TIAA-CREF FUNDS – Notes to Schedules of Investments (unaudited)

 

Note 1—organization and significant accounting policies

 

TIAA-CREF Funds (the “Trust”) is a Delaware statutory trust that was organized on April 15, 1999 and is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The following TIAA-CREF Funds are included in this report: Enhanced Large-Cap Growth Index Fund, Enhanced Large-Cap Value Index Fund, Growth & Income Fund, Large-Cap Growth Fund, Large-Cap Value Fund, Mid-Cap Growth Fund, Mid-Cap Value Fund, Small-Cap Equity Fund, Social Choice Equity Fund, Emerging Markets Equity Fund, Enhanced International Equity Index Fund, Global Natural Resources Fund, International Equity Fund, International Opportunities Fund, Equity Index Fund, Large-Cap Growth Index Fund, Large-Cap Value Index Fund, S&P 500 Index Fund, Small-Cap Blend Index Fund, Emerging Markets Equity Index Fund, International Equity Index Fund, and the Emerging Markets Debt Fund (collectively, the “Funds” or individually, the “Fund”).

 

The Funds offer their shares, without a sales load, through their principal underwriter, Teachers Personal Investors Services, Inc. (“TPIS”), which is a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America (“TIAA”). Teachers Advisors, Inc. (“Advisors”), a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of TIAA, is registered with the Commission as an investment adviser and provides investment management services for the Funds. The Funds offer up to four share classes, although any one Fund may not necessarily offer all four classes. The Funds may offer Institutional, Premier, Retirement and Retail Classes of shares. Each class differs by the allocation of class-specific expenses and voting rights in matters affecting a single class.

 

The accompanying schedules of investments were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) which may require the use of estimates made by management. Actual results may differ from those estimates. The Funds are investment companies and follow the accounting guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification 946, Financial Services—Investment Companies. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds.

 

Security valuation: The Funds’ investments in securities are recorded at their estimated fair value as described in the valuation of investments note to the schedules of investments.

 

Investment transactions: Security transactions are accounted for as of the trade date for financial reporting purposes. 

 

Foreign currency transactions and translation: Assets, including investments, and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar values each day using exchange rates obtained from an independent third party. Purchases and sales of securities, income, and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rate on the date of the transaction. The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on realized and unrealized security gains and losses is reflected as a component of security gains and losses.

301

TIAA-CREF FUNDS – Notes to Schedules of Investments (unaudited)

 

Transactions with affiliates: The Funds may purchase or sell investment securities in transactions with affiliated entities under procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees (“Board”) pursuant to the 1940 Act. These transactions are effected at market rates without incurring broker commissions.

 

New accounting pronouncement: In June 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-11 Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financing, and Disclosures (the “Update”). The Update will require, amongst other items, additional disclosures for transactions that are accounted for as secured borrowings, such as loaned securities. The Update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and for interim periods beginning after March 15, 2015. The Funds expect to adopt the Update for the April 30, 2015 semiannual report.

 

Note 2—valuation of investments

 

Portfolio investments are valued at their estimated fair value utilizing various valuation methods approved by the Board. U.S. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes market inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of inputs are:

 

•           Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

•           Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, credit spreads, etc.)

•           Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

 

The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

 

A description of the valuation techniques applied to the Funds’ major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value follows:

 

Exchange-traded equity securities, common and preferred stock: Equity securities listed or traded on a national market or exchange are valued based on their sale price on such market or exchange at the close of business on the date of valuation, or at the mean of the closing bid and asked prices if no sale is reported. To the extent these securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Foreign investments are valued at the last sale price or official closing price reported on the exchange where traded and converted to U.S. dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange on the date of valuation. For events affecting the value of foreign securities between the time when the exchange on which they are traded closes and the time when the Funds’ net assets are calculated, such securities will be valued at fair value in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board. Foreign securities are generally categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

Debt securities: Debt securities, including equity-linked notes, will generally be valued using prices provided by a pricing service that may employ various indications of value

302

TIAA-CREF FUNDS – Notes to Schedules of Investments (unaudited)

 

including but not limited to broker-dealer quotations. Certain debt securities, other than money market instruments, are valued based on the most recent bid price or the equivalent quoted yield for such securities (or those of comparable maturity, quality and type). Debt securities are generally categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy; in instances where prices, yields or any other key inputs are unobservable, they are categorized in Level 3 of the hierarchy.

 

Short-term investments: Short-term investments, excluding investments in registered investment companies, with maturities of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. The amortized cost of an instrument is determined by valuing it at its original cost and thereafter accreting or amortizing any discount or premium to its face value at a constant rate until maturity. Short-term investments with maturities in excess of 60 days are valued in the same manner as debt securities. Effective January 2, 2015, all short-term investments were valued in the same manner as debt securities. Short-term investments are generally categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

Investments in registered investment companies: These investments are valued at their net asset value on the valuation date. These investments are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

Futures contracts: Stock and bond index futures, which are traded on commodity exchanges, are valued at the last sale price as of the close of such commodity exchanges and are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

Options: Purchased and written options listed or traded on a national market or exchange are valued at the last sale price as of the close of such exchange or at the mean of the closing bid and asked prices if no sale is reported. To the extent these securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

Any portfolio security for which market quotations are not readily available or for which the above valuation procedures are deemed not to reflect fair value are valued at fair value, as determined in good faith using procedures approved by the Board. To the extent the inputs are observable and timely, the values would be categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy; otherwise they would be categorized as Level 3.

 

Transfers between levels are recognized at the end of the reporting period. For the period ended January 31, 2015, there were no material transfers between levels by the Funds.

 

As of January 31, 2015, 100% of the value of investments in the Enhanced Large-Cap Growth Index Fund, Large-Cap Growth Fund, Mid-Cap Growth Fund, Small-Cap Equity Fund, Large-Cap Growth Index Fund, Large-Cap Value Index Fund, and the S&P 500 Index Fund were valued based on Level 1 inputs.

 

As of January 31, 2015, 100% of the value of investments in the Emerging Markets Debt Fund was valued based on Level 2 inputs.

Note 3—derivative instruments

 

As defined by U.S. GAAP, a derivative is a financial instrument whose value is derived from an underlying security price, foreign exchange rate, interest rate, index of prices or rates, or other variables. Derivatives require little or no initial investment and permit or require net settlement. The Funds value derivatives at fair value.

 

Futures contracts: The Funds are subject to equity price risk in the normal course of pursuing their investment objectives. The Funds use futures contracts to manage exposure to the equity markets and for cash management purposes to remain highly invested in these markets while minimizing transaction costs. Buying futures contracts tends to increase exposure to the underlying instrument/index, while selling futures contracts tends to decrease exposure to the underlying instrument/index or hedge other investments. Initial margin deposits are made upon entering into a futures contract, and variation margin receipts or payments are settled daily reflecting changes in the value of the futures contracts. Daily changes in the value of such contracts are reflected in net unrealized gains and losses. Gains or losses are realized upon the expiration or closing of the futures contracts or if the counterparties do not perform in accordance with contractual provisions. With futures, there is minimal counterparty credit risk to the Funds since futures are exchange-traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange-traded funds, guarantees the futures against default.

 

At January 31, 2015, the Funds held the following open futures contracts:

 

Fund  Futures  Number of
contracts
   Settlement

   Expiration date  Unrealized gain

International Equity Index  MSCI EAFE Mini Index   34    3,003,220   March 2015   (19,543)

 

Options: The Funds are subject to equity price risk in the normal course of pursuing their investment objectives. The Funds use options contracts for hedging and cash management purposes and to seek to increase total return. Call and put options give the holder the right, in return for a premium paid, to purchase or sell, respectively, a security at a specified exercise price at any time during the period of the option. Purchased options are included in the schedule of investments. Premiums on unexercised, expired options are recorded as realized gains or losses; premiums on exercised options are recorded as an adjustment to the proceeds from the sale or cost of the purchase. The difference between the premium and the amount received or paid in a closing transaction is also treated as a realized gain or loss.

Note 5—investments

 

Securities lending: Certain Funds may lend their securities to qualified institutional borrowers to earn additional income. A Fund receives collateral (in the form of cash, Treasury securities or other collateral permitted by applicable law) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of loaned securities during the period of the loan; any additional collateral required due to changes in security values is delivered to the Fund the next business day. Cash collateral received by the Fund will generally be invested in high-quality short-term instruments or in one or more funds maintained by the securities lending agent (“Agent”) for the purpose of investing cash collateral. In lending its securities, a Fund bears the market risk with respect to the investment of collateral and the risk the Agent may default on its contractual obligations to the Fund. The Agent bears the risk that the borrower may default on its obligation to return the loaned securities as the Agent is contractually obligated to indemnify the Fund if at the time of a default by a borrower some or all of the loan securities have not been returned.

TIAA-CREF FUNDS – Notes to Schedules of Investments (unaudited)

 

 

Equity-linked notes: Equity-linked notes are debt securities issued by banks or broker-dealers and are designed to offer a return linked to an underlying security or market index. Equity-linked notes are structured with a defined maturity date. When the note matures, the issuer will pay to, or receive from the Fund, the difference between the nominal value of the underlying instrument at the time of purchase and that instrument’s value at maturity. The Fund will record a realized gain or loss on the transaction. The note is valued daily and any change in the value of the note is reflected in net unrealized gains and losses. Investments in equity-linked notes involve the same risks associated with a direct investment in the underlying security or index that the notes seek to replicate. In addition, there is also counterparty risk associated with these investments because the Fund is relying on the creditworthiness of such counterparty and has no rights under an equity-linked note against the issuer of the underlying security.

 

Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation): At January 31, 2015, net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) based on the aggregate cost of portfolio investments for federal income tax purposes, consisting of gross unrealized appreciation and gross unrealized depreciation was as follows: 

 

Fund  Book cost   Gross
