The section of each prospectus entitled “How We Manage Your Money – Who Manages the Fund” is hereby amended to reflect the information set forth in this supplement. This supplement replaces the prospectus and summary prospectus supplement dated August 19, 2014.

On April 14, 2014, TIAA-CREF, a national financial services organization, announced that it had entered into a purchase agreement to acquire Nuveen Investments, Inc., the parent company of the funds’ investment adviser, Nuveen Fund Advisors, LLC. The acquisition closed on October 1, 2014 and Nuveen Investments became an indirect subsidiary of TIAA-CREF.


Because the consummation of the acquisition resulted in the “assignment” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940) and automatic termination of the funds’ investment management agreements and investment sub-advisory agreements, fund shareholders were asked to approve new investment management agreements with Nuveen Fund Advisors, LLC and new investment sub-advisory agreements with each fund’s sub-adviser. Except as noted below, these new agreements were approved by shareholders of each of the funds, and went into effect on October 1, 2014. The terms of the new agreements, including the fees payable to each fund’s adviser and sub-adviser, are substantially identical to those of the investment management agreements and investment sub-advisory agreements in place immediately prior to the closing.

The following funds have not yet received sufficient votes to approve new investment management agreements and investment sub-advisory agreements:

Nuveen Equity Long/Short Fund*

Nuveen Mid Cap Index Fund

Nuveen Small Cap Index Fund

Nuveen NWQ Large-Cap Value Fund

The foregoing funds continue to seek shareholder approval of the new investment management agreements and investment sub-advisory agreements. In order assure continuing advisory services for the funds following the closing of the transaction, interim investment management agreements with Nuveen Fund Advisors, LLC and interim investment sub-advisory agreements with the funds’ respective sub-advisers were put in place. These interim agreements, which became effective on October 1, 2014, were approved by the funds’ Board of Directors/Trustees on April 30, 2014. Each fund’s interim investment management agreement and investment sub-advisory agreement contain terms substantially identical to the fund’s investment management agreement and investment sub-advisory agreement in effect immediately prior to the closing, and to the fund’s proposed new investment management and investment sub-advisory agreements, except for the term and escrow provisions described below. For each fund, the interim agreements will continue in effect for a term ending on the earlier of February 28, 2015 (150 days following the closing of the transaction) or when shareholder approval of the new investment management agreement and investment sub-advisory agreement is obtained. Compensation earned by the investment adviser or sub-adviser under an interim agreement will be held in an interest-bearing escrow account. If shareholders of a fund approve the new investment management and investment sub-advisory agreements prior to February 28, 2015, the amount held in the escrow accounts will be paid to the fund’s investment adviser and sub-adviser. If shareholders of a fund do not approve the new investment management agreement and new sub-advisory agreement prior to February 28, 2015, the Board of Directors/Trustees of the Fund will take such action as it deems to be in the best interests of the fund and the fund’s investment adviser and sub-adviser will be paid the lesser of their costs incurred in performing their services under the interim agreements or the total amount in the escrow accounts, plus interest earned.

 

* Shareholders of Nuveen Equity Long/Short Fund have approved a new investment management agreement, but have not yet approved a new investment sub-advisory agreement. Consequently, an interim investment sub-advisory agreement will be put in place for this fund on October 1, 2014.
