About TTBHX

Nuveen Short Term Bond Index Fund Institutional Class is an open-end index mutual fund that seeks total return by tracking a short-duration, investment‑grade bond benchmark. The strategy focuses on the short end of the U.S. fixed‑income market, emphasizing government and high‑quality corporate issues with maturities typically between one and three years. The portfolio uses a sampling approach to closely mirror the characteristics of its benchmark, aiming to deliver efficient exposure to interest rate and credit factors while maintaining broad diversification across hundreds of holdings. As a short-term bond index product, it is designed to exhibit lower interest rate sensitivity than intermediate‑ or long‑duration funds, offering a more stable value profile alongside a steady stream of income distributed monthly. The fund’s rules‑based design and institutional share class structure prioritize cost efficiency and transparent benchmark alignment, making it a core building block for fixed‑income allocation, cash segmentation strategies, and liquidity‑aware portfolios in varying rate environments.
