Chairman’s

Letter to Shareholders

Dear Shareholders,

These are perplexing times for investors. The global economy continues to struggle. The solutions being implemented in the eurozone to deal with the debt crises of many of its member countries are not yet seen as sufficient by the financial markets. The political paralysis in the U.S. has prevented the compromises necessary to deal with the fiscal imbalance and government spending priorities. The efforts by individual consumers, governments and financial institutions to reduce their debts are increasing savings but reducing demand for the goods and services that drive employment. These developments are undermining the rebuilding of confidence by consumers, corporations and investors that is so essential to a resumption of economic growth.

Although it is painfully slow, progress is being made. In Europe, the turnover of a number of national governments reflects the realization by politicians and voters alike that leaders who practiced business as usual had to be replaced by leaders willing to face problems and accept the hard choices needed to resolve them. The recent coordinated efforts by central banks in the U.S. and Europe to provide liquidity to the largest European banks indicates that these monetary authorities are committed to facilitating a recovery in the European banking sector.

In the U.S., the failure of the congressionally appointed Debt Reduction Committee was a blow to those who hoped for a bipartisan effort to finally begin addressing the looming fiscal crisis. Nevertheless, Congress and the administration cannot ignore the issue for long. The Bush era tax cuts are scheduled to expire on December 31, 2012, and six months later the $1.2 trillion of mandatory across-the-board spending cuts under the Budget Control Act of 2011 begin to go into effect. Any legislative modification would require bipartisan support and the prospects for a bipartisan solution are unclear. The impact of these two developments would be a mixed blessing: a meaningful reduction in the annual budget deficit at the cost of slowing the economic recovery.

It is in these particularly volatile markets that professional investment management is most important. Skillful investment teams who have experienced challenging markets and remain committed to their investment disciplines are critical to the success of an investor’s long-term objectives. In fact, many long-term investment track records are built during challenging markets when managers are able to protect investors against these economic crosscurrents. Experienced investment teams know that volatile markets put a premium on companies and investment ideas that will weather the short-term volatility and that compelling values and opportunities are opened up when markets overreact to negative developments. By maintaining appropriate time horizons, diversification and relying on practiced investment teams, we believe that investors can achieve their long-term investment objectives.

As always, I encourage you to contact your financial consultant if you have any questions about your investment in a Nuveen Fund. On behalf of the other members of your Fund Board, we look forward to continuing to earn your trust in the months and years ahead.

Sincerely,

Robert P. Bremner

Chairman of the Board

Portfolio Manager’s Comments

Certain statements in this report are forward-looking statements. Discussions of specific investments are for illustration only and are not intended as recommendations of individual investments. The forward-looking statements and other views expressed herein are those of the portfolio manager as of the date of this report. Actual future results or occurrences may differ significantly from those anticipated in any forward-looking statements and the views expressed herein are subject to change at any time, due to numerous market and other factors. The Portfolio disclaims any obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements or views expressed herein.

Ratings shown are the highest rating given by one of the following national rating agencies: Standard & Poor’s Group, Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or Fitch, Inc. Credit ratings are subject to change. AAA, AA, A and BBB are investment grade ratings; BB, B, CCC, CC, C and D are below investment grade ratings. Certain bonds backed by U.S. Government or agency securities are regarded as having an implied rating equal to the rating of such securities. Holdings designated N/R are not rated by a national rating agency.

This Portfolio was developed exclusively for use within Nuveen-sponsored separately managed accounts. It enables certain Nuveen municipal separately managed account investors to achieve greater diversification and return potential than otherwise might be achievable.

The Portfolio is managed by Marty Doyle, CFA, who has 20 years of investment experience and has managed the Portfolio since its inception in 2007. Here Marty discusses the Portfolio’s investment strategy and its performance over the six-month period ended January 31, 2012.

How did the Portfolio perform during the six-month period ended January 31, 2012?

The tables in the Fund Performance and Expense Ratios section of this report provide Class A Share total returns for the Portfolio for the six-month, one-year and since inception periods ended January 31, 2012. The Portfolio’s Class A Share total returns at net asset value are compared with the performance of a corresponding market index. The Portfolio outperformed the Barclays Capital 7-Year Municipal Bond Index during the six-month reporting period. A more detailed account of the Portfolio’s performance is provided later in this report.

What strategies were used to manage the Portfolio during the reporting period? How did these strategies influence performance?

The Portfolio uses a value-oriented strategy and looks for higher-yielding and undervalued municipal bonds that offer the potential for above-average total return. The Portfolio invests in various types of municipal securities, including investment grade (rated BBB/Baa or better), below investment grade (rated BB/Ba or lower), high yield, and unrated municipal securities. The Portfolio focuses on securities with intermediate to longer-term maturities. This investment strategy did not change during the reporting period.

The Portfolio’s diversified yield curve positioning was one factor that contributed to the relative outperformance experienced over the period. We also increased the Portfolio’s exposure to mid-investment grade (A and BBB rated) bonds that offered solid total return and income potential, especially in a lower yield environment. Additionally, we continued to selectively add to the Portfolio’s high yield exposure, which added to the Portfolio’s relative performance. Throughout the period, we gradually increased our exposure to longer duration securities and sought improved call protection to increase the Portfolio’s income sustainability, while trying to minimize potential duration volatility and enhance

long-term return prospects. Replacing older, lower-yielding investments that were called or matured, and selling other holdings at opportune times, allowed us to utilize the comparatively steep yield curve and take advantage of attractive situations in the market to boost relative performance.

Risk Considerations

Mutual fund investing involves risk; principal loss is possible. Debt or fixed income securities such as those held by the fund, are subject to market risk, credit risk, interest rate risk, call risk, and income risk. As interest rates rise, bond prices fall. Credit risk refers to an issuers ability to make interest and principal payments when due. Below investment grade or high yield debt securities are subject to liquidity risk and heightened credit risk. The fund’s potential use of inverse floaters creates effective leverage. Leverage involves the risk that the fund could lose more than its original investment and also increases the fund’s exposure to volatility and interest rate risk.

Fund Performance and Expense Ratios (Unaudited)

This Fund is a specialized municipal bond portfolio developed exclusively for use within Nuveen-sponsored separately managed accounts.

Returns quoted represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance shown. Investment returns and principal value will fluctuate so that when shares are redeemed, they may be worth more or less than their original cost. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

Returns may reflect a contractual agreement between the Fund and the investment adviser to waive certain fees and expenses; see Notes to Financial Statements, Footnote 7 — Management Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates for more information. In addition, returns may reflect a voluntary expense limitation by the Fund’s investment adviser that may be modified or discontinued at any time without notice. For the most recent month-end performance visit www.nuveen.com or call (800) 257-8787.

Fund shares have no sales charge. Fund returns assume reinvestment of dividends and capital gains.

The expense ratios shown reflect the Fund’s total operating expenses (before fee waivers or expense reimbursements, if any) as shown in the Fund’s most recent prospectus.

Yields(Unaudited)as of January 31, 2012

Dividend Yield is the most recent dividend per share (annualized) divided by the offering price per share.

The SEC 30-Day Yield is a standardized measure of the Fund’s yield that accounts for the future amortization of premiums or discounts of bonds held in the Fund’s portfolio. The SEC 30-Day Yield is computed under an SEC standardized formula and is based on the maximum offer price per share. Dividend Yield may differ from the SEC 30-Day Yield because the Fund may be paying out more or less than it is earning and it may not include the effect of amortization of bond premium.

The Taxable-Equivalent Yield represents the yield that must be earned on a fully taxable investment in order to equal the yield of the Fund on an after-tax basis at a specified tax rate. With respect to investments that generate qualified dividend income that is taxable at a maximum rate of 15%, the Taxable-Equivalent Yield is lower.

	Dividend Yield		SEC 30-Day Yield		Taxable- Equivalent Yield1
Class I Shares		4.86%		3.91%		5.43%

1 The Taxable-Equivalent Yield is based on the Fund’s SEC 30-Day Yield on the indicated date and a federal income tax rate of 28%.

Expense Examples (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including up-front and back-end sales charges (loads) or redemption fees, where applicable; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service (12b-1) fees, where applicable; and other Fund expenses. The Example below is 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 mutual funds.

The Example below is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the period.

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 the Fund’s actual expense ratio 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 table 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.

	Actual Performance		Hypothetical Performance (5% annualized return before expenses)
Beginning Account Value (8/01/11)	$	1,000.00	$	1,000.00
Ending Account Value (1/31/12)	$	1,094.80	$	1,025.14
Expenses Incurred During Period	$	—	$	—

Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized net expense ratio of 0.00% for the six-month period.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1. General Information and Significant Accounting Policies

General Information

The Nuveen Managed Accounts Portfolios Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Trust is comprised of the Municipal Total Return Managed Accounts Portfolio (the “Fund”), among others. The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts business trust on November 14, 2006.

The Fund is developed exclusively for use within Nuveen-sponsored separately managed accounts. The Fund is a specialized municipal bond Fund to be used in combination with selected individual securities to effectively model institutional-level investment strategies. The Fund enables certain Nuveen municipal separately managed account investors to achieve greater diversification and return potential than smaller managed accounts might otherwise achieve by using lower quality, higher yielding securities and to gain access to special investment opportunities normally available only to institutional investors.

The Fund’s primary investment objective is to seek attractive total return. The Fund also seeks to provide high current income exempt from regular federal income taxes. Nuveen Asset Management, LLC (the “Sub-Adviser”) a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nuveen Fund Advisors, Inc. (the “Adviser”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Nuveen Investments, Inc. (“Nuveen”), uses a value-oriented strategy and looks for higher-yielding and undervalued municipal bonds that offer the potential for above-average total return. The Fund invests in various types of municipal securities, including investment grade (rated BBB/Baa or better), below investment grade (rated BB/Ba or lower) (high yield), and unrated municipal securities. The Fund will focus on securities with intermediate to longer term maturities. The Fund may invest up to 50% of its net assets in high yield municipal bonds, but will normally invest 10-30% of its net assets in such bonds. Such securities are commonly referred to as “high yield” securities or junk bonds. The Fund may invest up to 5% of its net assets in defaulted bonds and up to 50% of its net assets in municipal securities whose interest payments vary inversely with changes in short-term tax-exempt interest rates (“inverse floating rate securities”). The credit quality of the bonds underlying all leveraged municipal securities will be rated AA/Aa or higher, or, if unrated, judged to be of comparable quality by the Sub-Adviser. The Fund may also make forward commitments in which the Fund agrees to buy a security for settlement in the future at a price agreed upon today.

The Fund’s most recent prospectus provides further description of the Fund’s investment objective, principal investment strategies and principal risks.

Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”).

Investment Valuation

Prices of municipal bonds are provided by a pricing service approved by the Fund’s Board of Trustees. These securities are generally classified as Level 2 for fair value measurement purposes. When price quotes are not readily available (which is usually the case for municipal bonds) the pricing service establishes 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, the pricing service may consider information about a security, its issuer, or market activity provided by the Adviser. These securities are generally classified as Level 2 or Level 3 depending on the priority of the significant inputs.

Certain securities may not be able to be priced by the pre-established pricing methods as described above. Such securities may be valued by the Fund’s Board of Trustees or its designee at fair value. These securities generally include, but are not limited to, restricted securities (securities which may not be publicly sold without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) for which a pricing service is unable to provide a market price; securities whose trading has been formally suspended; debt securities that have gone into default and for which there is no current market quotation; a security whose market price is not available from a pre-established pricing source; a security with respect to which an event has occurred that is likely to materially affect the value of the security after the market has closed but before the calculation of a Fund’s net asset value (as may be the case in non-U.S. markets on which the security is primarily traded) or make it difficult or impossible to obtain a reliable market quotation; and a security whose price, as provided by the pricing service, is not deemed to reflect the security’s fair value. As a general principle, the fair value of a security would appear to be the amount that the owner might reasonably expect to receive for them 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. These securities are classified as Level 2 or as Level 3 depending on the priority of the significant inputs. Regardless of the method employed to value a particular security, all valuations are subject to review by the Fund’s Board of Trustees or its designee.

Refer to Footnote 2 – Fair Value Measurements for further details on the leveling of securities held by the Fund as of the end of the reporting period.

Investment Transactions

Investment transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are determined on the specific identification method, which is the same basis used for federal income tax purposes. Investments purchased on a when-issued/delayed delivery basis may have extended settlement periods. Any investments so purchased are subject to market fluctuation during this period. The Fund has instructed the custodian to segregate assets with a current value at least equal to the amount of the when-issued/delayed delivery purchase commitments. At January 31, 2012, the Fund had outstanding when-issued/delayed delivery purchase commitments of $1,506,673.

Investment Income

Investment income, which reflects the amortization of premiums and includes accretion of discounts for financial reporting purposes, is recorded on an accrual basis. Investment income also reflects paydown gains and losses, if any.

Professional Fees

Professional fees presented on the Statement of Operations consist of legal fees incurred in the normal course of operations, audit fees, tax consulting fees and, in some cases, workout expenditures. Workout expenditures are incurred in an attempt to protect or enhance an investment, or to pursue other claims or legal actions on behalf of Fund shareholders.

Income Taxes

The Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and net capital gains to shareholders and to 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. Furthermore, the Fund intends to satisfy conditions which will enable interest from municipal securities, which is exempt from regular federal income tax, to retain such tax-exempt status when distributed to shareholders of the Fund. Net realized capital gains and ordinary income distributions paid by the Fund are subject to federal taxation.

For all open tax years and all major taxing jurisdictions, management of the Fund has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the financial statements. Open tax years are those that are open for examination by taxing authorities (i.e., generally the last four tax year ends and the interim tax period since then). Furthermore, management of the Fund is also not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders

The Fund declares dividends from its net investment income daily and pays shareholders monthly. Fund shares begin to accrue dividends on the business day after the day when the monies used to purchase Fund shares are collected by the Fund’s transfer agent.

Net realized capital gains and/or market discount from investment transactions, if any, are declared and distributed to shareholders at least annually. Furthermore, capital gains are distributed only to the extent they exceed available capital loss carryforwards.

Distributions to shareholders of net investment income, net realized capital gains and/or market discount, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount and timing of distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Fund is authorized to invest in certain derivative instruments, including, futures, options and swap contracts. Although the Fund is authorized to invest in such derivative instruments, and may do so in the future, it did not make any such investments during the six months ended January 31, 2012.

Inverse Floating Rate Securities

The Fund is authorized to invest in inverse floating rate securities. An inverse floating rate security is created by depositing a municipal bond, typically with a fixed interest rate, into a special purpose trust created by a broker-dealer. In turn, this trust (a) issues floating rate certificates, in face amounts equal to some fraction of the deposited bond’s par amount or market value, that typically pay short-term tax-exempt interest rates to third parties, and (b) issues to a long-term investor (such as the Fund) an inverse floating rate certificate (sometimes referred to as an “inverse floater”) that represents all remaining or residual interest in the trust. The income received by the inverse floater holder varies inversely with the short-term rate paid to the floating rate certificates’ holders, and in most circumstances the inverse floater holder bears substantially all of the underlying bond’s downside investment risk and also benefits disproportionately from any potential appreciation of the underlying bond’s value. The price of an inverse floating rate security will be more volatile than that of the underlying bond because the interest rate is dependent on not only the fixed coupon rate of the underlying bond but also on the short-term interest paid on the floating rate certificates, and because the inverse floating rate security essentially bears the risk of loss of the greater face value of the underlying bond.

The Fund may purchase an inverse floating rate security in a secondary market transaction without first owning the underlying bond (referred to as an “externally-deposited inverse floater”), or instead by first selling a fixed-rate bond to a broker-dealer for deposit into the special purpose trust and receiving in turn the residual interest in the trust (referred to as a “self-deposited inverse floater”). The inverse floater held by the Fund gives the Fund the right (a) to cause the holders of the floating rate certificates to tender their notes at par, and (b) to have the broker transfer the fixed-rate bond held by the trust to the Fund, thereby collapsing the trust.

investment in an externally-deposited inverse floater is identified in the Portfolio of Investments as “(IF) – Inverse floating rate investment.” An investment in a self-deposited inverse floater is accounted for as a financing transaction. In such instances, a fixed-rate bond deposited into a special purpose trust is identified in the Portfolio of Investments as “(UB) – Underlying bond of an inverse floating rate trust reflected as a financing transaction,” with the Fund accounting for the short-term floating rate certificates issued by the trust as “Floating rate obligations” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the Fund reflects in “Investment Income” the entire earnings of the underlying bond and recognizes the related interest paid to the holders of the short-term floating rate certificates as “Interest expense on floating rate obligations” on the Statement of Operations.

During the six months ended January 31, 2012, the Fund invested in externally-deposited inverse floaters and/or self-deposited inverse floaters.

The Fund may also enter into shortfall and forbearance agreements (sometimes referred to as a “recourse trust” or “credit recovery swap”) (such agreements referred to herein as “Recourse Trusts”) with a broker-dealer by which the Fund agrees to reimburse the broker-dealer, in certain circumstances, for the difference between the liquidation value of the fixed-rate bond held by the trust and the liquidation value of the floating rate certificates issued by the trust plus any shortfalls in interest cash flows. Under these agreements, the Fund’s potential exposure to losses related to or on inverse floaters may increase beyond the value of the Fund’s inverse floater investments as the Fund may potentially be liable to fulfill all amounts owed to holders of the floating rate certificates. At period end, any such shortfall is recognized as “Unrealized depreciation on Recourse Trusts” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. At January 31, 2012, the Fund’s maximum exposure to externally-deposited Recourse Trusts was $15,280,000.

The average floating rate obligations outstanding and average annual interest rate and fees related to self-deposited inverse floaters for the Fund during the six months ended January 31, 2012, were as follows:

Average floating rate obligations outstanding	$	1,335,000
Average annual interest rate and fees		0.70	%

Zero Coupon Securities

The Fund is authorized to invest in zero coupon securities. A zero coupon security does not pay a regular interest coupon to its holders during the life of the security. Tax-exempt income to the holder of the security comes from accretion of the difference between the original purchase price of the security at issuance and the par value of the security at maturity and is effectively paid at maturity. The market prices of zero coupon securities generally are more volatile than the market prices of securities that pay interest periodically.

Custodian Fee Credit

The Fund has an arrangement with the custodian bank whereby certain custodian fees and expenses are reduced by net credits earned on the Fund’s cash on deposit with the bank. Such deposit arrangements are an alternative to overnight investments. Credits for cash balances may be offset by charges for any days on which the Fund overdraws its account at the custodian bank.

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.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

2. Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that the Fund would receive 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. A three-tier hierarchy 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 the reporting entity’s own 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 three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

Level 1 –	Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2 –	Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3 –	Significant unobservable inputs (including management’s assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

32 Nuveen Investments

The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following is a summary of the Fund’s fair value measurements as of January 31, 2012:

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Investments:
Municipal Bonds	$	—	$	206,744,051	$	—	$	206,744,051
Short-Term Investments		—		200,270		—		200,270
Total	$	—	$	206,944,321	$	—	$	206,944,321

During the six months ended January 31, 2012, the Fund recognized no significant transfers to or from Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3.

3. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Fund records derivative instruments at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized on the Statement of Operations, when applicable. Even though the Fund’s investments in derivatives may represent economic hedges, they are not considered to be hedge transactions for financial reporting purposes. The Fund did not invest in derivative instruments during the six months ended January 31, 2012.

4. Fund Shares

Transactions in Fund shares were as follows:

	Six Months Ended 1/31/12						Year Ended 7/31/11
	Shares			Amount			Shares			Amount
Shares sold		4,410,917		$	46,374,656			7,482,587		$	75,557,758
Shares issued to shareholders due to reinvestment of distributions		204,550			2,153,580			310,095			3,133,335
Shares redeemed		(1,902,926	)		(20,033,228	)		(4,308,352	)		(43,237,254	)
Net increase (decrease)		2,712,541		$	28,495,008			3,484,330		$	35,453,839

5. Investment Transactions

Purchases and sales (including maturities but excluding short-term investments) during the six months ended January 31, 2012, aggregated $41,457,136 and $19,279,472, respectively.

6. Income Tax Information

The following information is presented on an income tax basis. Differences between amounts for financial statement and federal income tax purposes are primarily due to timing differences in recognizing taxable market discount, timing differences in recognizing certain gains and losses on investment transactions and the treatment of investments in inverse floating rate securities reflected as financing transactions, if any. To the extent that differences arise that are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts as detailed below. Temporary differences do not require reclassification. Temporary and permanent differences do not impact the net asset value of the Fund.

At January 31, 2012, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments, as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:

Cost of investments	$	189,467,067
Gross unrealized:
Appreciation	$	16,394,826
Depreciation		(252,577	)
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments	$	16,142,249

Permanent differences, primarily due to taxable market discount and distribution character reclassifications, resulted in reclassifications among the Fund’s components of net assets at July 31, 2011, the Fund’s last tax year-end, as follows:

Capital paid-in	$	—
Undistributed (Over-distribution of) net investment income		(5,853	)
Accumulated net realized gain (loss)		5,853

Nuveen Investments 33

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)(continued)

The tax components of undistributed net tax-exempt income, net ordinary income and net long-term capital gains at July 31, 2011, the Fund’s last tax year end, were as follows:

Undistributed net tax-exempt income*	$	694,479
Undistributed net ordinary income**		83,277
Undistributed net long-term capital gains		231,327

* Undistributed net tax-exempt income (on a tax basis) has not been reduced for the dividend declared during the period July 1, 2011 through July 31, 2011, and paid on August 1, 2011.

** Net ordinary income consists of taxable market discount income and net short-term capital gains if any.

The tax character of distributions paid during the Fund’s last tax year ended July 31, 2011, was designated for purposes of the dividends paid deduction as follows:

Distributions from net tax-exempt income	$	8,237,720
Distributions from net ordinary income**		330,031
Distributions from net long-term capital gains		1,125,176

** Net ordinary income consists of taxable market discount income and net short-term capital gains, if any.

7. Management Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates

The Adviser does not charge any investment advisory or administrative fees directly to the Fund. The Adviser has agreed irrevocably during the existence of the Fund to waive all fees and pay or reimburse all expenses of the Fund (excluding interest expense, taxes, fees incurred in acquiring and disposing of portfolio securities, and extraordinary expenses). The Adviser is compensated for its services to the Fund from the fee charged at the separately managed account level.

At January 31, 2012, Nuveen owned 10,000 shares of the Fund.

8. New Accounting Pronouncements

Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures

On May 12, 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-04 (“ASU No. 2011-04”) modifying Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. At the same time, the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) issued International Financial Reporting Standard (“IFRS”) 13, Fair Value Measurement. The objective of the FASB and IASB is convergence of their guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures. Specifically, ASU No. 2011-04 requires reporting entities to disclose i) the amounts of any transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 and the reasons for the transfers and ii) for Level 3 fair value measurements, a) quantitative information about significant unobservable inputs used, b) a description of the valuation processes used by the reporting entity and c) a narrative description of the sensitivity of the fair value measurement to changes in unobservable inputs if a change in those inputs might result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. The effective date of ASU No. 2011-04 is for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of this guidance and the impact it will have to the financial statement amounts and footnote disclosures, if any.

Chairman’s

Letter to Shareholders

Dear Shareholders,

These are perplexing times for investors. The global economy continues to struggle. The solutions being implemented in the eurozone to deal with the debt crises of many of its member countries are not yet seen as sufficient by the financial markets. The political paralysis in the U.S. has prevented the compromises necessary to deal with the fiscal imbalance and government spending priorities. The efforts by individual consumers, governments and financial institutions to reduce their debts are increasing savings but reducing demand for the goods and services that drive employment. These developments are undermining the rebuilding of confidence by consumers, corporations and investors that is so essential to a resumption of economic growth.

Although it is painfully slow, progress is being made. In Europe, the turnover of a number of national governments reflects the realization by politicians and voters alike that leaders who practiced business as usual had to be replaced by leaders willing to face problems and accept the hard choices needed to resolve them. The recent coordinated efforts by central banks in the U.S. and Europe to provide liquidity to the largest European banks indicates that these monetary authorities are committed to facilitating a recovery in the European banking sector.

In the U.S., the failure of the congressionally appointed Debt Reduction Committee was a blow to those who hoped for a bipartisan effort to finally begin addressing the looming fiscal crisis. Nevertheless, Congress and the administration cannot ignore the issue for long. The Bush era tax cuts are scheduled to expire on December 31, 2012, and six months later the $1.2 trillion of mandatory across-the-board spending cuts under the Budget Control Act of 2011 begin to go into effect. Any legislative modification would require bipartisan support and the prospects for a bipartisan solution are unclear. The impact of these two developments would be a mixed blessing: a meaningful reduction in the annual budget deficit at the cost of slowing the economic recovery.

It is in these particularly volatile markets that professional investment management is most important. Skillful investment teams who have experienced challenging markets and remain committed to their investment disciplines are critical to the success of an investor’s long-term objectives. In fact, many long-term investment track records are built during challenging markets when managers are able to protect investors against these economic crosscurrents. Experienced investment teams know that volatile markets put a premium on companies and investment ideas that will weather the short-term volatility and that compelling values and opportunities are opened up when markets overreact to negative developments. By maintaining appropriate time horizons, diversification and relying on practiced investment teams, we believe that investors can achieve their long-term investment objectives.

As always, I encourage you to contact your financial consultant if you have any questions about your investment in a Nuveen Fund. On behalf of the other members of your Fund Board, we look forward to continuing to earn your trust in the months and years ahead.

Sincerely,

Robert P. Bremner

Chairman of the Board

Portfolio Manager’s Comments

Certain statements in this report are forward-looking statements. Discussions of specific investments are for illustration only and are not intended as recommendations of individual investments. The forward-looking statements and other views expressed herein are those of the portfolio manager as of the date of this report. Actual future results or occurrences may differ significantly from those anticipated in any forward-looking statements and the views expressed herein are subject to change at any time, due to numerous market and other factors. The Portfolio disclaims any obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements or views expressed herein.

Ratings shown are the highest rating given by one of the following national rating agencies: Standard & Poor’s Group, Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or Fitch, Inc. Credit ratings are subject to change. AAA, AA, A and BBB are investment grade ratings; BB, B, CCC, CC, C and D are below investment grade ratings. Certain bonds backed by U.S. Government or agency securities are regarded as having an implied rating equal to the rating of such securities. Holdings designated N/R are not rated by a national rating agency.

The Portfolio was developed exclusively for use within Nuveen-sponsored separately managed accounts. The Portfolio enables certain Nuveen separately managed account investors to achieve greater diversification and return potential than otherwise might be achievable.

The Portfolio is managed by Nuveen Asset Management, LLC, an affiliate of Nuveen Investments. Timothy Palmer, CFA, serves as manager for the Portfolio. Here Tim, who has more than 25 years of industry experience, discusses the investment strategies and the performance of the Portfolio for the six-month period ended January 31, 2012.

How did the Portfolio perform during the six-month period ended January 31, 2012?

The tables in the Fund Performance and Expense Ratios section of this report provide Class I Share total returns for the Portfolio for the six-month, one-year and since inception periods ended January 31, 2012. The Portfolio’s Class I Share total return underperformed the Barclays Capital Credit/Mortgage Index for the six-month period ended January 31, 2012. A more detailed account of the Portfolio’s performance is provided later in this report.

What strategies were used to manage the Portfolio during the reporting period? How did these strategies influence performance?

Under normal circumstances, the Portfolio will invest at least 80% of its assets in fixed- income securities, including U.S. Treasury and agency bonds, asset backed securities, U.S. agency mortgage backed securities, commercial mortgage backed securities, U.S. investment grade corporate debt securities, U.S. high yield corporate debt securities, U.S. dollar-denominated non-U.S. government bonds, non-U.S. dollar non-U.S. government bonds, emerging market debt, futures, options, interest rate derivatives, currency forwards, total return swaps, credit default swaps, and other short-term securities or instruments.

In managing the Portfolio, we seek to maximize risk-adjusted total return through active management of sector rotation, issue selection and yield curve positioning. We employ a sector team-based process to identify and implement investment opportunities based on rigorous analysis of fixed income markets. The Portfolio invests broadly across sectors, including traditional investment grade bonds, high yield securities, and foreign currencies and bonds.

Heading into the period, we positioned the Portfolio for an ongoing economic expansion as second quarter 2011 corporate earnings were strong, credit metrics across the

Nuveen Investments 5

investment grade and high-yield sectors remained fundamentally supportive, and capital, liquidity and credit trends at financial institutions continued to be constructive. However, fixed income markets experienced a massive flight to quality in August and September, driven by a lack of a credible solution to the European debt crisis, months of Congressional debate about the U.S. debt ceiling and fears of slowing economic growth. U.S. Treasuries rallied and rates plummeted as the market priced in weaker growth and future policy responses. With this backdrop, non-government fixed-income securities endured their worst three-month performance in the third quarter of 2011 since the liquidity crisis of late 2008. High yield and investment grade corporate securities significantly underperformed U.S. Treasuries with financials performing particularly poorly amid the stresses in Europe. In this so-called “risk off” environment, the Portfolio underperformed, particularly due to our overweight position in investment grade corporate securities, with specific emphasis on financials and lower rated, high grade holdings. The Portfolio’s substantial overweight in high yield corporate securities was also detrimental. Additionally, our overweight in foreign bonds and currencies did not prove fruitful in the risk averse environment, despite the strong growth fundamentals, compelling yields and attractive credit profiles of select overseas markets.

In the second half of the reporting period, a combination of improved economic indicators and stabilization in Europe caused a strong rally in the equity markets, paving the way for a contraction in fixed income risk premiums. Fixed income risk assets — particularly high yield corporate securities, but also emerging market (EM) debt and commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) — outpaced U.S. Treasuries by significant margins. In a significant reversal from the previous few months, the Portfolio benefited from its overweight in investment grade corporate securities, particularly the previously noted emphasis on lower rated, investment grade financial sector holdings. An overweight in high yield securities and CMBS also added to results as these asset classes were the top two performers. In addition, foreign currency exposure in some of the strongest performing countries such as Canada and Australia proved beneficial. This environment helped the Portfolio recover some of the underperformance experienced during third quarter’s global market sell off. These sector-driven impacts on portfolio performance were the most significant drivers of return during the period. Interest rate positioning in the portfolio added to return, but was not as significant a driver of relative performance.

We maintained the Portfolio’s overall positioning for an improving economic environment throughout the period. Our ongoing fundamental research conclusions supported our conviction that the turmoil early in the period reflected a short term market overreaction and liquidity withdrawal, rather than a fundamental deterioration in the economic prospects of the positions in the Portfolio. As a result, turnover was relatively low and activity in the Portfolio centered on maintaining key positioning and themes. We continued to evaluate the Portfolio with respect to individual credit and country/currency selection.

We are encouraged by recent improvements in U.S. economic data and expect global growth to remain on track, supporting risk appetite and valuations in financial markets. While there is no near-term fix for the European debt and banking crisis, ongoing fiscal

6 Nuveen Investments

efforts and the provision of substantial liquidity to the banking system may provide a supporting framework that could gradually reduce financial crisis “tail risk” premiums in the market. The markets are likely to increasingly shift their focus toward strong corporate fundamentals and the improved global economic environment. As a result, even though continued market volatility is likely, we expect credit and other non-government sectors of the market to outperform over reasonable investment horizons.

With this outlook in mind, we continue to overweight investment-grade and high-yield corporate bonds as well as structured assets such as asset-backed securities and CMBS. We also remain constructive on select growth-oriented, higher yielding foreign currencies and bonds and see value in emerging market debt. Despite near-term uncertainty and volatility, we believe investors are best served by focusing on the long-term benefits of owning fundamentally sound assets at attractive valuations. As markets stabilize and focus shifts away from global shocks and high asset correlation, we believe individual credit, industry and country/currency selection will exhibit a greater impact on investment performance. In a slow growth global environment, the rising tide will not necessarily lift all boats, so we believe security selection and flexibility will be key.

Despite the historically low interest rates, we will continue to maintain the Portfolio’s duration positioning near that of its benchmark index, given the Federal Reserve’s ongoing provision of substantial liquidity and low inflationary pressures. Our longer-term bias is for moderately higher rates, but future positioning will be dependent on market risk appetite, valuations and the unfolding paths of global growth and policy.

We also invested in various derivative instruments over the course of the period. We invested in credit default swap index positions that earn spread income in exchange for taking the credit default risk of broad investment grade and high yield default swap indexes. These positions had a positive effect on performance in the period as credit strengthened, and these positions were significant in size relative to the total value of the portfolio. We also invested in interest rate swap contracts in a variety of currencies, with maturities ranging from three to ten years, some positioned to benefit if rates rise, others positioned to benefit if rates fall in the underlying country, based on analysis indicating whether rates were relatively high or low compared to future expectations.

We invested in forward foreign currency exchange contracts in a variety of currencies, with settlements ranging from one to three months. Some of these contracts are positioned to benefit if the foreign currencies in the contracts strengthen with respect to the U.S. dollar, while others are positioned to benefit if the foreign currencies weaken with respect to the U.S. dollar, based on analysis indicating whether currencies were relatively high or low compared to future expectations.

During the period, we also invested in U.S Treasury futures to manage the interest rate risk in the Portfolio. We exited out of these positions prior to the close of the reporting period.

Risk Considerations

Mutual fund investing involves risk; principal loss is possible. Debt or fixed income securities are subject to credit risk, market risk, call risk, income risk, and interest rate risk.

Nuveen Investments 7

As interest rates rise, bond prices fall. Credit risk refers to an issuer’s ability to make interest and principal payments when due. Below investment grade or high-yield securities involve liquidity risks and heightened credit risk. Foreign investments involve additional risks, including currency fluctuation, political and economic instability, lack of liquidity and differing legal and accounting standards. Asset-backed and mortgage- backed securities are subject to additional risks such as prepayment risk, liquidity risk, default risk and adverse economic developments. The potential use of derivative instruments involves a high degree of financial risk, including the risk that the loss on a derivative may be greater than the principal amount invested.

Yields(Unaudited)as of January 31, 2012

Dividend Yield is the most recent dividend per share (annualized) divided by the offering price per share.

The SEC 30-Day Yield is a standardized measure of the Fund’s yield that accounts for the future amortization of premiums or discounts of bonds held in the Fund’s portfolio. The SEC 30-Day Yield is computed under an SEC standardized formula and is based on the maximum offer price per share. Dividend Yield may differ from the SEC 30-Day Yield because the Fund may be paying out more or less than it is earning and it may not include the effect of amortization of bond premium.

	Dividend Yield		SEC 30-Day Yield
Class I Shares		6.63%		5.78%

Expense Examples (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including up-front and back-end sales charges (loads) or redemption fees, where applicable; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service (12b-1) fees, where applicable; and other Fund expenses. The Example below is 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 mutual funds.

The Example below is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the period.

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 the Fund’s actual expense ratio 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 table 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.

			Hypothetical Performance
	Actual Performance		(5% annualized return before expenses)
Beginning Account Value (8/01/11)	$	1,000.00	$	1,000.00
Ending Account Value (1/31/12)	$	1,044.80	$	1,025.14
Expenses Incurred During Period	$	—	$	—

Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized net expense ratio of 0.00% for the six month period.

(1) All percentages shown in the Portfolio of Investments are based on net assets.

(2) Ratings: Using the highest of Standard & Poor’s Group (“Standard & Poor’s”), Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) or Fitch, Inc. (“Fitch”) rating. Ratings below BBB by Standard & Poor’s, Baa by Moody’s or BBB by Fitch are considered to be below investment grade. Holdings designated N/R are not rated by any of these national rating agencies.

(3) Optional Call Provisions: Dates (month and year) and prices of the earliest optional call or redemption. There may be other call provisions at varying prices at later dates. Certain mortgage-backed securities may be subject to periodic principal paydowns.

(5) Other Assets Less Liabilities includes the Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) of derivative instruments as noted in Investments in Derivatives at January 31, 2012.

(6) The credit spread generally serves as an indication of the current status of the payment/performance risk and therefore the likelihood of default of the credit derivative. The credit spread also reflects the cost of buying/selling protection and may include upfront payments required to be made to enter into a credit default swap contract. Higher credit spreads are indicative of a higher likelihood of performance by the seller of protection.

(7) The Fund entered into the credit default swap to gain investment exposure to the referenced entity. Selling protection has a similar credit risk position to owning that referenced entity. Buying protection has a similar credit risk position to selling the referenced entity short.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1. General Information and Significant Accounting Policies

General Information

The Nuveen Managed Accounts Portfolios Trust (the “Trust”) is an open-end investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Trust is comprised of Enhanced Multi-Strategy Income Managed Accounts Portfolio (“Enhanced Multi-Strategy Income”) (the “Fund”), among others. The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts business trust on November 14, 2006.

The Fund is developed exclusively for use within Nuveen-sponsored separately managed accounts. The Fund is a specialized Fund to be used in combination with selected individual securities to effectively model institutional-level investment strategies. The Fund enables certain Nuveen separately managed account investors to achieve greater diversification and return potential than smaller managed accounts might otherwise achieve by using lower quality, higher yielding securities and to gain access to special investment opportunities normally available only to institutional investors.

The Fund’s primary investment objective is total return, with current income as a secondary objective. Under normal conditions, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets in fixed income securities. The Fund will invest in various types of debt securities, including U.S. Treasury and U.S. agency bonds, U.S. investment grade corporate debt securities, U.S. high yield corporate debt securities, U.S. dollar-denominated non-U.S. government bonds, non-U.S. dollar non-U.S. government bonds, emerging market debt, futures contracts, options, interest rate derivatives, currency forwards, total return swaps, credit default swaps, and other short-term securities. In addition, the Fund may invest a substantial portion of its assets in mortgage-backed securities, including U.S. agency mortgage backed securities and commercial mortgage backed securities. The Fund may also engage in repurchase, reverse repurchase, dollar rolls and forward purchase agreements (these investments will generally be short-term in nature and are primarily used to seek to enhance total return and manage liquidity).

In investing in non-U.S. dollar instruments, Nuveen Asset Management, LLC (the “Sub-Adviser”) a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nuveen Fund Advisors, Inc. (the “Adviser”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nuveen Investments, Inc. (“Nuveen”), may elect to hedge the currency exposure through the use of currency forward contracts, futures, and other hedging instruments, including, but not limited to, options, interest rate and total return swaps, and similar instruments.

The Fund may invest up to 50% of its net assets in securities that are rated below investment grade or securities that are unrated but deemed by the Sub-Adviser to be of equivalent quality. Such securities are commonly referred to as “high-yield” securities or “junk bonds”, which includes U.S. and non-U.S. high yield corporate bonds and securities. The Fund may invest up to 25% of its net assets in the debt of non-U.S. issuers, including up to 25% of its net assets in obligations of non-U.S. entities that are located in emerging markets. These limits apply only at the time of any specific new investments.

The Sub-Adviser expects the average credit quality of the Fund to be rated between A and AA. Under normal market conditions, the Sub-Adviser expects the Fund to maintain an intermediate term average duration, which will generally fall within four to seven years.

The Fund may use a variety of investment techniques to seek to hedge or help protect against declines in portfolio value due to its exposure to interest rate movements, movements in the securities markets and non-U.S. currency exposure. These techniques include the use of derivative instruments, such as interest rate swap transactions, futures contracts, options on futures and non-U.S. exchange transactions on a cash or forward basis, and credit default swaps.

The Fund’s most recent prospectus provides further description of the Fund’s investment objective, principal investment strategies and principal risks.

Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”).

Investment Valuation

Prices of fixed-income securities, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and swap contracts are provided by a pricing service approved by the Fund’s Board of Trustees. These securities are generally classified as Level 2 for fair value measurement purposes. When price quotes are not readily available, the pricing service establishes 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, the pricing service may consider information about a security, its issuer, or market activity, provided by the Adviser. These securities are generally classified as Level 2 or Level 3 depending on the priority of the significant inputs.

Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the net asset value (NAV) of the Fund’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. The value of securities traded in markets outside the United States or denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar may be affected significantly on a day that the NYSE is closed and an investor is not able to purchase, redeem or

24 Nuveen Investments

exchange shares. If significant market events occur between the time of determination of the closing price of a foreign security on an exchange and the time that the Fund’s NAV is determined, or if under the Fund’s procedures, the closing price of a foreign security is not deemed to be reliable, the security would be valued at fair value as determined in accordance with procedures established in good faith by the Fund’s Board of Trustees. These securities are generally classified as Level 2 or Level 3 depending on the priority of the significant inputs.

The value of exchange-traded options are based on the mean of the closing bid and ask prices. Futures contracts are valued using the closing settlement price or, in the absence of such a price, the last traded price. Exchange-traded options and futures contracts are generally classified as Level 1. Options traded in the over-the-counter market are valued using an evaluated mean price and are generally classified as Level 2.

Repurchase agreements are valued at contract amount plus accrued interest, which approximates market value. These securities are generally classified as Level 2.

Certain securities may not be able to be priced by the pre-established pricing methods as described above. Such securities may be valued by the Fund’s Board of Trustees or its designee at fair value. These securities generally include, but are not limited to, restricted securities (securities which may not be publicly sold without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) for which a pricing service is unable to provide a market price; securities whose trading has been formally suspended; debt securities that have gone into default and for which there is no current market quotation; a security whose market price is not available from a pre-established pricing source; a security with respect to which an event has occurred that is likely to materially affect the value of the security after the market has closed but before the calculation of the Fund’s net asset value (as may be the case in non-U.S. markets on which the security is primarily traded) or make it difficult or impossible to obtain a reliable market quotation; and a security whose price, as provided by the pricing service, is not deemed to reflect the security’s fair value. As a general principle, the fair value of a security would appear to be 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. These securities are generally classified as Level 2 or Level 3 depending on the priority of the significant inputs. Regardless of the method employed to value a particular security, all valuations are subject to review by the Fund’s Board of Trustees or its designee.

Refer to Footnote 2 – Fair Value Measurements for further details on the leveling of securities held by the Fund as of the end of the reporting period.

Investment Transactions

Investment transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses from transactions are determined on the specific identification method, which is the same basis used for federal income tax purposes. Investments purchased on a when-issued/delayed delivery basis may have extended settlement periods. Any investments so purchased are subject to market fluctuation during this period. The Fund has instructed the custodian to segregate assets with a current value at least equal to the amount of the when-issued/delayed delivery purchase commitments. At January 31, 2012, the Fund had outstanding when-issued/delayed delivery purchase commitments of $1,461,323.

Investment Income

Investment income, which reflects the amortization of premiums and includes accretion of discounts for financial reporting purposes, is recorded on an accrual basis. Investment income also includes paydown gains and losses, if any.

Income Taxes

The Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and net capital gains to shareholders and to 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.

For all open tax years and all major taxing jurisdictions, management of the Fund has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the financial statements. Open tax years are those that are open for examination by taxing authorities (i.e., generally the last four tax year ends and the interim tax period since then). Furthermore, management of the Fund is also not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders

The Fund declares dividends from net investment income daily and pays shareholders monthly. Fund shares begin to accrue dividends on the business day after the day when the monies used to purchase Fund shares are collected by the Fund’s transfer agent.

Net realized capital gains from investment transactions, if any, are declared and distributed to shareholders at least annually. Furthermore, capital gains are distributed only to the extent they exceed available capital loss carryforwards.

Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount and timing of distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (continued)

Dollar Roll Transactions

The Fund is authorized to enter into dollar roll transactions (“dollar rolls”) in which the Fund purchases or sells mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) for delivery in the future and simultaneously contracts to sell or repurchase a substantially similar (same type, coupon, and maturity) MBS on a different specified future date. Dollar rolls are identified in the Portfolio of Investments as “MDR”, when applicable. During the roll period, the Fund foregoes principal and interest paid on the MBS. The Fund is compensated by fee income or the difference between the current sales price and the lower forward price for the future purchase. Such compensation is amortized over the life of the dollar rolls and is recognized as a component of “Investment Income” on the Statement of Operations. Dollar rolls are valued daily.

Dollar rolls involve the risk that the market value of the MBS the Fund is obligated to repurchase under an agreement may decline below the repurchase price. These transactions also involve some risk to the Fund if the other party should default on its obligation and the Fund is delayed or prevented from completing the transaction. In the event that the buyer of securities under a dollar roll files for bankruptcy or becomes insolvent, the Fund’s use of proceeds of the dollar roll may be restricted pending a determination by the other party, or its trustee or receiver, whether to enforce the Fund’s obligation to repurchase the securities.

Foreign Currency Transactions

The Fund is authorized to engage in foreign currency exchange transactions, including foreign currency exchange contracts, futures, options and swap contracts. To the extent that the Fund invests in securities and/or contracts that are denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars, the Fund will be subject to currency risk, which is the risk that an increase in the U.S. dollar relative to the foreign currency will reduce returns or portfolio value. Generally, when the U.S. dollar rises in value against a foreign currency, the Fund’s investments denominated in that currency will lose value because its currency is worth fewer U.S. dollars; the opposite effect occurs if the U.S. dollar falls in relative value. Investments and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are converted into U.S. dollars on a spot (i.e. cash) basis at the spot rate prevailing in the foreign currency exchange market at the time of valuation. Purchases and sales of investments and income denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars on the respective dates of such transactions.

The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currencies, investments and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at 4:00 p.m. Eastern time. Investments, income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. Net realized foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates 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 Fund and the amounts actually received.

The realized gains and losses resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and changes in foreign exchange rates associated with other assets and liabilities on investments, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, options written, swaps, and swaptions written are recognized as a component of “Net realized gain (loss) from investments and foreign currency” on the Statement of Operations, when applicable.

The unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and changes in foreign exchange rates associated with other assets and liabilities on investments 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 forward foreign currency exchange contracts, options written, swaps and swaptions written are recognized as a component of “Change in net unrealized appreciation (deprecation) of forward foreign currency exchange contracts, options written, swaps and swaptions written,” respectively, on the Statement of Operations, when applicable.

Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts

The Fund is subject to foreign currency exchange rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives and is authorized to enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts in an attempt to manage such risk under two circumstances: (i) when the Fund enters into a contract for the purchase or sale of a security denominated in a foreign currency to “lock in” the U.S. exchange rate of the transaction, with such period being a short-dated contract covering the period between transaction date and settlement date; or (ii) when the Sub-Adviser believes that the currency of a particular foreign country may experience a substantial movement against the U.S. dollar or against another foreign currency. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued daily at the forward rate and are recognized as a component of “Unrealized appreciation or depreciation on forward foreign currency exchange contracts” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The change in value of the contracts during the reporting period is recognized as a component of “Change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of forward foreign currency exchange contracts” on the Statement of Operations. When the contract is closed or offset with the same counterparty, the Fund recognizes the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was entered and the value at the time it was closed or offset as a component of “Net realized gain (loss) from forward foreign currency exchange contracts” on the Statement of Operations.

Forward foreign currency exchange contracts will generally not be entered into for terms greater than three months, but may have maturities of up to six months or more. The use of forward foreign currency exchange contracts does not eliminate fluctuations in the underlying prices of the Fund’s investment securities; however, it does establish a rate of exchange that can be achieved in the future. The use of forward foreign currency exchange contracts involves the risk that anticipated currency movements will not be accurately predicted. A forward foreign currency exchange contract would limit the risk of loss due to a decline in the value of a particular currency; however, it also would limit any potential gain that might result should the value of the currency increase instead of

26 Nuveen Investments

decrease. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized appreciation or depreciation reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Forward foreign currency contracts are subject to counterparty risk if the counterparty fails to perform as specified in the contract due to financial impairment or other reason.

During the six months ended January 31, 2012, the Fund was invested in forward foreign currency exchange contracts in a variety of currencies, with settlements ranging from one to three months. Some of these contracts are positioned to benefit if the foreign currencies in the contracts strengthen with respect to the U.S. dollar, while others are positioned to benefit if the foreign currencies weaken with respect to the U.S. dollar, based on analysis indicating whether currencies were relatively high or low compared to future expectations.

The average number of forward foreign currency exchange contracts outstanding during the six months ended January 31, 2012, was as follows:

Average number of forward foreign currency exchange contracts outstanding* 11

* The average number of outstanding contracts is calculated based on the outstanding contracts at the beginning of the fiscal year and at the end of each fiscal quarter within the current fiscal year.

Refer to Footnote 3 – Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities for further details on forward foreign currency exchange contract activity.

Futures Contracts

The Fund is subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives and is authorized to invest in futures contracts in attempt to manage such risk. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit with the broker an amount of cash or liquid securities equal to a specified percentage of the contract amount. This is known as the “initial margin.” Cash held by the broker to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts, if any, is recognized as “Deposits with brokers for open futures contracts” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Subsequent payments (“variation margin”) are made or received by the Fund each day, depending on the daily fluctuation of the value of the contract. Variation margin is recognized as a receivable or payable for “Variation margin on futures contracts” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, when applicable.

During the period the futures contract is open, changes in the value of the contract are recorded as an unrealized gain or loss by “marking-to-market” on a daily basis to reflect the changes in market value of the contract and is recognized as “Change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of futures contracts” on the Statement of Operations. When the contract is closed or expired, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract on the closing date and value of the contract when originally entered into and is recognized as “Net realized gain (loss) from futures contracts” on the Statement of Operations.

Risks of investments in futures contracts include the possible adverse movement of the securities or indices underlying the contracts, the possibility that there may not be a liquid secondary market for the contracts and/or that a change in the value of the contract may not correlate with a change in the value of the underlying securities or indices.

During the six months ended January 31, 2012, the Fund was invested in two-month U.S. Treasury note and bond futures contracts designed to benefit if interest rates at the ten year point of the yield curve rose more than rates at the two and thirty year points.

The average number of futures contracts outstanding during the six months ended January 31, 2012, was as follows:

Average number of futures contracts outstanding* 2

* The average number of outstanding contracts is calculated based on the outstanding contracts at the beginning of the fiscal year and at the end of each fiscal quarter within the current fiscal year.

Refer to Footnote 3 – Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities for further details on futures contract activity.

Options Transactions

The Fund is subject to foreign currency risk and interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives and is authorized to purchase and write (sell) call and put options on securities, futures contracts, swaps or currencies in an attempt to manage such risk. The purchase of options involves the risk of loss of all or a part of the cash paid for the options (the premium). The market risk associated with purchasing options and/or swaptions is limited to the premium paid. The counterparty credit risk of purchasing options and/or swaptions, however, needs also to take into account the current value of the option, as this is the performance expected from the counterparty. When the Fund purchases an option and/or swaption, an amount equal to the premium paid (the premium plus commission) is recognized as a component of “Options and/or Swaptions purchased, at value” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. When the Fund writes an option and/or swaption, an amount equal to the net premium received (the premium less commission) is recognized as a component of “Options and/or Swaptions written, at value” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and is subsequently adjusted to reflect the current value of the written option and/or swaption until the option and/or swaption is exercised or expires or the Fund enters into a closing purchase transaction. The changes in the value of options and/or swaptions purchased during the reporting period are recognized as a component of “Change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of options and/or swaptions purchased” on the Statement of Operations. The changes in the value of options and/or swaptions written during the reporting period are recognized as a component of “Change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of options and/or swaptions written” on the Statement of Operations. When an option and/or swaption is exercised or

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (continued)

expires or the Fund enters into a closing purchase transaction, the difference between the net premium received and any amount paid at expiration or on executing a closing purchase transaction, including commission, is recognized as a component of “Net realized gain (loss) from options and/or swaptions purchased and/or written” on the Statement of Operations. The Fund, as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying instrument may be sold (called) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the risk of an unfavorable change in the market value of the instrument underlying the written option and/or swaption. There is also the risk the Fund may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market. During the six months ended January 31, 2012, the Fund did not purchase or write any options and/or swaptions.

Swap Contracts

The Fund is authorized to enter into swap contracts consistent with its investment objectives and policies to reduce, increase or otherwise alter its risk profile or to alter its portfolio characteristics (i.e. duration, yield curve positioning and credit quality).

Interest Rate Swaps

The Fund is subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives and policies in an attempt to obtain a desired return at a lower cost than if the Fund had invested directly in the asset that yielded the desired return. In connection with these contracts, securities in the Fund’s portfolio of investments may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap contract. Interest rate swap contracts involve the exchange by the Fund with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest (i.e., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to a specified notional amount of principal). Interest rate swap contracts are valued daily. The Fund accrues daily the periodic payments expected to be paid and received on each interest rate swap contract and recognize the daily change in the market value of the Fund’s contractual rights and obligations under the contracts. The net amount recorded on these transactions for each counterparty is recognized on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a component of “Unrealized appreciation or depreciation on interest rate swaps” with the change during the reporting period recognized on the Statement of Operations as a component of “Change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of swaps” on the Statement of Operations. Income received or paid by the Fund is recognized as a component of “Net realized gain (loss) from swaps” on the Statement of Operations, in addition to the net realized gains and losses recognized upon the termination of a interest rate swap contract and are equal to the difference between the Fund’s basis in the interest rate swap and the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction. The amount of the payment obligation is based on the notional amount of the interest rate swap contract. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are recognized as a component of “Interest rate swap premiums paid and/or received” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, when applicable. For tax purposes, periodic payments are treated as ordinary income or expense.

During the six months ended January 31, 2012, the Fund was invested in interest rate swap contracts in a variety of currencies, with maturities ranging from three to ten years, some positioned to benefit if rates rise, others positioned to benefit if rates fall in the underlying country, based on analysis indicating whether rates were relatively high or low compared to future expectations.

The average number of interest rate swap contracts outstanding during the six months ended January 31, 2012, was as follows:

Average number of interest rate swap contracts outstanding* 4

* The average number of outstanding contracts is calculated based on the outstanding contracts at the beginning of the fiscal year and at the end of each fiscal quarter within the current fiscal year.

Credit Default Swaps

The Fund is subject to credit risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The Fund may enter into a credit default swap contract to seek to maintain a total return on a particular investment or portion of its portfolio, or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default. Credit default swap contracts involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return if/when there is a credit event by a third party. Generally, a credit event means bankruptcy, failure to pay, or restructuring. The specific credit events applicable for each credit default swap are stated in the terms of the particular swap agreement. As a purchaser of a credit default swap contract, the Fund pays to the counterparty a periodic interest fee based on the notional amount of the credit default swap. This interest fee is accrued daily and recognized with the daily change in the market value of the contract as a component of “Unrealized appreciation or depreciation on credit default swaps” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and is recorded as a realized loss upon payment. Upon occurrence of a specific credit event with respect to the underlying referenced entity, the Fund is obligated to deliver that security, or an equivalent amount of cash, to the counterparty in exchange for receipt of the notional amount from the counterparty. The difference between the value of the security delivered and the notional amount received is recorded as a realized gain. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are recognized as a component of “Credit default swap premiums paid and/or received” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, when applicable. As a seller of a credit default swap contract, the Fund generally receives from the counterparty a periodic interest fee based on the notional amount of the credit default swap. This interest fee is accrued daily as a component of unrealized appreciation or depreciation and is recorded as a realized gain upon payment. Upon occurrence of a specific credit event with respect to the underlying referenced entity, the Fund will either receive that security, or an equivalent amount of cash, from the counterparty in exchange for payment of the notional amount to the counterparty, or pay a net settlement amount of the credit default swap contract less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index. The difference between the value of the security received and the notional amount paid is recorded as a realized loss. Changes in the value of a credit default swap during the reporting period are recognized as a component of

28 Nuveen Investments

“Change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of swaps”, and realized gains and losses are recognized as a component of “Net realized gain (loss) from swaps” on the Statement of Operations. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Fund could incur as a seller of protection in a credit default swap contract is limited to the notional amount of the contract. The maximum potential amount would be offset by the recovery value, if any, of the respective referenced entity.

During the six months ended January 31, 2012, the Fund was invested in credit default swap index positions that earn spread income in exchange for taking the credit default risk of broad investment grade and high yield credit default swap indices. This had a positive effect on performance in the period as credit strengthened and these positions were significant in size relative to the total value of the portfolio.

The average notional amount of credit default swap contracts outstanding during the six months ended January 31, 2012, was as follows:

Average notional amount of credit default swap contracts outstanding* $ 3,079,333

* The average notional amount is calculated based on the outstanding notional at the beginning of the fiscal year and at the end of each fiscal quarter within the current fiscal year.

Refer to Footnote 3 – Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities for further details on swap contract activity.

Market and Counterparty Credit Risk

In the normal course of business the 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 the Fund to counterparty credit risk, consist principally of cash due from counterparties on forward, option and swap transactions, when applicable. The extent of the 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. Futures contracts, when applicable, expose the Fund to minimal counterparty credit risk as they are exchange traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, which is counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees the futures contracts against default.

The 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 the Fund with a value approximately equal to the amount of any unrealized gain above a pre-determined threshold. Reciprocally, when the Fund has an unrealized loss, the Fund has instructed the custodian to pledge assets of the Fund 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.

Zero Coupon Securities

The Fund is authorized to invest in zero coupon securities. A zero coupon security does not pay a regular interest coupon to its holders during the life of the security. Income to the holder of the security comes from accretion of the difference between the original purchase price of the security at issuance and the par value of the security at maturity and is effectively paid at maturity. The market prices of zero coupon securities generally are more volatile than the market prices of securities that pay interest periodically.

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.

Custodian Fee Credit

The Fund has an arrangement with the custodian bank whereby certain custodian fees and expenses are reduced by net credits earned on the Fund’s cash on deposit with the bank. Such deposit arrangements are an alternative to overnight investments. Credits for cash balances may be offset by charges for any days on which the Fund overdraws its account at the custodian bank.

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.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

2. Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that the Fund would receive 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. A three-tier hierarchy 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 the reporting entity’s own 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 three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

Level 1 –	Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2 –	Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3 –	Significant unobservable inputs (including management’s assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The following is a summary of the Fund’s fair value measurements as of January 31, 2012:

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Investments:
Corporate Bonds	$	—	$	3,001,348	$	—	$	3,001,348

	$	—	$	6,991,713	$	—	$	6,991,713

* Represents net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as reported in the Fund’s Portfolio of Investments.

During the six months ended January 31, 2012, the Fund recognized no significant transfers to or from Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3.

3. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Fund records derivative instruments at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized on the Statement of Operations, when applicable. Even though the Fund’s investments in derivatives may represent economic hedges, they are not considered to be hedge transactions for financial reporting purposes. For additional information on the derivative instruments in which the Fund was invested during and at the end of the reporting period, refer to the Portfolio of Investments, Financial Statements and Footnote 1 – General Information and Significant Accounting Policies.

The following table presents the fair value of all derivative instruments held by the Fund as of January 31, 2012, the location of these instruments on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, and the primary underlying risk exposure.

		Location on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities
Underlying Risk Exposure	Derivative Instrument	Asset Derivatives			Liability Derivatives
		Location	Value		Location	Value
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate	Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts	Unrealized appreciation on forward foreign currency exchange contracts	$	24,577	Unrealized depreciation on forward foreign currency exchange contracts	$	2,382
Interest Rate	Swaps	Unrealized appreciation on interest rate swaps*		38,843	Unrealized depreciation on interest rate swaps*		—
Credit	Swaps	Unrealized appreciation on credit default swaps*		115,454	Unrealized depreciation on credit default swaps*		—
Total			$	178,874		$	2,382

* Value represents cumulative gross unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of swap contracts as reported in the Fund’s Portfolio of Investments. Some swap contracts require a counterparty to pay or receive a premium, which is disclosed on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities but is not reflected in the cumulative gross unrealized appreciation (depreciation) presented above.

6. Income Tax Information

The following information is presented on an income tax basis. Differences between amounts for financial statement and federal income tax purposes are primarily due to the treatment of foreign currency transaction gains and losses, amortization of premium and timing and character differences in recognizing certain gains and losses on investment transactions. To the extent that differences arise that are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts as detailed below. Temporary differences do not require reclassification. Temporary and permanent differences do not impact the net asset value of the Fund.

Nuveen Investments 31

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (continued)

At January 31, 2012, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments (excluding investments in derivatives), as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:

Cost of investments	$	6,596,552
Gross unrealized:
Appreciation		328,987
Depreciation		(110,318	)
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments	$	218,669

Permanent differences, primarily due to federal taxes paid, treatment of notional principal contracts and foreign currency reclassifications resulted in reclassifications among the Fund’s components of net assets at July 31, 2011, the Fund’s last tax year end, as follows:

Capital paid-in	$	(1,764	)
Undistributed (Over–distribution of) net investment income		95,163
Accumulated net realized gain (loss)		(93,399	)

The tax components of undistributed net ordinary income and net long-term capital gains at July 31, 2011, the Fund’s last tax year end, were as follows:

Undistributed net ordinary income*	$	114,558
Undistributed net long-term capital gains		200,059

* Undistributed net ordinary income (on a tax basis) has not been reduced for the dividend declared during the period July 1, 2011 through July 31, 2011 and paid on August 1, 2011. Net ordinary income consists of net taxable income derived from dividends, interest, and net short-term capital gains, if any.

The tax character of distributions paid during the Fund’s last tax year ended July 31, 2011, was designated for purposes of the dividends paid deduction as follows:

Distributions from net ordinary income*	$	615,960
Distributions from net long-term capital gains		322,950

* Net ordinary income consists of net taxable income derived from dividends, interest, and net short-term capital gains, if any.

7. Management Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates

The Adviser and Sub-Adviser do not charge any investment advisory or administrative fees directly to the Fund. The Adviser has also agreed irrevocably during the existence of the Fund to waive all fees and pay or reimburse all expenses of the Fund (excluding interest expense, taxes, fees incurred in acquiring and disposing of investment portfolio securities and extraordinary expenses). The Adviser and Sub-Adviser are compensated for their services to the Fund from the fee charged at the separately managed account level.

At January 31, 2012, Nuveen owned all shares of the Fund.

8. New Accounting Pronouncements

Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Reconsideration of Effective Control for Repurchase Agreements

On April 15, 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-03 (“ASU No. 2011-03”). The guidance in ASU No. 2011-03 is intended to improve the accounting for repurchase agreements and other similar agreements. Specifically, ASU No. 2011-03 modifies the criteria for determining when these transactions would be accounted for as financing transactions (secured borrowings/lending agreements) as opposed to sale (purchase) transactions with commitments to repurchase (resell). The effective date of ASU No. 2011-03 is for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of this guidance and the impact it will have to the financial statement amounts and footnote disclosures, if any.

Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures

On May 12, 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04 modifying Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. At the same time, the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) issued International Financial Reporting Standard (“IFRS”) 13, Fair Value Measurement. The objective of the FASB and IASB is convergence of their guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures. Specifically, ASU No. 2011-04 requires reporting entities to disclose i) the amounts of any transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 and the reasons for the transfers ii) for Level 3 fair value measurements, a) quantitative information about significant unobservable inputs used, b) a description of the valuation processes used by the reporting entity and c) a narrative description of the sensitivity of the fair value measurement to changes in unobservable inputs if a change in those inputs might result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. The effective date of ASU No. 2011-04 is for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of this guidance and the impact it will have to the financial statement amounts and footnote disclosures, if any.
