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 shares of other Nuveen mutual funds and ETFs to build a diversified portfolio of domestic and foreign equities, fixed-income securities, and direct real estate. Its asset allocation automatically shifts from more aggressive to more conservative as its target retirement year of 2055 approaches and for approximately 30 years thereafter, eventually reaching a final allocation of 20% equity, 80% fixed-income, and 0% real estate by 2085. The fund maintains significant equity exposure through and beyond its target retirement date, which could cause substantial fluctuations in value depending on equity market performance. Actual allocations may vary up to ten percentage points from stated targets.

Return profile
Total return as filed — price change plus distributions reinvested · trailing figures to Apr 2026
| Share class | 1-year | 3-year | 5-year | Vol | Worst fall |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| +25.97% | +58.01% | +48.20% | 12.19% | -8.91% | |

| +26.14% | +58.93% | +49.68% | 12.18% | -8.92% |
These classes hold the same portfolio, so the 1.83pp spread over 5 years is the cost difference between them — roughly 0.37pp a year — not a difference in what they own.
May 2026 has been filed since the trailing figures were struck, so it is not in the table above or the curve — every figure here shares one cut-off, which is what makes them comparable with other funds.
