About TLISX

Nuveen Quant International Small Cap Equity Fund Class A is a mutual fund designed to deliver favorable long-term total returns primarily through capital appreciation. The fund allocates at least 80% of its assets to small-cap equity securities of companies based outside the United States, ensuring exposure across a broad range of international markets and economies. It invests in small-cap companies that span diverse sectors, growth rates, and valuations, with a mandate to maintain holdings in a minimum of three countries other than the U.S. The fund employs proprietary quantitative models to evaluate a wide universe of foreign small-cap stocks, aiming to identify those with solid prospects for long-term appreciation. By leveraging systematic, data-driven strategies, it seeks to optimize portfolio construction and manage risk relative to its benchmark, the MSCI ACWI ex USA Small Cap Index. This approach allows the fund to target opportunities in both developed and emerging markets, providing investors exposure to the growth potential and diversification benefits associated with international small-cap equities.
