2 Utah’s reciprocity provision maintains that it will not tax income from bonds issued by states that do not tax income on Utah bonds. Nuveen can manage a state specific or state preference portfolio for a Utah resident that considers this reciprocity provision and invests in Utah bonds and/or bonds from states/territories that do not tax income on Utah bonds.
3 State portfolios are available for municipals only. Municipal state specific portfolios hold only bonds from the client’s state of residence or U.S. territories (Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands and
Guam). Municipal state preference portfolios hold bonds from the client’s state of residence or U.S.
territories, which together will account for a minimum of 50% of the portfolio. Out- of-state bonds may total up to 50% of the portfolio. Nuveen seeks to purchase out-of-state bonds at an after-state-tax
yield that is equivalent to or greater than a comparable in-state bond. Prospective clients and their
financial professionals should consider that a state preference portfolio may provide a higher yield, better diversification, and a shorter invest-up period than a state specific portfolio. The national preference portfolio is a national portfolio with a secondary preference to the client’s state of residence according to supply, relative value and strategic guidelines. The secondary preference will be filled opportunistically over time, if at all. We cannot guarantee the inclusion of any state of residence bonds.
A separately managed account (SMA) is a private portfolio of actively managed, individual securities that may be customized to achieve an individual investor's unique objectives.
Important information on risk
All investments carry a certain degree of risk, including possible loss of principal, and there is no assurance that an investment will provide positive performance over any period of time. An investment in any municipal portfolio should be made with an understanding of the risks of investing in municipal bonds, such as interest rate risk, credit risk, and market risk. The value of the portfolio will fluctuate based on the value of the underlying securities. Please contact a tax professional regarding the appropriateness of tax-exempt investments in your portfolio. Nuveen is not a tax professional. In addition, the callability of bonds may increase interest rate risk exposure in the laddered portfolios. Upon call, a client may be confronted with a less favorable interest rate environment than the one that existed when the original bond was purchased.
If sold prior to maturity, municipal securities are subject to gain/losses based on the level of interest rates, market conditions and the credit quality of the issuer. Income may be subject to the alternative minimum tax (AMT) and/or state and local taxes, based on the state of residence. Income from municipal bonds held by a portfolio could be declared taxable because of unfavorable changes in tax laws, adverse interpretations by the Internal Revenue Service or state tax authorities, or noncompliant conduct of a bond issuer. Some income may be subject to state and local taxes and to the federal alternative minimum tax. Capital gains, if any, are subject to tax.
