Summary

A seasoned industry veteran leads Nuveen Floating Rate Income, and a sizable research and trading group serves as the engine that drives the fundamentals-rooted process. A readiness to exploit market dislocations can give the strategy an aggressive bent, but overall risk-taking has moderated under the leadership of Scott Caraher, who took over as lead in October 2018 but has been with this strategy since its inception in May 2011.
