Nuveen Core Plus Impact Fund

Nuveen Core Plus Impact Fund (NYSE: NPCT) is a closed-end management investment company advised by Nuveen, a large asset manager. Launched in mid-2021, the fund aims to provide a combination of current income, capital appreciation, and positive social and environmental impact. It seeks total return through high current income and capital appreciation, with special consideration for impact and environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria. The fund's core-plus strategy involves a diversified portfolio of global fixed-income securities. This includes a broad allocation to high-quality investment-grade and select non-investment-grade corporate bonds, sovereign and supranational debt, and securitized products like agency mortgage-backed securities. The fund may invest up to 50% of its managed assets in below investment-grade investments and can invest in foreign issuers without limitation, with no more than 30% in emerging market countries. Nuveen Core Plus Impact Fund integrates ESG criteria into its research and portfolio construction, directing a portion of its assets toward green, social, and sustainability bonds, as well as issuers demonstrating strong ESG practices. The fund's investments are subject to Nuveen's proprietary public market impact framework criteria, designed to generate positive, measurable social and environmental impact alongside financial returns. These investments provide direct access to issuers and projects across themes such as Affordable Housing, Community and Economic Development, Renewable Energy and Climate Change, and Natural Resources. Regular impact reporting helps investors track the fund's contributions to areas like renewable energy, climate resilience, and social housing.
