DBEF holdings

DBEF reports 723 holdings and behaves like 206.1 equally weighted ones, computed from its SEC Form N-PORT filing for 2026-05-29. The fact sheet publishes the first number; this page computes the second, and traces it across 27 quarters of filings.

Measured concentration

as of 2026-05-29

Read this figure with the following in mind

1.2% of net assets is securities-lending cash collateral, excluded from the figure; counted as filed the fund would read 206.7

The figure below is what the filing says, published unchanged. What it may not do is sit beside a plain long-only fund and be read as the same quantity. How comparability is decided.

As filed, collateral included

1.18% collateral

DBEF's filing lists 724 positions including 1.18% of net assets in securities-lending cash collateral. Counted as filed the fund reads 206.7 effective holdings with a top ten of 13.61%; on its own investments — the figure above — it reads 206.1 with a top ten of 13.55%. 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.

Who borrows DBEF's shares

2026-05-29

The fund lends its holdings, and Item B.4.a of the filing names every firm holding them. At 2026-05-29, $118m was out to 14 borrowers, 1.34% of net assets. The largest, NOMURA SECURITIES INTERNATIONAL INC., held 35.1% of it.

BorrowerOn loanShare of the loan
NOMURA SECURITIES INTERNATIONAL INC. $42m 35.1%
STATE STREET BANK & TRUST COMPANY $14m 12.0%
BARCLAYS BANK PLC $14m 11.7%
BofA Securities, Inc. $13m 10.6%
MORGAN STANLEY & CO LLC $10m 8.5%

Cash collateral reported against the loan: 1.18% of net assets, 87.9% 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 DBEF has filed, with each borrower: DBEF.json · all funds.

Since the previous filing

2026-02-27 → 2026-05-29

709 positions became 694: 26 added (2.2% of the fund at the later date), 41 dropped (2.8% at the earlier date). Half the sum of all weight changes, a turnover proxy: 9.2%. Positions are matched on identifiers, so a security whose identifier changed shows as one drop and one add.

Derivative exposure and counterparties

as of 2026-05-29

A position count cannot describe a fund that uses derivatives, because a swap is filed at its unrealised gain, not its exposure. These are the notionals the fund itself reported, against net assets of $8.81B. Notional of an interest-rate or currency swap is not equity exposure.
