DFSI holdings

DFSI reports 2,809 holdings and behaves like 361.8 equally weighted ones, computed from its SEC Form N-PORT filing for 2026-07-31. The fact sheet publishes the first number; this page computes the second, and traces it across 14 quarters of filings.

Measured concentration

as of 2026-07-31

Read this figure with the following in mind

6.8% of net assets carries no asset category in the filing

2.2% of net assets is securities-lending cash collateral, excluded from the figure; counted as filed the fund would read 312.0

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

2.16% collateral

DFSI's filing lists 2,811 positions including 2.16% of net assets in securities-lending cash collateral. Counted as filed the fund reads 312 effective holdings with a top ten of 11.3%; on its own investments — the figure above — it reads 361.8 with a top ten of 9.77%. 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 DFSI's shares

2026-07-31

The fund lends its holdings, and Item B.4.a of the filing names every firm holding them. At 2026-07-31, $38m was out to 22 borrowers. The largest, CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS INC., held 18.1% of it.

BorrowerOn loanShare of the loan
CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS INC. $7m 18.1%
BARCLAYS BANK PLC $6m 16.9%
BofA Securities, Inc. $6m 15.3%
TD SECURITIES (USA), LLC $3m 8.4%
J.P. MORGAN SECURITIES PLC $3m 7.8%

The filing reports no cash collateral position against this loan. Collateral taken in a form the fund does not hold as a position does not appear in N-PORT, so this is silence rather than absence.

Since the previous filing

2026-01-31 → 2026-04-30

2,837 positions became 2,738: 110 added (3.0% of the fund at the later date), 209 dropped (3.2% at the earlier date). Half the sum of all weight changes, a turnover proxy: 10.0%. Positions are matched on identifiers, so a security whose identifier changed shows as one drop and one add.

97.8% of DFSI is carried at a quoted market price (fair-value level 1). Categories and levels are the filer's, from Form N-PORT; what a low level-1 share does and does not mean is in the measure's page.

Derivative exposure and counterparties

as of 2026-04-30

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 $1.04B. Notional of an interest-rate or currency swap is not equity exposure.
