Fund Description

The fund operates as a "fund of funds," primarily investing in Class W shares of Nuveen mutual funds and other products advised by Teachers Advisors, LLC or its affiliates. Targeting investors who plan for retirement around 2055, it follows an asset allocation strategy that transitions from aggressive to more conservative investments as the target date approaches. The fund aims to allocate approximately 91% to equity and 9% to fixed-income Underlying Funds, with target adjustments over time, ultimately aiming for a 50/50 split in 2055 and approximately 20% equity to 80% fixed-income by 2085. Allocations among market sectors, including U.S. and international equity and various fixed-income instruments, may vary and are subject to change based on market conditions and investment strategies.
