Nuveen Closed-End Funds’ Proposals Receive Support of Leading Proxy Advisory Service

CHICAGO, November 23, 2015 – Nuveen Investments, a leading global provider of investment services to institutions as well as individual investors, today announced that Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. (ISS) has recommended that shareholders vote in favor of a plan to merge eight national municipal closed-end funds and to reposition the portfolios of the two acquiring funds. ISS is widely recognized as the leading independent proxy advisory firm in the nation. Its recommendations are relied upon by hundreds of major institutional investment firms, mutual funds, and other fiduciaries throughout the country.

ISS recommends the funds’ shareholders vote in favor of the proposed changes and mergers at the funds’ annual shareholder’s meeting on December 9, 2015. The proposals seek to enhance the funds’ competitiveness and investor appeal by:

 

  Improving fund net earnings potential through a broader investment mandate;

 

  Creating significantly larger funds that offer greater liquidity and ease of trading; and

 

  Eliminating overlapping products and enhancing fund differentiation.

The proposed fund mergers are as follows:
