Who borrows EPP's shares

2026-05-31

The fund lends its holdings, and Item B.4.a of the filing names every firm holding them. At 2026-05-31, $5m was out to 5 borrowers, 0.26% of net assets. The largest, CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS INC., held 86.7% of it.

BorrowerOn loanShare of the loan
CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS INC. $5m 86.7%
BofA Securities, Inc. $423,395 7.8%
MORGAN STANLEY & CO LLC $267,100 4.9%
SG AMERICAS SECURITIES LLC $26,154 0.5%
GOLDMAN SACHS & CO. $5,508 0.1%

Cash collateral reported against the loan: 0.27% of net assets, 105.5% 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 EPP has filed, with each borrower: EPP.json · all funds.

Since the previous filing

2026-02-28 → 2026-05-31

95 positions became 100: 6 added (0.1% of the fund at the later date), 1 dropped (0.0% at the earlier date). Half the sum of all weight changes, a turnover proxy: 5.7%. Positions are matched on identifiers, so a security whose identifier changed shows as one drop and one add. Every filing of EPP compared this way, as a feed: changes.xml · all funds: filings received.

4.7% of EPP 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 2026-05-31

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 $2.12B. Notional of an interest-rate or currency swap is not equity exposure.
