Who borrows DGRO's shares

2024-07-31

The fund lends its holdings, and Item B.4.a of the filing names every firm holding them. At 2024-07-31, $4m was out to 1 borrower, 0.01% of net assets.

BorrowerOn loanShare of the loan
BofA Securities, Inc. $4m 100.0%

Cash collateral reported against the loan: 0.02% of net assets, 139.7% 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 DGRO has filed, with each borrower: DGRO.json · all funds.

Since the previous filing

2026-01-31 → 2026-04-30

398 positions became 396: 1 added (0.0% of the fund at the later date), 3 dropped (0.0% at the earlier date). Half the sum of all weight changes, a turnover proxy: 6.7%. Positions are matched on identifiers, so a security whose identifier changed shows as one drop and one add. Every filing of DGRO compared this way, as a feed: changes.xml · all funds: filings received.

99.80% equity, 0.19% short-term investment as filed; 100.0% carried at a quoted market price (fair-value level 1). Categories and levels are the filer's; 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 $39.65B. Notional of an interest-rate or currency swap is not equity exposure.
