Moody’s rates Nuveen preferreds A1

Moody's Investors Service said it assigned an A1 long-term rating to preferred shares that will be issued by Nuveen Preferred & Income Opportunities Fund (NYSE: JPC).

Nuveen plans to offer $150 million of the taxable shares with a $1,000 per share liquidation preference.

“The A1 preferred share rating reflects JPC's strong risk-adjusted asset coverage and capital structure, excellent capacity to service periodic payments, and concentrated exposure to the financial services sector,” Moody’s said in a press release.
