Highlights
• The
Nuveen ESG Dividend ETF (NUDV)’s total return at net asset value (NAV) was
4.75% for the 12 months ended October 31, 2025. The Fund’s custom
index, the Nuveen ESG USA High Dividend Yield Index, returned
5.02%. • The
difference between the Fund’s total return at NAV and that of the custom
index is attributable to management fees and other expenses incurred by
the Fund that are not incurred by the custom index. • During
the reporting period, the Fund’s custom index significantly underperformed
the Fund’s base index, the MSCI USA Index, which returned
21.89%. • Performance
drivers between the Fund’s custom index and base index during the
reporting period: • Top
contributors to the custom index’s relative performance • An
overweight to Citigroup Inc. • An
overweight to Caterpillar Inc. • An
overweight to Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. • Top
detractors from the custom index’s relative performance • An
underweight and security selection in the information technology sector,
including a lack of exposure to Broadcom Inc. and NVIDIA
Corporation. • An
overweight and security selection in the consumer staples sector,
including overweights to Proctor & Gamble Company, Target

Performance
Highlights
• The
Nuveen ESG Emerging Markets Equity ETF (NUEM)’s total return at net asset
value (NAV) was 24.42% for the 12 months ended October 31, 2025. The
Fund’s custom index, the Nuveen ESG Emerging Markets Equity Index,
returned 24.94%. • The
difference between the Fund’s total return at NAV and that of the custom
index is attributable to management fees and other expenses incurred by
the Fund that are not incurred by the custom index, along with fair value
pricing of the Fund’s international securities. • A
non‑U.S. Equity Fund’s return may sometimes diverge from the return of its
benchmark index more than would be expected. This may be the result of a
fair-value pricing adjustment. Many foreign exchanges close before the
Fund’s daily net asset value (NAV) is calculated (generally 4 p.m. ET). In
the intervening hours, the value of foreign securities can change, and
these changes are not reflected immediately in the Fund’s benchmark index.
They may, however, be reflected in the calculation of the Fund’s NAV for
that day. • During
the reporting period, the Fund’s custom index underperformed the Fund’s
base index, the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (Net), which returned
27.91%. • Performance
drivers between the Fund’s custom index and base index during the
reporting period: • Top
contributors to the custom index’s relative performance • Security
selection in the industrials sector, led by overweights to SK Square,
Ltd., Bharat Electronics Limited, and LS Electric Co.,
Ltd. • Security
selection in the financials sector, led by overweights to Agricultural
Bank of China Limited and Industrial and Commercial Bank of China
Limited. • Top
detractors from the custom index’s relative performance • Security
selection in the consumer discretionary sector, including a lack of
exposure to Alibaba Group Holding Limited and overweights to Meituan and
Trent Limited. • Security
selection in the materials sector, including overweights to LG Chem Ltd.,
Pidilite Industries Limited, and Asian Paints Ltd. • An
underweight and security selection in the information technology sector,
including a lack of exposure to SK Hynix Inc. and Samsung Electronics Co.,

• The

difference between the Fund’s total return at NAV and that of the custom

the Fund that are not incurred by the custom index, along with the
representative sampling process. The representative sampling process
utilizes a subset of index securities in an effort to provide exposure
similar to that of the custom index. • During
