Fund profile
As filed in the prospectus · 2025 Q3
The Fund seeks high total return over time through a combination of capital appreciation and income.
The fund is a fund of funds that invests in Class W shares of other Nuveen mutual funds and ETFs to track market indices across U.S. equities, international equities, and fixed-income sectors. Its asset allocation automatically shifts from more aggressive to more conservative as its 2045 target retirement date approaches and for approximately 30 years thereafter, ultimately reaching a final allocation of 20% equities and 80% fixed-income by 2075. The fund maintains at least 80% of assets in index-tracking underlying funds. Actual allocations may vary up to ten percentage points from stated targets within each asset class and market sector.
