About us

Nuveen, the investment management arm of TIAA, is one of the largest investment managers in the world with $1.2 trillion in assets under management.

Managing a broad array of assets across diverse asset classes, geographies, and investment styles, we offer solutions for a range of investors including pension funds, insurance companies, sovereign wealth funds, banks and family offices.

We provide investors access to a wide range of liquid and illiquid alternative strategies such as real estate, real assets (farmland, timber, infrastructure) and private capital, in addition to both traditional equity and fixed income assets.

Our heritage providing retirement plans means we wholly understand the challenges other like-minded investors face. We have successfully been investing through market cycles for over 120 years, for both ourselves and our investment partners. We do this with our best-in-class multi-affiliate model.
