- Nuveen ESG Emerging Markets Equity ETF (NUEM) is an exchange-traded fund that seeks to track the investment results, before fees and expenses, of the Nuveen ESG Emerging Markets Equity Index. The ETF employs a passive management approach by investing substantially all of its assets in the securities comprising the index in approximate proportion to their weightings therein; the underlying index applies a rules-based methodology to select a diversified portfolio of equity securities from companies in emerging market countries that meet specific environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria, controversial business involvement screens, and low-carbon transition criteria, with quarterly rebalancing provided by index provider MSCI. Top holdings include Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (approximately 11.92%), Delta Electronics, Inc., HDFC Bank Limited, China Construction Bank Corporation, and Kuaishou Technology, representing key sectors such as technology, financials, and consumer discretionary across markets like Taiwan, India, China, and South Korea. Operated globally with a focus on emerging markets including Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East, NUEM targets institutional and retail investors seeking ESG-integrated exposure to high-growth equities; the fund, which lists on the Cboe BZX Exchange, manages approximately $312.71 million to $332.2 million in assets under management with an expense ratio of 36 basis points. NUEM was launched on June 6, 2017, and forms part of the broader exchange-traded fund offerings from Nuveen, the investment management arm of TIAA headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, a firm founded in 1898 that oversees $1.4 trillion in public and private assets worldwide. In recent developments, Nuveen completed the rebranding of TIAA-CREF funds, including certain share classes, to the Nuveen name effective May 1, 2024, aligning the ETF family under its global asset management banner. The firm acquired Brooklyn Investment Group, a leading custom multi-asset direct indexing provider, in 2025 following a 2023 strategic partnership and minority investment with TIAA Ventures, enhancing capabilities in tax-advantaged equity and fixed income solutions. Additional strategic moves include the October 2025 launch of a Global Multi-Asset Infrastructure Platform consolidating teams for public and private infrastructure investments, alongside new ETF introductions such as municipal bond strategies in January 2025 and a collateralized loan obligation (CLO) ETF in late 2024.
