Chairman’s Letter to Shareholders

 

Dear Shareholders,

Whether politics or the economy will prevail over the financial markets this year has been a much-analyzed question. After the U.S. presidential election, stocks rallied to new all-time highs, bonds tumbled, and business and consumer sentiment grew pointedly optimistic. But, to what extent the White House can translate rhetoric into stronger economic and corporate earnings growth remains to be seen. Stock prices have experienced upward momentum driven by positive economic news and earnings growth, inflation is ticking higher and interest rates are higher amid the Federal Reserve (Fed) rate hikes.

The Trump administration’s early policy decisions have caused the markets to reassess their outlooks, cooling the stock market rally and stabilizing bond prices. The White House’s pro-growth agenda of tax reform, infrastructure spending and deregulation remains on the table, but there is growing recognition that it may look different than Wall Street had initially expected. Additionally, Brexit negotiations in the U.K. face new uncertainties in light of the reshuffling of Parliament following the June snap election.

Nevertheless, there is a case for optimism. The jobs recovery, firming wages, the housing market and confidence measures are supportive of continued expansion in the economy. The Fed enacted a series of interest rate hikes in December 2016, March 2017 and June 2017, a vote of confidence that its employment and inflation targets are generally on track. Economies outside the U.S. have strengthened in recent months, possibly heralding the beginnings of a global synchronized recovery. Furthermore, the populist/nationalist undercurrent that helped deliver President Trump’s win and triggered the U.K.’s Brexit remained in the minority during both March’s Dutch general election and May’s French presidential election, easing the political uncertainty surrounding Germany’s elections later this year.

In the meantime, the markets will be focused on economic sentiment surveys along with “hard” data such as consumer and business spending to gauge the economy’s progress. With the Fed now firmly in tightening mode, rate moves that are more aggressive than expected could spook the markets and potentially stifle economic growth. On the political economic front, President Trump’s other signature platform plank, protectionism, is arguably anti-growth. We expect some churning in the markets as these issues sort themselves out.

Market volatility readings have been remarkably low of late, but conditions can change quickly. As market conditions evolve, Nuveen remains committed to rigorously assessing opportunities and risks. If you’re concerned about how resilient your investment portfolio might be, we encourage you to talk to your financial advisor. On behalf of the other members of the Nuveen Fund Board, we look forward to continuing to earn your trust in the months and years ahead.

Sincerely,

William J. Schneider
Chairman of the Board
June 23, 2017

Portfolio Managers’ Comments

Nuveen Enhanced AMT-Free Credit Income Fund (NVG)
Nuveen Enhanced Municipal Credit Income Fund (NZF)
Nuveen Municipal High Income Opportunity Fund (NMZ)

These Funds feature portfolio management by Nuveen Asset Management, LLC, an affiliate of Nuveen, LLC. Portfolio managers John V. Miller, CFA, Paul L. Brennan, CFA, and Scott R. Romans, PhD discuss key investment strategies and the six-month performance of these three national Funds.

On March 14, 2017, the Nuveen Fund Board approved the primary benchmark for NMZ from the S&P Municipal High Yield Index to the S&P Municipal Yield Index. The primary benchmark was changed to better reflect the Fund’s mandate in conjunction with how the Fund is being managed.

What key strategies were used to manage these Funds during the six-month reporting period ended April 30, 2017?

The overall municipal bond market sold off sharply in the first two months of the reporting period following the unexpected U.S. presidential election outcome and concerns that the Trump administration’s tax, regulatory, health care and infrastructure policy might have a negative impact on the demand for, as well as the performance of, municipal bonds. However, as the new administration’s term began, the municipal bond market partially recovered the earlier losses, supported by the market pricing in more realistic expectations about reforms and a better understanding of the limited impact it would have on the municipal market. For the reporting period overall, interest rates rose and credit spreads widened, which were headwinds for municipal bond performance, offsetting a generally positive fundamental backdrop. During this time, we continued to take a bottom-up approach to discovering sectors that appeared undervalued as well as individual credits that we believed had the potential to perform well over the long term.

Our trading activity continued to focus on pursuing the Funds’ investment objectives. Generally speaking, throughout this reporting period, the Funds maintained their overall positioning strategies in terms of duration and yield curve positioning, credit quality exposures and sector allocations.

NVG and NZF slightly increased their exposures to BBB rated bonds over the reporting period, as we found attractive opportunities to add lower rated bonds across a number of sectors. Purchases in NVG included several tax-supported credits, including land-secured bonds and tax-backed bonds issued for New Jersey and the Chicago Board of Education Capital Improvement. We also bought charter school credits and tobacco securitization bonds for NVG. NZF added to positions across many of the same sectors as NVG, including credits issued for airports, hospitals, toll roads, land-secured (which are bonds secured by real estate values), charter schools, tobacco securitization, and Illinois and Illinois-related sectors. Additionally, the market conditions during the report-

The forward-looking statements and other views expressed herein are those of the portfolio managers as of the date of this report. Actual future results or occurrences may differ significantly from those anticipated in any forward-looking statements, and the views expressed herein are subject to change at any time, due to numerous market and other factors. The Funds disclaim any obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements or views expressed herein.

The ratings disclosed are the lowest rating given by one of the following national rating agencies: Standard & Poor’s (S&P), Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (Moody’s) or Fitch, Inc. (Fitch). Credit ratings are subject to change. AAA, AA, A and BBB are investment grade ratings, while BB, B, CCC, CC, C and D are below investment grade ratings. Certain bonds backed by U.S. Government or agency securities are regarded as having an implied rating equal to the rating of such securities. Holdings designated N/R are not rated by these national rating agencies.

Bond insurance guarantees only the payment of principal and interest on the bond when due, and not the value of the bonds themselves, which will fluctuate with the bond market and the financial success of the issuer and the insurer. Insurance relates specifically to the bonds in the portfolio and not to the share prices of a Fund. No representation is made as to the insurers’ ability to meet their commitments.

ing period provided attractive opportunities for tax loss swaps. This strategy involves selling lower coupon bonds that were bought when interest rates were lower and using the proceeds to buy similarly structured bonds with higher coupons, to capitalize on the tax loss (which can be used to offset future taxable gains) and boost the Funds’ income distribution capabilities. Outside of these one-for-one bond swaps, elevated call activity provided most of the proceeds for NVG’s and NZF’s buying activity.

NMZ also saw a significant amount of call activity in this reporting period, which we reinvested across many of the longstanding investment themes in the portfolio. We continued to emphasize California-based bonds and the education sector, with purchases in a California Baptist University issue and a Chicago Board of Education Capital Improvement bond (which was also bought by NVG and NZF, as mentioned earlier in this commentary). NMZ also continued to hold an overweight allocation to land-secured credits, adding positions in Boggy Creek Improvement District in Florida, Miami World Center in Florida and Temecula Community Facilities in California. While call proceeds funded nearly all of the purchases during this reporting period, we also reinvested the proceeds from selling a position in Westchester County Hospital in New York due to a deteriorating credit outlook.

As of April 30, 2017, the Funds continued to use inverse floating rate securities. We employ inverse floaters for a variety of reasons, including duration management and income and total return enhancement. As part of our duration management strategies, NVG continued to invest in forward interest rates swaps to help reduce price volatility risk due to movements in U.S. interest rates relative to the Fund’s benchmark. The interest rate swaps had a negligible impact on performance during this reporting period.

How did the Funds perform during the six-month reporting period ended April 30, 2017?

The tables in each Fund’s Performance Overview and Holding Summaries section of this report provide the Funds’ total returns for the six-month, one-year, five-year, ten-year and since inception periods ended April 30, 2017. Each Fund’s total returns at net asset value (NAV) are compared with the performance of a corresponding market index.

For the six months ended April 30, 2017, the total returns at NAV for all three of these Funds underperformed the return for the national S&P Municipal Bond Index. NVG and NZF trailed the return for the secondary benchmark (composed of 60% S&P Municipal Bond Investment Grade Index and 40% S&P Municipal Bond High Yield Index), and NMZ underperformed the return on the S&P Municipal Bond High Yield Index and the S&P Municipal Yield Index.

The main detractor from the Funds’ relative performance in this reporting period was duration and yield curve positioning. The Funds held longer durations than the benchmark indexes and heavier weightings in the longest duration segments (including meaningful exposure to zero coupon bonds in NVG and NZF), which were disadvantageous as the yield curve steepened and caused longer bonds to underperform shorter bonds.

The performance of NVG and NZF was also influenced by credit ratings allocations, sector positioning and security selection. The two Funds’ credit ratings allocations were beneficial to performance. NVG was aided by its allocations to single B rated bonds, primarily because of the outperformance of tobacco securitization bonds, although the Fund’s exposures to the single A and BBB rated categories detracted from performance. NZF had positive contributions to performance from its single B, BB and non-rated bonds. However, the two Funds’ sector positioning was unfavorable in this reporting period, with underperformance driven by some holdings in the public power sector. NVG and NZF had positions in South Carolina Public Service Authority/Santee Cooper bonds and Georgia Municipal Electric bonds, which suffered because of negative news concerning their nuclear power projects. However, the two Funds’ exposures to tobacco securitization and pre-refunded bonds, two of the best-performing sectors, added value. Tobacco securitization bonds were a standout performer in this reporting period as refunding activity reduced supply and created more favorable technical conditions for the sector, and the fundamental outlook for the sector improved after a report that cigarette

smoking rates have declined less than forecasted. The pre-refunded sector was boosted by its short maturity, high credit quality profile, as these characteristics were more resilient in the municipal bond market’s post-election sell-off. Additionally, the Funds’ selection in Puerto Rico bonds aided relative performance. Although Puerto Rico credits in general performed poorly in this reporting period, our selections, all of which were insured bonds, fared relatively well.

NMZ, which is primarily compared to the S&P Municipal Bond High Yield Index, was also hurt by its duration and yield curve positioning in this reporting period. However, positive contributions to performance came from bonds with a combination of greater credit sensitivity and less interest rate sensitivity. For example, the Chicago Board of Education Capital Improvement bonds (discussed in the strategy section of this commentary) outperformed in this reporting period due to stabilization in the school system’s financial and legal status and some movement on school funding reform at the state level. Bonds that traded more on their fundamentals than on market conditions also performed well, such as the All Aboard Florida (AAF) Project, a high speed rail system targeted to connect Miami, Fort Lauderdale and Palm Beach. The credit offers a short duration and high coupon, which made it less subject to market fluctuations with an attractive source of income. Like NVG and NZF, tobacco securitization bonds were strong performers for NMZ. NMZ’s holdings in Golden State Tobacco Settlement and an Ohio Buckeye Tobacco Settlement issues contributed positively to performance. In addition, the use of regulatory leverage was an important factor affecting performance of the Funds. Leverage is discussed in more detail later in the Fund Leverage section of this report.

An Update Involving Puerto Rico

As noted in the Funds’ previous shareholder reports, we continue to monitor situations in the broader municipal market for any impact on the Funds’ holdings and performance: Puerto Rico’s ongoing debt restructuring is one such case. Puerto Rico began warning investors in 2014 the island’s debt burden might prove to be unsustainable and the Commonwealth pursued various strategies to deal with this burden.

In June 2016, President Obama signed the Puerto Rico Oversight, Management and Economic Stability Act (PROMESA) into law. The legislation established an independent Financial Oversight and Management Board charged with restructuring Puerto Rico’s financial operations and encouraging economic development. In addition to creating an oversight board, PROMESA also provides a legal framework and court-supervised debt restructuring process that enables Puerto Rico to adjust its debt obligations. In March 2017, the oversight board certified a ten-year fiscal plan projecting revenues, expenditures and a primary fiscal surplus available for debt service over the plan horizon. The fiscal plan was considered quite detrimental to creditors, identifying available resources to pay only about 24% of debt service due over the ten year term. In May 2017 (subsequent to the close of this reporting period), the oversight board initiated a bankruptcy-like process for the general government, general obligation debt, the Puerto Rico Sales Tax Financing Corporation (COFINA), the Highways and Transportation Authority (HTA), and the Employee Retirement System. Officials have indicated more public corporations could follow. As of June 2017 Puerto Rico has defaulted on many of its debt obligations, including General Obligation bonds.

In terms of Puerto Rico holdings, shareholders should note that, as of the end of this reporting period, NVG and NZF had limited exposure, which was either insured or investment grade, to Puerto Rico debt, 0.38% and 0.23%, respectively, and NMZ did not hold any Puerto Rico bonds. The Puerto Rico credits offered higher yields, added diversification and triple exemption (i.e., exemption from most federal, state and local taxes). Puerto Rico general obligation debt is currently in default and rated Caa3/D/D by Moody’s, S&P and Fitch, respectively, with negative outlooks.

Portfolio Managers’ Comments (continued)

A Note About Investment Valuations

The municipal securities held by the Funds are valued by the Funds’ pricing service using a range of market-based inputs and assumptions. A different municipal pricing service might incorporate different assumptions and inputs into its valuation methodology, potentially resulting in different values for the same securities. These differences could be significant, both as to such individual securities, and as to the value of a given Fund’s portfolio in its entirety. Thus, the current net asset value of a Fund’s shares may be impacted, higher or lower, if the Fund were to change its pricing service, or if its pricing service were to materially change its valuation methodology. On October 4, 2016, the Funds’ current municipal bond pricing service was acquired by the parent company of another pricing service. The two services have not yet combined their valuation organizations and process, but they announced in March 2017, that they anticipate doing so sometime in the ensuing several months. Such changes could have an impact on the net asset value of the Fund’s shares.

Fund Leverage

IMPACT OF THE FUNDS’ LEVERAGE STRATEGIES ON PERFORMANCE

One important factor impacting the returns of the Funds relative to their comparative benchmarks was the Funds’ use of leverage through their issuance of preferred shares and/or investments in inverse floating rate securities, which represent leveraged investments in underlying bonds. The Funds use leverage because our research has shown that, over time, leveraging provides opportunities for additional income, particularly in the recent market environment where short-term market rates are at or near historical lows, meaning that the short-term rates the Fund has been paying on its leveraging instruments have been much lower than the interest the Fund has been earning on its portfolio of long-term bonds that it has bought with the proceeds of that leverage. However, use of leverage also can expose the Fund to additional price volatility. When a Fund uses leverage, the Fund will experience a greater increase in its net asset value if the municipal bonds acquired through the use of leverage increase in value, but it will also experience a correspondingly larger decline in its net asset value if the bonds acquired through leverage decline in value, which will make the Fund’s net asset value more volatile, and its total return performance more variable over time. In addition, income in levered funds will typically decrease in comparison to unlevered funds when short-term interest rates increase and increase when short-term interest rates decrease. Leverage had a negative impact on the performance of these Funds over this reporting period.

As of April 30, 2017, the Funds’ percentages of leverage are as shown in the accompanying table.

 

  NVG NZF NMZ  
Effective Leverage* 38.79% 37.68% 34.37%  
Regulatory Leverage* 34.02% 35.47% 10.11%  

 

* Effective Leverage is a Fund’s effective economic leverage, and includes both regulatory leverage and the leverage effects of certain derivative and other investments in a Fund’s portfolio that increase the Fund’s investment exposure. Currently, the leverage effects of Tender Option Bond (TOB) inverse floater holdings are included in effective leverage values, in addition to any regulatory leverage. Regulatory leverage consists of preferred shares issued or borrowings of a Fund. Both of these are part of a Fund’s capital structure. A Fund, however, may from time to time borrow on a typically transient basis in connection with its day-to-day operations, primarily in connection with the need to settle portfolio trades. Such incidental borrowings are excluded from the calculation of a Fund’s effective leverage ratio. Regulatory leverage is subject to asset coverage limits set forth in the Investment Company Act of 1940.

Common Share Information

COMMON SHARE DISTRIBUTION INFORMATION

The following information regarding the Funds’ distributions is current as of April 30, 2017. Each Fund’s distribution levels may vary over time based on each Fund’s investment activity and portfolio investments value changes.

During the current reporting period, each Fund’s distributions to common shareholders were as shown in the accompanying table.

Yields                    
Market Yield**     5.87 %   6.04 %   6.13 %
Taxable-Equivalent Yield**     8.15 %   8.39 %   8.51 %

 

* Distribution paid in December 2016.
   
** Market Yield is based on the Fund’s current annualized monthly dividend divided by the Fund’s current market price as of the end of the reporting period. Taxable-Equivalent Yield represents the yield that must be earned on a fully taxable investment in order to equal the yield of the Fund on an after-tax basis. It is based on a federal income tax rate of 28.0%. When comparing a Fund to investments that generate qualified dividend income, the Taxable-Equivalent Yield is lower.

Each Fund in this report seeks to pay regular monthly dividends out of its net investment income at a rate that reflects its past and projected net income performance. To permit each Fund to maintain a more stable monthly dividend, the Fund may pay dividends at a rate that may be more or less than the amount of net income actually earned by the Fund during the period. If a Fund has cumulatively earned more than it has paid in dividends, it will hold the excess in reserve as undistributed net investment income (UNII) as part of the Fund’s net asset value. Conversely, if a Fund has cumulatively paid in dividends more than it has earned, the excess will constitute a negative UNII that will likewise be reflected in the Fund’s net asset value. Each Fund will, over time, pay all its net investment income as dividends to shareholders.

As of April 30, 2017, all the Funds had positive UNII balances, based upon our best estimate, for tax purposes and positive UNII balances for financial reporting purposes.

All monthly dividends paid by each Fund during the current reporting period were paid from net investment income. If a portion of the Fund’s monthly distributions was sourced from or comprised of elements other than net investment income, including capital gains and/or a return of capital, shareholders would have received a notice to that effect. For financial reporting purposes, the composition and per share amounts of each Fund’s dividends for the reporting period are presented in this report’s Statement of Changes in Net Assets and Financial Highlights, respectively. For income tax purposes, distribution information for each Fund as of its most recent tax year end is presented in Note 6 — Income Tax Information within the Notes to Financial Statements of this report.

Risk Considerations

Fund shares are not guaranteed or endorsed by any bank or other insured depository institution, and are not federally insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Nuveen AMT-Free Municipal Credit Income Fund (NVG)

Investing in closed-end funds involves risk; principal loss is possible. There is no guarantee the Fund’s investment objectives will be achieved. Closed-end fund shares may frequently trade at a discount or premium to their net asset value. Debt or fixed income securities such as those held by the Fund, are subject to market risk, credit risk, interest rate risk, derivatives risk, liquidity risk, and income risk. As interest rates rise, bond prices fall. Lower credit debt securities may be more likely to fail to make timely interest or principal payments. Leverage increases return volatility and magnifies the Fund’s potential return and its risks; there is no guarantee a fund’s leverage strategy will be successful. These and other risk considerations such as inverse floater risk and tax risk are described in more detail on the Fund’s web page at www.nuveen.com/NVG.

Investing in closed-end funds involves risk; principal loss is possible. There is no guarantee the Fund’s investment objectives will be achieved. Closed-end fund shares may frequently trade at a discount or premium to their net asset value. Debt or fixed income securities such as those held by the Fund, are subject to market risk, credit risk, interest rate risk, derivatives risk, liquidity risk, and income risk. As interest rates rise, bond prices fall. Lower credit debt securities may be more likely to fail to make timely interest or principal payments.
