Fund Description
The following is hereby added after the final paragraph of the “Principal investment strategies” section beginning on page 92 of the Statutory Prospectus in the “Summary information” section for the Nuveen Short Duration and Impact Bond Fund:
The Fund may also seek exposure to Regulation S fixed-income securities through investment in a Cayman Islands exempted company that is wholly owned and controlled by the Fund (the “Regulation S Subsidiary”). A Cayman Islands exempted company is a corporate entity established under the laws of the Cayman Islands for the purpose of conducting business mainly outside the Cayman Islands. Regulation S fixed-income securities are debt securities of U.S. and non-U.S. issuers that are issued through private placement offerings without registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933. These may include sovereign or quasi-sovereign bonds, corporate bonds and structured notes issued pursuant to Regulation S. The Regulation S Subsidiary is advised by Nuveen Asset Management, LLC (“Nuveen Asset Management”) and has the same investment objective as the Fund, except that the Regulation S Subsidiary may invest without limitation in Regulation S securities.
The Fund may also seek exposure to certain bonds or fixed-income securities that are sold subject to selling restrictions under the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982 (“TEFRA”), which generally restricts the purchase of such bonds to non-U.S. persons (as defined for applicable U.S. federal income tax purposes) (“TEFRA Bonds”) through investment of up to 25% of its total assets in a separate Cayman Islands exempted company that is wholly owned and controlled by the Fund (the “TEFRA Bond Subsidiary”). These may include
sovereign or quasi-sovereign bonds, corporate bonds and structured notes issued pursuant to TEFRA. The TEFRA Bond Subsidiary is advised by Nuveen Asset Management and has the same investment objective as the Fund, except that the TEFRA Bond Subsidiary may invest without limitation in TEFRA Bonds.
