Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm


To the Board of Directors/Trustees and Shareholders of
Nuveen Closed-End Funds:

In planning and performing our audits of the financial statements
of the funds listed in Appendix A, hereinafter referred to as the
 Funds , as of and for the year ended December 31, 2013, in
accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States), we considered the Funds
internal control over financial reporting, including controls over
safeguarding securities, as a basis for designing our auditing
procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the
financial statements and to comply with the requirements of Form
N-SAR, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Funds internal control over financial
reporting.  Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Funds internal control over financial
reporting.

The management of the Funds is responsible for establishing and
maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting.  In
fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments by
management are required to assess the expected benefits and
related costs of controls.  A companys internal control over
financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable
assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the
preparation of financial statements for external purposes in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  A
companys internal control over financial reporting includes those
policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of
records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the
transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2)
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as
necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and
that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made
only in accordance with authorizations of management and
directors/trustees of the company; and (3)  provide reasonable
assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of
unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of a companys assets
that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial
reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Also,
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are
subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because
of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the
policies or procedures may deteriorate.

A deficiency in internal control over financial reporting exists
when the design or operation of a control does not allow
management or employees, in the normal course of performing
their assigned functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a
timely basis.  A material weakness is a deficiency, or a
combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial
reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a
material misstatement of the Funds annual or interim financial
statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Our consideration of the Funds internal control over financial
reporting was for the limited purpose described in the first
paragraph and would not necessarily disclose all deficiencies in
internal control over financial reporting that might be material
weaknesses under standards established by the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  However, we noted
no deficiencies in the Funds internal control over financial
reporting and its operation, including controls over safeguarding
securities that we consider to be material weaknesses as defined
above as of December 31, 2013.

This report is intended solely for the information and use of
management and the Board of Directors/Trustees and the
Securities and Exchange Commission and is not intended to be
and should not be used by anyone other than these specified
parties.
