Responsible Investing
An enduring impact
Responsible investing at Nuveen - 2023
We believe Nuveen is uniquely positioned to make an enduring impact on our planet and better manage environmental, social and governance risks through our multifaceted perspective and extensive responsible investing experience.
Our parent TIAA’s legacy of responsible investing (RI) spans across half a century. It provides us with a strong foundation by which we continue to build out our environmental, social and governance (ESG) integration principles, stewardship practices and impact frameworks across our $1.1 trillion in assets under management.1
We believe diligent integration of ESG factors contributes to long-term performance, assists risk management and uncovers opportunity for investors. The Nuveen RI team has developed a range of metrics and tools including proprietary data analytics and models to enhance the investment process, ensuring a robust and informed approach. As a result of our team’s efforts, Nuveen is on the cutting edge of responsible investing research and outcome measurement.
RI is more than a philosophy; rather, it is an essential part of our history and our future. Our RI pillars of ESG integration, stewardship and impact, are critical to unlocking investment potential and generating positive impact. We believe these pillars can provide long-term investment benefits for our clients, communities and the planet.
We invite you to engage in conversations with us on all aspects of responsible investing.

Risks and other important considerations
ESG integration is the consideration of financially material ESG factors in support of portfolio management for actively managed strategies. Financial materiality of ESG factors varies by asset class and investment strategy. Applicability of ESG factors may differ across investment strategies. ESG factors are among many factors considered in evaluating an investment decision, and unless otherwise stated in the relevant offering memorandum or prospectus, do not alter the investment guidelines, strategy or objectives.
Responsible investing incorporates Environmental Social Governance (ESG) factors that may affect exposure to issuers, sectors, industries, limiting the type and number of investment opportunities available, which could result in excluding investments that perform well.
