Impact Bonds
Nuveen’s global fixed income ESG/impact platform embeds responsible investing standards into actively managed fixed income to help address many of the large-scale, systemic challenges the world faces today.

Municipals
We deliver investment leadership through a 125-year heritage of municipal bond investing, specialized credit research and capabilities spanning investment grade and high yield.

Nuveen has one of the industry’s largest credit research teams dedicated to municipal investing. On behalf of our clients, we support the financing of essential municipal bond projects. Taxable municipal bonds have attracted attention from global institutional investors who want to invest in high-quality bonds that can provide attractive yield and portfolio diversification, while contributing to the growth of essential infrastructure.

Leveraged Finance
Nuveen’s $40B leveraged finance platform is one of the industry’s largest and robust providers of high yield credit, broadly syndicated loans, CLOs and alternative credit strategies4.

Our 40+ investment professionals provide enhanced access to an asset class where scale, research depth and a focus on active management are critical to enhancing results.

Emerging Markets
Nuveen’s dedicated EMD team launched in 1997 and today, we are one of the largest managers of emerging markets debt5 and manage $10 billion in assets under management.6

We believe emerging markets debt is an inefficient asset class. Therefore, a disciplined investment process focused on downside risk management that efficiently allocates active risk can deliver long-term outperformance through consistent, diversified sources of alpha.
