1Overlap with other funds

As filed, collateral included
1.59% collateralCIBR's filing lists 44 positions including 1.59% of net assets in securities-lending cash collateral. Counted as filed the fund reads 21.1 effective holdings with a top ten of 58.06%; on its own investments — the figure above — it reads 21.2 with a top ten of 58.04%. The collateral is matched by a liability and is not a holding the fund chose; since 2026-09-18 every figure on this site sets it aside (methodology). Both numbers are in the data.

Returns the fund reported
2019-07 – 2026-06Monthly total returns from Item B.5 of CIBR's own filings, 84 months on record. Not computed here and not from a price feed.
Cross-checked against a series computed separately from prices: median difference 0.09 percentage points over 84 months, which is roughly the distributions. Every month with the filing it came from: CIBR.json · all funds.
Who borrows CIBR's shares
2026-06-30The fund lends its holdings, and Item B.4.a of the filing names every firm holding them. At 2026-06-30, $209m was out to 10 borrowers, 1.51% of net assets. The largest, GOLDMAN SACHS & CO., held 58.2% of it.
| Borrower | On loan | Share of the loan |
|---|---|---|
| GOLDMAN SACHS & CO. | $122m | 58.2% |
| JP MORGAN SECURITIES LLC | $34m | 16.3% |
| MORGAN STANLEY & CO LLC | $18m | 8.8% |
| UBS AG | $16m | 7.4% |
| National Financial Services LLC | $7m | 3.4% |
Cash collateral reported against the loan: 1.59% of net assets, 105.1% of the amount lent. That is a floor on the collateral, not the whole of it — collateral the fund does not hold as a position is not in this filing, so a figure under 100% is not evidence of under-collateralisation. How that figure behaves across all funds. Every quarter CIBR has filed, with each borrower: CIBR.json · all funds.
Since the previous filing
2026-03-31 → 2026-06-3043 positions became 43: 0 added (0.0% of the fund at the later date), 0 dropped (0.0% at the earlier date). Half the sum of all weight changes, a turnover proxy: 8.3%. Positions are matched on identifiers, so a security whose identifier changed shows as one drop and one add. Every filing of CIBR compared this way, as a feed: changes.xml · all funds: filings received.
