FYI: Recent stock market swings and discussions about the potential for another recession are making some investors increasingly nervous about their retirement plan assets. To enhance diversification, reduce volatility and improve risk-adjusted returns, global investment manager Nuveen is using direct real estate in its TIAA-CREF Lifecycle Funds target-date series.
Direct real estate refers to private investments in institutional-quality commercial property, such as office buildings, apartments, retail malls and industrial space.
