About NPSFX
Nuveen Preferred Securities and Income Fund Class R6 is a mutual fund designed to provide a high level of current income alongside total return, primarily through investment in preferred securities and other income-producing assets. The fund routinely commits at least 80% of its net assets and any investment-related borrowing to this focus. Notably, at least 25% of assets are allocated to companies principally engaged in the financial services sector, and the fund typically maintains a minimum of 50% of assets in investment-grade securities, with the flexibility to hold up to 50% in securities rated below investment grade. This approach provides exposure to a broad and diversified credit profile, balancing risk and yield potential. With hundreds of holdings, a sizable asset base, and monthly income distributions, the fund plays a substantial role in delivering steady income within the preferred stock category, particularly appealing to institutional and retirement-focused investors seeking diversification and yields generally higher than those offered by traditional government or corporate bonds. Its disciplined strategy and sector concentration position it as a notable participant in the fixed income segment of the financial market.
