Chairman’s Letter

to Shareholders

 

LOGO

Dear Shareholders,

Asset prices have steadily climbed this year, propelled by a “Goldilocks” economic scenario that enabled markets to sidestep geopolitical tensions, natural disasters, terrorism events and political noise. The U.S. economy continued to run not too hot, not too cold, with steady growth and low levels of unemployment, inflation and interest rates. Corporate earnings have been healthy and recession risk appeared low. At the same time, growth across the rest of the world has improved as well, leading to upward revisions in global growth projections.

Yet, a global synchronized recovery also brings the prospect of higher inflation. Central banks have to manage the delicate balance between too-loose financial conditions, which risks economies overheating, and too-tight conditions, which could trigger recession. The nominee for Chairman of the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed), Jerome Powell, is largely expected to maintain the course set by Chair Janet Yellen after her term expires in February 2018. However, uncertainties about fiscal policy remain, particularly as Congress is currently working on a tax overhaul plan. Depending on the details of a tax bill and whether it passes, the Fed’s job of managing interest rates could become more complicated in the years ahead.

Meanwhile, politics will remain in the forefront. The U.S. debt ceiling debate resumes in December 2017 when the current extension of the debt limit expires, and rebuilding continues in the wake of Hurricanes Harvey, Irma and Maria. The ongoing “Brexit” negotiations and the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) talks may impact key trade and political partnerships. Tensions with North Korea may continue to flare.

The magnitude of the market’s bullishness this year has been somewhat surprising. But gains may not be so easy in the coming years. Nobody can predict market shifts, which is why Nuveen encourages you to talk to your financial advisor to ensure your investment portfolio is appropriately diversified for your objectives, time horizon and risk tolerance. On behalf of the other members of the Nuveen Fund Board, we look forward to continuing to earn your trust in the months and years ahead.

Sincerely,

Portfolio Managers’ Comments (continued)

 

The Fund’s duration (interest rate) and yield curve positioning were key drivers of its outperformance of the index. The portfolio had a longer-than-benchmark duration, which positioned it to more fully benefit from the positive effects of stable-to-declining longer-term interest rates. Additionally, the Fund’s overweighting in securities six years and longer added value as bonds in this maturity range outpaced shorter-maturity securities, in which the Fund was underweighted.

Credit quality positioning added to relative performance as well, as the Fund was overweight bonds with more credit risk, particularly in the A and BBB rating categories. These securities, bolstered by strong investor demand for yield and issuers’ mostly stable-to-improving credit fundamentals, generally outpaced higher quality securities, where the Fund had a smaller-than-benchmark exposure. The portfolio’s significant overweighting in non-investment grade securities was another positive performance factor, given that they generally posted higher total returns than their investment grade counterparts.

Adding to the Fund’s favorable results from below investment grade securities was positive security selection. For example, large overweightings in bonds issued by Chicago Board of Education, City of Chicago, Metropolitan Pier & Exposition Authority and State of Illinois posted strong gains after Illinois state lawmakers signed a budget bill ending a two-year legislative standoff.

The Fund’s lack of exposure to Puerto Rico bonds, most of which carry a below investment grade rating, proved beneficial as well. The island’s fiscal and economic woes deepened throughout the reporting period and were exacerbated by the extensive hurricane damage. Owning unrated American Dream bonds, issued for the development of a shopping and entertainment center in New Jersey’s Meadowlands, further boosted results. A modest exposure of FirstEnergy Solutions bonds was additive, as they staged a partial comeback from distressed levels.

In terms of sector selection, overweighting the outperforming health care, industrial development revenue/pollution control revenue (IDR/PCR), and charter school segments contributed to the Fund’s outperformance of the index. In contrast, our larger-than-index exposure to tobacco bonds detracted, as the sector lagged. Similarly, our overweight position in pre-refunded bonds hurt performance, which trailed the benchmark given their high quality and short durations.

Nuveen Inflation Protected Municipal Bond Fund

For the six-month reporting period ended September 30, 2017, the Nuveen Inflation Protected Municipal Bond Fund’s Class A Shares at NAV underperformed the Bloomberg Barclays 1–10 Year Municipal Bond Index, as well as the Lipper Intermediate Municipal Debt Funds Classification Average.

The Fund’s performance is shaped by its two portfolio components: intermediate duration municipal bonds and inflation-linked swaps. The swaps are designed to hedge the Fund against changes in realized inflation and changes in inflation expectations, which can influence municipal bond prices. For the reporting period, the Fund’s municipal bond portfolio substantially outperformed the benchmark, while its inflation-protection component was a meaningful detractor from relative performance.

In the municipal bond portfolio, duration (interest rate) positioning had the biggest positive impact on the Fund’s relative performance. During the reporting period, bonds with longer durations tended to outperform their counterparts with shorter durations. Accordingly, the combination of our underweight in the shortest-duration bonds and overweight in longer-dated bonds added significant value.

A lesser positive impact came from the Fund’s credit quality positioning. Investment grade bonds, lower rated securities generally fared better than those backed by higher credit quality issuers, as investors sought added yield in a still low interest rate environment. The Fund’s overweighting in bonds A and BBB rated, which occupy the two lowest credit tiers in the investment grade bond universe, added value, as did an underweighting in AAA rated bonds, the highest credit tier.

Sector positioning in the Fund was modestly negative during this reporting period, most notably an underweighting in the local general obligation (GO) bond category. In light of the sector’s relative outperformance, our more limited exposure to the group had a modestly negative impact on the Fund.

The Fund’s inflation-protection component was a significant negative during the reporting period, as our inflation-linked swaps detracted from relative performance. These securities accomplished their objective of hedging against fluctuations in inflation expectations and realized inflation. However, the value of the swaps fell as the market’s perceived likelihood of future inflation decreased during the reporting period.

Nuveen Intermediate Duration Municipal Bond Fund

During the six-month reporting period ended September 30, 2017, the Nuveen Intermediate Duration Municipal Bond Fund’s Class A shares at NAV outperformed the S&P Municipal Bond Intermediate Index and the Lipper Intermediate Municipal Debt Funds Classification Average.

The Fund’s credit quality positioning aided relative performance. During the reporting period, the market favored higher yielding securities, so the combination of our overweighting in lower quality investment grade securities (A and BBB rated bonds) and underweighting in the top credit quality tiers (AAA and AA rated bonds) was beneficial. We also benefited from favorable security selection in various sectors among A and BBB rated bonds, identifying credits with good fundamentals and more incremental yield than higher rated bonds were providing.

Yield curve positioning was another positive contributor to relative performance. The Fund was overweighted in 13-year and longer securities, which were among the best performers in the intermediate municipal bond universe. This positioning more than compensated for the Fund’s overweighting in bonds maturing in two years or less, which underperformed.

On an individual security basis, holdings in Chicago general obligation (GO) bonds, Illinois state-backed securities and bonds issued by the Chicago Board of Education significantly outperformed the broader municipal market. These securities rallied after the state resolved its budget impasse and restored funding to its cities and school districts.

Sector allocation modestly detracted from performance. The Fund’s overweighting in pre-refunded bonds hurt performance, as these high quality, shorter-term bonds drew less investor interest. An overweighting in the higher education sector proved disadvantageous as well, primarily due to our emphasis of high quality issuers such as Yale University, which tended not to fare as well given that the market environment generally favored lower quality bonds.

Similarly, larger-than-benchmark exposure to the lagging tobacco sector was modestly detrimental. Partially offsetting these disappointments, however, was the Fund’s overweighting in various outperforming sectors, including transportation, health care and industrial development revenue/pollution control revenue (IDR/PCR).

Nuveen Limited Term Municipal Bond Fund

For the six-month reporting period ended September 30, 2017, the Nuveen Limited Term Municipal Bond Fund’s Class A Shares at NAV outperformed the S&P Municipal Bond Short-Intermediate Index and the Lipper Short-Intermediate Municipal Debt Funds Classification Average.

Credit quality exposure boosted the Fund’s results in relative terms. Investors, searching for extra income, favored higher yielding securities in a continued environment of low interest rates. This meant that our overweightings in lower investment grade securities (rated A and BBB) and non-investment grade securities were beneficial. Likewise, our underweighting in the highest quality credit tiers (AAA and AA rated bonds) was helpful in light of these securities’ underperformance during the reporting period.

Favorable security selection across a variety of sectors, but particularly among A and BBB rated bonds also aided relative results. The Fund was rewarded for holding bonds that had attractive amounts of incremental yield compared to higher quality securities, as well as stable to improving fundamentals.

In addition, the Fund benefited from its holdings in certain below investment grade bonds, such as Illinois state-backed bonds, Chicago general obligation (GO) debt and Chicago Board of Education securities, all of which posted appreciable gains that far outpaced the index. These securities rallied strongly in the wake of the state enacting a budget and avoiding credit rating downgrades. We also saw good results with our IDR/PCR holdings in FirstEnergy Solutions, which rebounded somewhat from distressed levels.

Portfolio Managers’ Comments (continued)

 

Yield curve positioning was another factor behind the Fund’s outperformance of the index. Overweighting bonds with maturities of seven to twelve years was helpful, given that their yields were generally stable or declined slightly during the reporting period. The positive performance effects of owning these securities more than offset the negative performance impact of overweighting bonds due two years or less, which lagged as the Federal Reserve raised interest rates.

Sector positioning produced mixed results. The Fund’s underweighting in pre-refunded bonds added value, as these high quality, shorter-term bonds lagged the index. Larger-than-benchmark exposure to sectors consisting largely of lower investment grade securities, including those in the transportation, health care and industrial development revenue/pollution control revenue (IDR/PCR) categories, were helpful as well.

In contrast, the Fund’s overweighting in the underperforming higher education sector hurt somewhat, especially given our focus on high quality issuers such as Yale University and University of Chicago. Similarly, our overweighting in the lagging tobacco sector proved modestly detrimental for relative performance.

Nuveen Short Term Municipal Bond Fund

For the six-month reporting period ended September 30, 2017, the Nuveen Short-Term Municipal Bond Fund’s Class A Shares at NAV modestly underperformed the S&P Municipal Bond Short Index and the Lipper Short Municipal Debt Funds Classification Average.

During the reporting period, yields on securities from the longer end of the short-maturity universe (two to five years) were generally stable, while yields on the shortest-maturity bonds rose. This flattening of the short-term yield curve resulted in the outperformance of bonds beyond two years. Against this backdrop, with our larger-than-benchmark exposure to bonds four years and longer, the Fund’s yield curve positioning modestly contributed to relative performance. However, the Fund’s overweighting in very short-term securities (under six months, specifically) was a slight drag, as these bonds underperformed.

The Fund’s credit quality positioning worked to its advantage. Our larger-than-index exposure to A and BBB rated securities was beneficial, given these bonds’ outperformance as investors’ appetite for yield remained strong. At the same time, an underweighting in the highest credit quality segments (AA and AAA rated bonds) also helped, since they trailed lower quality securities.

From a sector selection standpoint, the Fund received a modest boost from its underweighting in pre-refunded securities, high quality bonds that underperformed the index due to their relatively lower yields.

What strategies were used to manage the Funds during the reporting period?

All of the Funds continued to employ the same fundamental investment strategies and tactics long relied upon by Nuveen Asset Management (NAM). Our municipal bond portfolios are managed with a value-oriented approach and close input from NAM’s research team. Below we highlight the specific factors influencing each Fund’s investment strategy, as well as how we managed each portfolio in light of recent market conditions.

Nuveen All-American Municipal Bond Fund

Throughout the reporting period, the Fund’s duration (interest rate sensitivity) remained longer than the benchmark, even as we gradually allowed it to drift downward by adding shorter-term securities. This gradual shift reflected our expectation that short-term interest rates would move modestly higher along with moderate and gradual interest rate hikes from the Federal Reserve, while longer-term rates could remain stable due to few inflation pressures. Thus, by moving the portfolio a bit shorter on the yield curve, we could take advantage of what we saw as better values among intermediate-dated securities, particularly those in the 15-year maturity range.

Similarly, relative to the benchmark, the Fund remained overweighted in bonds with more credit risk. As the reporting period progressed, however, and as lower rated bonds generally outperformed and experienced credit spread tightening, many of these securities appeared expensive. We began focusing new purchases toward higher quality securities, which, in many cases, offered comparable yields to those of lower quality bonds but with less credit risk.

 

  8      NUVEEN


We also continued to increase the Fund’s exposure to New York and California bonds. Due to high demand, securities from these two states tend to be comparatively liquid. As such, our purchases here improved the Fund’s flexibility and, in our opinion, made the portfolio somewhat more defensive in the event of a market sell off.

Bond sales were minimal during the reporting period, given our general preference for maintaining the Fund’s existing credit quality and sector positioning. Shareholder inflows, along with the proceeds of bond calls and maturities, provided our source of new assets to invest.

Nuveen Inflation Protected Municipal Bond Fund

With substantial shareholder inflows coming into the Fund, we were actively purchasing new bonds for the portfolio throughout the six-month reporting period. We generally liked the portfolio’s existing duration and credit quality stance, so, whenever we were adding new securities, we sought to keep this positioning to the extent possible.

Our new purchases, which took place in both the primary and secondary municipal bond markets, included a variety of dedicated-tax bonds. We also added a state appropriation bond, a water/sewer issue, and two health care credits, with a focus on intermediate and longer bonds.

These purchases, which were based on what was available at the time we had assets to invest, involved bonds with credit ratings ranging from high BBB to low AA and intermediate to longer-intermediate maturities. Selling activity was minimal during this reporting period and consisted of a single floating-rate bond issue.

The Fund’s exposure to inflation-linked swaps increased during the reporting period in proportion to the growth in the Fund’s net assets. These inflation-linked swaps continued to be classified as non-exchange-cleared derivatives, a beneficial situation for the Fund, given that it enables us to use the Fund’s municipal bond positions as collateral for the swaps, if necessary.

Nuveen Intermediate Duration Municipal Bond Fund

Throughout the reporting period, we kept the Fund’s basic sector, credit and yield curve positioning intact. However, the Fund’s duration (interest rate sensitivity) drifted downward to reach a more neutral stance relative to the index, based on our view that fewer attractive longer-term bond opportunities were available in the marketplace.

Credit spreads, the difference in yields between bonds with various credit ratings, continued to narrow during the reporting period. Lower quality bond yields continued to decline to the point where, in many cases, taking on additional credit risk seemed unwarranted, in our view. As a result, our purchases tended to skew more toward higher quality bonds. That said, we were comfortable maintaining the Fund’s existing overweightings in lower investment grade and below investment grade securities, given that they still offered healthy amounts of incremental yield relative to new opportunities in the marketplace, especially in light of their issuers’ generally stable to improving credit fundamentals.

In making purchases during the reporting period, we used the proceeds of new investment inflows, as well as bond calls and maturities, to make some swaps to help support the Fund’s dividend. Specifically, we sold some of our existing short-maturity, higher quality positions for bonds available in the marketplace that carried better yields but similar risk characteristics.

Nuveen Limited Term Municipal Bond Fund

Our purchasing activity during the reporting period reflected availability in the marketplace, rather than an intent to alter the Fund’s credit quality, sector or yield curve positioning.

We kept the Fund’s exposure to credit risk roughly stable throughout the six months, maintaining overweightings in lower investment grade and below investment grade securities due to their ability to provide the Fund with income. In light of these segments’ extended period of outperformance, however, we believed that there were fewer compelling new opportunities in this part of the marketplace. Accordingly, when adding new bonds to the Fund, we generally favored higher quality bonds, which increasingly carried yields similar to lower quality alternatives. Our purchases were spread across various sectors, including tax-supported, utilities

Portfolio Managers’ Comments (continued)

 

and transportation. We also swapped some existing holdings issued when bond yields were lower for newer higher yielding opportunities available in the marketplace, a strategy that helped boost the Fund’s income stream while maintaining a comparable level of risk.

Even as the portfolio’s yield curve exposure remained tilted toward longer-term securities within our investment universe, we were increasingly focused on adding shorter-term bonds, given the lack of new, attractive longer-maturity opportunities we were seeing in the marketplace. This resulted in the Fund’s duration falling slightly to a more neutral stance relative to the index.

Nuveen Short Term Municipal Bond Fund

We added names across the credit spectrum ranging from non-rated to AA rated bonds based on where we identified relative value and the potential for performance opportunity, although our purchases for the Fund during the reporting period had a bit more emphasis on the A and BBB ratings categories, which make up the lower investment grade investment universe.

We were particularly active among health care bonds, especially hospital and senior living issues, and we also purchased utility and transportation bonds. Notable additions included revenue bonds issued by New Jersey Motor Vehicle Surcharge, Clark County (Nevada) Airport, and Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority. In the health care sector, key additions were bonds issued by a California agency on behalf of Kaiser Permanente, a leading health care provider in the state. We also purchased several securities whose income is subject to the alternative minimum tax. We felt the incremental yield from these positions was attractive when viewed in the context of absolute and relative yield levels available elsewhere.

Our purchases were concentrated primarily in three- to five-year maturities. These securities carried incremental yield and we believed they offered the potential to benefit from further spread tightening and therefore, potentially outperform shorter-term securities over time. We maintained the Fund’s duration slightly long relative to the benchmark.

To fund our purchases, we often used the proceeds from bond maturities. We also traded some high quality, shorter-term securities with comparatively low yields for new investments offering higher prevailing yields with similar risk characteristics.

Note About Investment Valuations

The municipal securities held by the Funds are valued by the Funds’ pricing service using a range of market-based inputs and assumptions. A different municipal pricing service might incorporate different assumptions and inputs into its valuation methodology, potentially resulting in different values for the same securities. Thus, the current net asset value of a Fund’s shares might be impacted, higher or lower, if the Fund were to use a different pricing service, or if its pricing service were to materially change its valuation methodology. On October 4, 2016, the Fund’s then-current municipal bond pricing service was acquired by the parent company of another pricing service, and the combination of the valuation methodologies used by the two organizations took place on October 16, 2017, subsequent to the close of the reporting period of this report. The change of valuation methodologies due to that combination had little or no impact on the net asset value of each Fund’s shares.

Risk Considerations

Nuveen All-American Municipal Bond Fund

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, tax risk, political and economic 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. In addition, the Fund periodically engages in a moderate amount of portfolio leverage and in doing so, assumes a higher level of risk in pursuit of its objectives. Leverage involves the risk that the Fund could lose more than its original investment and also increases the Fund’s exposure to volatility, interest rate risk and credit risk.

Nuveen Inflation Protected Municipal Bond Fund

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, non-diversification risk, call risk, tax risk, political and economic risk, and income risk. 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 debt securities are subject to liquidity risk and heightened credit risk. The Fund’s use of derivative instruments may involve a small amount of cash investment relative to the total notional principal amount of the transaction, the magnitude of losses from derivatives may be greater than the amount originally invested. There can be no assurance that the Fund’s inflation hedging strategy will be successful or perform as expected.

Dividend Information

Each Fund seeks to pay regular monthly dividends out of its net investment income at a rate that reflects its past and projected net income performance. To permit each Fund to maintain a more stable monthly dividend, the Fund may pay dividends at a rate that may be more or less than the amount of net income actually earned by the Fund during the period. If a Fund has cumulatively earned more than it has paid in dividends, it will hold the excess in reserve as undistributed net investment income (UNII) as part of the Fund’s net asset value. Conversely, if a Fund has cumulatively paid in dividends more than it has earned, the excess will constitute a negative UNII that will likewise be reflected in the Fund’s net asset value. Each Fund will, over time, pay all its net investment income as dividends to shareholders.

As of September 30, 2017, all of the Funds had positive UNII balances, based upon our best estimate, for tax purposes and positive UNII balances for financial reporting purposes.

All monthly dividends paid by each Fund during the current reporting period were paid from net investment income. If a portion of the Fund’s monthly distributions was sourced from or comprised of elements other than net investment income, including capital gains and/or a return of capital, shareholders would have received a notice to that effect. For financial reporting purposes, the composition and per share amounts of each Fund’s dividends for the reporting period are presented in this report’s Statement of Changes in Net Assets and Financial Highlights, respectively. For income tax purposes, distribution information for each Fund as of its most recent tax year end is presented in Note 6 – Income Tax Information within the Notes to Financial Statements of this report.

Fund Performance, Expense Ratios

and Effective Leverage Ratios

 

The Fund Performance, Expense Ratios and Effective Leverage Ratios for each Fund are shown within this section of the report.

Returns quoted represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results. Investment returns and principal value will fluctuate so that when shares are redeemed, they may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance shown. Total returns for a period of less than one year are not annualized. Returns at net asset value (NAV) would be lower if the sales charge were included. Returns assume reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. For performance, current to the most recent month-end visit Nuveen.com or call (800) 257-8787.

Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. Income is generally exempt from regular federal income taxes. Some income may be subject to state and local income taxes and to the federal alternative minimum tax. Capital gains, if any, are subject to tax.

Returns may reflect fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements by the investment adviser during the periods presented. If any such waivers and/or reimbursements had not been in place, returns would have been reduced. See Notes to Financial Statements, Note 7—Management Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates for more information.

Returns reflect differences in sales charges and expenses, which are primarily differences in distribution and service fees, and assume reinvestment of dividends and capital gains.

Comparative index and Lipper return information is provided for Class A Shares at NAV only.

The expense ratios shown reflect total operating expenses (before fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, if any) as shown in the most recent prospectus. The expense ratios include management fees and other fees and expenses.

Leverage is created whenever a Fund has investment exposure (both reward and/or risk) equivalent to more than 100% of its investment capital. The effective leverage ratio shown for each Fund is the amount of investment exposure created either directly through borrowings or indirectly through inverse floaters, divided by the assets invested, including those assets that were purchased with the proceeds of the leverage, or referenced by the levered instrument. A Fund may from time to time borrow on a typically transient basis in connection with its day-to-day operations, primarily in connection with the need to pay cash out to redeeming shareholders or to settle portfolio trades. Such incidental borrowings, described generally in Notes to Financial Statements, Note 8—Borrowing Arrangements, are excluded from the calculation of a Fund’s effective leverage ratio.

Yields as of September 30, 2017

 

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

The SEC 30-Day Yield is a standardized measure of a fund’s yield that accounts for the future amortization of premiums or discounts of bonds held in the fund’s portfolio. The SEC 30-Day Yield is computed under an SEC standardized formula and is based on the maximum offer price per share. Subsidized yields reflect fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements from the investment adviser during the period. If any such waivers and/or reimbursements had not been in place, yields would have been reduced. Unsubsidized yields do not reflect waivers and/or reimbursements from the investment adviser during the period. Refer to the Notes to Financial Statements, Note 7 – Management Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates for further details on the investment adviser’s most recent agreement with the Fund to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses, where applicable. Dividend Yield may differ from the SEC 30-Day Yield because the fund may be paying out more or less than it is earning and it may not include the effect of amortization of bond premium.

The 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. If the comparison were instead to investments that generate qualified dividend income, which is taxable at a rate lower than an individual’s ordinary graduated tax rate, the fund’s Taxable-Equivalent Yield would be lower.

1 The SEC Yield for Class A shares quoted in the table reflects the maximum sales load. Investors paying a reduced load because of volume discounts, investors paying no load because they qualify for one of the several exclusions from the load, and existing shareholders who previously paid a load but would like to know the SEC Yield applicable to their shares on a going-forward basis, should understand that the SEC Yield effectively applicable to them would be higher than the figure quoted in the table.

 

2 The Taxable-Equivalent Yield is based on the Fund’s SEC 30-Day Yield on the indicated date and a federal income tax rate shown in the respective table above.

Holding

Summaries as of September 30, 2017

 

This data relates to the securities held in each Fund’s portfolio of investments as of the end of this reporting period. It should not be construed as a measure of performance for the Fund itself. Holdings are subject to change.

For financial reporting purposes, the ratings disclosed are the highest rating given by one of the following national rating agencies: Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or Fitch, Inc. This treatment of split-rated securities may differ from that used for other purposes, such as for Fund investment policies. 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 these national rating agencies.

Expense

Examples

 

As a shareholder of one or more of the Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including up-front and back-end sales charges (loads) or redemption fees, where applicable; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service (12b-1) fees, where applicable; and other Fund expenses. The Examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Examples below do not include the interest and related expenses from inverse floaters that are reflected in the financial statements later within this report, when applicable.

The Examples below are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held through the period ended September 30, 2017.

The beginning of the period is April 1, 2017.

The information under “Actual Performance,” together with the amount you invested, allows you to estimate actual expenses incurred over the reporting period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60) and multiply the result by the cost shown for your share class, in the row entitled “Expenses Incurred During Period” to estimate the expenses incurred on your account during this period.

The information under “Hypothetical Performance,” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each Fund’s actual expense 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 following tables are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the hypothetical information is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds or share classes. In addition, if these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

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

 

(2) 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.

 

(3) For financial reporting purposes, the ratings disclosed are the highest of Standard & Poor’s Group (“Standard & Poor’s”), Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) or Fitch, Inc. (“Fitch”) rating. This treatment of split-rated securities may differ from that used for other purposes, such as for Fund investment policies. 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.

 

(4) Backed by an escrow or trust containing sufficient U.S. Government or U.S. Government agency securities, which ensure the timely payment of principal and interest. Certain bonds backed by U.S. Government or agency securities are regarded as having an implied rating equal to the rating of such securities.

 

(5) Investment, or portion of investment, has been pledged to collateralize the net payment obligations for investments in inverse floating rate transactions.

 

(6) The coupon for this security increased 0.25% effective January 1, 2016 and increased an additional 0.25% effective May 11, 2016.

 

(7) Step-up coupon bond, a bond with a coupon that increases (“steps up”), usually at regular intervals, while the bond is outstanding. The rate shown is the coupon as of the end of the reporting period.

 

(8) As of, or subsequent to, the end of the reporting period, this security is non-income producing. Non-income producing, in the case of a fixed-income security, generally denotes that the issuer has (1) defaulted on the payment of principal or interest, (2) is under the protection of the Federal Bankruptcy Court or (3) the Fund’s Adviser has concluded that the issue is not likely to meet its future interest payment obligations and has ceased accruing additional income on the Fund’s records.

 

(9) On January 7, 2015, the Fund’s Adviser determined it was unlikely that this borrower would fulfill its entire obligation on this security, and therefore reduced the security’s interest rate of accrual from 7.125% to 5.700% and again on November 11, 2015, further reduced the security’s interest rate of accrual from 5.700% to 4.275%.

 

(10) On May 7, 2015, the Fund’s Adviser determined it was unlikely that this borrower would fulfill its entire obligation on this security, and therefore reduced the security’s interest rate of accrual from 5.250% to 2.100%.

 

(11) During January 2010, Las Vegas Monorail Company (“Las Vegas Monorail”) filed for federal bankruptcy protection. During March 2012, Las Vegas Monorail emerged from federal bankruptcy with the acceptance of a reorganization plan assigned by the Federal Bankruptcy Court. Under the reorganization plan, the Fund surrendered its Las Vegas Monorail Project Revenue Bonds, First Tier, Series 2000 and in turn received two senior interest corporate bonds: the first with an annual coupon rate of 5.500% maturing on July 15, 2019 and the second with an annual coupon rate of 3.000% (5.500% after December 31, 2015) maturing on July 15, 2055. The Fund was not accruing income for either senior interest corporate bond. On January 18, 2017, the Fund’s Adviser determined it was likely that this senior interest corporate bond would fulfill its obligation on the security maturing on July 15, 2019, and therefore began accruing income on the Fund’s records.

 

(12) Investment valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by, or at the discretion of, the Board. For fair value measurement disclosure purposes, investment classified as Level 3. See Notes to Financial Statements, Note 2 – Investment Valuation and Fair Value Measurements for more information.

 

(13) Investment has maturity of greater than one year, but has variable rate and/or demand features which qualify it as a short-term investment. The rate disclosed is that in effect at the end of the reporting period. This rate changes periodically based on market conditions or a specified market index.

 

ETM Escrowed to maturity.

 

IF Inverse floating rate security issued by a tender option bond (“TOB”) trust, the interest rate on which varies inversely with the Securities Industry Financial Markets Association (SIFMA) short-term rate, which resets weekly, or a similar short-term rate, and is reduced by the expenses related to the TOB trust.

 

UB Underlying bond of an inverse floating rate trust reflected as a financing transaction. See Notes to Financial Statements, Note 3 – Portfolio Securities and Investments in Derivatives, Inverse Floating Rate Securities for more information.

 

WI/DD Investment, or portion of investment, purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis.

 

144A Investment is exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. These investments may only be resold in transactions exempt from registration, which are normally those transactions with qualified institutional buyers.

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

 

(2) 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.

 

(3) For financial reporting purposes, the ratings disclosed are the highest of Standard & Poor’s Group (“Standard & Poor’s”), Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) or Fitch, Inc. (“Fitch”) rating. This treatment of split-rated securities may differ from that used for other purposes, such as for Fund investment policies. 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.

 

(4) Investment, or portion of investment, has been pledged to collateralize the net payment obligations for investments in derivatives.

 

(5) Backed by an escrow or trust containing sufficient U.S. Government or U.S. Government agency securities, which ensure the timely payment of principal and interest. Certain bonds backed by U.S. Government or agency securities are regarded as having an implied rating equal to the rating of such securities.

 

(6) Investment has maturity of greater than one year, but has variable rate and/or demand features which qualify it as a short-term investment. The rate disclosed is that in effect as of the end of the reporting period. This rate changes periodically based on market conditions or a specified market index.

 

(7) Other assets less liabilities includes the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of certain over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivatives as presented on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of OTC cleared and exchange-traded derivatives is recognized as part of the cash collateral at brokers and/or the receivable or payable for variation margin as presented on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, when applicable.

 

(8) Effective date represents the date on which both the Fund and counterparty commence interest payment accruals on each contract.

                                   $ 5,372,766,468  

 

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

 

(2) 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.

 

(3) For financial reporting purposes, the ratings disclosed are the highest of Standard & Poor’s Group (“Standard & Poor’s”), Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) or Fitch, Inc. (“Fitch”) rating. This treatment of split-rated securities may differ from that used for other purposes, such as for Fund investment policies. 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.

 

(4) Backed by an escrow or trust containing sufficient U.S. Government or U.S. Government agency securities, which ensure the timely payment of principal and interest. Certain bonds backed by U.S. Government or agency securities are regarded as having an implied rating equal to the rating of such securities.

 

(5) Investment, or portion of investment, has been pledged to collateralize the net payment obligations for investments in inverse floating rate transactions.

 

(6) The coupon for this security increased 0.25% effective January 1, 2016 and increased an additional 0.25% effective May 11, 2016.

 

(7) Step-up coupon bond, a bond with a coupon that increases (“steps up”), usually at regular intervals, while the bond is outstanding. The rate shown is the coupon as of the end of the reporting period.

 

(8) As of, or subsequent to, the end of the reporting period, this security is non-income producing. Non-income producing, in the case of a fixed-income security, generally denotes that the issuer has (1) defaulted on the payment of principal or interest, (2) is under the protection of the Federal Bankruptcy Court or (3) the Fund’s Adviser has concluded that the issue is not likely to meet its future interest payment obligations and has ceased accruing additional income on the Fund’s records.

 

(9) During January 2010, Las Vegas Monorail Company (“Las Vegas Monorail”) filed for federal bankruptcy protection. During March 2012, Las Vegas Monorail emerged from federal bankruptcy with the acceptance of a reorganization plan assigned by the Federal Bankruptcy Court. Under the reorganization plan, the Fund surrendered its Las Vegas Monorail Project Revenue Bonds, First Tier, Series 2000 and in turn received two senior interest corporate bonds: the first with an annual coupon rate of 5.500% maturing on July 15, 2019 and the second with an annual coupon rate of 3.000% (5.500% after December 31, 2015) maturing on July 15, 2055. The Fund was not accruing income for either senior interest corporate bond. On January 18, 2017, the Fund’s Adviser determined it was likely that this senior interest corporate bond would fulfill its obligation on the security maturing on July 15, 2019, and therefore began accruing income on the Fund’s records.

 

(10) Investment valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by, or at the discretion of, the Board. For fair value measurement disclosure purposes, investment classified as Level 3. See Notes to Financial Statements, Note 2 – Investment Valuation and Fair Value Measurements for more information.

 

(11) Investment has maturity of greater than one year, but has variable rate and/or demand features which qualify it as a short-term investment. The rate disclosed is that in effect at the end of the reporting period. This rate changes periodically based on market conditions or a specified market index.

 

(12) A copy of the most recent financial statements for these investment companies can be obtained directly from the Securities and Exchange Commission on its website at http://www.sec.gov.

 

(13) Variable rate security. The rate shown is the coupon as of the end of the reporting period.

 

ETM Escrowed to maturity.

 

IF Inverse floating rate security issued by a tender option bond (“TOB”) trust, the interest rate on which varies inversely with the Securities Industry Financial Markets Association (SIFMA) short-term rate, which resets weekly, or a similar short-term rate, and is reduced by the expenses related to the TOB trust.

 

LIBOR London Inter-Bank Offered Rate.

 

WI/DD Investment, or portion of investment, purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis.

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

 

(2) 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.

 

(3) For financial reporting purposes, the ratings disclosed are the highest of Standard & Poor’s Group (“Standard & Poor’s”), Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) or Fitch, Inc. (“Fitch”) rating. This treatment of split-rated securities may differ from that used for other purposes, such as for Fund investment policies. Ratings below BBB by Standard & Poor’s, Baa by Moody’s BBB by Fitch are considered to be below investment grade. Holdings designated N/R are not rated by any of these national rating agencies.

 

(4) Backed by an escrow or trust containing sufficient U.S. Government or U.S. Government agency securities, which ensure the timely payment of principal and interest. Certain bonds backed by U.S. Government or agency securities are regarded as having an implied rating equal to the rating of such securities.

 

(5) Step-up coupon bond, a bond with a coupon that increases (“steps up”), usually at regular intervals, while the bond is outstanding. The rate shown is the coupon as of the end of the reporting period.

 

(6) As of, or subsequent to, the end of the reporting period, this security is non-income producing. Non-income producing, in the case of a fixed-income security, generally denotes that the issuer has (1) defaulted on the payment of principal or interest, (2) is under the protection of the Federal Bankruptcy Court or (3) the Fund’s Adviser has concluded that the issue is not likely to meet its future interest payment obligations and has ceased accruing additional income on the Fund’s records.

 

(7) During January 2010, Las Vegas Monorail Company (“Las Vegas Monorail”) filed for federal bankruptcy protection. During March 2012, Las Vegas Monorail emerged from federal bankruptcy with the acceptance of a reorganization plan assigned by the Federal Bankruptcy Court. Under the reorganization plan, the Fund surrendered its Las Vegas Monorail Project Revenue Bonds, First Tier, Series 2000 and in turn received two senior interest corporate bonds: the first with an annual coupon rate of 5.500% maturing on July 15, 2019 and the second with an annual coupon rate of 3.000% (5.500% after December 31, 2015) maturing on July 15, 2055. The Fund was not accruing income for either senior interest corporate bond. On January 18, 2017, the Fund’s Adviser determined it was likely that this senior interest corporate bond would fulfill its obligation on the security maturing on July 15, 2019, and therefore began accruing income on the Fund’s records.

 

(8) Investment valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by, or at the discretion of, the Board. For fair value measurement disclosure purposes, investment classified as Level 3. See Notes to Financial Statements, Note 2 – Investment Valuation and Fair Value Measurements for more information.

 

(9) Investment has maturity of greater than one year, but has variable rate and/or demand features which qualify it as a short-term investment. The rate disclosed is that in effect at the end of the reporting period. This rate changes periodically based on market conditions or a specified market index.

 

(10) A copy of the most recent financial statements for these investment companies can be obtained directly from the Securities and Exchange Commission on its website at http://www.sec.gov.

 

(11) Variable rate security. The rate shown is the coupon as of the end of the reporting period.

 

(12) On July 1, 2017, the Fund’s Adviser determined it was unlikely that this borrower would fulfill its entire obligation on this security, and therefore reduced the security’s interest rate of accrual from 5.000% to 2.000%.

 

ETM Escrowed to maturity.

 

LIBOR London Inter-Bank Offered Rate.

 

WI/DD Investment, or portion of investment, purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis.

 

PIK Payment-in-kind (“PIK”) security. Depending on the terms of the security, income may be received in the form of cash, securities, or a combination of both. The PIK rate shown, where applicable, represents the annualized rate of the last PIK payment made by the issuer as of the end of the reporting period.

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

 

(2) 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.

 

(3) For financial reporting purposes, the ratings disclosed are the highest of Standard & Poor’s Group (“Standard & Poor’s”), Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) or Fitch, Inc. (“Fitch”) rating. This treatment of split-rated securities may differ from that used for other purposes, such as for Fund investment policies. 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.

 

(4) Backed by an escrow or trust containing sufficient U.S. Government or U.S. Government agency securities, which ensure the timely payment of principal and interest. Certain bonds backed by U.S. Government or agency securities are regarded as having an implied rating equal to the rating of such securities.

 

(5) Investment has maturity of greater than one year, but has variable rate and/or demand features which qualify it as a short-term investment. The rate disclosed is that in effect as of the end of the reporting period. This rate changes periodically based on market conditions or a specified market index.

 

(6) A copy of the most recent financial statements for these investment companies can be obtained directly from the Securities and Exchange Commission on its website at http://www.sec.gov.

 

(7) Variable rate security. The rate shown is the coupon as of the end of the reporting period.

(a) Per share Net Investment Income (Loss) is calculated using the average daily shares method.  
(b) Total return is the combination of changes in NAV without any sales charge, reinvested dividend income at NAV and reinvested capital gains distributions at NAV, if any. Total returns are not annualized.  
(c) After fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement from the Adviser, where applicable. During the fiscal years ended April 30, 2014 through April 30, 2016, the Adviser agreed to waive 0.25% of the 12b-1 distribution and/or service fees for Class C Shares through August 31, 2015. After August 31, 2015, the Adviser is no longer waiving fees or reimbursing expenses for Class C Shares.  
(d) The expense ratios reflect, among other things, the interest expense deemed to have been paid by the Fund on the floating rate certificates issued by the special purpose trusts for the self-deposited inverse floaters held by the Fund, where applicable, as described in Note 3 – Portfolio Securities and Investments in Derivatives, Inverse Floating Rate Securities.  
(e) Portfolio Turnover Rate is calculated based on the lesser of long-term purchases or sales (as disclosed in Note 5 – Investment Transactions) divided by the average long-term market value during the period.  
(f) For the period February 10, 2014 (commencement of operations) through April 30, 2014.  
(g) Formerly Class C Shares and renamed to Class C2 Shares on February 10, 2014.  
(h) For the eleven months ended March 31, 2017.  
(i) For the six months ended September 30, 2017.  
* Annualized.

1. General Information and Significant Accounting Policies

General Information

Trust and Fund Information

Nuveen Municipal Trust and Nuveen Investment Funds, Inc. (each a “Trust” and collectively, the “Trusts”), are open-end management investment companies registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Nuveen Municipal Trust is comprised of Nuveen All-American Municipal Bond Fund (“All-American”), Nuveen Inflation Protected Municipal Bond Fund (“Inflation Protected”), Nuveen Intermediate Duration Municipal Bond Fund (“Intermediate Duration”) and Nuveen Limited Term Municipal Bond Fund (“Limited Term”), among others, and Nuveen Investment Funds, Inc. is comprised of Nuveen Short Term Municipal Bond Fund (“Short Term”), among others, (each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”), as diversified funds. Nuveen Municipal Trust was organized as a Massachusetts business trust on July 1, 1996. Nuveen Investment Funds, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Maryland on August 20, 1987. The Funds, with the exception of Inflation Protected, were each organized as a series of predecessor trusts or corporations prior to that date.

The end of the reporting period for the Funds is September 30, 2017, and the period covered by these Notes to Financial Statements is the six months ended September 30, 2017 (the “current fiscal period”).

Investment Adviser

The Funds’ investment adviser is Nuveen Fund Advisors, LLC (the “Adviser”), a subsidiary of Nuveen, LLC (“Nuveen”). Nuveen is the investment management arm of Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America (TIAA). The Adviser has overall responsibility for management of the Funds, oversees the management of the Funds’ portfolios, manages the Funds’ business affairs and provides certain clerical, bookkeeping and other administrative services, and, if necessary, asset allocation decisions. The Adviser has entered into sub-advisory agreements with Nuveen Asset Management, LLC (the “Sub-Adviser”), a subsidiary of the Adviser, under which the Sub-Adviser manages the investment portfolios of the Funds.

Investment Objectives

All-American’s, Intermediate Duration’s and Limited Term’s investment objective is to provide as high a level of current interest income exempt from regular federal income taxes as is consistent with preservation of capital. Inflation Protected’s investment objective is to provide after-tax total return, protected from inflation, through a combination of federally tax-exempt income and inflation-linked investments. Short Term’s investment objective is to provide current income that is exempt from federal income tax to the extent consistent with preservation of capital.

The Funds’ most recent prospectus provides further descriptions of each Fund’s investment objective, principal investment strategies, and principal risks.

Significant Accounting Policies

Each Fund is an investment company and follows accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 946 “Financial Services – Investment Companies.” The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

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 Funds have earmarked securities in their portfolios with a current value at least equal to the amount of the when-issued/delayed delivery purchase commitments.

As of the end of the reporting period, the Funds’ outstanding when-issued/delayed delivery purchase commitments were as follows:

 

     All-American     

Intermediate

Duration

     Limited
Term
     Short
Term
 
Outstanding when-issued/delayed delivery purchase commitments   $ 26,035,072      $ 8,995,000      $ 51,358,843      $ 499,535  

Investment Income

Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends received in the form of stock, if any, are recognized on the ex-dividend date and recorded at fair value. Investment Income, is comprised of interest income, which reflects the amortization of premiums and includes accretion of

 

  224      NUVEEN


discounts for financial reporting purposes, and is recorded on an accrual basis. Investment Income also reflects payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest and paydown gains and losses, if any. PIK interest represents income received in the form of securities in lieu of cash.

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. If a refund is received for workout expenditures paid in a prior reporting period, such amounts will be recognized as “Legal fee refund” on the Statement of Operations.

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders

Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and distributed to 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 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.

Share Classes and Sales Charges

Class A Shares are generally sold with an up-front sales charge and incur a 0.20% annual 12b-1 service fee. Class A Share purchases of $250,000 or more are sold at net asset value (“NAV”) without an up-front sales charge but may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) of 1% (0.70% for Limited Term and Short Term) if redeemed within eighteen months of purchase. Class C Shares are sold without an up-front sales charge but incur a 0.75% annual 12b-1 distribution fee and a 0.25% annual 12b-1 service fee. The Funds will issue Class C2 Shares upon the exchange of Class C2 Shares from another Nuveen mutual fund or for the purposes of dividend reinvestment, but Class C2 Shares are not available for new accounts or for additional investment into existing accounts. Class C2 Shares incur a 0.55% (0.35% for Limited Term and Short Term) annual 12b-1 distribution fee and a 0.20% annual 12b-1 service fee. Class C and C2 Shares are subject to a CDSC of 1% if redeemed within twelve months of purchase. Class R6 Shares and Class I Shares are not subject to any sales charge or 12b-1 distribution or service fees.

Multiclass Operations and Allocations

Income and expenses of the Funds that are not directly attributable to a specific class of shares are prorated among the classes based on the relative settled shares of each class. Expenses directly attributable to a class of shares are recorded to the specific class. Currently, the only expenses that are allocated on a class-specific basis are 12b-1 distribution and service fees.

Sub-transfer agent fees, which are recognized as a component of “Shareholder servicing agent fees” on the Statement of Operations, are not charged to Class R6 Shares and are prorated among the other classes based on their relative settled shares.

Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Funds are prorated among the classes based on the relative net assets of each class.

Compensation

Neither Trust pays compensation directly to those of its directors/trustees who are affiliated with the Adviser or to its officers, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to each Trust from the Adviser or its affiliates. The Funds’ Board of Directors/Trustees (the “Board”) has adopted a deferred compensation plan for independent directors/trustees that enables directors/trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from certain Nuveen-advised funds. Under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of select Nuveen-advised funds.

Indemnifications

Under each Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and directors/trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to each Trust. In addition, in the normal course of business, each Trust enters into contracts that provide general indemnifications to other parties. Each Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against each Trust that have not yet occurred. However, each Trust has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.

Netting Arrangements

In the ordinary course of business, the Funds may enter into transactions subject to enforceable International Swaps and Derivative Association, Inc. (“ISDA”) master agreements or other similar arrangements (“netting agreements”). Generally, the right to offset in netting agreements allows each Fund to offset certain securities and derivatives with a specific counterparty, when applicable, as well as any collateral received or delivered to that counterparty based on the terms of the agreements. Generally, each Fund manages its cash collateral and securities collateral on a counterparty basis.

The Funds’ investments subject to netting agreements as of the end of the reporting period, if any, are further described in Note 3 – Portfolio Securities and Investments in Derivatives.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (continued)

 

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 current fiscal period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

2. Investment Valuation and Fair Value Measurements

The fair valuation input levels as described below are for fair value measurement purposes.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon selling an investment or transferring a liability in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment. 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 following is a summary of the three-tiered hierarchy of valuation input levels.

 

Level 1 –   Inputs are unadjusted and prices are determined using quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2 –   Prices are determined using other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3 –   Prices are determined using significant unobservable inputs (including management’s assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

Prices of fixed-income securities are provided by an independent pricing service (“pricing service”) approved by the Board. 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. These securities are generally classified as Level 2. 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 observability of the significant inputs.

Prices of swap contracts are also provided by a pricing service approved by the Board using the same methods as described above, and are generally classified as Level 2.

Investments in investment companies are valued at their respective NAVs on valuation date and are generally classified as Level 1.

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 Board and/or its appointee 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 NAV (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 observability of the significant inputs. Regardless of the method employed to value a particular security, all valuations are subject to review by the Board and/or its appointee.

The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. The following is a summary of each Fund’s fair value measurements as of the end of the reporting period:

The Board is responsible for the valuation process and has appointed the oversight of the daily valuation process to the Adviser’s Valuation Committee. The Valuation Committee, pursuant to the valuation policies and procedures adopted by the Board, is responsible for making fair value determinations, evaluating the effectiveness of the Funds’ pricing policies and reporting to the Board. The Valuation Committee is aided in its efforts by the Adviser’s dedicated Securities Valuation Team, which is responsible for administering the daily valuation process and applying fair value methodologies as approved by the Valuation Committee. When determining the reliability of independent pricing services for investments owned by the Funds, the Valuation Committee, among other things, conducts due diligence reviews of the pricing services and monitors the quality of security prices received through various testing reports conducted by the Securities Valuation Team.

The Valuation Committee will consider pricing methodologies it deems relevant and appropriate when making a fair value determination, based on the facts and circumstances specific to the portfolio instrument. Fair value determinations generally will be derived as follows, using public or private market information:

 

  (i) If available, fair value determinations shall be derived by extrapolating from recent transactions or quoted prices for identical or comparable securities.

 

  (ii) If such information is not available, an analytical valuation methodology may be used based on other available information including, but not limited to: analyst appraisals, research reports, corporate action information, issuer financial statements and shelf registration statements. Such analytical valuation methodologies may include, but are not limited to: multiple of earnings, discount from market value of a similar freely-traded security, discounted cash flow analysis, book value or a multiple thereof, risk premium/yield analysis, yield to maturity and/or fundamental investment analysis.

The purchase price of a portfolio instrument will be used to fair value the instrument only if no other valuation methodology is available or deemed appropriate, and it is determined that the purchase price fairly reflects the instrument’s current value.

 

NUVEEN     227  


Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (continued)

 

For each portfolio security that has been fair valued pursuant to the policies adopted by the Board, the fair value price is compared against the last available and next available market quotations. The Valuation Committee reviews the results of such testing and fair valuation occurrences are reported to the Board.

3. Portfolio Securities and Investments in Derivatives

Portfolio Securities

Inverse Floating Rate Securities

Each Fund, other than Inflation Protected, is authorized to invest in inverse floating rate securities. An inverse floating rate security is created by depositing a municipal bond (referred to as an “Underlying Bond”), typically with a fixed interest rate, into a special purpose tender option bond (“TOB”) trust (referred to as the “TOB Trust”) created by or at the direction of one or more Funds. In turn, the TOB Trust issues (a) floating rate certificates (referred to as “Floaters”), in face amounts equal to some fraction of the Underlying Bond’s par amount or market value, and (b) an inverse floating rate certificate (referred to as an “Inverse Floater”) that represents all remaining or residual interest in the TOB Trust. Floaters typically pay short-term tax-exempt interest rates to third parties who are also provided a right to tender their certificate and receive its par value, which may be paid from the proceeds of a remarketing of the Floaters, by a loan to the TOB Trust from a third party liquidity provider (“Liquidity Provider”), or by the sale of assets from the TOB Trust. The Inverse Floater is issued to a long term investor, such as one or more of the Funds. The income received by the Inverse Floater holder varies inversely with the short-term rate paid to holders of the Floaters, 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 value of an Inverse Floater 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 Floaters, and because the Inverse Floater essentially bears the risk of loss (and possible gain) of the greater face value of the Underlying Bond.

The Inverse Floater held by a Fund gives the Fund the right to (a) cause the holders of the Floaters to tender their certificates at par (or slightly more than par in certain circumstances), and (b) have the trustee of the TOB Trust (the “Trustee”) transfer the Underlying Bond held by the TOB Trust to the Fund, thereby collapsing the TOB Trust.

The Fund may acquire an Inverse Floater in a transaction where it (a) transfers an Underlying Bond that it owns to a TOB Trust created by a third party or (b) transfers an Underlying Bond that it owns, or that it has purchased in a secondary market transaction for the purpose of creating an Inverse Floater, to a TOB Trust created at its direction, and in return receives the Inverse Floater of the TOB Trust (referred to as a “self-deposited Inverse Floater”). A Fund may also purchase an Inverse Floater in a secondary market transaction from a third party creator of the TOB Trust without first owning the Underlying Bond (referred to as an “externally-deposited Inverse Floater”).

An investment in a self-deposited Inverse Floater is accounted for as a “financing” transaction (i.e., a secured borrowing). For a self-deposited Inverse Floater, the Underlying Bond deposited into the TOB Trust is identified in the Fund’s Portfolio of Investments as “(UB) – Underlying bond of an inverse floating rate trust reflected as a financing transaction,” with the Fund recognizing as liabilities, labeled “Floating rate obligations” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, (a) the liquidation value of Floaters issued by the TOB Trust, and (b) the amount of any borrowings by the TOB Trust from a Liquidity Provider to enable the TOB Trust to purchase outstanding Floaters in lieu of a remarketing. In addition, the Fund recognizes in “Investment Income” the entire earnings of the Underlying Bond, and recognizes (a) the interest paid to the holders of the Floaters or on the TOB Trust’s borrowings, and (b) other expenses related to remarketing, administration, trustee, liquidity and other services to a TOB Trust, as a component of “Interest expense” on the Statement of Operations.

In contrast, an investment in an externally-deposited Inverse Floater is accounted for as a purchase of the Inverse Floater and is identified in the Fund’s Portfolio of Investments as “(IF) – Inverse floating rate investment.” For an externally-deposited Inverse Floater, a Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities recognizes the Inverse Floater and not the Underlying Bond as an asset, and the Fund does not recognize the Floaters, or any related borrowings from a Liquidity Provider, as a liability. Additionally, the Fund reflects in “Investment Income” only the net amount of earnings on the Inverse Floater (net of the interest paid to the holders of the Floaters or the Liquidity Provider as lender, and the expenses of the Trust), and does not show the amount of that interest paid or the expenses of the TOB Trust as described above as interest expense on the Statement of Operations.

Fees paid upon the creation of a TOB Trust for self-deposited Inverse Floaters and externally-deposited Inverse Floaters are recognized as part of the cost basis of the Inverse Floater and are capitalized over the term of the TOB Trust.

As of the end of the reporting period, the aggregate value of Floaters issued by each Fund’s TOB Trust for self-deposited Inverse Floaters and externally-deposited Inverse Floaters was as follows:

 

Floating Rate Obligations Outstanding   All-American      Intermediate
Duration
     Limited
Term
     Short
Term
 
Floating rate obligations: self-deposited Inverse Floaters   $ 67,370,000    $   —      $   —      $   —  
Floating rate obligations: externally-deposited Inverse Floaters     73,407,500        12,490,000                
Total   $ 140,777,500      $ 12,490,000      $      $  

 

  228      NUVEEN


During the current fiscal period, the average amount of Floaters (including any borrowings from a Liquidity Provider) outstanding, and the average annual interest rate and fees related to self-deposited Inverse Floaters, were as follows:

 

Self-Deposited Inverse Floaters   All-American      Intermediate
Duration
     Limited
Term
     Short
Term
 
Average floating rate obligations outstanding   $ 67,370,000      $   —      $   —      $   —  
Average annual interest rate and fees     1.40               

TOB Trusts are supported by a liquidity facility provided by a Liquidity Provider pursuant to which the Liquidity Provider agrees, in the event that Floaters are (a) tendered to the Trustee for remarketing and the remarketing does not occur, or (b) subject to mandatory tender pursuant to the terms of the TOB Trust agreement, to either purchase Floaters or to provide the Trustee with an advance from a loan facility to fund the purchase of Floaters by the TOB Trust. In certain circumstances, the Liquidity Provider may otherwise elect to have the Trustee sell the Underlying Bond to retire the Floaters that were tendered and not remarketed prior to providing such a loan. In these circumstances, the Liquidity Provider remains obligated to provide a loan to the extent that the proceeds of the sale of the Underlying Bond are not sufficient to pay the purchase price of the Floaters.

The size of the commitment under the loan facility for a given TOB Trust is at least equal to the balance of that TOB Trust’s outstanding Floaters plus any accrued interest. In consideration of the loan facility, fee schedules are in place and are charged by the Liquidity Provider(s). Any loans made by the Liquidity Provider will be secured by the purchased Floaters held by the TOB Trust. Interest paid on any outstanding loan balances will be effectively borne by the Fund that owns the Inverse Floaters of the TOB Trust that has incurred the borrowing and may be at a rate that is greater than the rate that would have been paid had the Floaters been successfully remarketed.

As described above, any amounts outstanding under a liquidity facility are recognized as a component of “Floating rate obligations” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities by the Fund holding the corresponding Inverse Floaters issued by the borrowing TOB Trust. As of the end of the reporting period, All-American had outstanding borrowings under such liquidity facilities in the amount of $10,375,433, which is recognized as a component of “Floating rate obligations” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. There were no loans outstanding under such facilities for Intermediate Duration, Limited Term and Short Term as of the end of the reporting period.

Each Fund may also enter into shortfall and forbearance agreements (sometimes referred to as a “recourse arrangement”) (TOB Trusts involving such agreements are referred to herein as “Recourse Trusts”), under which a Fund agrees to reimburse the Liquidity Provider for the Trust’s Floaters, in certain circumstances, for the amount (if any) by which the liquidation value of the Underlying Bond held by the TOB Trust may fall short of the sum of the liquidation value of the Floaters issued by the TOB Trust plus any amounts borrowed by the TOB Trust from the Liquidity Provider, plus any shortfalls in interest cash flows. Under these agreements, a Fund’s potential exposure to losses related to or on an Inverse Floater may increase beyond the value of the Inverse Floater as a Fund may potentially be liable to fulfill all amounts owed to holders of the Floaters or the Liquidity Provider. Any such shortfall amount in the aggregate is recognized as “Unrealized depreciation on Recourse Trusts” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

As of the end of the reporting period, each Fund’s maximum exposure to the Floaters issued by Recourse Trusts for self-deposited Inverse Floaters and externally-deposited Inverse Floaters was as follows:

 

Floating Rate Obligations-Recourse Trusts   All-American      Intermediate
Duration

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.

Investments in Derivatives

In addition to the inverse floating rate securities in which certain Funds may invest, which are considered portfolio securities for financial reporting purposes, each Fund is authorized to invest in certain derivative instruments. The Funds record derivative instruments at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized on the Statement of Operations, when applicable. Even though the Funds’ investments in derivatives may represent economic hedges, they are not considered to be hedge transactions for financial reporting purposes.

Consumer Price Index Swaps

Inflation Protected seeks to hedge inflation risk by investing in inflation-linked instruments, such as Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) swaps, in amounts sufficient to approximate the duration characteristics of the Fund’s underlying municipal bond portfolio. A CPI swap is a fixed maturity, over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivative in which the Fund pays to the counterparty a predetermined fixed annualized rate over the life of the CPI swap and receives in return the “realized” rate of inflation as measured by the CPI for All Urban Consumers Non-Seasonally Adjusted over the life of the swap. The Fund will benefit from a CPI swap if actual inflation during the swap’s period is greater than the level of inflation expected for that period at the time the swap was entered into, and conversely the Fund will lose money on a CPI swap if actual inflation turns out to be less than expected.

The amount of the payment obligation is based on the notional amount of the CPI swap contract and the termination date of the swap (which is akin to a bond’s maturity). CPI swap contracts are valued daily. The amount recorded on these transactions, is recognized on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a component of “Unrealized appreciation or depreciation on consumer price index swaps” with the change during the fiscal period recognized on the Statement of Operations as a component of “Change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of swaps.”

Upon the termination of a swap contract, a realized gain or loss is recognized. When a CPI swap is terminated, it ordinarily does not involve the delivery of securities or other underlying assets or principal, but rather is settled in cash on a net basis. Net realized gains and losses during the fiscal period are recognized on the Statement of Operations as a component of “Net realized gain (loss) from swaps.” Accordingly, the risk of loss with respect to the swap counterparty on such transactions is limited to the credit risk associated with a counterparty failing to honor its commitment to pay any realized gain to the Fund upon termination.

During the current fiscal period, Inflation Protected continued to invest in CPI swap contracts to hedge against fluctuations in inflation expectations, which can influence bond prices, and realized inflation.

The average notional amount of CPI swap contracts outstanding during the current fiscal period, was as follows:

 

     Inflation
Protected
 
Average notional amount of CPI swap contracts outstanding*   $ 100,883,333  
* The average notional amount is calculated based on the outstanding notional at the beginning of the fiscal period and at the end of each fiscal quarter within the current fiscal period.

The following table presents the fair value of all swap contracts held by the Funds as of the end of the reporting period, the location of these instruments on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and the primary underlying risk exposure.

Market and Counterparty Credit Risk

In the normal course of business each Fund may invest in financial instruments and enter into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists due to changes in the market (market risk) or failure of the other party to the transaction to perform (counterparty credit risk). The potential loss could exceed the value of the financial assets recorded on the financial statements. Financial assets, which potentially expose each Fund to counterparty credit risk, consist principally of cash due from counterparties on forward, option and swap transactions, when applicable. The extent of each Fund’s exposure to counterparty credit risk in respect to these financial assets approximates their carrying value as recorded on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

Each Fund helps manage counterparty credit risk by entering into agreements only with counterparties the Adviser believes have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by having the Adviser monitor the financial stability of the counterparties. Additionally, counterparties may be required to pledge collateral daily (based on the daily valuation of the financial asset) on behalf of each Fund with a value approximately equal to the amount of any unrealized gain above a pre-determined threshold. Reciprocally, when each Fund has an unrealized loss, the Funds have instructed the custodian to pledge assets of the Funds as collateral with a value approximately equal to the amount of the unrealized loss above a pre-determined threshold. Collateral pledges are monitored and subsequently adjusted if and when the valuations fluctuate, either up or down, by at least the pre-determined threshold amount.

6. Income Tax Information

Each Fund is a separate taxpayer for federal income tax purposes. Each Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and net capital gains to shareholders and 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, each Fund intends to satisfy conditions that 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 Funds. Net realized capital gains and ordinary income distributions paid by the Funds are subject to federal taxation.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (continued)

 

For all open tax years and all major taxing jurisdictions, management of the Funds 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 Funds 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.

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 NAVs of the Funds.

The tables below present the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of each Fund’s investment portfolio, as determined on a federal income tax basis, as of September 30, 2017.

For purposes of this disclosure, derivative tax cost is generally the sum of any upfront fees or premiums exchanged and any amounts unrealized for income statement reporting but realized in income and/or capital gains for tax reporting. If a particular derivative category does not disclose any tax unrealized appreciation or depreciation, the change in value of those derivatives have generally been fully realized for tax purposes.

7. Management Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates

Management Fees

Each Fund’s management fee compensates the Adviser for overall investment advisory and administrative services and general office facilities. The Sub-Adviser is compensated for its services to the Funds from the management fees paid to the Adviser.

Each Fund’s management fee consists of two components – a fund-level fee, based only on the amount of assets within each individual Fund, and a complex-level fee, based on the aggregate amount of all eligible fund assets managed by the Adviser. This pricing structure enables each Fund’s shareholders to benefit from growth in the assets within their respective Fund as well as from growth in the amount of complex-wide assets managed by the Adviser.

For the period April 1, 2017 through July 31, 2017, the annual Fund-level fee, payable monthly, for each Fund was calculated according to the following schedule:

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (continued)

 

The annual complex-level fee, payable monthly, for each Fund is determined by taking the complex-level fee rate, which is based on the aggregate amount of “eligible assets” of all Nuveen funds as set forth in the schedule below, and for All-American, Intermediate Duration and Short Term, making, as appropriate, an upward adjustment to that rate based upon the percentage of the fund’s assets that are not “eligible assets.” The complex level fee schedule for each Fund is as follows:

 

Complex-Level Asset Breakpoint Level*      Effective Rate at Breakpoint Level  
$55 billion        0.2000

$200 billion        0.1505  
$250 billion        0.1469  
$300 billion        0.1445  
* The complex-level fee is calculated based upon the aggregate daily “eligible assets” of all Nuveen funds. Eligible assets do not include assets attributable to investments in other Nuveen funds or assets in excess of a determined amount (originally $2 billion) added to the Nuveen fund complex in connection with the Adviser’s assumption of the management of the former First American Funds effective January 1, 2011. Eligible assets include closed-end fund assets managed by the Adviser that are attributable to certain types of leverage. For these purposes, leverage includes the closed-end funds’ use of preferred stock and borrowings and certain investments in the residual interest certificates (also called inverse floating rate securities) in tender option bond (TOB) trusts, including the portion of assets held by the TOB trust that has been effectively financed by the trust’s issuance of floating rate securities, subject to an agreement by the Adviser as to certain funds to limit the amount of such assets for determining eligible assets in certain circumstances. As of September 30, 2017, the complex-level fee for each Fund was as follows:

The expense limitation expiring July 31, 2019, may be terminated or modified prior to that date only with the approval of the Board.

Other Transactions with Affiliates

Each Fund is permitted to purchase or sell securities from or to certain other funds managed by the Adviser (“inter-fund trade”) under specified conditions outlined in procedures adopted by the Board. These procedures have been designed to ensure that any inter-fund trade of securities by the Fund from or to another fund that is, or could be, considered an affiliate of the Fund under certain limited circumstances by virtue of having a common investment adviser (or affiliated investment adviser), common officer and/or common trustee complies with Rule 17a-7 of the 1940 Act. Further, as defined under these procedures, each inter-fund trade is effected at the current market price as provided by an independent pricing service. Unsettled inter-fund trades as of the end of the reporting period are recognized as a component of “Receivable for investments sold” and/or “Payable for investments purchased” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, when applicable.

During the current fiscal period, the following Fund engaged in inter-fund trades pursuant to these procedures as follows:

8. Borrowing Arrangements

Uncommitted Line of Credit

During the current fiscal period, the Funds participated in an unsecured bank line of credit (“Unsecured Credit Line”) under which outstanding balances would bear interest at a variable rate. Although the Funds participated in the Unsecured Credit Line, they did not have any outstanding balances during the current fiscal period.

The Unsecured Credit Line was not renewed after its scheduled termination date on July 27, 2017.

Committed Line of Credit

The Funds, along with certain other funds managed by the Adviser (“Participating Funds”), have established a 364-day, approximately $3 billion standby credit facility with a group of lenders, under which the Participating Funds may borrow for various purposes other than leveraging for investment purposes. A large portion of this facility’s capacity (and its associated costs as described below) is currently dedicated for use by a small number of Participating Funds, which does not include any of the Funds covered by this shareholder report. The remaining capacity under the facility (and the corresponding portion of the facility’s annual costs) is separately dedicated to most of the other open-end funds in the Nuveen fund family, including all of the Funds covered by this shareholder report, along with a number of Nuveen closed-end funds. The credit facility expires in July 2018 unless extended or renewed.

The credit facility has the following terms: a fee of 0.15% per annum on unused commitment amounts, and interest at a rate equal to the higher of (a) one-month LIBOR (London Inter-Bank Offered Rate) plus 1.25% per annum or (b) the Fed Funds rate plus 1.25% per annum on amounts borrowed. Participating Funds paid administration, legal and arrangement fees, which are recognized as a component of “Other expenses” on the Statement of Operations, and along with commitment fees, have been allocated among such Participating Funds based upon the relative proportions of the facility’s aggregate capacity reserved for them and other factors deemed relevant by the Adviser and the Board of each Participating Fund.

During the current fiscal period, the following Fund utilized this facility. The Fund’s maximum oustanding balance during the utilization period was as follows:

9. New Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-08 (“ASU 2017-08”) Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities

During March 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2017-08, which shortens the premium amortization period for purchased non-contingently callable debt securities. ASU 2017-08 specifies that the premium amortization period ends at the earliest call date, for purchased non-contingently callable debt securities. ASU 2017-08 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Management is currently evaluating the implications of ASU 2017-08, if any.

Glossary of Terms

Used in this Report

 

Average Annual Total Return: This is a commonly used method to express an investment’s performance over a particular, usually multi-year time period. It expresses the return that would have been necessary each year to equal the investment’s actual cumulative performance (including change in NAV or offer price and reinvested dividends and capital gains distributions, if any) over the time period being considered.

Bloomberg Barclays 1-10 Year Municipal Bond Index: An unmanaged index comprised of investment-grade municipal bonds with maturity dates of more than 1 year and less than 10 years. Index returns assume reinvestment of distributions, but do not reflect any applicable sales charges or management fees.

Duration: Duration is a measure of the expected period over which a bond’s principal and interest will be paid, and consequently is a measure of the sensitivity of a bond’s (or bond fund’s) value to changes when market interest rates change. Generally, the longer a bond or fund’s duration, the more the price of the bond or fund will change as interest rates change.

Effective Leverage (Effective Leverage Ratio): Effective leverage is investment exposure created either directly through certain borrowings or indirectly through inverse floaters, divided by the assets invested, including those assets that were purchased with the proceeds of the leverage, or referenced by the levered instrument. The calculation of the Effective Leverage Ratio reflects borrowings effected on a long-term basis for investment purposes, but excludes borrowings that may occur, on a transient basis, in connection with a Fund’s day-to-day operations primarily in connection with the need to pay cash out to redeeming shareholders or to settle portfolio trades.

Industrial Development Revenue Bond (IDR) – A unique type of revenue bond issued by a state or local government agency on behalf of a private sector company and intended to build or acquire factories or other heavy equipment and tools.

Inflation Linked Swap: A contractual agreement between two counterparties under which one party agrees to make periodic interest payments to the other for an agreed period of time based on a fixed rate (alternatively, a floating rate based on an interest rate index), while the other party agrees to make periodic payments based on a floating rate of interest based on the Consumer Price Index.

Inverse Floating Rate Securities: Inverse floating rate securities, also known as inverse floaters or tender option bonds (TOBs), are created by depositing a municipal bond, typically with a fixed interest rate, into a special purpose trust. This trust, in turn, (a) issues floating rate certificates typically paying short-term tax-exempt interest rates to third parties in amounts equal to some fraction of the deposited bond’s par amount or market value, and (b) issues an inverse floating rate certificate (sometimes referred to as an “inverse floater”) to an investor (such as a fund) interested in gaining investment exposure to a long-term municipal bond. The income received by the holder of the inverse floater varies inversely with the short-term rate paid to the floating rate certificates’ holders, and in most circumstances the holder of the inverse floater bears substantially all of the underlying bond’s downside investment risk. The holder of the inverse floater typically also benefits disproportionately from any potential appreciation of the underlying bond’s value. Hence, an inverse floater essentially represents an investment in the underlying bond on a leveraged basis.

Leverage: Leverage is created whenever a fund has investment exposure (both reward and/or risk) equivalent to more than 100% of the investment capital.

Lipper General & Insured Municipal Debt Funds Classification Average: Represents the average annualized total return for all reporting funds in the Lipper General & Insured Municipal Debt Funds Classification. Lipper returns account for the effects of management fees and assume reinvestment of distributions, but do not reflect any applicable sales charge.

 

  240      NUVEEN


Lipper Intermediate Municipal Debt Funds Classification Average: Represents the average annualized total return for all reporting funds in the Lipper Intermediate Municipal Debt Funds Classification. Lipper returns account for the effects of management fees and assume reinvestment of distributions, but do not reflect any applicable sales charge.

Lipper Short-Intermediate Municipal Debt Funds Classification Average: Represents the average annualized total return for all reporting funds in the Lipper Short-Intermediate Municipal Debt Funds Classification. Lipper returns account for the effects of management fees and assume reinvestment of distributions, but do not reflect any applicable sales charge.

Lipper Short Municipal Debt Funds Classification Average: Represents the average annualized total return for all reporting funds in the Lipper Short Municipal Debt Funds Classification. Lipper returns account for the effects of management fees and assume reinvestment of distributions, but do not reflect any applicable sales charges.

Net Asset Value (NAV) Per Share: A fund’s Net Assets is equal to its total assets (securities, cash and accrued earnings) less its total liabilities. For funds with multiple classes, Net Assets are determined separately for each share class. NAV per share is equal to the fund’s (or share class’) Net Assets divided by its number of shares outstanding.

Pre-Refundings: Pre-Refundings, also known as advance refundings or refinancings, occur when an issuer sells new bonds and uses the proceeds to fund principal and interest payments of older existing bonds. This process often results in lower borrowing costs for bond issuers.

S&P Municipal Bond Intermediate Index: An unleveraged, market value-weighted index containing all bonds in the S&P Municipal Bond Index that mature between 3 and 14.999 years. Index returns assume reinvestment of distributions but do not reflect any applicable sales charges or management fees.

S&P Municipal Bond Index: An unleveraged, market value-weighted index designed to measure the performance of the tax-exempt, investment-grade U.S. municipal bond market. Index returns assume reinvestment of distributions, but do not reflect any applicable sales charges or management fees.

S&P Municipal Bond Short Index: An unleveraged, market value-weighted index containing all of the bonds in the S&P Municipal Bond Index with maturities between 6 months and 3.999 years. Index returns assume reinvestment of distributions, but do not reflect any applicable sales charges or management fees.

S&P Municipal Bond Short-Intermediate Index: An unleveraged, market value-weighted index containing all bonds in the S&P Municipal Bond Index that mature between 1 and 7.999 years. Index returns assume reinvestment of distributions, but do not reflect any applicable sales charges or management fees.

Total Investment Exposure: Total investment exposure is a fund’s assets managed by the Adviser that are attributable to financial leverage. For these purposes, financial leverage includes a fund’s use of preferred stock and borrowings and investments in the residual interest certificates (also called inverse floating rate securities) in tender option bond (TOB) trusts, including the portion of assets held by a TOB trust that has been effectively financed by the trust’s issuance of floating rate securities.

Weighted Average Maturity: The average time to maturity of debt securities held in a Fund.

Weighted Average Portfolio Duration: The weighted average duration, including the effects of leverage, of a fund’s bonds and loans, which is a measure of the fund’s price sensitivity expressed in years.

Zero Coupon Bond: A zero coupon bond does not pay a regular interest coupon to its holders during the life of the bond. Income to the holder of the bond comes from accretion of the difference between the original purchase price of the bond at issuance and the par value of the bond at maturity and is effectively paid at maturity. The market prices of zero coupon bonds generally are more volatile than the market prices of bonds that pay interest periodically.

Annual Investment Management Agreement

Approval Process (Unaudited)

 

The Board of Directors or Trustees (as the case may be) (each, a “Board,” and each Director or Trustee, a “Board Member”) of the Funds, including the Board Members who are not parties to the applicable advisory or sub-advisory agreements or “interested persons” of any such parties (the “Independent Board Members”), oversees the management of its respective Fund(s), including the performance of Nuveen Fund Advisors, LLC, the Funds’ investment adviser (the “Adviser”), and Nuveen Asset Management, LLC, the Funds’ sub-adviser (the “Sub-Adviser”). As required by applicable law, after the initial term of the respective Fund following commencement of its operations, the Board is required to consider annually whether to renew the Fund’s management agreement with the Adviser (the “Investment Management Agreement”) and its sub-advisory agreement with the Sub-Adviser (the “Sub-Advisory Agreement” and, together with the Investment Management Agreement, the “Advisory Agreements”). Accordingly, the Board met in person on April 11-12, 2017 (the “April Meeting”) and May 23-25, 2017 (the “May Meeting”) to consider the approval of each Advisory Agreement that was up for renewal for an additional one-year period.

The Board considered its review of the Advisory Agreements as an ongoing process encompassing the information received and the deliberations the Board and its committees have had throughout the year. The Board met regularly during the year and received materials and discussed topics that were relevant to the annual consideration of the renewal of the Advisory Agreements, including, among other things, overall market performance and developments; fund investment performance; investment team review; valuation of securities; compliance, regulatory and risk management matters; payments to intermediaries such as 12b-1 fees, sub-transfer agency fees and other payments; and other developments. The Board had also established several standing committees, including the Open-end Fund Committee and Closed-end Fund Committee, which met regularly throughout the year to permit the Board Members to delve deeper into the topics particularly relevant to the respective product line. The Board further continued its practice of seeking to meet periodically with the Sub-Adviser and its investment team. The accumulated information, knowledge, and experience the Board Members had gained during their tenure on the Board governing the Funds and working with the Fund Advisers (as defined below) were taken into account in their review of the Advisory Agreements.

In addition to the materials received by the Board or its committees throughout the year, the Board reviewed extensive additional materials prepared specifically for its annual review of the Advisory Agreements in response to a request by independent legal counsel on behalf of the Independent Board Members. The materials addressed a variety of topics, including, but not limited to, a description of the services provided by the Adviser and Sub-Adviser (the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser are each a “Fund Adviser”); an analysis of fund performance including comparative industry data and a detailed focus on any performance outliers; an analysis of the Sub-Adviser; an analysis of the fees and expense ratios of the Nuveen funds in absolute terms and in comparison to the fees and expenses of peers with a focus on any expense outliers; an assessment of shareholder services for the Nuveen funds and of the performance of certain service providers; a review of initiatives instituted or continued during the past year; and information regarding the profitability of the Fund Advisers, the compensation of portfolio managers, and compliance and risk matters. The materials provided in connection with the annual review included information compiled and prepared by Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge” or “Lipper”), an independent provider of investment company data, comparing, in relevant part, each Fund’s fees and expenses with those of a comparable universe of funds (the “Peer Universe”) and with a more focused subset of the Peer Universe (the “Peer Group”), as selected by Broadridge (the “Broadridge Report”). The Independent Board Members also received a memorandum from independent legal counsel outlining their fiduciary duties and legal standards in reviewing the Advisory Agreements.

As part of its annual review, the Board met at the April Meeting to review the investment performance of the Funds and to consider the Adviser’s analysis of the Sub-Adviser evaluating, among other things, the Sub-Adviser’s assets under management, investment team, performance, organizational stability, and investment approach. During the review, the Independent Board Members requested and received additional information from management. At the May Meeting, the Board, including the Independent Board Members, continued its review and ultimately approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreements for an additional year. Throughout the year and throughout their review of the Advisory Agreements, the Independent Board Members were assisted by independent legal counsel and met with counsel separately without management present. In deciding to renew the Advisory Agreements, the Independent Board Members did not identify a particular factor as determinative, but rather the decision reflected the comprehensive consideration of all the information presented, and each Board Member may have attributed different weights to the various factors and information considered in connection with the approval process. The following summarizes the principal factors, but not all the factors, the Board considered in its review of the Advisory Agreements and its conclusions.

A. Nature, Extent and Quality of Services

In evaluating the renewal of the Advisory Agreements, the Independent Board Members received and considered information regarding the nature, extent and quality of the applicable Fund Adviser’s services provided to the respective Fund and the resulting performance of each Fund. The Board recognized the myriad of services the Adviser and its affiliates provided to manage and operate the Nuveen funds, including (a) product management (such as managing distributions, positioning the product in the marketplace, managing the relationships with the distribution platforms, maintaining

 

  242      NUVEEN


and enhancing shareholder communications and reporting to the Board); (b) investment oversight, risk management and securities valuation (such as overseeing the sub-advisers and other service providers, analyzing investment performance and risks, overseeing risk management and disclosure, executing the daily valuation of securities, and analyzing trade execution); (c) fund administration (such as helping to prepare fund tax returns and complete other tax compliance matters and helping to prepare regulatory filings and shareholder reports); (d) fund board administration (such as preparing board materials and organizing and providing assistance for board meetings); (e) compliance (such as helping to devise and maintain the Nuveen funds’ compliance program and test for adherence); (f) legal support (such as helping to prepare registration statements and proxy statements, interpreting regulations and policies and overseeing fund activities); (g) with respect to certain closed-end funds, providing leverage, capital and distribution management services; and (h) with respect to certain open-end funds with portfolios that have a leverage component, providing such leverage management services.

The Board further noted the Adviser’s continued dedication to investing in its business to enhance the quality and breadth of the services provided to the Funds. The Board recognized the Adviser’s investment in staffing over recent years to support the services provided to the Nuveen funds in key areas, including in investment services, product management, retail distribution and information technology, closed-end funds and structured products, as well as in fund administration, operations and risk management. The Board further noted the Adviser’s continued commitment to enhancing its compliance program by, among other things, restructuring the compliance organization, developing a unified compliance program, adding compliance staff, and developing and/or revising policies and procedures as well as building further infrastructure to address new regulatory requirements or guidance and the growth of the complex. The Board also considered the enhancements to Nuveen’s cybersecurity capabilities, systems and processes to value securities, stress test reporting and risk and control self-assessments.

In addition, the Independent Board Members considered information highlighting the various initiatives that the Adviser had implemented or continued over recent years to benefit the open-end fund and closed-end fund product lines and/or particular Nuveen funds. The Board noted the Adviser’s continued efforts to rationalize the open-end fund and closed-end fund product lines through, among other things, mergers, liquidations and repositionings in seeking to provide enhanced shareholder value over the years through increased efficiency, reduced costs, improved performance and revised investment approaches that are more relevant to current shareholder needs. With respect to open-end Nuveen funds, such initiatives also included, but were not limited to, (a) implementing the multi-class solutions platform through the launch of several multi-asset income funds; (b) creating new share classes on several funds, including Nuveen All-American Municipal Bond Fund (the “All-American Fund”), to potentially attract new clients and respond to regulatory developments; (c) reviewing the pricing of the open-end product line which resulted in the reduction of the management fee and/or temporary expense cap for various funds; (d) lowering the sales load breakpoints on certain municipal open-end funds to make them more competitive in the marketplace; (e) modifying the investment policies of various funds; and (f) creating a new product line of exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”).

With respect to municipal funds, the Independent Board Members also appreciated, in particular, the astute portfolio management of the municipal funds with respect to the Puerto Rico debt crisis.

In its review, the Board recognized that initiatives that attracted assets to the Nuveen family of funds generally benefited the Nuveen funds in the complex as fixed costs would be spread over a larger asset base and, as described below, through the complex-wide fee arrangement which generally provides that the management fees of the Nuveen funds (subject to limited exceptions) are reduced as asset levels in the complex reach certain breakpoints in the fee schedule.

Similarly, the Board considered the sub-advisory services provided by the Sub-Adviser to the Funds. The Sub-Adviser generally provided portfolio advisory services for the Funds. The Board reviewed the Adviser’s analysis of the Sub-Adviser which evaluated, among other things, the investment team and any changes thereto, the stability and history of the organization, the assets under management, the investment approach and the performance of the Nuveen funds it sub-advises. The Board noted that the Adviser recommended the renewal of the Sub-Advisory Agreements.

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

B. The Investment Performance of the Funds and Fund Advisers

As part of its evaluation of the services provided by the Fund Advisers, the Board reviewed Fund performance over the quarter, one-, three- and five-year periods ending December 31, 2016 as well as performance data for the first quarter of 2017 ending March 31, 2017. The Board reviewed performance on an absolute basis and in comparison to the performance of peer funds (the “Performance Peer Group”) and recognized and/or customized benchmarks (i.e., generally benchmarks derived from multiple recognized benchmarks). The review and analysis of performance information during the annual review of Advisory Agreements incorporated the discussions and performance information the Board Members have had at each of their quarterly meetings throughout the year.

In evaluating performance data, the Independent Board Members recognized some of the limitations of such data and the difficulty in establishing appropriate peer groups and benchmarks for certain of the Nuveen funds. They recognized that each fund operates pursuant to its own investment objective(s), parameters and restrictions which may differ from that of the Performance Peer Group or benchmark. Certain funds may also utilize

Annual Investment Management Agreement Approval Process (Unaudited) (continued)

 

leverage which may provide benefits or risks to their portfolio compared to an unlevered benchmark. The Independent Board Members had noted that management had classified the Performance Peer Groups as low, medium and high in relevancy to the applicable fund as a result of these differences or other factors. The Independent Board Members recognized that the variations between the Performance Peer Group or benchmark and the applicable Fund will lead to differing performance results and may limit the value of the comparative performance data in assessing the particular Fund’s performance.

In addition, the Independent Board Members recognized that the performance data is a snapshot in time, in this case as of the end of the 2016 calendar year or end of the first quarter of 2017. A different period may generate significantly different results and longer term performance can be adversely affected by even one period of significant underperformance. Further, a shareholder’s experience in a Fund depends on his or her own holding period which may differ from that reviewed by the Independent Board Members. The Independent Board Members also noted that although the open-end funds offer multiple classes and the performance data was based on Class A shares, the performance of the other classes of a fund should be substantially similar on a relative basis because all of the classes would be invested in the same portfolio of securities and differences in performance among classes could be principally attributed to the variations in distribution and servicing expenses of each class.

In their review of performance, the Independent Board Members focused, in particular, on the Adviser’s analysis of Nuveen funds determined to be underperforming performance outliers and the factors contributing to the respective fund’s performance and any efforts to address performance concerns. With respect to any Nuveen funds for which the Board has identified performance issues, the Board monitors such funds closely until performance improves, discusses with the Adviser the reasons for such results, considers any steps necessary or appropriate to address such issues, and reviews the results of any efforts undertaken. The Board, however, acknowledged that shareholders chose to invest or remain invested in a fund knowing that the Adviser and applicable sub-adviser manage the fund, knowing the fund’s investment strategy and seeking exposure to that strategy (even if the strategy was “out of favor” in the marketplace) and knowing the fund’s fee structure.

In reviewing the performance of the Nuveen municipal funds, the Board recognized the challenged and volatile conditions of the municipal market in the fourth quarter of 2016 which impacted the performance of many of the municipal funds. The Board further considered that the municipal market had generally rebounded in the first quarter of 2017. In reviewing the performance of the municipal funds, the Board considered the impact of the market conditions.

For the All-American Fund, the Board noted that the Fund had performed well against its Performance Peer Group, ranking in the second quartile in the one-year period and first quartile in the three- and five-year periods. Although the Fund underperformed its benchmark in the one-year period, the Fund outperformed its benchmark in the three- and five-year periods. The Board was satisfied with the Fund’s overall performance.

For Nuveen Inflation Protected Municipal Bond Fund (the “Inflation Protected Fund”), the Board noted that the Fund ranked in its Performance Peer Group in the first quartile in the one-year period, the third quartile in the three-year period and second quartile in the five-year period. The Board also noted that the Fund outperformed its benchmark in these periods. The Board was satisfied with the Fund’s overall performance.

For Nuveen Intermediate Duration Municipal Bond Fund (the “Intermediate Fund”), the Board noted that, although the Fund ranked in its Performance Peer Group in the fourth quartile in the one-year period and underperformed its benchmark in the one-, three- and five-year periods, the Fund ranked in the second quartile in the three-year period and first quartile in the five-year period. The Board was satisfied with the Fund’s overall performance.

For Nuveen Limited Term Municipal Bond Fund (the “Limited Term Fund”), the Board noted that, although the Fund ranked in its Performance Peer Group in the fourth quartile in the one-year period and underperformed its benchmark in the one-, three- and five-year periods, the Fund ranked in the third quartile in the three- and five-year periods. The Board was satisfied with the Fund’s overall performance.

For Nuveen Short Term Municipal Bond Fund (the “Short Term Fund”), the Board noted that, although the Fund underperformed its benchmark in the one-, three- and five-year periods, it ranked in its Performance Peer Group in the third quartile in the one-year period, second quartile in the three-year period, and first quartile in the five-year period. The Board was satisfied with the Fund’s overall performance.

C. Fees, Expenses and Profitability

1. Fees and Expenses

The Board evaluated the management fees and other fees and expenses of each Fund. The Board reviewed and considered, among other things, the gross management fees and after taking into effect any expense limitation arrangement and/or fee waivers (to the extent applicable), the net management fees paid by the Funds. The Board further considered the net total expense ratio of each Fund (expressed as a percentage of average net assets) as the expense ratio is most reflective of the investors’ net experience in a Fund as it directly reflected the costs of investing in the respective Fund.

In addition, the Board reviewed the Broadridge Report comparing, in relevant part, each Fund’s gross and net advisory fees and net total expense ratio with those of a Peer Universe and/or Peer Group, as applicable. The Independent Board Members also reviewed the methodology regarding the construction of the applicable Peer Universe and Peer Group by Broadridge. In reviewing the comparative data, the Board was aware that various factors may limit some of the usefulness of the data, such as differences in size of the peers; the composition of the Peer Universe or Peer

 

  244      NUVEEN


Group; changes each year of funds comprising the Peer Universe and Peer Group; and levels of expense reimbursements and fee waivers. Nevertheless, in reviewing a fund’s fees and expenses compared to the fees and expenses of its peers, the Board generally considered a fund’s expenses and fees to be higher if they were over 10 basis points higher, slightly higher if they were 6 to 10 basis points higher, in line if they were within approximately 5 basis points higher than the peer average and below if they were below the peer average of the Peer Group. The Board noted that the substantial majority of the Nuveen funds had a net expense ratio that was near or below their respective peer average.

The Independent Board Members noted that the All-American Fund, the Intermediate Fund and the Limited Term Fund each had a net management fee that was in line with its respective peer average and a net expense ratio below its respective peer average, the Inflation Protected Fund had a net management fee and net expense ratio below the peer average, and the Short Term Fund had a net management fee slightly higher than its peer average but a net expense ratio in line with the peer average.

In their evaluation of the management fee schedule, the Independent Board Members also reviewed the fund-level and complex-wide breakpoint schedules, as described in further detail below. In this regard, the Board was aware that as a result of a review of the pricing of the Nuveen open-end funds, the management fees and/or expense caps of various open-end funds had been reduced in 2016. The Independent Board Members also took into account any expense reimbursements and/or fee waivers provided by Nuveen. In addition, the Independent Board Members recognized that the fund-level breakpoint schedules of the Nuveen open-end funds recently were revised resulting in the addition of more breakpoints in the management fee schedules of the funds. The Board recognized that the revised schedules would provide for the potential of additional savings for shareholders if the respective fund’s assets under management grow and actual savings for the Intermediate Fund given its level of assets under management and the applicable revised schedule.

Based on their review of the information provided, the Board determined that each Fund’s management fees (as applicable) to a Fund Adviser were reasonable in light of the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Fund.

2. Comparisons with the Fees of Other Clients

The Board also reviewed information regarding the respective Fund Adviser’s fee rates for providing advisory services to other types of clients. For the Adviser and/or the Sub-Adviser, such other clients may include municipal separately managed accounts and passively managed ETFs sub-advised by the Sub-Adviser but that are offered by another fund complex.

The Board recognized that each Fund had an affiliated sub-adviser. In reviewing the fee rates assessed to other clients, with respect to affiliated sub-advisers, the Board reviewed, among other things, the range of fees and average fee rates assessed for managed accounts.

The Board recognized the inherent differences between the Nuveen funds and the other types of clients. The Board considered information regarding these various differences which included, among other things, the services required, product distribution, average account sizes, types of investors targeted, legal structure and operations, and applicable laws and regulations. The Independent Board Members recognized that the foregoing variations resulted in different economics among the product structures and culminated in varying management fees among the types of clients and the Nuveen funds. In general, the Board noted that higher fee levels reflected higher levels of service provided by the Fund Adviser, increased investment management complexity, greater product management requirements and higher levels of business risk or some combination of the foregoing. The Board recognized the breadth of services the Adviser provided to support the Nuveen funds as summarized above and noted that many of such administrative services may not be required to the same extent or at all for the institutional clients or other clients. The Board further recognized the passive management of ETFs compared to the active management required of other Nuveen funds would contribute to differing fee levels.

The Independent Board Members noted that the sub-advisory fees paid by the Adviser to the Sub-Adviser, however, were generally for portfolio management services. With respect to affiliated sub-advisers, the Board noted such sub-advisory fees were more comparable to the fees of retail wrap accounts and other external sub-advisory mandates.

Given the inherent differences in the various products, particularly the extensive services provided to the Funds, the Board concluded that such facts justify the different levels of fees.

3. Profitability of Fund Advisers

In conjunction with their review of fees, the Independent Board Members also considered Nuveen’s level of profitability for its advisory services to the Nuveen funds for the calendar years 2016 and 2015. In considering profitability, the Independent Board Members considered the level of profitability realized by Nuveen before the imposition of any distribution and marketing expenses incurred by the firm from its own resources. In evaluating the profitability, the Independent Board Members evaluated the analysis employed in developing the profitability figures, including the assumptions and methodology employed in allocating expenses. The Independent Board Members recognized the inherent limitations to any cost allocation methodology as different and reasonable approaches may be used and yet yield differing results. The Independent Board Members further reviewed an analysis of the history of the profitability methodology used explaining any changes to the methodology over the years. The Board has appointed two Independent Board Members, who along with independent legal counsel, helped to review and discuss the methodology employed to develop the profitability analysis each year and any proposed changes thereto and to keep the Board apprised of such changes during the year.

Annual Investment Management Agreement Approval Process (Unaudited) (continued)

 

In their review, the Independent Board Members evaluated, among other things, Nuveen’s adjusted operating margins, the gross and net revenue margins (pre-tax and after-tax) for advisory activities for the Nuveen funds, and the revenues, expenses, and net income (pre-tax and after-tax) of Nuveen for each of the last two calendar years. The Independent Board Members also reviewed an analysis of the key drivers behind the changes in revenues and expenses that impacted profitability in 2016 versus 2015. The Board, however, observed that Nuveen’s operating margins for its advisory activities in 2016 were similar to that of 2015.

In addition to reviewing Nuveen’s profitability in absolute terms, the Independent Board Members also reviewed the adjusted total company margins of other advisory firms that had publicly available information and comparable assets under management (based on asset size and asset composition). The Independent Board Members, however, noted that the usefulness of the comparative data may be limited as the other firms may have a different business mix and their profitability data may be affected by numerous other factors such as the types of funds managed, the cost allocation methodology used, and their capital structure. Nevertheless, the Board noted that Nuveen’s adjusted operating margins appeared comparable to the adjusted margins of the peers.

Further, the Adviser is a subsidiary of Nuveen, LLC, the investment management arm of Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America (“TIAA”). To have a fuller picture of the financial condition and strength of the TIAA complex, together with Nuveen, the Board reviewed a balance sheet for TIAA reflecting its assets, liabilities and capital and contingency reserves for the 2016 and 2015 calendar years.

In addition to the Adviser’s profitability, the Independent Board Members also considered the profitability of the Sub-Adviser from its relationship with the Nuveen funds. The Independent Board Members reviewed the Sub-Adviser’s revenues, expenses and revenue margins (pre- and post-tax) for its advisory activities for the calendar year ended December 31, 2016. The Independent Board Members also reviewed a profitability analysis reflecting the revenues, expenses and revenue margin (pre- and post-tax) by asset type for the Sub-Adviser for the calendar year ending December 31, 2016.

In evaluating the reasonableness of the compensation, the Independent Board Members also considered other amounts paid to a Fund Adviser for its services to the Funds as well as indirect benefits (such as soft dollar arrangements), if any, the Fund Adviser and its affiliates received or were expected to receive that were directly attributable to the management of a Fund. See Section E below for additional information on indirect benefits a Fund Adviser may receive as a result of its relationship with the Funds.

Based on a consideration of all the information provided, the Board noted that Nuveen’s and the Sub-Adviser’s level of profitability was acceptable and not unreasonable in light of the services provided.

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

When evaluating the level of the advisory fees, the Independent Board Members considered whether there will be any economies of scale that may be realized by the Fund Adviser as a Fund grows and the extent to which these economies were shared with the Funds and shareholders. The Board recognized that economies of scale are difficult to measure with precision; however, the Board considered that there were several ways the Fund Adviser may share the benefits of economies of scale with the Nuveen funds, including through breakpoints in the management fee schedule reducing the fee rates as asset levels grow, fee waivers and/or expense limitation agreements and the Adviser’s investment in its business which can enhance the services provided to the Nuveen funds. With respect to the fee structure, the Independent Board Members have recognized that economies of scale may be realized when a particular fund grows, but also when the total size of the fund complex grows (even if the assets of a particular fund in the complex have not changed or have decreased). Accordingly, subject to certain exceptions, the funds in the Nuveen complex pay a management fee to the Adviser which is generally comprised of a fund-level component and complex-level component, each of which has a breakpoint schedule. Subject to certain exceptions, the fund-level fee component declines as the assets of the particular fund grow and the complex-level fee component declines when eligible assets of all the funds (except for Nuveen ETFs which are subject to a unitary fee) in the Nuveen complex combined grow. As noted, the Board had recently approved revised fund-level breakpoint schedules for the Nuveen open-end funds which resulted in additional breakpoints added to the breakpoint schedules and therefore the potential for additional savings as a fund’s asset level grows and immediate savings for the Intermediate Fund.

The Independent Board Members also noted that additional economies of scale were shared with shareholders of the Inflation Protected Fund and the Intermediate Fund through their temporary and/or permanent expense caps. The Independent Board Members reviewed the breakpoint and complex-wide schedules and any savings achieved from fee waivers and expense reimbursements (if applicable), as well as fee reductions as a result of the fund-level and complex-level breakpoints for the 2016 calendar year. In addition, the Independent Board Members recognized the Adviser’s ongoing investment in its business to expand or enhance the services provided to the benefit of all of the Nuveen funds.

Based on their review, the Board concluded that the current fee structure was acceptable and reflected economies of scale to be shared with shareholders when assets under management increase.

E. Indirect Benefits

The Independent Board Members received and considered information regarding other benefits the respective Fund Adviser or its affiliates may receive as a result of their relationship with the Nuveen funds, including compensation paid to affiliates of a Fund Adviser for services rendered to the

 

  246      NUVEEN


funds and research services received by a Fund Adviser from broker-dealers that execute fund trades. In this regard, the Independent Board Members recognized that an affiliate of the Adviser served as the principal underwriter for the open-end funds providing distribution and shareholder services to the funds for which it may be compensated through sales charges and distribution fees and shareholder services fees pursuant to the funds’ Rule 12b-1 distribution and service plan or otherwise. The Independent Board Members therefore took into account, among other things, the 12b-1 fees retained by Nuveen during the calendar year ending December 31, 2016.

In addition to the above, the Independent Board Members considered that the Funds’ portfolio transactions are allocated by the Sub-Adviser and the Sub-Adviser may benefit from research received from broker-dealers that execute Fund portfolio transactions. The Board noted, however, that with respect to transactions in fixed income securities, such securities generally trade on a principal basis and do not generate soft dollar credits. Although the Board recognized the Sub-Adviser may benefit from a soft dollar arrangement if it does not have to pay for this research out of its own assets, the Board also recognized that the research may benefit the Funds to the extent it enhances the ability of the Sub-Adviser to manage the Funds.

Based on their review, the Board concluded that any indirect benefits received by a Fund Adviser as a result of its relationship with the Funds were reasonable and within acceptable parameters.

F. Other Considerations

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