Nuveen MLP Closed-End Funds Announce Update

Recent market conditions, including the sharp sell-off of energy and energy-related securities, have led management to take certain actions impacting Nuveen Energy MLP Total Return Fund (NYSE: JMF) and Nuveen All Cap Energy MLP Opportunities Fund (NYSE: JMLP). Specifically, both funds are paying down a portion of their borrowings to reduce leverage ratios that have become elevated, especially in recent days, as a result of the sharp decline in value of portfolio holdings. In the coming weeks and months, management and the Funds’ Board of Directors will evaluate the impact of these recent market events, portfolio actions, and the reduction of leverage, on the funds, including the distribution level of each fund.
