Broken link
The first reference (link) to company facts is broken. Don't know enough about the subject to be able to resolve. --Peculiar Investor 21:09, 15 April 2014 (CDT)

I just saw that. The website was redesigned, so the reference is no longer available. It's on my list to fix, see this forum post: Re: TIAA-CREF is buying Nuveen?. The founding year was a typo and easy to take care of now. --LadyGeek 21:21, 15 April 2014 (CDT)
 * How about TIAA-CREF - Organizational Structure | TIAA-CREF? A more fundamental question is should the introduction be restructured/rewritten to focus more on what they do as the rest of the article covers. See Writing better articles for ideas. --Peculiar Investor 19:04, 16 April 2014 (CDT)

That's an idea for consideration. The forum thread leads to this SEC link: Subsidiaries of TIAA-CREF Life Insurance Company, the image may be useful. Exploring the URL (ftp: access allowed) leads to these SEC links - noting here for future use:


 * EDGAR Filing Documents for 0001193125-10-093446 (where the image came from)
 * TIAA-CREF Life Insurance CO (all filings)

Also to research: The external link Is TIAA-CREF a Nonprofit Organization? is broken. The forum thread answered that question here: Re: TIAA-CREF is buying Nuveen?. --LadyGeek 20:49, 16 April 2014 (CDT)
 * What is the purpose of the article? From my reading, it is how to implement a low cost indexing solution using what's available with TIAA-CREF. The companies structure and history could then become sub-heading, not the introduction to the article. --Peculiar Investor 20:57, 16 April 2014 (CDT)

Reader feedback: This page is missing the sto...

"This page is missing the stock tickers for some of the mutual funds described."

The TIAA-CREF Fund Overview is not clear on specific fund recommendations. Additionally, TIAA-CREF offers different funds based on employer plan specifics.

I'm thinking to leave the page alone. Any thoughts?

ISBN link
Crefwatch modified the Further reading list item (TIAA: Difference between revisions) with a comment "Added additional download link, can't edit ISBN Bogleheads book page.".

I think the confusion is that there are actually two books. The entry is a link to a publicly available PDF, the ISBN is for a purchased hardcover. I modified the entry to clarify this difference. There is no need to modify Bogleheads:Book sources - the source for Special:BookSources.

Does this address your concern? --LadyGeek 01:26, 12 March 2023 (UTC)
