interest
rates,
when
participating
banks
will
no
longer
be
required
to
submit
London
Interbank
Offered
Rate
(LIBOR)
quotes
by
the
UK
Financial
Conduct
Authority
(FCA).
The
new
guidance
allows
companies
to,
provided
the
only
change
to
existing
contracts
are
a
change
to
an
approved
benchmark
interest
rate,
account
for
modifications
as
a
continuance
of
the
existing
contract
without
additional
analysis.
For
new
and
existing
contracts,
the
Funds
may
elect
to
apply
the
amendments
as
of
March
12,
2020
through
December
31,
2022.
In
December
2022,
FASB
deferred
ASU
2022-04
and
issued
ASU
2022-06,
Reference
Rate
Reform:
Deferral
of
the
Sunset
Date
of
Topic
848,
which
extends
the
application
of
the
amendments
through
December
31,
2024. Management
has
not
yet
elected
to
apply
the
amendments,
is
continuously
evaluating
the
potential
effect
a
discontinuation
of
LIBOR
could
have
on
the
Funds’
investments
and
has
currently
determined
that
it
is
unlikely
the
ASU’s
adoption
will
have
a
significant
impact
on
the
Funds’
financial
statements
and
various
filings.

New
Accounting
Pronouncement:
In
June
2022,
the
FASB
issued
ASU
2022-03
to
clarify
the
guidance
in
Topic
820,
Fair
Value
Measurement
("Topic
820").
The
amendments
in
ASU
2022-03
affect
all
entities
that
have
investments
in
equity
securities
measured
at
fair
value
that
are
subject
to
a
contractual
sale
restriction.
ASU
2022-03
(1)
clarifies
the
guidance
in
Topic
820,
when
measuring
the
fair
value
of
an
equity
security
subject
to
contractual
restrictions
that
prohibit
the
sale
of
equity
security,
(2)
amends
a
related
illustrative
example,
and
(3)
introduces
new
disclosure
requirements
for
equity
securities
subject
to
contractual
sale
restrictions
that
are
measured
at
fair
value
in
accordance
with
Topic
820.
For
public
business
entities,
the
amendments
in
ASU
2022-03
are
effective
for
fiscal
years
beginning
after
December
15,
2023,
and
interim
periods
within
those
fiscal
years.
For
all
other
entities,
the
amendments
are
effective
for
fiscal
years
beginning
after
December
15,
2024,
and
interim
periods
within
those
fiscal
years.
Early
adoption
is
permitted
for
both
interim
and
annual
financial
statements
that
have
not
yet
been
issued
or
made
available
for
issuance.
Management
is
currently
assessing
the
impact
of
these
provisions
on
the
Funds'
financial
statements.

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

Portfolio
Securities
and
Investments
in
Derivatives
Portfolio
Securities
Securities
Lending:
Each
Fund
may
lend
securities
representing
up
to
one-third
of
the
value
of
its
total
assets
to
broker-dealers,
banks,
and
other
institutions
in
order
to
generate
additional
income.
When
loaning
securities,
the
Fund
retains
the
benefits
of
owning
the
securities,
including
the
economic
equivalent
of
dividends
or
interest
generated
by
the
security.
The
loans
are
continuous,
can
be
recalled
at
any
time,
and
have
no
set
maturity.
State
Street
Bank
and
Trust
Company,
serves
as
the
securities
lending
agent
(the
“Agent”).
When
a
Fund
loans
its
portfolio
securities,
it
will
receive,
at
the
inception
of
each
loan,
cash
collateral
equal
to
an
amount
not
less
than
100%
of
the
market
value
of
the
loaned
securities.
The
actual
percentage
of
the
cash
collateral
will
vary
depending
upon
the
asset
type
of
the
loaned
securities.
Collateral
for
the
loaned
securities
is
invested
in
a
government
money
market
vehicle
maintained
by
the
Agent,
which
is
subject
to
the
requirements
of
Rule
2a-7
under
the
1940
Act.
The
value
of
the
loaned
securities
and
the
liability
to
return
the
cash
collateral
received
are
recognized
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
If
the
market
value
of
the
loaned
securities
increases,
the
borrower
must
furnish
additional
collateral
to
the
Fund,
which
is
also
recognized
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
Securities
out
on
loan
are
subject
to
termination
at
any
time
at
the
option
of
the
borrower
or
the
Fund.
Upon
termination,
the
borrower
is
required
to
return
to
the
Fund
securities
identical
to
the
securities
loaned.
During
the
term
of
the
loan,
the
Fund
bears
the
market
risk
with
respect
to
the
investment
of
collateral
and
the
risk
that
the
Agent
may
default
on
its
contractual
obligations
to
the
Fund.
The
Agent
bears
the
risk
that
the
borrower
may
default
on
its
obligation
to
return
the
loaned
securities
as
the
Agent
is
contractually
obligated
to
indemnify
the
Fund
if
at
the
time
of
a
default
by
a
borrower
some
or
all
of
the
loan
securities
have
not
been
returned.
Securities
lending
income
recognized
by
a
Fund
consists
of
earnings
on
invested
collateral
and
lending
fees,
net
of
any
rebates
to
the
borrower
and
compensation
to
the
Agent.
Such
income
is
recognized
on
the
Statement
of
Operations.
As
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period,
the
total
value
of
the
loaned
securities
and
the
total
value
of
collateral
received
were

Notes
to
Financial
Statements
(Unaudited)
(continued)
The
Funds
may
purchase
securities
on
a
when-issued
or
delayed-delivery
basis.
Securities
purchased
on
a
when-issued
or
delayed-delivery
basis
may
have
extended
settlement
periods;
interest
income
is
not
accrued
until
settlement
date.
Any
securities
so
purchased
are
subject
to
market
fluctuation
during
this
period.
The
Funds
have
earmarked
securities
in
their
portfolios
with
a
current
value
at
least
equal
to
the
amount
of
the
when-issued/
delayed
delivery
purchase
commitments.
If
a
Fund
has
outstanding
when-issued/delayed-delivery
purchases
commitments
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period,
such
amounts
are
recognized
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
Investments
in
Derivatives
Each
Fund
is
authorized
to
invest
in
certain
derivative
instruments.
The
Funds
record
derivative
instruments
at
fair
value,
with
changes
in
fair
value
recognized
on
the
Statement
of
Operations,
when
applicable.
Even
though
the
Funds’
investments
in
derivatives
may
represent
economic
hedges,
they
are
not
considered
to
be
hedge
transactions
for
financial
reporting
purposes.
Although
the
Funds
are
authorized
to
invest
in
derivative
instruments,
and
may
do
so
in
the
future,
they
did
not
make
any
such
investments
during
the
current
fiscal
period.
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
predetermined
threshold
amount.

Fund
Shares
Each Fund
issues
and
redeems its
shares
on
a
continuous
basis
at
NAV
only
in
aggregations
of
a
specified
number
of
shares
or
multiples
thereof
(“Creation
Units”).
Only
certain
institutional
investors
(referred
to
as
“Authorized
Participants”)
who
have
entered
into
agreements
with
Nuveen
Securities,
LLC,
the
Funds'
distributor,
may
purchase
and
redeem
Creation
Units.
Once
created,
shares
of
the
Funds
trade
on
the
Exchange
at
market
prices
and
are
only
available
to
individual
investors
through
their
brokers.
Creation
Units
are
purchased
and
redeemed
in-kind
for
a
designated
portfolio
of
securities
included
in each
Fund’s
respective Index
and/or
a
specified
amount
of
cash.
Authorized
Participants
are
charged
fixed
transaction
fees
in
connection
with
purchasing
and
redeeming
Creation
Units.
Authorized
Participants
transacting
in
Creation
Units
for
cash
may
also
pay
an
additional
variable
charge
to
compensate
the
relevant Fund
for
certain
transaction
costs
(i.e.,
taxes
on
currency
or
other
financial
transactions,
and
brokerage
costs)
and
market
impact

it
incurs
in
purchasing
or

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.
As
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period,
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
prior
fiscal
period
end,
the
components
of
accumulated
earnings
on
a
tax
basis
were
as

Management
Fees
and
Other
Transactions
with
Affiliates
Management
Fees:
Each
Fund’s
management
fee
compensates
the
Adviser
for its
investment
advisory services
to
the
Funds.
The
Sub-Adviser
is
compensated
for
its
services
to
the
Funds
from
the
management
fees
paid
to
the
Adviser.
The
Adviser
is
responsible
for
substantially
all
other
expenses
of
the
Funds,
except
any
future
distribution
and/or
service
fees,
interest
expenses,
taxes,
acquired
fund
fees
and
expenses,
fees
incurred
in
acquiring
and
disposing
of
portfolio
securities,
fees
and
expenses
of
the
independent
trustees
(including
any
trustees’
counsel
fees),
certain
compensation
expenses
of
the
Funds’
chief
compliance
officer,
litigation
expenses
and
extraordinary
expenses.
The
annual management
fee,
payable
monthly,
for
each
Fund
is
based
on
a
percentage
of
average
daily
net
assets
according
to
the
following
rates:
Other
Transactions
with
Affiliates
Each
Fund
is
permitted
to
purchase
or
sell
securities
from
or
to
certain
other
funds
or
accounts
managed
by
the
Sub-Adviser
(“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
effected
at
the
current
market
price
(as
provided
by
an
independent
pricing
service)
without
incurring
broker
commissions.
During
the
current
fiscal
period,
the
Funds
did
not
engage
in
cross-trades
pursuant
to
these
procedures.

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