Dear
Shareholders,
Inflation
concerns
have
continued
to
dominate
the
investment
landscape
in
2023.
Inflation
rates
have
fallen
meaningfully
from
post-pandemic
highs,
helped
by
the
significant
policy
interest
rate
increases
from
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
(Fed)
and
other
global
central
banks
since
2022
and
the
normalization
of
supply
chains.
However,
they
currently
remain
above
the
levels
that
central
banks
consider
supportive
of
their
economies’
long-term
growth.
Core
inflation
measures,
which
exclude
volatile
food
and
energy
prices,
in
particular
remain
above
central
banks’
targeted
levels.
At
the
same
time,
the
U.S.
and
other
large
economies
have
remained
relatively
resilient,
even
as
financial
conditions
have
tightened.
U.S.
gross
domestic
product
increased
to
2.1%
in
the
second
quarter
of
2023
from
2.0%
in
the
first
quarter
of
2023,
after
growing
2.1%
in
2022
overall
compared
to
2021.
Consider
that
much
of
this
growth
occurred
while
the
Fed
was
raising
interest
rates
in
one
of
the
fastest
hiking
cycles
in
its
history.
The
Fed
increased
the
target
fed
funds
rate
from
near
zero
in
March
2022
to
a
range
of
5.25%
to
5.50%
as
of
September
2023,
pausing
briefly
in
June
2023
and
again
in
September
2023.
Despite
historically
high
inflation
and
rapidly
rising
interest
rates,
the
jobs
market
has
remained
relatively
strong,
helping
to
support
consumer
sentiment
and
spending.
However,
markets
are
concerned
that
these
conditions
could
keep
upward
pressure
on
prices
and
wages,
leading
to
interest
rates
staying
higher
for
longer
and
a
potentially
deeper
slowdown
in
the
economy.
U.S.
regional
banks
–
after
enduring
the
relatively
contained
collapses
of
Silicon
Valley
Bank,
Signature
Bank
and
First
Republic
Bank
and
major
European
bank
Credit
Suisse
in
March
2023
–
remain
exposed
to
challenges
in
the
commercial
real
estate
sector.
Additionally,
concerns
about
government
funding
and
deficits
persist.
Congress
averted
a
near-term
default
scenario
in
June
2023
and
a
partial
government
shutdown
at
the
end
of
September
2023,
but
funding
will
need
to
be
renegotiated
again
in
November
2023.
Given
the
lingering
upside
risks
to
inflation
and
the
lagging
impact
of
tighter
credit
conditions
on
the
economy,
Fed
officials
are
closely
monitoring
incoming
inflation
data
and
other
economic
measures
to
modify
their
rate
setting
activity
based
upon
these
factors
on
a
meeting-by-meeting
basis.
The
Fed
remains
committed
to
acting
until
it
sees
sustainable
progress
toward
its
inflation
goals.
In
the
meantime,
markets
are
likely
to
continue
reacting
in
the
short
term
to
news
about
inflation
data,
economic
indicators
and
central
bank
policy.
We
encourage
investors
to
keep
a
long-term
perspective
amid
the
short-term
turbulence.
Your
financial
professional
can
help
you
review
how
well
your
portfolio
is
aligned
with
your
time
horizon,
risk
tolerance
and
investment
goals.
On
behalf
of
the
other
members
of
the
Nuveen
Fund
Board,
we
look
forward
to
continuing
to
earn
your
trust
in
the
months
and
years
ahead.

Updated
Distribution
Policy
for
NAC
and
NKX
On
October
23,
2023,
the
Funds’
Board
of
Trustees
(the
“Board”)
updated
the
distribution
policy
for
NAC
and
NKX.
Each
Fund’s
distribution
policy,
which
may
be
changed
by
the
Board,
is
to
make
regular
monthly
cash
distributions
to
holders
of
its
common
shares
(stated
in
terms
of
a
fixed
cents
per
common
share
dividend
distribution
rate
which
may
be
set
from
time
to
time).
The
Fund
intends
to
distribute
all
or
substantially
all
of
its
net
investment
income
through
its
regular
monthly
distribution
and
to
distribute
realized
capital
gains
at
least
annually.
In
addition,
in
any
monthly
period,
to
maintain
its
declared
per
common
share
distribution
amount,
the
Fund
may
distribute
more
or
less
than
its
net
investment
income
during
the
period.
In
the
event
the
Fund
distributes
more
than
its
net
investment
income
during
any
yearly
period,
such
distributions
may
also
include
realized
gains
and/or
a
return
of
capital.
To
the
extent
that
a
distribution
includes
a
return
of
capital
the
NAV
per
share
will
erode.
If
the
Fund’s
distribution
includes
anything
other
than
net
investment
income,
the
Fund
will
provide
a
notice
to
shareholders
of
its
best
estimate
of
the
distribution
sources
at
that
the
time
of
the
distribution.
These
estimates
may
not
match
the
final
tax
characterization
(for
the
full
year’s
distributions)
contained
in
shareholders’
1099-DIV
forms
after
the
end
of
the
year.

Leverage
5
IMPACT
OF
THE
FUND’S
LEVERAGE
STRATEGY
ON
PERFORMANCE
One
important
factor
impacting
the
returns
of
the
Funds’
common
shares
relative
to
their
comparative
benchmarks
was
the
Funds’
use
of
leverage
through
their
issuance
of
preferred
shares
and/or
investments
in
inverse
floating
rate
securities,
which
represent
leveraged
investments
in
underlying
bonds.
The
Funds
use
leverage
because
our
research
has
shown
that,
over
time,
leveraging
provides
opportunities
for
additional
income.
The
opportunity
arises
when
short-term
rates
that
a
Fund
pays
on
its
leveraging
instruments
are
lower
than
the
interest
the
Fund
earns
on
its
portfolio
of
long-term
bonds
that
it
has
bought
with
the
proceeds
of
that
leverage.
However,
use
of
leverage
can
expose
Fund
common
shares
to
additional
price
volatility.
When
a
Fund
uses
leverage,
the
Fund’s
common
shares
will
experience
a
greater
increase
in
their
net
asset
value
if
the
municipal
bonds
acquired
through
the
use
of
leverage
increase
in
value,
but
will
also
experience
a
correspondingly
larger
decline
in
their
net
asset
value
if
the
bonds
acquired
through
leverage
decline
in
value.
All
this
will
make
the
shares’
total
return
performance
more
variable
over
time.
In
addition,
common
share
income
in
levered
funds
will
typically
decrease
in
comparison
to
unlevered
funds
when
short-term
interest
rates
increase
and
increase
when
short-term
interest
rates
decrease.
In
recent
quarters,
fund
leverage
expenses
have
generally
tracked
the
overall
movement
of
short-term
tax-exempt
interest
rates.
While
fund
leverage
expenses
are
higher
than
prior
year
lows,
leverage
nevertheless
continues
to
provide
the
opportunity
for
incremental
common
share
income,
particularly
over
longer-term
periods.
NAC
and
NKX’s
use
of
leverage
detracted
from
relative
performance
over
this
reporting
period.
As
of
August
31,
2023
,
the
Funds’
percentages
of
leverage
are
as
shown
in
the
accompanying
table.
*
Effective
Leverage
is
a
Fund’s
effective
economic
leverage,
and
includes
both
regulatory
leverage
and
the
leverage
effects
of
certain
derivative
and
other
investments
in
a
Fund’s
portfolio
that
increase
the
Fund’s
investment
exposure.
Currently,
the
leverage
effects
of
Tender
Option
Bond
(TOB)
inverse
floater
holdings
are
included
in
effective
leverage
values,
in
addition
to
any
regulatory
leverage.
Regulatory
leverage
consists
of
preferred
shares
issued
or
borrowings
of
a
Fund.
Both
of
these
are
part
of
a
Fund’s
capital
structure.
A
Fund,
however,
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
settle
portfolio
trades.
Such
incidental
borrowings
are
excluded
from
the
calculation
of
a
Fund’s
effective
leverage
ratio.
Regulatory
leverage
is
subject
to
asset
coverage
limits
set
forth
in
the
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940.

COMMON

DISTRIBUTION
INFORMATION
The
following
information
regarding the
Funds' distributions
is
current
as
of
August
31,
2023. Each
Fund's
distribution
levels
may
vary
over
time
based
on each
Fund's
investment
activity
and
portfolio
investment
value
changes.
During
the
current
reporting
period, each
Fund's
distributions
to
common
shareholders
were
as
shown
in
the
accompanying
table.
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.
Distributions
to
common
shareholders
are
determined
on
a
tax
basis,
which
may
differ
from
amounts
recorded
in
the
accounting
records.
In
instances
where
the
monthly
dividend
exceeds
the
earned
net
investment
income,
the
Fund
would
report
a
negative
undistributed
net
ordinary
income.
Refer
to the
Notes
to
Financial Statements for
additional
information
regarding
the
amounts
of
undistributed
net
ordinary
income
and
undistributed
net
long-term
capital
gains
and
the
character
of
the
actual
distributions
paid
by
the
Fund
during
the
period.
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
is
sourced
or
comprised
of
elements
other
than
net
investment
income,
including
capital
gains
and/
or
a
return
of
capital,
shareholders
will
be
notified
of
those
sources.
For
financial
reporting
purposes,
the
per
share
amounts
of
each
Fund’s
distributions
for
the
reporting
period
are
presented
in
this
report’s
Financial
Highlights.
For

tax
purposes,
distribution
information
for
each

Taxable-Equivalent
Yield
also
takes
into
account
the
percentage
of
the
Fund’s
income
generated
and
paid
by
the
Fund
(based
on
payments
made
during
the
previous
calendar
year)
that
was
either
exempt
from
federal
income
tax
but
not
from
state
income
tax
(e.g.,
income
from
an
out-of-state
municipal
bond),
or
was
exempt
from
neither
federal
nor
state
income
tax.
Separately,
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.

Developments
Regarding
the
Funds'
Control
Share
By-Law:
On
October
5,
2020,
the
Funds
and
certain
other
closed-end
funds
in
the
Nuveen
fund
complex
amended
their
by-laws.
Among
other
things,
the
amended
by-laws
included
provisions
pursuant
to
which,
in
summary,
a
shareholder
who
obtains
beneficial
ownership
of
common
shares
in
a
Control
Share
Acquisition
(as
defined
in
the
by-laws)
shall
have
the
same
voting
rights
as
other
common
shareholders
only
to
the
extent
authorized
by
the
other
disinterested
shareholders
(the
“Control
Share
By-Law”).
On
January
14,
2021,
a
shareholder
of
certain
Nuveen
closed-end
funds
filed
a
civil
complaint
in
the
U.S.
District
Court
for
the
Southern
District
of
New
York
(the
“District
Court”)
against
certain
Nuveen
funds
and
their
trustees,
seeking
a
declaration
that
such
funds’
Control
Share
By-Laws
violate
the
1940
Act,
rescission
of
such
fund’s
Control
Share
By-Laws
and
a
permanent
injunction
against
such
funds
applying
the
Control
Share
By-Laws.
On
February
18,
2022,
the
District
Court
granted
judgment
in
favor
of
the
plaintiff’s
claim
for
rescission
of
such
funds’
Control
Share
By-Laws
and
the
plaintiff’s
declaratory
judgment
claim,
and
declared
that
such
funds’
Control
Share
By-Laws
violate
Section
18(
i
)
of
the
1940
Act.
Following
review
of
the
judgment
of
the
District
Court,
on
February
22,
2022,
the
Funds'
Board
of
Trustees
(the
"Board")
amended
the
Fund’s
by-laws
to
provide
that
the
Funds'
Control
Share
By-Law
shall
be
of
no
force
and
effect
for
so
long
as
the
judgment
of
the
District
Court
is
effective
and
that
if
the
judgment
of
the
District
Court
is
reversed,
overturned,
vacated,
stayed,
or
otherwise
nullified,
the
Fund's
Control
Share
By-Law
will
be
automatically
reinstated
and
apply
to
any
beneficial
owner
of
common
shares
acquired
in
a
Control
Share
Acquisition,
regardless
of
whether
such
Control
Share
Acquisition
occurs
before
or
after
such
reinstatement,
for
the
duration
of
the
stay
or
upon
issuance
of
the
mandate
reversing,
overturning,
vacating
or
otherwise
nullifying
the
judgment
of
the
District
Court.
On
February
25,
2022,
the
Board
and
the
Funds
appealed
the
District
Court’s
decision
to
the
U.S.
Court
of
Appeals
for
the
Second
Circuit.

Significant
Accounting
Policies
The
accompanying
financial
statements
were
prepared
in
accordance
with
accounting
principles
generally
accepted
in
the
United
States
of
America
(“U.S.
GAAP”),
which
may
require
the
use
of
estimates
made
by
management
and
the
evaluation
of
subsequent
events.
Actual
results
may
differ
from
those
estimates.
Each
Fund
is
an
investment
company
and
follows
accounting
guidance
in
the
Financial
Accounting
Standards
Board
(“FASB”)
Accounting
Standards
Codification
946,
Financial
Services
—
Investment
Companies.
The
NAV
for
financial
reporting
purposes
may
differ
from
the
NAV
for
processing
security
and shareholder
transactions.
The
NAV
for
financial
reporting
purposes
includes
security
and
common
share
transactions
through
the
date
of
the
report.
Total
return
is
computed
based
on
the
NAV
used
for
processing
security
and
common
share
transactions.
The
following
is
a
summary
of
the
significant
accounting
policies
consistently
followed
by
the
Funds.
Compensation:
The
Funds pay
no
compensation
directly
to
those
of its
officers,
all
of
whom
receive
remuneration
for
their
services
to
the
Funds
from
the
Adviser
or
its
affiliates.
The Board has
adopted
a
deferred
compensation
plan
for
independent
trustees
that
enables
trustees
to
elect
to
defer
receipt
of
all
or
a
portion
of
the
annual
compensation
they
are
entitled
to
receive
from
certain
Nuveen-advised
funds.
Under
the
plan,
deferred
amounts
are
treated
as
though
equal
dollar
amounts
had
been
invested
in
shares
of
select
Nuveen-advised
funds.
Custodian
Fee
Credit:
As
an
alternative
to
overnight
investments,
each
Fund
has
an
arrangement
with
its
custodian
bank,
State
Street
Bank
and
Trust
Company,
(the
“Custodian”)
whereby
certain
custodian
fees
and
expenses
are
reduced
by
net
credits
earned
on
each
Fund’s
cash
on
deposit
with
the
bank.
Credits
for
cash
balances
may
be
offset
by
charges
for
any
days
on
which
a
Fund
overdraws
its
account
at
the
Custodian.
The
amount
of
custodian
fee
credit
earned
by
a
Fund
is
recognized
on
the
Statement
of
Operations
as
a
component
of
“Custodian
expenses,
net.”
During
the
current
reporting
period,
the
custodian
fee
credit
earned
by
each
Fund
was
as
follows:

Financial
Statements
(Unaudited)
(continued)
Distributions
to
Common
Shareholders:
Distributions
to
common shareholders
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date.
The
amount,
character
and
timing
of
distributions
are
determined
in
accordance
with
federal
income
tax
regulations,
which
may
differ
from
U.S.
GAAP.
Indemnifications:
Under
the
Funds'
organizational
documents, their
officers
and
trustees
are
indemnified
against
certain
liabilities
arising
out
of
the
performance
of
their
duties
to
the
Funds.
In
addition,
in
the
normal
course
of
business,
the Funds
enter
into
contracts
that
provide
general
indemnifications
to
other
parties.
The
Funds'
maximum
exposure
under
these
arrangements
is
unknown
as
this
would
involve
future
claims
that
may
be
made
against
the Funds
that
have
not
yet
occurred.
However,
the Funds
have
not
had
prior
claims
or
losses
pursuant
to
these
contracts
and
expects
the
risk
of
loss
to
be
remote.
Investments
and
Investment
Income
:
Securities
transactions
are
accounted
for
as
of
the
trade
date
for
financial
reporting
purposes.
Realized
gains
and
losses
on
securities
transactions
are
based
upon
the
specific
identification
method.
Investment
income
is
comprised
of
interest
income,
which
is
recorded
on
an
accrual
basis
and
includes
accretion
of
discounts
and
amortization
of
premiums
for
financial
reporting
purposes.
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.
Netting
Agreements:
In
the
ordinary
course
of
business,
the
Funds
may
enter
into
transactions
subject
to
enforceable
International
Swaps
and
Derivatives
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.
With
respect
to
certain
counterparties,
in
accordance
with
the
terms
of
the
netting
agreements,
collateral
posted
to
the
Funds
is
held
in
a
segregated
account
by
the
Funds’
custodian
and/or
with
respect
to
those
amounts
which
can
be
sold
or
repledged
,
are
presented
in
the
Funds’
Portfolio
of
Investments
or
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
The
Funds’
investments
subject
to
netting
agreements
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period,
if
any,
are
further
described
later
in
these
Notes
to
Financials.
New
Accounting
Pronouncement:
In
March
2020,
FASB
issued
Accounting
Standards
Update
("ASU")
2020-04,
Reference
Rate
Reform:
Facilitation
of
the
Effects
of
Reference
Rate
Reform
on
Financial
Reporting.
The
main
objective
of
the
new
guidance
is
to
provide
relief
to
companies
that
will
be
impacted
by
the
expected
change
in
benchmark
interest
rates,
when
participating
banks
will
no
longer
be
required
to
submit
London
Interbank
Offered
Rate
(LIBOR)
quotes
by
the
UK
Financial
Conduct
Authority
(FCA).
The
new
guidance
allows
companies
to,
provided
the
only
change
to
existing
contracts
are
a
change
to
an
approved
benchmark
interest
rate,
account
for
modifications
as
a
continuance
of
the
existing
contract
without
additional
analysis.
For
new
and
existing
contracts,
the
Funds
may
elect
to
apply
the
amendments
as
of
March
12,
2020
through
December
31,
2022.
In
December
2022,
FASB
deferred
ASU
2022-04
and
issued
ASU
2022-06,
Reference
Rate
Reform:
Deferral
of
the
Sunset
Date
of
Topic
848,
which
extends
the
application
of
the
amendments
through
December
31,
2024.
Management
has
not
yet
elected
to
apply
the
amendments,
is
continuously
evaluating
the
potential
effect
a
discontinuation
of
LIBOR
could
have
on
the
Funds’
investments
and
has
currently
determined
that
it
is
unlikely
the
ASU’s
adoption
will
have
a
significant
impact
on
the
Funds’
financial
statements
and
various
filings.
3.
Investment
Valuation
and
Fair
Value
Measurements
The
Funds’
investments
in
securities
are
recorded
at
their
estimated
fair
value
utilizing
valuation
methods
approved
by
the
Adviser,
subject
to
oversight
of
the Board.
Fair
value
is
defined
as
the
price
that
would
be
received
upon
selling
an
investment
or
transferring
a
liability
in
an
orderly
transaction
to
an
independent
buyer
in
the
principal
or
most
advantageous
market
for
the
investment.
U.S.
GAAP
establishes
the
three-tier
hierarchy
which
is
used
to
maximize
the
use
of
observable
market
data
and
minimize
the
use
of
unobservable
inputs
and
to
establish
classification
of
fair
value
measurements
for
disclosure
purposes.
Observable
inputs
reflect
the
assumptions
market
participants
would
use
in
pricing
the
asset
or
liability.
Observable
inputs
are
based
on
market
data
obtained
from
sources
independent
of
the
reporting
entity.
Unobservable
inputs
reflect
management’s
assumptions
about
the
assumptions
market
participants
would
use
in
pricing
the
asset
or
liability.
Unobservable
inputs
are
based
on
the
best
information
available
in
the
circumstances.
The
following
is
a
summary
of
the
three-tiered
hierarchy
of
valuation
input
levels.
Level
1
–
Inputs
are
unadjusted
and
prices
are
determined
using
quoted
prices
in
active
markets
for
identical
securities.
Level
2
–
Prices
are
determined
using
other
significant
observable
inputs
(including
quoted
prices
for
similar
securities,
interest
rates,
credit
spreads,
etc.).
Level
3
–
Prices
are
determined
using
significant
unobservable
inputs
(including
management’s
assumptions
in
determining
the
fair
value
of
investments).
A
description
of
the
valuation
techniques
applied
to
the
Funds’
major
classifications
of
assets
and
liabilities
measured
at
fair
value

Prices
of
fixed-income
securities
are
generally
provided
by
pricing
services
approved
by
the
Adviser,
which
is
subject
to
review
by
the
Adviser
and
oversight
of
the
Board. Pricing
services
establish
a
security’s
fair
value
using
methods
that
may
include
consideration
of
the
following:
yields
or
prices
of
investments
of
comparable
quality,
type
of
issue,
coupon,
maturity
and
rating,
market
quotes
or
indications
of
value
from
security
dealers,
evaluations
of
anticipated
cash
flows
or
collateral,
general
market
conditions
and
other
information
and
analysis,
including
the
obligor’s
credit
characteristics
considered
relevant.
In
pricing
certain
securities,
particularly
less
liquid
and
lower
quality
securities,
pricing
services
may
consider
information
about
a
security,
its
issuer
or
market
activity
provided
by
the
Adviser.
These
securities
are
generally
classified
as
Level
2.
For
any
portfolio
security
or
derivative
for
which
market
quotations
are
not
readily
available
or
for
which
the
Adviser
deems
the
valuations
derived
using
the
valuation
procedures
described
above
not
to
reflect
fair
value,
the
Adviser
will
determine
a
fair
value
in
good
faith
using
alternative
procedures
approved
by
the
Adviser,
subject
to
the
oversight
of
the
Board.
As
a
general
principle,
the
fair
value
of
a
security
is
the
amount
that
the
owner
might
reasonably
expect
to
receive
for
it
in
a
current
sale.
A
variety
of
factors
may
be
considered
in
determining
the
fair
value
of
such
securities,
which
may
include
consideration
of
the
following:
yields
or
prices
of
investments
of
comparable
quality,
type
of
issue,
coupon,
maturity
and
rating,
market
quotes
or
indications
of
value
from
security
dealers,
evaluations
of
anticipated
cash
flows
or
collateral,
general
market
conditions
and
other
information
and
analysis,
including
the
obligor’s
credit
characteristics
considered
relevant.
To
the
extent
the
inputs
are
observable
and
timely,
the
values
would
be
classified
as
Level
2;
otherwise
they
would
be
classified
as
Level
3.
The
following
table
summarizes
the
market
value
of
the
Funds’
investments
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period,
based
on
the
inputs
used
to
value
them:
The
Funds
hold
liabilities
in
floating
rate
obligations
and
preferred
shares,
where
applicable,
which
are
not
reflected
in
the
tables
above.
The
fair
values
of
the
Funds’
liabilities
for
floating
rate
obligations
approximate
their
liquidation
values.
Floating
rate
obligations
are
generally
classified
as
Level
2
and
further
described
later
in
these Notes
to
Financial
Statements.
The
fair
values
of
the
Funds’
liabilities
for
preferred
shares
approximate
their
liquidation
preference.
Preferred
shares
are
generally
classified
as
Level
2
and
further
described
later
in
these
Notes
to
Financial
Statements.
4.
Portfolio
Securities
Inverse
Floating
Rate
Securities:
Each
Fund
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
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.

Financial

(Unaudited)
(continued)
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
and
amortization
of
offering
costs”
on
the
Statement
of
Operations.
Earnings
due
from
the
Underlying
Bond
and
interest
due
to
the
holders
of
the
Floaters
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period
are
recognized
as
components
of
“Receivable
for
interest”
and
“Payable
for
interest”
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities,
respectively.
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:
During
the
current
fiscal
period,
the
average
amount
of
Floaters
(including
any
borrowings
from
a
Liquidity
Provider)
outstanding,
and
the
average
annual
interest
rates
and
fees
related
to
self-deposited
Inverse
Floaters,
were
as
follows:
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,
there
were
no
loans
outstanding
under
any
such
facility.
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
(sometimes
referred
to
as
“shortfall
payments”).
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
current
fiscal
period,
the
Funds
maximum
exposure
to
the
Floaters
issued
by
Recourse
Trusts
for
self-deposited
Inverse
Floaters
and
externally-deposited
Inverse
Floaters
was
as
follows:
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.
Purchases
and
Sales:
Long-term
purchases
and
sales
during
the
current fiscal
period
were
as
follows:
The
Funds
may
purchase
securities
on
a
when-issued
or
delayed-delivery
basis.
Securities
purchased
on
a
when-issued
or
delayed-delivery
basis
may
have
extended
settlement
periods;
interest
income
is
not
accrued
until
settlement
date.
Any
securities
so
purchased
are
subject
to
market
fluctuation
during
this
period. If
a
Fund
has
outstanding
when-issued/delayed-delivery
purchases
commitments
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period,
such
amounts
are
recognized
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
5.
Derivative
Investments
Each
Fund
is
authorized
to
invest
in
certain
derivative
instruments.
As
defined
by
U.S.
GAAP,
a
derivative
is
a
financial
instrument
whose
value
is
derived
from
an
underlying
security
price,
foreign
exchange
rate,
interest
rate,
index
of
prices
or
rates,
or
other
variables.
Investments
in
derivatives
as
of
the
end
of
and/or
during
the
current
fiscal
period,
if
any,
are
included
within
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities
and
the
Statement
of
Operations,
respectively.
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.

Notes
to
Financial
Statements
(Unaudited)
(continued)
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.

Fund
Shares
Common
Shares
Equity
Shelf
Programs
and
Offering
Costs:
NKX
and
NXC
have
filed
a
registration
statement
with
the
SEC
authorizing each
Fund
to
issue
additional
common
shares
through
one
or
more
equity
shelf
programs
(“Shelf
Offering”),
which
became
effective
with
the
SEC
during
prior
fiscal
periods.
Under
this
Shelf
Offering,
the
Funds,
subject
to
market
conditions,
may
raise
additional
equity
capital
by
issuing
additional
common
shares
from
time
to
time
in
varying
amounts
and
by
different
offering
methods
at
a
net
price
at
or
above each
Fund’s
NAV
per
common
share.
In
the
event
the
Fund’s
Shelf
Offering
registration
statement
is
no
longer
current,
the
Fund
may
not
issue
additional
common
shares
until
a
post-effective
amendment
to
the
registration
statement
has
been
filed
with
the
SEC.
Additional
authorized
common
shares,
common
shares
sold
and
offering
proceeds,
net
of
offering
costs
under
each
Fund’s
Shelf
Offering
during
the
Funds’
current
and
prior fiscal
period
were
as
follows:
Costs
incurred
by
the
Funds
in
connection
with their
initial
shelf
registrations
are
recorded
as
a
prepaid
expense
and
recognized
as
“Deferred
offering
costs”
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
These
costs
are
amortized
pro
rata
as
common
shares
are
sold
and
are
recognized
as
a
component
of
“Proceeds
from
shelf
offering,
net
of
offering
costs”
on
the
Statement
of
Changes
in
Net
Assets.
Any
deferred
offering
costs
remaining
after
the
effectiveness
of
the
initial
shelf
registration
will
be
expensed.
Costs
incurred
by
the
Fund
to
keep
the
shelf
registration
current
are
expensed
as
incurred
and
recognized
as
a
component
of
“Other
expenses”
on
the
Statement
of
Operations.
Common Share
Transactions:
Transactions
in common
shares
for
the
Funds
during
the
Funds’
current
and
prior
fiscal
period,
where
applicable,
were
as
follows:
Preferred
Shares
MuniFund
Preferred
Shares
:
NAC
and
NKX
have
issued
and
have
outstanding
MuniFund
Preferred
(“MFP”)
Shares,
with
a
$100,000
liquidation
preference
per
share.
These
MFP
Shares
were
issued
via
private
placement
and
are
not
publicly
available.
The
Funds
are
obligated
to
redeem
their
MFP
Shares
by
the
date
as
specified
in
its
offering
documents
(“Term
Redemption
Date”),
unless
earlier
redeemed
by
the
Funds.
MFP
Shares
are
initially
issued
in
a
pre-specified
mode,
however,
MFP
Shares
can
be
subsequently
designated
as
an
alternative
mode
at
a
later
date
at
the
discretion
of
the
Funds.
The
modes
within
MFP
Shares
detail
the
dividend
mechanics
and
are
described
as
follows.
At
a
subsequent
date,
the
Funds
may
establish
additional
mode
structures
with
the
MFP
Share.
•
Variable
Rate
Remarketed
Mode
(“VRRM”)
–
Dividends
for
MFP
Shares
within
this
mode
will
be
established
by
a
remarketing
agent;
therefore,
market
value
of
the
MFP
Shares
is
expected
to
approximate
its
liquidation
preference.
Shareholders
have
the
ability
to
request
a
best-efforts
tender
of
its
shares
upon
seven
days
notice.
If
the
remarketing
agent
is
unable
to
identify
an
alternative
purchaser,
the
shares
will
be
retained
by
the
shareholder
requesting
tender
and
the
subsequent
dividend
rate
will
increase
to
its
step-up
dividend
rate.
If
after
one
consecutive
year
of
unsuccessful
remarketing
attempts,
the
Fund
will
be
required
to
designate
an
alternative
mode
or
redeem
the
shares.

in

are
based
upon
a

index
plus
an
additional
fixed
“spread”
amount
established
at
the
time
of
issuance
or
renewal
/
conversion
of
its
mode.
At
the
end
of
the
period
of
the

the
Fund
will
be
required
to
either
extend
the
term
of
the
mode,
designate
an
alternative
mode
or
redeem
the
MFP
Shares.
The
fair
value
of
MFP
Shares
while
in
VRM
are
expected
to
approximate
their
liquidation
preference
so
long
as
the
fixed
“spread”
on
the
shares
remains
roughly
in
line
with
the
“spread”
being
demanded
by
investors
on
instruments
having
similar
terms
in
the
current
market.
In
current
market
conditions,
the
Adviser
has
determined
that
the
fair
value
of
the
shares
are
approximately
their
liquidation
preference,
but
their
fair
value
could
vary
if
market
conditions
change
materially.

Variable
Rate
Demand
Mode
(“VRDM”)
–
Dividends
for
MFP

will
be
established
by
a
remarketing
agent;
therefore,
the
market
value
of
the
MFP

is
expected
to
approximate
its

preference.
While

that
enable
its

to
purchase
shares
in
the

In

are
unable
to
be

remarketed
and
are
purchased
by
the

to
redeem
any

that
are
still
owned
by
a

after
six
months
of

will
pay
a
liquidity

remarketing
fee
on
the

Payments
made
by

Further
details
of

were
as

include
a

with
whom
each

has
contracted
in
the
event
that
VRDP

are
not
able

to
redeem
any
VRDP
Shares
that
are
still
owned
by
the
liquidity

after
six
months
of

Each

pays
an
annual
remarketing
fee
on
the
aggregate
principal
amount
of
all
VRDP

outstanding.
Each
Fund’s
VRDP

have
successfully

5
and

8
VRDP
Shares
are
considered
to
be
Special

to
institutional
investors.
The
special

period
will
expire
on
February
6,
2024,
September

2026
and
November
6,
2026,
for
the

respectively.
The
special
rate
period
for
NAC’s
Series
8
VRDP
Shares
is
subject
to
earlier
termination
by
either
the
Fund
or
the
holder.
During
the
special
rate
period,
the
VRDP
Shares
will
not
be
remarketed
by
a
remarketing
agent,
be
subject
to
optional
or
mandatory
tender
events,
or
be
supported
by
a
liquidity
provider
and
are
not
subject
to
remarketing
fees
or
liquidity
fees.
During
the
special
rate
period,
VRDP
dividends
will
be
set
monthly
as
a
floating
rate
based
on
the
predetermined
formula.
Following
the
initial
special

period,
Special

may
transition
to
traditional
VRDP

with
dividends
set
at
weekly
remarketings,
and
be
supported
by
designated
liquidity
provider,
or
the
Board
may
approve
a
subsequent
special
rate
period.
Dividends
on
the
VRDP
Shares
(which
are
treated
as
interest
payments
for
financial
reporting
purposes)
are
set
at
a
rate
established
by
a
remarketing
agent;
therefore,
the
market
value
of
the
VRDP
Shares
is
expected
to
approximate
its
liquidation
preference.
In
the
event
that
VRDP
shares
are
unable
to
be
successfully
remarketed,
the
dividend
rate
will
be
the
maximum
rate
which
is

according
to
a
specified
schedule
in
order
to
enhance
the
remarketing
agent’s
ability
to
successfully

the
VRDP
Shares.
Subject
to
certain
conditions,
VRDP
Shares
may
be
redeemed,
in
whole
or
in
part,
at
any
time
at
the
option
of
each
Fund.
Each
Fund
may
also
redeem
certain
of
the
VRDP

if
the
Fund
fails
to
maintain
certain
asset
coverage
requirements
and
such
failures
are
not
cured
by
the
applicable
cure
date.
The
redemption
price
per
share
is
equal
to
the
sum
of
the
liquidation
preference
per
share
plus
any
accumulated

unpaid
dividends.
The
average
liquidation
preference
of

rate
for
each

during
the
current

were

Income
Tax
Information
Each
Fund
is
a
separate
taxpayer
for
federal
income
tax
purposes.
Each
Fund
intends
to
distribute
substantially
all
of
its
net
investment
income
and
net
capital
gains
to
shareholders
and
otherwise
comply
with
the
requirements
of
Subchapter
M
of
the
Internal
Revenue
Code
applicable
to
regulated
investment
companies.
Therefore,
no
federal
income
tax
provision
is
required.
Each
Fund
intends
to
satisfy
conditions
that
will
enable
interest
from
municipal
securities,
which
is
exempt
from
regular
federal
and
designated
state
income
taxes,
and
in
the
case
of
NKX
the
alternative
minimum
tax
applicable
to
individuals
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.
Each
Fund
files
income
tax
returns
in
U.S.
federal
and
applicable
state
and
local
jurisdictions.
A
Fund's
federal
income
tax
returns
are
generally
subject
to
examination
for
a
period
of
three
fiscal
years
after
being
filed.
State
and
local
tax
returns
may
be
subject
to
examination
for
an
additional
period
of
time
depending
on
the
jurisdiction.
Management
has
analyzed
each
Fund's
tax
positions
taken
for
all
open
tax
years
and
has
concluded
that
no
provision
for
income
tax
is
required
in
the
Fund's
financial
statements.
As
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period,
the
aggregate
cost
and
the
net
unrealized
appreciation/(depreciation)
of
all
investments
for
federal
income
tax
purposes
were
as
follows:
For

cost
generally
includes
the

and
any

unrealized
for
income
statement
reporting
but

reporting,

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,
and
for
NCA
a
gross
interest
income
component.
This
pricing
structure
enables
Fund
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

an
annual
fund-level
fee,
payable
monthly,
of
0.15%
of
the

of
the

The

is
calculated
by
multiplying
the

rate,
determined
according

the
following
schedule
by
the
Fund’s
daily
managed
assets
(net

for
NCA
and

*
For
the
complex-level
fees,
managed
assets
include
closed-end
fund
assets
managed
by
the
Adviser
that
are
attributable
to
certain
types
of
leverage.
For
these
purposes,
leverage
includes
the
funds’
use
of
preferred
stock
and
borrowings
and
certain
investments
in
the
residual
interest
certificates
(also
called
inverse
floating

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,
subject
to
an
agreement
by
the
Adviser
as
to
certain
funds
to
limit
the
amount
of
such
assets
for
determining
managed
assets
in
certain
circumstances.
The
complex-level
fee
is
calculated
based
upon
the
aggregate
daily
managed
assets
of
all
Nuveen
open-end
and
closed-end
funds
that
constitute
‘’eligible
assets.”
Eligible
assets
do
not
include
assets
attributable
to
investments
in

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

effective

Other
Transactions
with
Affiliates:
Each
Fund
is
permitted
to
purchase
or
sell
securities
from
or
to
certain
other
funds
or
accounts
managed
by
the
Sub-Adviser
(“Affiliated
Entity”)
under
specified
conditions
outlined
in
procedures
adopted
by
the
Board
("cross-trade").
These
procedures
have
been
designed
to
ensure
that
any
cross-trade
of
securities
by
the
Fund
from
or
to
an
Affiliated
Entity
by
virtue
of
having
a
common
investment
adviser
(or
affiliated
investment
adviser),
common
officer
and/or
common
trustee
complies
with
Rule
17a-7
under
the
1940
Act.
These
transactions
are
effected
at
the
current
market
price
(as
provided
by
an
independent
pricing
service)
without
incurring
broker
commissions.
During
the
current
fiscal
period,
the
Funds
engaged
in
cross-trades
pursuant
to
these
procedures
as
follows:

Commitments
and
Contingencies
In
the
normal
course
of
business,
each
Fund
enters
into
a
variety
of
agreements
that
may
expose
the
Fund
to
some
risk
of
loss.
These
could
include
recourse
arrangements
for
certain
TOB
Trusts
and
certain
agreements
related
to
preferred
shares,
which
are
described
elsewhere
in
these
Notes
to
Financial
Statements.
The
risk
of
future
loss
arising
from
such
agreements,
while
not
quantifiable,
is
expected
to
be
remote.
As
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period,
the
Funds
did
not
have
any
unfunded
commitments.
From
time
to
time,
the
Funds
may
be
party
to
certain
legal
proceedings
in
the
ordinary
course
of
business,
including
proceedings
relating
to
the
enforcement
of
the
Funds’
rights
under
contracts.
As
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period,
management
has
determined
that
any
legal
proceeding(s)
the
Funds
are
subject
to,
including
those
described
within
this
report,
are
unlikely
to
have
a
material
impact
to
any
of
the
Funds’
financial
statements.

Borrowing
Arrangements
Committed
Line
of
Credit:
The
Funds,
along
with
certain
other
funds
managed
by
the
Adviser
(“Participating
Funds”),
have
established
a
364-
day,
$2.700
billion
standby
credit
facility
with
a
group
of
lenders,
under
which
the
Participating
Funds
may
borrow
for
temporary
purposes
(other
than
on-going
leveraging
for
investment
purposes).
Each
Participating
Fund
is
allocated
a
designated
proportion
of
the
facility’s
capacity
(and
its
associated
costs,
as
described
below)
based
upon
a
multi-factor
assessment
of
the
likelihood
and
frequency
of
its
need
to
draw
on
the
facility,
the
size
of
the
Fund
and
its
anticipated
draws,
and
the
potential
importance
of
such
draws
to
the
operations
and
well-being
of
the
Fund,
relative
to
those
of
the
other
Funds.
A
Fund
may
effect
draws
on
the
facility
in
excess
of
its
designated
capacity
if
and
to
the
extent
that
other
Participating
Funds
have
undrawn
capacity.
The
current
credit
facility
was
entered
into
on
June
21,
2023
expiring
on
June
19,
2024,
replacing
the
previous
facility,
which
expired
June
2023.
The
credit
facility
has
the
following
terms:
0.15%
per
annum
on
unused
commitment
amounts
and
a
drawn
interest
rate
equal
to
the
higher
of
(a)
OBFR
(Overnight
Bank
Funding
Rate)
plus
1.20%
per
annum
or
(b)
the
Fed
Funds
Effective
Rate
plus
1.20%
per
annum
on
amounts
borrowed.
The
Participating
Funds
also
incurred
a
0.05%
upfront
fee
on
the
increased
commitments
from
select
lenders.
Interest
expense
incurred
by
the
Participating
Funds,
when
applicable,
is
recognized
as
a
component
of
“Interest
expense
and
amortization
of
offering
costs”
on
the
Statement
of
Operations.
Participating
Funds
paid
administration,
legal
and
arrangement
fees,
which
are
recognized
as
a
component
of
“Interest
expense
and
amortization
of
offering
costs”
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

Inter-Fund
Borrowing
and
Lending:
The
SEC
has
granted
an
exemptive
order
permitting
registered
open-end
and
closed-end
Nuveen
funds
to
participate
in
an
inter-fund
lending
facility
whereby
the
Nuveen
funds
may
directly
lend
to
and
borrow
money
from
each
other
for
temporary
purposes
(e.g.,
to
satisfy
redemption
requests
or
when
a
sale
of
securities
“fails,”
resulting
in
an
unanticipated
cash
shortfall)
(the
“Inter-Fund
Program”).
The
closed-end
Nuveen
funds,
including
the
Funds
covered
by
this
shareholder
report,
will
participate
only
as
lenders,
and
not
as
borrowers,
in
the
Inter-Fund
Program
because
such
closed-end
funds
rarely,
if
ever,
need
to
borrow
cash
to
meet
redemptions.
The
Inter-Fund
Program
is
subject
to
a
number
of
conditions,
including,
among
other
things,
the
requirements
that
(1)
no
fund
may
borrow
or
lend
money
through
the
Inter-Fund
Program
unless
it
receives
a
more
favorable
interest
rate
than
is
typically
available
from
a
bank
or
other
financial
institution
for
a
comparable
transaction;
(2)
no
fund
may
borrow
on
an
unsecured
basis
through
the
Inter-Fund
Program
unless
the
fund’s
outstanding
borrowings
from
all
sources
immediately
after
the
inter-fund
borrowing
total
10%
or
less
of
its
total
assets;
provided
that
if
the
borrowing
fund
has
a
secured
borrowing
outstanding
from
any
other
lender,
including
but
not
limited
to
another
fund,
the
inter-fund
loan
must
be
secured
on
at
least
an
equal
priority
basis
with
at
least
an
equivalent
percentage
of
collateral
to
loan
value;
(3)
if
a
fund’s
total
outstanding
borrowings
immediately
after
an
inter-fund
borrowing
would
be
greater
than
10%
of
its
total
assets,
the
fund
may
borrow
through
the
inter-fund
loan
on
a
secured
basis
only;
(4)
no
fund
may
lend
money
if
the
loan
would
cause
its
aggregate
outstanding
loans
through
the
Inter-Fund
Program
to
exceed
15%
of
its
net
assets
at
the
time
of
the
loan;
(5)
a
fund’s
inter-fund
loans
to
any
one
fund
shall
not
exceed
5%
of
the
lending
fund’s
net
assets;
(6)
the
duration
of
inter-
fund
loans
will
be
limited
to
the
time
required
to
receive
payment
for
securities
sold,
but
in
no
event
more
than
seven
days;
and
(7)
each
inter-fund
loan
may
be
called
on
one
business
day’s
notice
by
a
lending
fund
and
may
be
repaid
on
any
day
by
a
borrowing
fund.
In
addition,
a
Nuveen
fund
may
participate
in
the
Inter-Fund
Program
only
if
and
to
the
extent
that
such
participation
is
consistent
with
the
fund’s
investment
objective
and
investment
policies.
The
Board
is
responsible
for
overseeing
the
Inter-Fund
Program.
The
limitations
detailed
above
and
the
other
conditions
of
the
SEC
exemptive
order
permitting
the
Inter-Fund
Program
are
designed
to
minimize
the
risks
associated
with
Inter-Fund
Program
for
both
the
lending
fund
and
the
borrowing
fund.
However,
no
borrowing
or
lending
activity
is
without
risk.
When
a
fund
borrows
money
from
another
fund,
there
is
a
risk
that
the
loan
could
be
called
on
one
day’s
notice
or
not
renewed,
in
which
case
the
fund may
have
to
borrow
from
a
bank
at
a
higher
rate
or
take
other
actions
to
payoff
such
loan
if
an
inter-fund
loan
is
not
available
from
another
fund.
Any
delay
in
repayment
to
a
lending
fund
could
result
in
a
lost
investment
opportunity
or
additional
borrowing
costs.
During
the
current
reporting
period,
none
of
the
Funds
covered
by
this
shareholder
report
have
entered
into
any
inter-fund
loan
activity.

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.
Effective
Leverage:
Effective
leverage
is
a
fund’s
effective
economic
leverage,
and
includes
both
regulatory
leverage
(see
leverage)
and
the
leverage
effects
of
certain
derivative
investments
in
the
fund’s
portfolio.
Currently,
the
leverage
effects
of
Tender
Option
Bond
(TOB)
inverse
floater
holdings
are
included
in
effective
leverage
values,
in
addition
to
any
regulatory
leverage.
Inverse
Floating
Rate
Securities:
Inverse
floating
rate
securities
are
the
residual
interest
in
a
tender
option
bond
(TOB)
trust,
sometimes
referred
to
as
“inverse
floaters”,
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.
Net
Asset
Value
(NAV)
Per
Share:
A
fund’s
Net
Assets
is
equal
to
its
total
assets
(securities,
cash,
accrued
earnings
and
receivables)
less
its
total
liabilities.
NAV
per
share
is
equal
to
the
fund’s
Net
Assets
divided
by
its
number
of
shares
outstanding.
Pre-Refunded
Bond/Pre-Refunding
:
Pre-Refunded
Bond/Pre-Refunding,
also
known
as
advanced
refundings
or
refinancings,
is
a
procedure
used
by
state
and
local
governments
to
refinance
municipal
bonds
to
lower
interest
expenses.
The
issuer
sells
new
bonds
with
a
lower
yield
and
uses
the
proceeds
to
buy
U.S.
Treasury
securities,
the
interest
from
which
is
used
to
make
payments
on
the
higher-yielding
bonds.
Because
of
this
collateral,
pre-refunding
generally
raises
a
bond’s
credit
rating
and
thus
its
value.
Regulatory
Leverage:
Regulatory
leverage
consists
of
preferred
shares
issued
by
or
borrowings
of
a
fund.
Both
of
these
are
part
of
a
fund’s
capital
structure.
Regulatory
leverage
is
subject
to
asset
coverage
limits
set
in
the
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940.
Tax
Obligation/General
Bonds:
Bonds
backed
by
the
general
revenues
of
an
issuer,
including
taxes,
where
the
issuer
has
the
ability
to
increase
taxes
by
an
unlimited
amount
to
pay
the
bonds
back.
Tax
Obligation/Limited
Bonds:
Bonds
backed
by
the
general
revenues
of
an
issuer,
including
taxes,
where
the
issuer
doesn’t
have
the
ability
to
increase
taxes
by
an
unlimited
amount
to
pay
the
bonds
back
.
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.
80
Annual
Investment
Management
Agreement
Approval
Process
(Unaudited)
At
a
meeting
held
on
May
23-25,
2023
(the
“May
Meeting”),
the
Boards
of
Trustees
(collectively,
the
“Board”
and
each
Trustee,
a
“Board
Member”)
of
the
Funds,
which
are
comprised
entirely
of
Board
Members
who
are
not
“interested
persons”
(as
defined
under
the
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940
(the
“1940
Act”))
(the
“Independent
Board
Members”),
approved,
for
their
respective
Fund,
the
renewal
of
the
management
agreement
(each,
an
“Investment
Management
Agreement”)
with
Nuveen
Fund
Advisors,
LLC
(the
“Adviser”)
pursuant
to
which
the
Adviser
serves
as
investment
adviser
to
such
Fund
and
the
sub-advisory
agreement
(each,
a
“Sub-Advisory
Agreement”)
with
Nuveen
Asset
Management,
LLC
(the
“Sub-
Adviser”)
pursuant
to
which
the
Sub-Adviser
serves
as
the
sub-adviser
to
such
Fund
for
an
additional
one-year
term.
As
the
Board
is
comprised
of
all
Independent
Board
Members,
the
references
to
the
Board
and
the
Independent
Board
Members
are
interchangeable.
Following
up
to
an
initial
two-year
period,
the
Board
considers
the
renewal
of
each
Investment
Management
Agreement
and
Sub-Advisory
Agreement
on
behalf
of
the
applicable
Fund
on
an
annual
basis.
The
Investment
Management
Agreements
and
Sub-Advisory
Agreements
are
collectively
referred
to
as
the
“Advisory
Agreements,”
and
the
Adviser
and
the
Sub-Adviser
are
collectively,
the
“Fund
Advisers”
and
each,
a
“Fund
Adviser.”
The
Independent
Board
Members
considered
the
review
of
the
advisory
agreements
for
the
Nuveen
funds
to
be
an
ongoing
process
and
employed
the
accumulated
information,
knowledge
and
experience
the
Board
Members
had
gained
during
their
tenure
on
the
boards
governing
the
Nuveen
funds
and
working
with
the
Adviser
and
the
applicable
sub-advisers
in
their
annual
review
of
the
advisory
agreements.
Throughout
the
year,
the
Board
and
its
committees
meet
regularly
and,
at
these
meetings,
receive
regular
and/or
special
reports
that
cover
an
extensive
array
of
topics
and
information
that
are
relevant
to
the
Board’s
annual
consideration
of
the
renewal
of
the
advisory
agreements
for
the
Nuveen
funds.
Such
information
may
address,
among
other
things,
fund
performance
and
risk
information;
the
Adviser’s
strategic
plans;
product
initiatives
for
various
funds;
the
review
of
the
funds
and
investment
teams;
compliance,
regulatory
and
risk
management
matters;
the
trading
practices
of
the
various
sub-advisers
to
the
Nuveen
funds;
management
of
distributions;
valuation
of
securities;
fund
expenses;
securities
lending;
liquidity
management;
overall
market
and
regulatory
developments;
and
with
respect
to
closed-end
funds,
capital
management
initiatives,
institutional
ownership,
management
of
leverage
financing
and
the
secondary
market
trading
of
the
closed-end
funds
and
any
actions
to
address
discounts.
The
Board
also
seeks
to
meet
periodically
with
the
Nuveen
funds’
sub-advisers
and/or
portfolio
teams,
when
feasible.
The
presentations,
discussions,
and
meetings
throughout
the
year
also
provide
a
means
for
the
Board
to
evaluate
the
level,
breadth
and
quality
of
services
provided
by
the
Adviser
and
how
such
services
have
changed
over
time
in
light
of
new
or
modified
regulatory
requirements,
changes
to
market
conditions
or
other
factors.
In
connection
with
its
annual
consideration
of
the
advisory
agreements
for
the
Nuveen
funds,
the
Board,
through
its
independent
legal
counsel,
requested
and
received
extensive
materials
and
information
prepared
specifically
for
its
review
of
such
advisory
agreements
by
the
Adviser
and
by
Broadridge
Financial
Solutions,
Inc.
(“Broadridge”),
an
independent
provider
of
investment
company
data.
The
materials
cover
a
wide
range
of
topics
including,
but
not
limited
to,
a
description
of
the
nature,
extent
and
quality
of
services
provided
by
the
Fund
Advisers;
a
review
of
product
actions
advanced
in
2022
for
the
benefit
of
particular
Nuveen
funds
and/or
the
Nuveen
fund
complex;
a
review
of
each
sub-adviser
to
the
Nuveen
funds
and/or
the
applicable
investment
team;
an
analysis
of
fund
performance
with
a
focus
on
any
Nuveen
funds
considered
performance
outliers;
an
analysis
of
the
fees
and
expense
ratios
of
the
Nuveen
funds
with
a
focus
on
any
Nuveen
funds
considered
expense
outliers;
a
review
of
management
fee
schedules;
a
description
of
portfolio
manager
compensation;
an
overview
of
the
secondary
market
trading
of
shares
of
the
Nuveen
closed-end
funds
(including,
among
other
things,
an
analysis
of
secondary
market
performance
and
commentary
regarding
the
leverage
management,
share
repurchase
and
shelf
offering
programs
of
Nuveen
closed-end
funds);
a
description
of
the
profitability
or
financial
data
of
Nuveen
and
the
sub-advisers
to
the
Nuveen
funds;
and
a
description
of
indirect
benefits
received
by
the
Adviser
and
the
sub-advisers
as
a
result
of
their
relationships
with
the
Nuveen
funds.
The
information
prepared
specifically
for
the
annual
review
supplemented
the
information
provided
to
the
Board
and
its
committees
and
the
evaluations
of
the
Nuveen
funds
by
the
Board
and
its
committees
during
the
year.
The
Board’s
review
of
the
advisory
agreements
for
the
Nuveen
funds
is
based
on
all
the
information
provided
to
the
Board
and
its
committees
throughout
the
year
as
well
as
the
information
prepared
specifically
with
respect
to
the
annual
review
of
such
advisory
agreements.
The
performance,
fee
and
expense
data
and
other
information
provided
by
a
Fund
Adviser,
Broadridge
or
other
service
providers
were
not
independently
verified
by
the
Independent
Board
Members.
As
part
of
its
review,
the
Board
met
on
April
11-12,
2023
(the
“April
Meeting”)
to
review
and
discuss,
in
part,
the
performance
of
the
Nuveen
funds
and
the
Adviser’s
evaluation
of
each
sub-adviser
to
the
Nuveen
funds
and/or
its
investment
teams.
At
the
April
Meeting,
the
Board
Members
asked
questions
and
requested
additional
information
that
was
provided
for
the
May
Meeting.
The
Independent
Board
Members
were
advised
by
independent
legal
counsel
during
the
annual
review
process
as
well
as
throughout
the
year,
including
meeting
in
executive
sessions
with
such
counsel
at
which
no
representatives
from
the
Adviser
or
the
Sub-Adviser
were
present.
In
connection
with
their
annual
review,
the
Independent
Board
Members
also
received
a
memorandum
from
independent
legal
counsel
outlining
their
fiduciary
duties
and
legal
standards
in
reviewing
the
Advisory
Agreements,
including
guidance
from
court
cases
evaluating
advisory
fees.
The
Board’s
decision
to
renew
the
Advisory
Agreements
was
not
based
on
a
single
identified
factor,
but
rather
the
decision
reflected
the
comprehensive
consideration
of
all
the
information
provided
to
the
Board
and
its
committees
throughout
the
year
as
well
as
the
materials
prepared
specifically
in
connection
with
the
renewal
process.
The
contractual
arrangements
are
a
result
of
multiple
years
of
review,
negotiation
and
information
provided
in
connection
with
the
Board’s
annual
review
of
the
Nuveen
funds’
advisory
arrangements
and
oversight
of
the
Nuveen
funds.
Each
Board
Member
may
have
attributed
different
levels
of
importance
to
the
various
factors
and
information
considered
in
connection
with
the
approval
process
and
may
place
different
emphasis
on
the
relevant
information
year
to
year
in
light
of,
among
other
things,
changing
market
and
economic
conditions.
A
summary
of
the
principal
factors
and
information,
but
not
all
the
factors,
the
Board
considered
in
deciding
to
renew
the
Advisory
Agreements
is
set
forth
below.
81
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
with
particular
focus
on
the
services
and
enhancements
or
changes
to
such
services
provided
during
the
last
year.
The
Independent
Board
Members
considered
the
Investment
Management
Agreements
and
the
Sub-Advisory
Agreements
separately
in
the
course
of
their
review.
With
this
approach,
they
considered
the
respective
roles
of
the
Adviser
and
the
Sub-Adviser
in
providing
services
to
the
Funds.
The
Board
recognized
that
the
Adviser
provides
a
wide
array
of
management,
oversight
and
administrative
services
to
manage
and
operate
the
Nuveen
funds
and
that
the
scope
and
complexity
of
these
services,
along
with
the
undertakings
required
of
the
Adviser
in
connection
with
providing
these
services,
have
expanded
over
time
as
a
result
of,
among
other
things,
regulatory,
market
and
other
developments.
The
Board
noted
the
Adviser’s
dedication
of
resources,
time,
personnel
and
capital
and
commitment
to
continuing
to
develop
improvements
and
innovations
that
seek
to
enhance
the
Nuveen
fund
complex
and
meet
the
needs
of
the
Nuveen
funds
in
an
increasingly
complex
regulatory
environment.
The
Board
received
and
reviewed
information
regarding,
among
other
things,
the
Adviser’s
investment
oversight
responsibilities,
regulatory
and
compliance
services,
administrative
duties
and
other
services.
The
Board
considered
the
breadth
and
the
quality
of
the
services
the
Adviser
and
its
various
teams
provide
in
overseeing
the
investment
management
of
the
Nuveen
funds,
including,
among
other
things,
overseeing
and
reviewing
the
services
provided
by
the
various
sub-advisers
to
the
Nuveen
funds
and
their
investment
teams;
evaluating
fund
performance
and
market
conditions;
overseeing
operational
and
investment
risks;
evaluating
investment
strategies
and
recommending
any
changes
thereto;
managing
liquidity;
managing
the
daily
valuation
of
portfolio
securities;
overseeing
trade
execution
and
securities
lending;
and
setting
and
managing
distributions
consistent
with
the
respective
fund’s
product
design.
With
respect
to
closed-end
funds,
such
services
also
include
managing
leverage;
monitoring
asset
coverage
levels
for
leveraged
funds
and
compliance
with
rating
agency
criteria;
providing
capital
management
and
secondary
market
services
(such
as
implementing
common
share
shelf
offerings,
capital
return
programs
and
common
share
repurchases);
and
maintaining
a
closed-end
fund
investor
relations
program.
The
Board
also
reviewed
the
structure
of
investment
personnel
compensation
of
each
Fund
Adviser
and
considered
whether
the
structure
provides
appropriate
incentives
to
attract
and
maintain
qualified
personnel
and
to
act
in
the
best
interests
of
the
respective
Nuveen
fund.
Given
the
Nuveen
funds
operate
in
a
highly
regulated
industry,
the
Board
further
considered
the
extensive
compliance,
regulatory
and
administrative
services
the
Adviser
and
its
various
teams
provide
to
manage
and
operate
the
Nuveen
funds.
The
Board
recognized
such
services
included,
but
were
not
limited
to,
managing
compliance
policies;
monitoring
compliance
with
applicable
policies,
laws
and
regulations;
devising
internal
compliance
programs
in
seeking
to
enhance
compliance
with
regulatory
requirements
and
creating
a
framework
to
review
and
assess
compliance
programs;
overseeing
sub-adviser
compliance
testing;
preparing
compliance
training
materials;
and
responding
to
regulatory
requests.
The
Board
reviewed
highlights
of
the
various
initiatives
Nuveen
compliance
had
taken
in
2022
including,
among
other
things,
additional
due
diligence
of
service
providers
as
their
operating
environments
evolve
post-Covid
to
more
hybrid
in-person
working
arrangements;
investments
in
supporting
and
expanding
international
trading
capabilities;
continuing
efforts
to
enhance
policies
and
controls
to
address
compliance
risks
including
those
related
to
environmental,
social
and
governance
(“ESG”)
matters
and
new
regulatory
developments
or
guidance;
and
establishing
and
maintaining
compliance
policies
and
comprehensive
compliance
training
programs.
The
Board
also
considered
information
regarding
the
Adviser’s
business
continuity,
disaster
recovery
and
information
security
programs
and
the
periodic
testing
and
review
of
such
programs.
In
addition
to
the
above
functions,
the
Board
considered
the
quality
and
extent
of
other
non-advisory
services
the
Adviser
provides
including,
among
other
things,
various
fund
administration
services
(such
as
preparing,
overseeing
or
assisting
with
the
preparation
of
tax
and
regulatory
filings);
product
management
services
(such
as
evaluating
and
enhancing
products
and
strategies);
legal
support
services;
shareholder
services
and
transfer
agency
function
oversight
services;
and
board
support
and
reporting
services.
With
respect
to
board
support
services,
the
Board
reviewed
a
summary
of
the
annual,
quarterly,
and
special
reports
the
Adviser
and/or
its
affiliates
provided
to
the
Board
throughout
2022.
The
Board
further
acknowledged
various
initiatives
the
Adviser
had
undertaken
or
continued
in
2022
in
seeking
to
improve
the
effectiveness
of
its
organization,
the
Nuveen
funds
product
line-up
as
well
as
particular
Nuveen
fund(s)
through,
among
other
things,
rationalizing
the
product
line
and
gaining
efficiencies
through
mergers,
repositionings
and
liquidations;
launching
new
funds;
reviewing
and
updating
investment
policies
and
benchmarks;
reopening
certain
funds
previously
closed
to
new
investors;
adding
or
modifying
the
share
classes
offered
by
certain
funds;
implementing
fee
waivers
and
expense
cap
changes
for
certain
funds
and
evaluating
and
adjusting
portfolio
management
teams
as
appropriate
for
various
funds;
and
developing
policy
positions
on
a
broad
range
of
regulatory
proposals
that
may
impact
the
funds
and
communicating
with
lawmakers
and
other
regulatory
authorities
to
help
ensure
these
positions
are
represented.
Aside
from
the
services
provided,
the
Board
recognized
the
financial
resources
of
the
Adviser
and
its
affiliates
and
their
willingness
to
make
investments
in
the
technology,
personnel
and
infrastructure
to
support
the
Nuveen
funds,
including
maintaining
a
seed
capital
budget
to
support
new
or
existing
funds
and/or
facilitate
changes
for
a
respective
fund.
The
Board
noted
the
benefits
to
shareholders
of
investing
in
a
fund
that
is
a
part
of
a
large
fund
complex
with
a
variety
of
investment
disciplines,
capabilities,
expertise
and
resources
available
to
navigate
and
support
the
Nuveen
funds
including
during
stressed
times.
The
Board
recognized
the
overall
reputation
and
capabilities
of
the
Adviser
and
its
affiliates,
the
Adviser’s
continuing
commitment
to
provide
high
quality
services,
its
willingness
to
implement
operational
or
organizational
changes
in
seeking,
among
other
things,
to
enhance
efficiencies
and
services
to
the
Nuveen
funds
and
its
responsiveness
to
the
Board’s
questions
and/or
concerns
raised
throughout
the
year
and
during
the
annual
review
of
advisory
agreements.
The
Board
also
considered
the
significant
risks
borne
by
the
Adviser
and
its
affiliates
in
connection
with
their
services
to
the
Nuveen
funds,
including
entrepreneurial
risks
in
sponsoring
new
funds
and
ongoing
risks
with
managing
the
funds
such
as
investment,
operational,
reputational,
regulatory,
compliance
and
litigation
risks.
The
Board
further
considered
the
division
of
responsibilities
between
the
Adviser
and
the
Sub-Adviser
and
recognized
that
the
Sub-Adviser
and
its
investment
personnel
generally
are
responsible
for
the
management
of
each
Fund’s
portfolio
under
the
oversight
of
the
Adviser
and
the
Board.
The
Board
considered
an
analysis
of
the
Sub-Adviser
provided
by
the
Adviser
which
included,
among
other
things,
the
assets
under
management
of
the
applicable
investment
team
and
changes
thereto,
a
summary
of
the
applicable
investment
team
and
changes
to
such
team,
the
investment
process
82
Annual
Investment
Management
Agreement
Approval
Process
(Unaudited)
(continued)
and
philosophy
of
the
applicable
investment
team,
the
performance
of
the
Nuveen
funds
sub-advised
by
the
Sub-Adviser
over
various
periods
of
time
and
a
summary
of
any
significant
policy
and/or
other
changes
to
the
Nuveen
funds
sub-advised
by
the
Sub-Adviser.
The
Board
further
considered
at
the
May
Meeting
or
prior
meetings
evaluations
of
the
Sub-Adviser’s
compliance
programs
and
trade
execution.
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
In
evaluating
the
quality
of
the
services
provided
by
the
Fund
Advisers,
the
Board
also
considered
a
variety
of
investment
performance
data
of
the
Nuveen
funds
prepared
specifically
for
the
annual
review
of
the
advisory
agreements
as
well
as
the
performance
data
the
Board
received
throughout
the
year
representing
different
time
periods.
In
this
regard,
leading
into
the
May
Meeting,
the
Board
reviewed,
among
other
things,
Fund
performance
over
the
quarter,
one-,
three-
and
five-year
periods
ending
December 31,
2022
and
March
31,
2023.
In
addition,
the
Board
reviewed
and
discussed
performance
data
at
its
regularly
scheduled
quarterly
meetings
during
the
year.
The
Board
therefore
took
into
account
the
performance
data,
presentations
and
discussions
(written
and
oral)
that
have
been
provided
for
the
annual
review
as
well
as
in
prior
meetings
over
time
in
evaluating
fund
performance,
including
the
Adviser’s
analysis
of
a
fund’s
performance
with
particular
focus
on
performance
outliers
(both
overperformance
and
underperformance),
the
factors
contributing
to
performance
(including
relative
to
a
fund’s
benchmark
and
peers
and
the
impact
of
market
conditions)
and
any
recommendations
or
steps
that
had
been
taken
or
were
proposed
to
be
taken
to
address
significant
performance
concerns.
In
this
regard,
the
Board
noted,
among
other
things,
that
certain
Nuveen
funds
had
changes
in
portfolio
managers
or
other
significant
changes
to
their
investment
strategies
or
policies
since
March
2020,
and,
as
a
result,
the
Board
reviewed
certain
tracking
performance
data
comparing
the
performance
of
such
funds
before
and
after
such
changes.
The
Board
recognized
that
performance
data
reflects
performance
over
a
specified
period
which
may
differ
significantly
depending
on
the
ending
dates
selected,
particularly
during
periods
of
market
volatility.
Further,
the
Board
noted
that
shareholders
may
evaluate
performance
based
on
their
own
respective
holding
periods
which
may
differ
from
the
performance
periods
reviewed
by
the
Board
and
lead
to
differing
results.
In
its
evaluation,
the
Board
reviewed
Nuveen
fund
performance
results
from
different
perspectives.
In
general,
subject
to
certain
exceptions,
the
Board
reviewed
both
absolute
and
relative
fund
performance
during
the
annual
review
over
the
various
time
periods
and
evaluated
performance
results
in
light
of
a
fund’s
investment
objective(s),
strategies
and
risks.
With
respect
to
the
relative
performance,
the
Board
considered
fund
performance
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).
In
reviewing
such
comparative
performance,
the
Board
was
cognizant
of
the
inherent
limitations
of
such
data
which
can
make
meaningful
performance
comparisons
generally
difficult.
As
an
illustration,
differences
in
the
composition
of
the
Performance
Peer
Group,
the
investment
objective(s),
strategies
and
other
characteristics
of
the
peers
in
the
Performance
Peer
Group,
the
level,
type
and
cost
of
leverage
(if
any)
of
the
peers,
and
the
varying
sizes
of
peers
all
may
contribute
to
differences
in
the
performance
results
of
a
Performance
Peer
Group
compared
to
the
applicable
Nuveen
fund.
With
respect
to
relative
performance
of
a
Nuveen
fund
compared
to
a
benchmark
index,
differences,
among
other
things,
in
the
investment
objective(s)
and
strategies
of
a
fund
and
the
benchmark
(particularly
an
actively
managed
fund
that
does
not
directly
follow
an
index)
as
well
as
the
costs
of
operating
a
fund
would
necessarily
contribute
to
differences
in
performance
results
and
limit
the
value
of
the
comparative
performance
information.
To
assist
the
Board
in
its
review
of
the
comparability
of
the
relative
performance,
the
Adviser
has
ranked
the
relevancy
of
the
peer
group
to
the
Funds
as
low,
medium
or
high.
The
secondary
market
trading
of
shares
of
the
Nuveen
closed-end
funds
also
continues
to
be
a
priority
for
the
Board
given
its
importance
to
shareholders,
and
therefore
the
Board
and/or
its
Closed-end
Fund
committee
reviews
certain
performance
data
reflecting,
among
other
things,
the
premiums
and
discounts
at
which
the
shares
of
the
Nuveen
closed-end
funds
have
traded
over
specified
periods
throughout
the
year.
In
its
review,
the
Board
considers,
among
other
things,
changes
to
investment
mandates
and
guidelines,
distribution
policies,
leverage
levels
and
types;
share
repurchases
and
similar
capital
market
actions;
and
effective
communications
programs
to
build
greater
awareness
and
deepen
understanding
of
closed-end
funds.
As
applicable,
the
Board
considered
the
impact
of
leverage
on
a
Nuveen
fund’s
performance.
The
Board
further
acknowledged
that
performance
results
should
include
the
distribution
yields
of
funds
that
seek
to
provide
income
as
part
of
their
investment
objective(s)
to
shareholders.
In
this
regard,
the
Board
considered
that
the
use
of
leverage
by
various
funds
may
have
detracted
from
total
return
performance
of
such
funds
over
various
periods
in
current
market
conditions,
but
the
leverage
also
was
accretive
in
helping
to
provide
income.
The
Board
also
evaluated
Nuveen
fund
performance
in
light
of
various
relevant
factors
which
may
include,
among
other
things,
general
market
conditions,
issuer-specific
information,
asset
class
information,
leverage
and
fund
cash
flows.
The
Board
acknowledged
that
long-term
performance
could
be
impacted
by
even
one
period
of
significant
outperformance
or
underperformance
and
that
a
single
investment
theme
could
disproportionately
affect
performance.
Further,
the
Board
recognized
that
the
market
and
economic
conditions
may
significantly
impact
a
fund’s
performance,
particularly
over
shorter
periods,
and
such
performance
may
be
more
reflective
of
such
economic
or
market
events
and
not
necessarily
reflective
of
management
skill.
Although
the
Board
reviews
short-,
intermediate-
and
longer-term
performance
data,
the
Board
recognized
that
longer
periods
of
performance
may
reflect
full
market
cycles.
In
relation
to
recent
general
market
conditions,
the
Board
had
recognized
the
general
market
volatility
and
underperformance
of
the
market
in
2022
in
considering
Nuveen
fund
performance.
The
Board
took
into
account
the
Adviser’s
assessment
of
a
fund’s
performance
during
the
recent
period
of
significant
market
volatility.
In
their
review
from
year
to
year,
the
Board
Members
consider
and
may
place
different
emphasis
on
the
relevant
information
in
light
of
changing
circumstances
in
market
and
economic
conditions.
In
evaluating
performance,
the
Board
focused
particular
attention
on
funds
with
less
favorable
performance
records.
However,
depending
on
the
facts
and
circumstances
including
any
differences
between
the
respective
fund
and
its
benchmark
and/or
Performance
Peer
Group,
the
Board
may
be
satisfied
with
a
fund’s
performance
notwithstanding
83
that
its
performance
may
be
below
that
of
its
benchmark
and/or
peer
group
for
certain
periods.
With
respect
to
any
funds
for
which
the
Board
has
identified
performance
issues,
the
Board
seeks
to
monitor
such
funds
closely
until
performance
improves,
discusses
with
the
Adviser
the
reasons
for
such
results,
considers
whether
any
steps
are
necessary
or
appropriate
to
address
such
issues,
and
reviews
the
results
of
any
steps
undertaken.
The
Board’s
determinations
with
respect
to
each
Fund
are
summarized
below.
For
Nuveen
California
Quality
Municipal
Income
Fund
(the
“California
Quality
Fund”),
the
Board
noted
that
the
Fund’s
performance
was
below
the
performance
of
its
benchmark
for
the
one-,
three-
and
five-year
periods
ended
December
31,
2022
and
March
31,
2023.
The
Fund,
however,
ranked
in
the
third
quartile
of
its
Performance
Peer
Group
for
the
one-,
three-
and
five-year
periods
ended
December
31,
2022.
In
addition,
the
Fund
ranked
in
the
fourth
quartile
of
its
Performance
Peer
Group
for
the
three-
and
five-year
periods
ended
March
31,
2023,
but
ranked
in
the
third
quartile
for
the
one-year
period
ended
March
31,
2023.
On
the
basis
of
the
Board’s
ongoing
review
of
investment
performance
and
all
relevant
factors,
including
the
relative
market
conditions
during
certain
reporting
periods,
the
Fund’s
investment
objective(s)
and
management’s
discussion
of
performance,
the
Board
concluded
that
in
light
of
these
factors,
the
Fund’s
performance
supported
renewal
of
the
Advisory
Agreements.
For
Nuveen
California
AMT-Free
Quality
Municipal
Income
Fund
(the
“California
AMT-Free
Quality
Fund”),
the
Board
noted
that
the
Fund’s
performance
was
below
the
performance
of
its
benchmark
for
the
one-,
three-
and
five-year
periods
ended
December
31,
2022
and
March
31,
2023.
The
Fund,
however,
ranked
in
the
third
quartile
of
its
Performance
Peer
Group
for
the
one-
and
three-year
periods
ended
December
31,
2022
and
second
quartile
for
the
five-year
period
ended
December
31,
2022.
Further,
although
the
Fund
ranked
in
the
fourth
quartile
of
its
Performance
Peer
Group
for
the
three-year
period
ended
March
31,
2023,
the
Fund
ranked
in
the
third
quartile
of
its
Performance
Peer
Group
for
the
one-year
period
ended
March
31,
2023
and
second
quartile
for
the
five-year
period
ended
March
31,
2023.
On
the
basis
of
the
Board’s
ongoing
review
of
investment
performance
and
all
relevant
factors,
including
the
relative
market
conditions
during
certain
reporting
periods,
the
Fund’s
investment
objective(s)
and
management’s
discussion
of
performance,
the
Board
concluded
that
in
light
of
these
factors,
the
Fund’s
performance
supported
renewal
of
the
Advisory
Agreements.
For
Nuveen
California
Municipal
Value
Fund
(the
“California
Municipal
Value
Fund”),
the
Board
noted
that
although
the
Fund’s
performance
was
below
the
performance
of
its
benchmark
for
the
one-,
three-
and
five-year
periods
ended
December
31,
2022,
the
Fund
ranked
in
the
first
quartile
of
its
Performance
Peer
Group
for
such
periods.
The
Fund’s
performance
was
also
below
the
performance
of
its
benchmark
for
the
one-,
three-
and
five-year
periods
ended
March
31,
2023,
but
the
Fund
ranked
in
the
first
quartile
of
its
Performance
Peer
Group
for
the
one-
and
five-year
periods
ended

and
ranked
in
the
second
quartile
for
the
three-year
period
ended
March
31,
2023.
In
its
review,
the
Board
recognized
that
the
Performance
Peer
Group
was
classified
as
low
for
relevancy.
On
the
basis
of
the
Board’s
ongoing
review
of
investment
performance
and
all
relevant
factors,
including
the
relative
market
conditions
during
certain
reporting
periods,
the
Fund’s
investment
objective(s)
and
management’s
discussion
of
performance,
the
Board
concluded
that
in
light
of
these
factors,
the
Fund’s
performance
supported
renewal
of
the
Advisory
Agreements.
For
Nuveen
California
Select
Tax-Free
Income
Portfolio
(the
“California
Select
Fund”),
the
Board
noted
that
although
the
Fund’s
performance
was
below
the
performance
of
its
benchmark
for
the
one-,
three-
and
five-year
periods
ended
December
31,
2022,
the
Fund
ranked
in
the
first
quartile
of
its
Performance
Peer
Group
for
such
periods.
In
addition,
although
the
Fund’s
performance
was
below
the
performance
of
its
benchmark
for
the
one-
and
three-year
periods
ended
March
31,
2023,
the
Fund
outperformed
its
benchmark
for
the
five-year
period
ended
March
31,
2023
and
ranked
in
the
first
quartile
of
its
Performance
Peer
Group
for
the
one-,
three-
and
five-year
periods
ended
March

Fees,
Expenses
and
Profitability
1.
Fees
and
Expenses
As
part
of
its
annual
review,
the
Board
generally
reviewed,
among
other
things,
with
respect
to
the
Nuveen
closed-end
funds,
the
contractual
management
fee
and
actual
management
fee
(i.e.,
the
management
fee
after
taking
into
consideration
fee
waivers
and/or
expense
reimbursements,
if
any)
paid
by
a
fund
to
the
Adviser
in
light
of
the
nature,
extent
and
quality
of
the
services
provided.
The
Board
also
considered
the
total
operating
expense
ratio
of
a
fund
(after
any
fee
waivers
and/or
expense
reimbursements).
More
specifically,
the
Independent
Board
Members
reviewed,
among
other
things,
each
Nuveen
closed-end
fund’s
actual
management
fee
rate
(after
fee
waivers
and/or
expense
reimbursements,
if
any)
and
net
total
expense
ratio
in
relation
to
those
of
a
comparable
universe
of
funds
(the
“Peer
Universe”)
established
by
Broadridge.
The
Independent
Board
Members
reviewed
the
methodology
Broadridge
employed
to
establish
its
Peer
Universe
and
recognized
that
differences
between
the
applicable
fund
and
its
respective
Peer
Universe
as
well
as
changes
to
the
composition
of
the
Peer
Universe
from
year
to
year
may
limit
some
of
the
value
of
the
comparative
data.
The
Independent
Board
Members
take
these
limitations
and
differences
into
account
when
reviewing
comparative
peer
data.
The
Independent
Board
Members
also
considered
a
fund’s
operating
expense
ratio
as
it
more
directly
reflected
the
shareholder’s
costs
in
investing
in
the
respective
fund.
84
Annual
Investment
Management
Agreement
Approval
Process
(Unaudited)
(continued)
In
their
review,
the
Independent
Board
Members
considered,
in
particular,
each
Nuveen
fund
with
a
net
total
expense
ratio
(excluding
investment-related
costs
of
leverage
for
closed-end
funds)
of
six
basis
points
or
higher
compared
to
that
of
its
peer
average
(each,
an
“Expense
Outlier
Fund”)
and
an
analysis
as
to
the
factors
contributing
to
each
such
fund’s
higher
relative
net
total
expense
ratio.
In
addition,
although
the
Board
reviewed
a
fund’s
total
net
expenses
both
including
and
excluding
investment-related
expenses
(i.e.,
leverage
costs)
for
certain
of
the
closed-end
funds,
the
Board
recognized
that
leverage
expenses
will
vary
across
funds
and
in
comparison
to
peers
because
of
differences
in
the
forms
and
terms
of
leverage
employed
by
the
respective
fund.
Accordingly,
in
reviewing
the
comparative
data
between
a
fund
and
its
peers,
the
Board
generally
considered
the
fund’s
net
total
expense
ratio
and
fees
(excluding
leverage
costs
and
leveraged
assets
for
the
closed-end
funds)
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
Universe.
The
Independent
Board
Members
also
considered,
in
relevant
part,
a
Nuveen
fund’s
management
fee
and
net
total
expense
ratio
in
light
of
its
performance
history,
including
reviewing
certain
funds
identified
by
the
Adviser
and/or
the
Board
as
having
a
higher
net
total
expense
ratio
or
management
fee
compared
to
their
respective
peers
coupled
with
experiencing
periods
of
challenged
performance
and
considering
the
reasons
for
such
comparative
positions.
In
addition,
with
respect
to
closed-end
funds
that
utilize
leverage,
the
Independent
Board
Members
recognized
that
certain
assets
attributable
to
a
fund’s
use
of
leverage
may
be
included
in
the
amount
of
assets
upon
which
the
advisory
fee
or
sub-advisory
fee
is
calculated.
The
Independent
Board
Members
acknowledged
the
fact
that
a
decision
to
employ
leverage
or
increase
a
fund’s
leverage
which
has
the
effect,
all
other
things
being
equal,
of
increasing
the
assets
upon
which
an
advisory
or
sub-
advisory
fee
is
based
(and,
in
turn,
increasing
the
Adviser’s
and
applicable
sub-adviser’s
management
fees),
means
that
the
Adviser
and
applicable
sub-adviser
may
have
a
conflict
of
interest
in
determining
whether
to
use
or
increase
leverage.
The
Independent
Board
Members
recognized,
however,
that
the
Adviser
and
sub-advisers
would
seek
to
manage
the
potential
conflict
by
recommending
to
the
Board
to
leverage
the
applicable
fund
or
increase
such
leverage
when
the
Adviser
and/or
sub-adviser,
as
applicable,
has
determined
that
such
action
would
be
in
the
best
interests
of
the
respective
fund
and
its
common
shareholders
and
by
periodically
reviewing
with
the
Board
the
fund’s
performance
and
the
impact
of
the
use
of
leverage
on
that
performance.
In
their
review
of
the
fee
arrangements
for
the
Nuveen
funds,
the
Independent
Board
Members
also
considered
the
management
fee
schedules,
including
the
complex-wide
and
fund-level
breakpoint
schedules,
as
applicable.
The
Board
noted
that
across
the
Nuveen
fund
complex,
the
complex-wide
fee
breakpoints
reduced
fees
by
approximately
$62.4 million
and
fund-level
breakpoints
reduced
fees
by
approximately
$76.1 million
in
2022.
With
respect
to
the
Sub-Adviser,
the
Board
also
considered,
among
other
things,
the
sub-advisory
fee
schedule
paid
to
the
Sub-Adviser
in
light
of
the
sub-advisory
services
provided
to
the
respective
Fund
and
comparative
data
of
the
fees
the
Sub-Adviser
charges
to
other
clients,
if
any.
In
its
review,
the
Board
recognized
that
the
compensation
paid
to
the
Sub-Adviser
is
the
responsibility
of
the
Adviser,
not
the
Funds.
The
Independent
Board
Members
noted
that
(a)
the
California
AMT-Free
Quality
Fund
had
an
actual
management
fee
that
was
below
the
peer
average
and
a
net
total
expense
ratio
that
was
in
line
with
the
peer
average;
and
(b)
the
California
Quality
Fund,
California
Municipal
Value
Fund
and
California
Select
Fund
each
had
an
actual
management
fee
and
a
net
total
expense
ratio
that
were
below
the
respective
peer
averages.
Based
on
its
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
In
evaluating
the
appropriateness
of
fees,
the
Board
also
considered
information
regarding
the
fee
rates
the
respective
Fund
Advisers
charged
to
certain
other
types
of
clients
and
the
type
of
services
provided
to
these
other
clients.
With
respect
to
the
municipal
Nuveen
funds,
such
other
clients
may
include
retail
and
institutional
municipal
managed
accounts
sub-advised
by
the
Sub-Adviser,
municipal
exchange-traded
funds
(“ETFs”)
sub-advised
by
the
Sub-Adviser
that
are
offered
by
another
fund
complex,
municipal
managed
accounts
offered
by
an
unaffiliated
adviser
and
certain
municipal
private
limited
partnerships
offered
by
Nuveen.
The
Board
reviewed,
among
other
things,
the
fee
range
and
average
fee
of
municipal
retail
advisory
accounts
and
municipal
institutional
accounts,
the
sub-advisory
fee
the
Sub-Adviser
received
for
serving
as
sub-adviser
to
certain
municipal
ETFs
offered
outside
the
Nuveen
family
and
the
management
fee
rates
paid
by
the
municipal
private
limited
partnerships
operated
by
Nuveen.
In
considering
the
comparative
fee
data,
the
Board
recognized
that
differences,
including
but
not
limited
to,
the
amount,
type
and
level
of
services
provided
by
the
Adviser
to
the
Nuveen
funds
compared
to
that
provided
to
other
clients
as
well
as
differences
in
investment
policies;
eligible
portfolio
assets
and
the
manner
of
managing
such
assets;
product
structure;
investor
profiles;
account
sizes;
and
regulatory
requirements
contribute
to
the
variations
in
the
fee
schedules.
The
Board
acknowledged
the
wide
range
of
services
in
addition
to
investment
management
that
the
Adviser
had
provided
to
the
Nuveen
funds
compared
to
other
types
of
clients
as
well
as
the
increased
entrepreneurial,
legal
and
regulatory
risks
that
the
Adviser
incurs
in
sponsoring
and
managing
the
Nuveen
funds.
In
general,
higher
fee
levels
reflect
higher
levels
of
service
provided
by
the
Adviser,
increased
investment
management
complexity,
greater
product
management
requirements,
and
higher
levels
of
business
risk
or
some
combination
of
these
factors.
The
Board
further
considered
that
the
Sub-Adviser’s
fee
is
essentially
for
portfolio
management
services
and
therefore
more
comparable
to
the
fees
it
receives
for
retail
wrap
accounts
and
other
external
sub-advisory
mandates.
The
Board
concluded
the
varying
levels
of
fees
were
justified
given,
among
other
things,
the
more
extensive
services,
regulatory
requirements
and
legal
liabilities,
and
the
entrepreneurial,
legal
and
regulatory
risks
incurred
in
sponsoring
and
advising
a
registered
investment
company
compared
to
that
required
in
advising
other
types
of
clients.

3.
Profitability
of
Fund
Advisers
In
their
review,
the
Independent
Board
Members
considered
estimated
profitability
information
of
Nuveen
as
a
result
of
its
advisory
services
to
the
Nuveen
funds
as
well
as
profitability
data
of
other
publicly
traded
asset
management
firms.
Such
profitability
information
included,
among
other
things,
gross
and
net
revenue
margins
(excluding
distribution)
of
Nuveen
Investments,
Inc.
(“Nuveen
Investments”)
for
services
to
the
Nuveen
funds
on
a
pre-tax
and
after-tax
basis
for
the
2022
and
2021
calendar
years
as
well
as
the
revenues
earned
(less
any
expense
reimbursements/fee
waivers)
and
expenses
incurred
by
Nuveen
Investments
for
its
advisory
activities
to
the
Nuveen
funds
(excluding
distribution
and
certain
other
expenses)
for
the
2022
and
2021
calendar
years.
The
Independent
Board
Members
also
considered
a
summary
of
some
of
the
key
factors
that
impacted
Nuveen’s
profitability
in
2022.
In
addition,
the
Board
reviewed
the
revenues,
expenses
and
operating
margin
(pre-
and
after-tax)
the
Adviser
derived
from
its
ETF
product
line
for
the
2022
and
2021
calendar
years.
In
developing
the
profitability
data
of
the
Adviser
for
its
advisory
services
to
the
Nuveen
funds,
the
Independent
Board
Members
recognized
the
subjective
nature
of
calculating
profitability
as
the
information
is
not
audited
and
is
necessarily
dependent
on
cost
allocation
methodologies
to
allocate
expenses
throughout
the
complex
and
among
the
various
advisory
products.
Given
there
is
no
perfect
expense
allocation
methodology
and
that
other
reasonable
and
valid
allocation
methodologies
could
be
employed
and
could
lead
to
significantly
different
results,
the
Board
reviewed,
among
other
things,
a
description
of
the
cost
allocation
methodologies
employed
to
develop
the
financial
information,
a
summary
of
the
history
of
changes
to
the
methodology
over
the
years
from
2010
through
2022,
and
a
historical
expense
analysis
of
Nuveen
Investments’
revenues,
expenses
and
pre-tax
net
revenue
margins
derived
from
its
advisory
services
to
the
Nuveen
funds
(excluding
distribution)
for
the
calendar
years
from
2017
through
2022.
The
Board
had
also
appointed
four
Independent
Board
Members
to
serve
as
the
Board’s
liaisons,
with
the
assistance
of
independent
counsel,
to
meet
with
representatives
of
the
Adviser
and
review
the
development
of
the
profitability
data
and
to
report
to
the
full
Board.
In
addition,
the
Board
considered
certain
comparative
operating
margin
data.
In
this
regard,
the
Board
reviewed
the
operating
margins
of
Nuveen
Investments
compared
to
the
adjusted
operating
margins
of
a
peer
group
of
asset
management
firms
with
publicly
available
data
and
the
most
comparable
assets
under
management
(based
on
asset
size
and
asset
composition)
to
Nuveen.
The
Board
recognized
that
the
operating
margins
of
the
peers
were
adjusted
generally
to
address
that
certain
services
provided
by
the
peers
were
not
provided
by
Nuveen.
The
Board
also
reviewed,
among
other
things,
the
net
revenue
margins
(pre-tax)
of
Nuveen
Investments
on
a
company-wide
basis
and
the
net
revenue
margins
(pre-tax)
of
Nuveen
Investments
derived
from
its
services
to
the
Nuveen
funds
only
(including
and
excluding
distribution)
compared
to
the
adjusted
operating
margins
of
the
peer
group
for
each
calendar
year
from
2012
to
2022.
Although
the
total
company
operating
margins
of
Nuveen
Investments
were
in
the
bottom
half
of
the
peer
group
range
for
2022
and
2021,
the
Independent
Board
Members
recognized
the
limitations
of
the
comparative
data
given
that
peer
data
is
not
generally
public
and
the
calculation
of
profitability
is
subjective
and
affected
by
numerous
factors
(such
as
types
of
funds
a
peer
manages,
its
business
mix,
its
cost
of
capital,
the
numerous
assumptions
underlying
the
methodology
used
to
allocate
expenses
and
other
factors)
that
can
have
a
significant
impact
on
the
results.
Aside
from
Nuveen’s
profitability,
the
Board
recognized
that
the
Adviser
is
a
subsidiary
of
Nuveen,
LLC,
the
investment
management
arm
of
Teachers
Insurance
and
Annuity
Association
of
America
(“TIAA”).
Accordingly,
the
Board
also
reviewed
a
balance
sheet
for
TIAA
reflecting
its
assets,
liabilities
and
capital
and
contingency
reserves
for
the
2022
and
2021
calendar
years
to
consider
the
financial
strength
of
TIAA.
The
Board
recognized
the
benefit
of
an
investment
adviser
and
its
parent
with
significant
resources,
particularly
during
periods
of
market
volatility.
The
Board
also
noted
the
reinvestments
Nuveen,
its
parent
and/or
other
affiliates
made
into
its
business
through,
among
other
things,
the
investment
of
seed
capital
in
certain
Nuveen
funds
and
continued
investments
in
enhancements
to
technological
capabilities.
In
addition
to
Nuveen,
the
Independent
Board
Members
considered
the
profitability
of
the
Sub-Adviser
from
its
relationships
with
the
respective
Nuveen
funds.
In
this
regard,
the
Independent
Board
Members
reviewed,
among
other
things,
the
Sub-Adviser’s
revenues,
expenses
and
net
revenue
margins
(pre-
and
after-tax)
for
its
advisory
activities
to
the
respective
Nuveen
funds
for
the
calendar
years
ended
December 31,
2022
and
December
31,
2021.
The
Independent
Board
Members
also
reviewed
a
profitability
analysis
reflecting
the
revenues,
expenses
and
revenue
margin
(pre-
and
after-tax)
by
asset
type
for
the
Sub-Adviser
for
the
calendar
years
ending
December 31,
2022
and
December
31,
2021.
In
evaluating
the
reasonableness
of
the
compensation,
the
Independent
Board
Members
also
considered
any
other
ancillary
benefits
derived
by
the
respective
Fund
Adviser
from
its
relationship
with
the
Nuveen
funds
as
discussed
in
further
detail
below.
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
The
Board
considered
whether
there
have
been
economies
of
scale
with
respect
to
the
management
of
the
Nuveen
funds,
whether
these
economies
of
scale
have
been
appropriately
shared
with
the
funds
and
whether
there
is
potential
for
realization
of
further
economies
of
scale.
Although
the
Board
recognized
that
economies
of
scale
are
difficult
to
measure
with
any
precision
and
certain
expenses
may
not
decline
with
a
rise
in
assets,
the
Board
considered
that
Nuveen
shares
the
benefits
of
economies
of
scale,
if
any,
in
a
number
of
ways
including
through
the
use
of
breakpoints
in
the
management
fee
schedule,
fee
waivers
and/or
expense
limitations,
the
pricing
of
funds
at
scale
at
inception
and
investments
in
Nuveen’s
business
which
can
enhance
the
services
provided
to
the
funds
for
the
fees
paid.
In
this
regard,
the
Board
recognized
that
the
management
fee
of
the
Adviser
is
generally
comprised
of
a
fund-level
component
and
a
complex-level
component
each
with
its
own
breakpoint
schedule,
subject
to
certain
exceptions.
The
Board
reviewed
the
fund-level
and
complex-level
fee
schedules.
With
this
structure,
the
Board
noted
that
the
complex-level
breakpoint
schedule
is
designed
to
deliver
the
benefits
of
economies
of
scale
to
shareholders
when
the
eligible
assets
in
the
complex
pass
certain
thresholds
even
if
the
assets
of
a
particular
fund
are
unchanged
or
have
declined,
and
the
fund-level
breakpoint
schedules
are
designed
to
share
86
Annual
Investment
Management
Agreement
Approval
Process
(Unaudited)
(continued)
economies
of
scale
with
shareholders
if
the
particular
fund
grows.
The
Board
noted,
however,
that
although
closed-end
funds
may
make
additional
share
offerings
from
time
to
time,
the
closed-end
funds
have
a
more
limited
ability
to
increase
their
assets
because
the
growth
of
their
assets
will
occur
primarily
from
the
appreciation
of
their
investment
portfolios.
As
noted
above,
the
Independent
Board
Members
also
recognized
the
continued
reinvestment
in
Nuveen’s
business
to
enhance
its
capabilities
and
services
to
the
benefit
of
its
various
clients.
The
Board
understood
that
many
of
these
investments
in
the
Nuveen
business
were
not
specific
to
individual
Nuveen
funds
but
rather
incurred
across
of
a
variety
of
products
and
services
pursuant
to
which
the
family
of
Nuveen
funds
as
a
whole
may
benefit.
In
addition,
the
Board
also
considered
that
Nuveen
has
provided,
without
raising
advisory
fees
to
the
Nuveen
funds,
certain
additional
services,
including,
but
not
limited
to,
services
required
by
new
regulations
and
regulatory
interpretations,
and
this
was
also
a
means
of
sharing
economies
of
scale
with
the
funds
and
their
shareholders.
Based
on
its
review,
the
Board
was
satisfied
that
the
current
fee
arrangements
together
with
the
reinvestment
in
Nuveen’s
business
appropriately
shared
any
economies
of
scale
with
shareholders.
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.
The
Board
acknowledged
that
an
affiliate
of
the
Adviser
may
receive
compensation
for
serving
as
a
co-manager
in
the
initial
public
offerings
of
new
Nuveen
closed-end
funds
(if
any)
and
for
serving
as
an
underwriter
on
shelf
offerings
of
existing
Nuveen
closed-end
funds
and
reviewed
the
amounts
paid
for
such
services,
if
any,
in
2021
and
2022.
In
addition,
the
Independent
Board
Members
noted
that
the
various
sub-advisers
to
the
Nuveen
funds
do
not
generally
benefit
from
soft
dollar
arrangements
with
respect
to
Nuveen
fund
portfolio
transactions.
Based
on
its
review,
the
Board
concluded
that
any
indirect
benefits
received
by
a
Fund
Adviser
as
a
result
of
its
relationship
with
the
Funds
were
reasonable
in
light
of
the
services
provided.
F.
Other
Considerations
The
Independent
Board
Members
did
not
identify
any
single
factor
discussed
previously
as
all-important
or
controlling.
The
Independent
Board
Members
concluded
that
the
terms
of
each
Advisory
Agreement
were
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
for
an
additional
one-year
period.
