Two Nuveen Target Term Closed-end Funds Approve Investment Policy and Name Changes


The Fund Board of the Nuveen High Income 2023 Target (News - Alert) Term Fund (NYSE: JHAA) and Nuveen High Income November 2021 Target Term Fund (NYSE: JHB) has approved changes to each Fund's name to "Nuveen Corporate Income 2023 Target Term Fund" and "Nuveen Corporate Income November 2021 Target Term Fund", respectively.

Each Fund will also change its investment policy associated with its name. Currently, each Fund seeks to achieve its investment objectives by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its Managed Assets in securities that, at the time of investment, are rated below investment grade (BB+/Ba1 or lower) or are unrated but deemed equivalent by the subadviser. Pursuant to the revised policy, each Fund's requirement to invest 80% of its Managed Assets in securities that are rated below investment grade is eliminated. Each Fund will continue to invest at least 80% of its Managed Assets in corporate debt securities.
