Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of Nuveen Funds:

In planning and performing our audits of the financial statements of 
each of the Nuveen Funds listed in Exhibit A attached (the 
 Funds ), as of and for the year or period ended October 31, 2016, 
in accordance with the standards of the Public Company 
Accounting Oversight Board (United States), we considered the 
Funds internal control over financial reporting, including controls 
over safeguarding securities, as a basis for designing our auditing 
procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the 
financial statements and to comply with the requirements of Form 
N-SAR, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the 
effectiveness of the Funds internal control over financial reporting.  
Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

The management of the Funds is responsible for establishing and 
maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting.  In 
fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments by 
management are required to assess the expected benefits and 
related costs of controls.  A companys internal control over 
financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable 
assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the 
preparation of financial statements for external purposes in 
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles 
(GAAP). A companys internal control over financial reporting 
includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the 
maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and 
fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the 
company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are 
recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements 
in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of 
the company are being made only in accordance with 
authorizations of management and directors of the company; and 
(3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely 
detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the 
companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial 
statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial 
reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, 
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are 
subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of 
changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the 
policies or procedures may deteriorate.

A deficiency in internal control over financial reporting exists when 
the design or operation of a control does not allow management or 
employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned 
functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. A 
material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, 
in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a 
reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Funds 
annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or 
detected on a timely basis.

Our consideration of the Funds internal control over financial 
reporting was for the limited purpose described in the first 
paragraph and would not necessarily disclose all deficiencies in 
internal control that might be material weaknesses under standards 
established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board 
(United States).  However, we noted no deficiencies in the Funds 
internal control over financial reporting and its operation, including 
controls over safeguarding securities, that we consider to be a 
material weakness as defined above as of October 31, 2016.

This report is intended solely for the information and use of 
management and the Board of Trustees of the Funds and the 
Securities and Exchange Commission, and is not intended to be 
and should not be used by anyone other than these specified 
parties.
