Changes
in
Independent
Registered
Public
Accounting
Firm
(a)
Previous
independent
registered
public
accounting
firm:
On
October
24,
2024,
the
Fund’s
Board
of
Trustees
(the
“Board”),
upon
recommendation
from
the
Audit
Committee,
dismissed
KPMG
LLP
(“KPMG”)
as
the
independent
registered
public
accounting
firm
for
the
Fund.
KPMG’s
audit
reports
on
the
Fund’s
financial
statements
as
of
and
for
the
fiscal
years
ended
June
30,
2024
and
June
30,
2023
contained
no
adverse
opinion
or
disclaimer
of
opinion
nor
were
they
qualified
or
modified
as
to
uncertainty,
audit
scope
or
accounting
principles.
During
the
Fund’s
fiscal
years
ended
June
30,
2024
and
June
30,
2023,
and
for
the
period
July
1,
2024
through
October
24,
2024,
there
were
no
disagreements
with
KPMG
on
any
matter
of
accounting
principles
or
practices,
financial
statement
disclosure
or
auditing
scope
or
procedures,
which
disagreements
if
not
resolved
to
the
satisfaction
of
KPMG
would
have
caused
them
to
make
reference
in
connection
with
their
opinion
to
the
subject
matter
of
the
disagreement.
During
the
Fund’s
fiscal
years
ended
June
30,
2024
and
June
30,
2023
and
for
the
period
July
1,
2024
through
October
24,
2024,
there
were
no
reportable
events
(as
defined
in
Regulation
S-K
Item
304(a)(1)(v)).
The
Fund
provided
KPMG
with
a
copy
of
the
foregoing
disclosures
and
requested
that
KPMG
furnish
the
Fund
with
a
letter
addressed
to
the
U.S.
Securities
and
Exchange
Commission
stating
whether
KPMG
agrees
with
the
above
statements.
(b)
New
independent
registered
public
accounting
firm:
On
October
24,
2024,
the
Board,
upon
recommendation
from
the
Audit
Committee,
engaged
PricewaterhouseCoopers
LLP
(“PwC”)
as
the
new
independent
registered
public
accounting
firm
for
the
Fund.
During
the
Fund’s
fiscal
years
ended
June
30,
2024
and
June
30,
2023
and
for
the
period
July
1,
2024
through
October
24,
2024,
the
Fund
has
not
consulted
with
PwC
regarding
any
of
the
matters
described
in
Regulation
S-K
Item
304
(“S-K
304”),
S-K
304(a)(2)(i)
or
S-K
304(a)(2)(ii)
disclosure.
DISTRIBUTION
INFORMATION
The
following
information
regarding
the
Fund’s
distributions
is
current
as
of
December
31,
2024,
the
Fund’s
fiscal
and
tax
year
end,
and
may
differ
from
previously
issued
distribution
notifications.
The
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
each
year
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
may
erode.
For
additional
information,
refer
to
the
distribution
information
section
below
and
in
the
Notes
to
Financial
Statements
herein.
The
following
table
provides
the
estimated
sources
of
distributions
and
may
include
amounts
attributed
to
realized
gains
and/or
returns
of
capital.
A
return
of
capital
may
occur,
for
example,
when
some
or
all
of
the
money
that
you
invested
in
a
Fund
is
paid
back
to
you.
A
return
of
capital
distribution
does
not
necessarily
reflect
a
Fund’s
investment
performance
and
should
not
be
confused
with
“yield”
or
“income.”
The
Fund
attributes
these
estimates
equally
to
each
regular
distribution
throughout
the
year.
The
amounts
and
sources
of
distributions
reported
in
this
notice
are
for
financial
reporting
purposes
and
are
not
being
provided
for
tax
reporting
purposes.
The
actual
amounts
and
character
of
the
distributions
for
tax
reporting
purposes
will
be
reported
to
shareholders
on
Form
1099-DIV,
which
will
be
sent
to
shareholders
shortly
after
calendar
year-end.
Because
distribution
source
estimates
are
updated
throughout
the
current
fiscal
year
based
on
a
Fund’s
performance,
those
estimates
may
differ
from
both
the
tax
information
reported
to
you
in
your
Fund’s
1099
statement,
as
well
as
the
ultimate
economic
sources
of
distributions
over
the
life
of
your
investment.
The
figures
in
the
table
below
provide
the
sources
of
distributions
and
may
include
amounts
attributed
to
realized
gains
and/or
returns
of
capital.

details
about
the
Fund’s
distributions

Impact
of
Leverage
One
important
factor
impacting
the
returns
of
the
Fund’s
common
shares
relative
to
its
comparative
benchmark
was
the
Fund’s
use
of
leverage
through
reverse
repurchase
agreements.
The
Fund
uses
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
securities
that
it
has
bought
with
the
proceeds
of
that
leverage.
However,
use
of
leverage
can
expose
Fund
common
shares
to
additional
price
volatility.
When
the
Fund
uses
leverage,
the
Fund’s
common
shares
will
experience
a
greater
increase
in
their
net
asset
value
if
the
securities
acquired
through
the
use
of
leverage
increase
in
value,
but
will
also
experience
a
correspondingly
larger
decline
in
their
net
asset
value
if
the
securities
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
interest
rates.
While
fund
leverage
expenses
are
higher
than
their
prior
year
lows,
leverage
nevertheless
continues
to
provide
the
opportunity
for
incremental
common
share
income,
particularly
over
longer-
term
periods.
Leverage
Ratios
“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.
“Regulatory
Leverage”
consists
of
preferred
shares
or
borrowings
of
a
Fund.
Regulatory
Leverage
is
a
part
of
a
Fund’s
capital
structure.
Regulatory
leverage
is
subject
to
asset
coverage
limits
set
forth
in
the
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940.
A
Fund,
however,
may
from
time
to
time
borrow
for
temporary
purposes,
typically
on
a
transient
basis
in
connection
with
its
day-to-day
operations,
primarily
in
connection
with
the
need
to
settle
portfolio
trades.
Such
temporary
borrowings
are
excluded
from
the
calculation
of
a
Fund’s
Effective
Leverage
and
Regulatory
Leverage
ratios.

may
often
be

Developments
Regarding
the
Fund's
Control
Share
By-Law:
On
October
5,
2020,
the
Fund
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
Fund's
Board
of
Trustees
(the
"Board")
amended
the
Fund’s
bylaws
to
provide
that
the
Fund's
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
Fund
appealed
the
District
Court’s
decision
to
the
U.S.
Court
of
Appeals
for
the
Second
Circuit.
On
November
30,
2023,
the
U.S.
Court
of
Appeals
for
the
Second
Circuit
upheld
the
opinion
of
the
District
Court.
On
February
28,
2024,
the
Board
of
the
Funds
Amended
and
Restated
By-Laws
to
eliminate
the
“control
share”
provisions.

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.
The
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
net
asset
value
(“NAV”)
for
financial
reporting
purposes
may
differ
from
the
NAV
for
processing
security
and common
share 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
Fund.
Compensation:
The Fund
pays
no compensation
directly
to
those
of its
officers,
all
of
whom
receive
remuneration
for
their
services
to the Fund
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.
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.
The
Fund's
distribution
policy,
which
may
be
changed
by
the
Board,
is
to
make
regular
monthly
cash
distributions
to
holders
of
their
common
shares
(stated
in
terms
of
a
fixed
cents
per
common
share
dividend
distributions
rate
which
may
be
set
from
time
to
time).
The
Fund
intends
to
distribute
all
or
substantially
all
of
its
net
investment
income
each
year
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
may
erode.
Indemnifications:
Under
the
Fund’s
organizational
documents,
its
officers
and
trustees
are
indemnified
against
certain
liabilities
arising
out
of
the
performance
of
their
duties
to
the
Fund.
In
addition,
in
the
normal
course
of
business,
the Fund
enters
into
contracts
that
provide
general
indemnifications
to
other
parties.
The
Fund’s
maximum
exposure
under
these
arrangements
is
unknown
as
this
would
involve
future
claims
that
may
be
made
against
the Fund
that
have
not
yet
occurred.
However,
the Fund
has
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.
Dividend
income
is
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date
or,
for
foreign
securities,
when
information
is
available.
Non-cash
dividends
received
in
the
form
of
stock,
if
any,
are
recognized
on
the
ex-dividend
date
and
recorded
at
fair
value.
Interest
income,
which
reflects
the
amortization
of
premiums
and
includes
accretion
of
discounts
for
financial
reporting
purposes,
is
recorded
on
an
accrual
basis.
Interest
income
also
reflects
payment-in-kind
(“PIK”)
interest,
fees
earned
from
reverse
repurchase
agreements
and
paydown
gains
and
losses,
if
any.
PIK
interest
represents
income
received
in
the
form
of
securities
in
lieu
of
cash.
Fees
earned
from
reverse
repurchase
agreements
are
further
described
in
later
in
these
Notes
to
Financial
Statements.
Netting
Agreements:
In
the
ordinary
course
of
business,
the
Fund
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 the
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,
the
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
Fund
is
held
in
a
segregated
account
by
the
Fund's
custodian
and/or
with
respect
to
those
amounts
which
can
be
sold
or
repledged,
are
presented
in
the
Fund's
Portfolio
of
Investments
or
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
The
Fund’s
investments
subject
to
netting
agreements
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period,
if
any,
are
further
described
later
in
these
Notes
to
Financial
Statements.
Segment
Reporting:
In
November
2023,
the
FASB
issued
Accounting
Standard
Update
(“ASU”)
No.
2023-07,
Segment
Reporting
(Topic
280)
Improvements
to
Reportable
Segment
Disclosures
(“ASU
2023-07”).
The
amendments
in
ASU
2023-07
improve
reportable
segment
disclosure
requirements,
primarily
through
enhanced
disclosures
about
significant
segment
expenses.
ASU
2023-07
also
requires
a
public
entity
that
has
a
single
reportable
segment
to
provide
all
the
disclosures
required
by
the
amendments
in
ASU
2023-07
and
all
existing
segment
disclosures
in
Topic
280.
The
amendments
in
ASU
2023-07
are
effective
for
fiscal
years
beginning
after
December
15,
2023,
and
interim
periods
within
fiscal
years
beginning
after
December
15,
2024.
The
Fund
adopted
ASU
2023-07
during
the
current
reporting
period.
Adoption
of
the
new
standard
impacted
financial
statement
disclosures
only
and
did
not
affect
the
Fund's
financial
positions
or
the
results
of
their
operations.
The
officers
of
the
Fund
act
as
the
chief
operating
decision
maker
(“CODM”). The
Fund
represents
a
single
operating
segment.
The
CODM
monitors
the
operating
results
of the
Fund
as
a
whole
and
is
responsible
for
the Fund’s
long-term
strategic
asset
allocation
in
accordance
with
the
terms
of
its
prospectus,
based
on
a
defined
investment
strategy
which
is
executed
by
the
Fund’s
portfolio
managers
as
a
team.
The
financial
information
in
the
form
of
the
Fund’s
portfolio
composition,
total
returns,
expense
ratios
and
changes
in
net
assets
(i.e.,
changes
in
net
assets
resulting
from
operations,
subscriptions
and
redemptions),
which
are
used
by
the
CODM
to
assess
the
segment’s
performance
versus
the
Fund’s
comparative
benchmarks
and
to
make
resource
allocation
decisions
for
the
Fund’s
single
segment,
is
consistent
with
that
presented
within
the
Fund’s
financial
statements.
Segment
assets
are
reflected
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities
as
“total
assets”
and
significant
segment
revenues
and
expenses
are
listed
on
the
Statement
of
Operations.
3.
Investment
Valuation
and
Fair
Value
Measurements
The
Fund's
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
Fund's
major
classifications
of
assets
and
liabilities
measured
at
fair
value
follows:
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,
Notes
to
Financial
Statements
(continued)
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.
Repurchase
agreements
are
valued
at
contract
amount
plus
accrued
interest,
which
approximates
market
value.
These
securities
are
generally
classified
as
Level
2.
Futures
contracts
are
valued
using
the
closing
settlement
price
or,
in
the
absence
of
such
a
price,
the
last
traded
price
and
are
generally
classified
as
Level
1.
Swap
contracts
are
marked-to-market
daily
based
upon
a
price
supplied
by
a
pricing
service.
Swaps
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
Fund's
investments
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period,
based
on
the
inputs
used
to
value
them:
4.
Portfolio
Securities
Repurchase
Agreements:
In
connection
with
transactions
in
repurchase
agreements,
it
is the
Fund's
policy
that
its
custodian
take
possession
of
the
underlying
collateral
securities,
the
fair
value
of
which
exceeds
the
principal
amount
of
the
repurchase
transaction,
including
accrued
interest,
at
all
times.
If
the
counterparty
defaults,
and
the
fair
value
of
the
collateral
declines,
realization
of
the
collateral
may
be
delayed
or
limited.
The
following
table
presents
the
repurchase
agreements
for
the
Fund
that
are
subject
to
netting
agreements
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period,
and
the
collateral
delivered
related
to
those
repurchase
agreements.
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

Long-term
purchases
and

during
the
current
fiscal
period
were
as
follows:
The
Fund
may
purchase
securities
on
a
when-issued
or
delayed-delivery
basis.
Securities
purchased
on
a

basis
may
have
extended

periods;
interest
income
is
not
accrued
until
settlement
date.
Any
securities
so
purchased
are
subject
to
market
fluctuation
during
this
period.
If the
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
The 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.
Futures
Contracts:
During
the
current
fiscal
period,
the
Fund
used
U.S.
Treasury
futures
as
part
of
an
overall
portfolio
construction
strategy
to
manage
portfolio
duration
and
yield
curve
exposure.
A
futures
contract
is
an
agreement
between
two
parties
to
buy
and
sell
a
financial
instrument
for
a
set
price
on
a
future
date.
Upon
execution
of
a
futures
contract,
the
Fund
is
obligated
to
deposit
cash
or
eligible
securities,
also
known
as
“initial
margin,”
into
an
account
at
its
clearing
broker
equal
to
a
specified
percentage
of
the
contract
amount.
Securities
deposited
for
initial
margin,
if
any,
are
identified
in
the
Portfolio
of
Investments
and
cash
deposited
for
initial
margin,
if
any,
is
reflected
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
During
the
period
the
futures
contract
is
open,
changes
in
the
market
value
of
the
contract
are
recognized
as
an
unrealized
gain
or
loss
by
“marking-
to-market”
on
a
daily
basis.
The
Fund
and
the
clearing
broker
are
obligated
to
settle
monies
on
a
daily
basis
representing
the
changes
in
the
value
of
the
contracts.
These
daily
cash
settlements
are
known
as
“variation
margin”
and
is
recognized
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities
as
a
receivable
or
payable
for
variation
margin
on
futures
contracts.
When
the
contract
is
closed
or
expired,
the
Fund
records
a
realized
gain
or
loss
equal
to
the
difference
between
the
value
of
the
contract
on
the
closing
date
and
value
of
the
contract
when
originally
entered
into.
The
net
realized
gain
or
loss
and
the
change
in
unrealized
appreciation
(depreciation)
on
futures
contracts
held
during
the
period
is
included
on
the
Statement
of
Operations.
Risks
of
investments
in
futures
contracts
include
the
possible
adverse
movement
in
the
price
of
the
securities
or
indices
underlying
the
contracts,
the
possibility
that
there
may
not
be
a
liquid
secondary
market
for
the
contracts
and/or
that
a
change
in
the
value
of
the
contract
may
not
correlate
with
a
change
in
the
value
of
the
underlying
securities
or
indices.
The
average
notional
amount
of
futures
contracts
outstanding
during
the
current
fiscal
period
was
as
follows:
Interest
Rate
Swap
Contracts:
During
the
current
fiscal
period,
the
Fund
used
interest
rate
swap
contracts
to
partially
hedge
its
interest
cost
of
leverage.
Interest
rate
swap
contracts
involve
the
Fund’s
agreement
with
the
counterparty
to
pay
or
receive
a
fixed
rate
payment
in
exchange
for
the
counterparty
receiving
or
paying
a
variable
rate
payment.
Forward
interest
rate
swap
contracts
involve
the
Fund’s
agreement
with
a
counterparty
to
pay,
in
the
future,
a
fixed
or
variable
rate
payment
in
exchange
for
the
counterparty
paying
the
Fund
a
variable
or
fixed
rate
payment,
the
accruals
for
which
would
begin
at
a
specified
date
in
the
future
(the
“effective
date”).
Upon
entering
into
an
interest
rate
swap
contract
(and
beginning
on
the
effective
date
for
a
forward
interest
rate
swap
contract),
the
Fund
accrues
the
fixed
rate
payment
expected
to
be
paid
or
received
and
the
variable
rate
payment
expected
to
be
received
or
paid
on
the
interest
rate
swap
contracts
on
a
daily
basis,
and
recognizes
the
daily
change
in
the
fair
value
of
the
Fund’s
contractual
rights
and
obligations
under
the
contracts.
The
amount
of
the
payment
obligation
for
an
interest
rate
swap
is
based
on
the
notional
amount
and
the
termination
date
of
the
contract.
Interest
rate
swap
contracts
do
not
involve
the
delivery
of
securities
or
other
underlying
assets
or
principal.
Accordingly,
the
risk
of
loss
on
such
transactions
is
limited
to
the
net
amount
of
interest
payments
that
the
Fund
is
to
receive
from
the
counterparty.
Payments
paid
(received)
at
the
beginning
of
the
measurement
period
are
reflected
as
swap
premiums
paid
(received)
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities,
when
applicable.
Interest
rate
swaps
can
be
settled
either
directly
with
the
counterparty
(“OTC”)
or
through
a
central
clearinghouse
(“centrally
cleared”).
For
OTC
swaps,
the
daily
change
in
the
market
value
of
the
swap
contract,
along
with
any
daily
interest
fees
accrued,
are
recognized
as
unrealized
appreciation
(depreciation)
on
interest
rate
swaps
contracts on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.

Notes

Financial
Statements
(continued)
Upon
the
execution
of
a
centrally
cleared
swap,
a
Fund
is
obligated
to
deposit
cash
or
eligible
securities,
also
known
as
“initial
margin,”
into
an
account
at
its
clearing
broker
equal
to
a
specified
percentage
of
the
contract
amount.
Securities
deposited
for
initial
margin,
if
any,
are
identified
in
the
Portfolio
of
Investments and
cash
deposited
for
initial
margin,
if
any,
is
reflected
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
The
Fund
and
the
clearing
broker
are
obligated
to
settle
monies
on
a
daily
basis
representing
the
changes
in
the
value
of
the
swap
contracts.
These
daily
cash
settlements
are
known
as
“variation
margin”
and
is
recognized
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities
as
a
receivable
or
payable
for
variation
margin
on
interest
rate
swaps
contracts.
Changes
in
the
value
of
the
swap
contracts
during
the
fiscal
period
are
recognized
as
net
unrealized
appreciation
(depreciation)
of
swaps
contracts on
the
Statement
of
Operations.
The
net
amount
of
periodic
payments
settled
in
cash
are
recognized
as
net
realized
gain
(loss)
from
swap
contracts on
the
Statement
of
Operations,
in
addition
to
the
net
realized
gain
or
loss
recorded
upon
the
termination
of
the
swap
contract.
The
average
notional
amount of
interest
rate
swap
contracts
outstanding during
the
current
fiscal
period,
was
as
follows:
The
following
table
presents
the

subject
to
netting
agreements
and
the
collateral
delivered
related
to
those
swap
contracts
as
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period.
At
the
end
of
the
reporting
period,
the
fund
has
invested
in
derivative
contracts
which
are
reflected
in
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities
as
follows:
During
the
current
fiscal
period,
the
effect
of
derivative
contracts
on
the
Fund's
Statement
of
Operations
was
as
follows:
Market
and
Counterparty
Credit
Risk:
In
the
normal
course
of
business
the
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 the
Fund
to
counterparty
credit
risk,
consist
principally
of
cash
due
from
counterparties
on
forward,
option
and
swap
transactions,
when
applicable.
The
extent
of
the
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.
The 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 the
Fund
with
a
value
approximately
equal
to
the
amount
of
any
unrealized
gain
above
a
pre-determined
threshold.

Income
Tax
Information
The
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.
The
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 the
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
purposes
of
this
disclosure,
tax
cost
generally
includes
the
cost
of
portfolio
investments
as
well
as
up-front
fees
or
premiums
exchanged
on
derivatives
and
any
amounts
unrealized
for
income
statement
reporting
but

income
and/or
capital
gains
for
tax
reporting,
if
applicable.
As
of
prior

period
end,
the
components
of
accumulated
earnings
on
a

basis
were
as

Management
Fees
and
Other
Transactions
with
Affiliates
Management
Fees:
The Fund’s
management
fee
compensates
the
Adviser
for
the
overall
investment
advisory
and
administrative
services
and
general
office
facilities.
The
Sub-Adviser
is
compensated
for
its
services
to
the
Fund
from
the
management
fees
paid
to
the
Adviser.
The Fund’s
management
fee
consists
of
two
components
–
a
fund-level
fee,
based
only
on
the
amount
of
assets
within the
Fund,
and
a
complex-
level
fee,
based
on
the
aggregate
amount
of
all
eligible
fund
assets
managed
by
the
Adviser.
This
pricing
structure
enables the
Fund’s
shareholders
to
benefit
from
growth
in
the
assets
within
the
Fund
as
well
as
from
growth
in
the
amount
of
complex-wide
assets
managed
by
the
Adviser.
The
annual
fund-level
fee,
payable
monthly, is
calculated

The
annual
complex-level
fee,
payable
monthly,
is
calculated
according
to
the
following
schedule:
*
The
complex-level
fee
is
calculated
based
upon
the
aggregate
daily
“eligible
assets”
of
all
Nuveen-branded
closed-end
funds
and
Nuveen
branded
open-end
funds
(“Nuveen
Mutual
Funds”).
Except
as
described
below,
eligible
assets
include
the
assets
of
all
Nuveen-branded
closed-end
funds
and
Nuveen
Mutual
Funds
organized
in
the
United
States.
Eligible
assets
do
not
include
the
net
assets
of:
Nuveen
fund-of-funds,
Nuveen
money
market
funds,
Nuveen
index
funds,
Nuveen
Large
Cap
Responsible
Equity
Fund
or
Nuveen
Life
Large
Cap
Responsible
Equity
Fund.
In
addition,
eligible
assets
include
a
fixed
percentage
of
the
aggregate
net
assets
of
the
active
equity
and
fixed
income
Nuveen
Mutual
Funds
advised
by
the
Adviser’s
affiliate,
Teachers
Advisors,
LLC
(except
those
identified
above).
The
fixed
percentage
will
increase
annually
until
May
1,
2033,
at
which
time
eligible
assets
will
include
all
of
the
aggregate
net
assets
of
the
active
equity
and
fixed
income
Nuveen
Mutual
Funds
advised
by
Teachers
Advisors,
LLC
(except
those
identified
above).
Eligible
assets
include
closed-end
fund
assets
managed
by
the
Adviser
that
are
attributable
to
financial
leverage.
For
these
purposes,
financial
leverage
includes
the
closed-end
funds’
use
of
preferred
stock
and
borrowings
and
certain
investments
in
the
residual
interest
certificates
(also
called
inverse
floating
rate
securities)
in
tender
option
bond
(TOB)
trusts,
including
the
portion
of
assets
held
by
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
eligible
assets
in
certain
circumstances.
9.
Fund
Leverage
Reverse
Repurchase
Agreements:
During
the
current
fiscal
period, the
fund utilized
reverse
repurchase
agreements
as
a
means
of
leverage.
The Fund
may
enter
into
a
reverse
repurchase
agreement
with
brokers,
dealers,
banks
or
other
financial
institutions
that
have
been
determined
by
the
Adviser
to
be
creditworthy.
In
a
reverse
repurchase
agreement,
the
Fund
sells
to
the
counterparty
a
security
that
it
holds
with
a
contemporaneous
agreement
to
repurchase
the
same
security
at
an
agreed-upon
price
and
date,
reflecting
the
interest
rate
effective
for
the
term
of
the
agreement.
It
may
also
be
viewed
as
the
borrowing
of
money
by
the
Fund.
Cash
received
in
exchange
for
securities
delivered,
plus
accrued
interest
payments
to
be
made
by
the
Fund
to
a
counterparty,
are
reflected
as
a
liability
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
Interest
payments
made
by
the
Fund
to
counterparties
are
recognized
as
a
component
of
"Interest
expense" on
the
Statement
of
Operations.
In
a
reverse
repurchase
agreement,
the
Fund
retains
the
risk
of
loss
associated
with
the
sold
security. Reverse
repurchase
agreements
also
involve
the
risk
that
the
purchaser
fails
to
return
the
securities
as
agreed
upon,
files
for
bankruptcy
or
becomes
insolvent.
Upon
a
bankruptcy
or
insolvency
of
a
counterparty,
the
Fund
is
considered
to
be
an
unsecured
creditor
with
respect
to
excess
collateral
and
as
such
the
return
of
excess
collateral
may
be
delayed.
As
of
the
end
of
the
reporting
period,
the
Fund’s
outstanding
balances
on
its
reverse
repurchase
agreements
were
as
follows:
During
the
current
fiscal
period,
the
average
daily
balance
outstanding
(which
was

Borrowing
Arrangements
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
Fund
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,
the
Fund
did
not
enter
into
any
inter-fund
loan
activity.

Glossary
of
Terms
Used
in
this
Report
(U
naudited)
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.
Beta:
A
measure
of
the
variability
of
the
change
in
the
share
price
for
a
fund
in
relation
to
a
change
in
the
value
of
the
fund’s
market
benchmark.
Securities
with
betas
higher
than
1.0
have
been,
and
are
expected
to
be,
more
volatile
than
the
benchmark;
securities
with
betas
lower
than
1.0
have
been,
and
are
expected
to
be,
less
volatile
than
the
benchmark.
Contingent
Capital
Securities
(CoCos):
CoCos
are
debt
or
capital
securities
of
primarily
non-U.S.
issuers
with
loss
absorption
contingency
mechanisms
built
into
the
terms
of
the
security,
for
example
a
mandatory
conversion
into
common
stock
of
the
issuer,
or
a
principal
write-down,
which
if
triggered
would
likely
cause
the
CoCo
investment
to
lose
value.
Loss
absorption
mechanisms
would
become
effective
upon
the
occurrence
of
a
specified
contingency
event,
or
at
the
discretion
of
a
regulatory
body.
Specified
contingency
events,
as
identified
in
the
CoCo’s
governing
documents,
usually
reference
a
decline
in
the
issuer’s
capital
below
a
specified
threshold
level,
and/or
certain
regulatory
events.
A
loss
absorption
contingency
event
for
CoCos
would
likely
be
the
result
of,
or
related
to,
the
deterioration
of
the
issuer’s
financial
condition
and/or
its
status
as
a
going
concern.
In
such
a
case,
with
respect
to
CoCos
that
provide
for
conversion
into
common
stock
upon
the
occurrence
of
the
contingency
event,
the
market
price
of
the
issuer’s
common
stock
received
by
the
Acquiring
Fund
will
have
likely
declined,
perhaps
substantially,
and
may
continue
to
decline
after
conversion.
CoCos
rated
below
investment
grade
should
be
considered
high
yield
securities,
or
“junk,”
but
often
are
issued
by
entities
whose
more
senior
securities
are
rated
investment
grade.
CoCos
are
a
relatively
new
type
of
security;
and
there
is
a
risk
that
CoCo
security
issuers
may
suffer
the
sort
of
future
financial
distress
that
could
materially
increase
the
likelihood
(or
the
market’s
perception
of
the
likelihood)
that
an
automatic
write-down
or
conversion
event
on
those
issuers’
CoCos
will
occur.
Additionally,
the
trading
behavior
of
a
given
issuer’s
CoCo
may
be
strongly
impacted
by
the
trading
behavior
of
other
issuers’
CoCos,
such
that
negative
information
from
an
unrelated
CoCo
security
may
cause
a
decline
in
value
of
one
or
more
CoCos
held
by
the
Fund.
Accordingly,
the
trading
behavior
of
CoCos
may
not
follow
the
trading
behavior
of
other
types
of
debt
and
preferred
securities.
Despite
these
concerns,
the
prospective
reward
vs.
risk
characteristics
of
at
least
certain
CoCos
may
be
very
attractive
relative
to
other
fixed-income
alternatives.
Duration:
Duration
is
a
measure
of
the
expected
period
over
which
a
bond’s
principal
and
interest
will
be
paid,
and
consequently
is
a
measure
of
the
sensitivity
of
a
bond’s
or
bond
fund’s
value
to
changes
when
market
interest
rates
change.
Generally,
the
longer
a
bond’s
or
fund’s
duration,
the
more
the
price
of
the
bond
or
fund
will
change
as
interest
rates
change.
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
a
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.
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.
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.

Exhibit 19(a)(3)
CERTIFICATION
I, David J. Lamb,
certify that:
1. |
I have reviewed this report on Form N-CSR of Nuveen Multi-Market Income
Fund; |
2. |

3. |
Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial information included in this report,
fairly present in all material respects the financial condition, results of operations, changes in net assets, and cash flows (if the financial statements are required to include a statement of cash flows) of the registrant as of, and for, the
periods presented in this report; |
4. |
The registrants other certifying officer(s) and I are responsible for establishing and maintaining

30a-3(d) under the Investment Company Act of 1940) for the registrant and have: |
|
(a) |
Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such disclosure controls and procedures to be

being prepared; |
|
(b) |
Designed such internal control over financial reporting, or caused such internal control over financial

Evaluated the effectiveness of the registrants disclosure controls and procedures and presented in this

|

Disclosed in this report any change in the registrants internal control over financial reporting that
occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrants internal control over financial reporting; and |
5. |
The registrants other certifying officer(s) and I have disclosed to the registrants auditors and
the audit committee of the registrants board of directors (or persons performing the equivalent functions): |
|
(a) |
All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal control over
financial reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect the registrants ability to record, process, summarize, and report financial information; and |
