Important Notice Regarding Change in Investment Policy

This supplement supersedes and replaces in its entirety the Summary Prospectus and Statutory Prospectus supplement dated March 1, 2024.

The Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of the TIAA-CREF Funds has approved a change in the Fund’s name and non-fundamental policy to invest at least 80% of its assets in particular investments (“80% Policy”), effective May 1, 2024.

Additionally, effective as of May 1, 2024, the following language hereby replaces the Fund’s 80% policy found in the first sentence in the first paragraph of the Fund’s “Principal investment strategies” section in both the Summary Prospectus and the Statutory Prospectus:

Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its assets in equity securities of foreign issuers that meet the Fund’s ESG criteria.
