DFSV holdings

DFSV reports 995 holdings and behaves like 354.9 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 17 quarters of filings.

Measured concentration

as of 2026-07-31

Read this figure with the following in mind

5.7% of net assets is securities-lending cash collateral, excluded from the figure; counted as filed the fund would read 164.9

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

5.71% collateral

DFSV's filing lists 996 positions including 5.71% of net assets in securities-lending cash collateral. Counted as filed the fund reads 164.9 effective holdings with a top ten of 11.97%; on its own investments — the figure above — it reads 354.9 with a top ten of 6.89%. 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 DFSV'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, $538m was out to 31 borrowers. The largest, National Financial Services LLC, held 30.8% of it.

BorrowerOn loanShare of the loan
National Financial Services LLC $166m 30.8%
BofA Securities, Inc. $87m 16.1%
HSBC BANK PLC $82m 15.2%
CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS INC. $43m 8.0%
The Bank of Nova Scotia $24m 4.5%

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

1,014 positions became 1,027: 60 added (1.5% of the fund at the later date), 47 dropped (2.5% at the earlier date). Half the sum of all weight changes, a turnover proxy: 12.1%. Positions are matched on identifiers, so a security whose identifier changed shows as one drop and one add.

Derivative exposure and counterparties

as of 2026-04-30

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 $7.51B. Notional of an interest-rate or currency swap is not equity exposure.
