Who borrows ESGD'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, $9m was out to 2 borrowers, 0.08% of net assets. The largest, MORGAN STANLEY & CO LLC, held 82.3% of it.

BorrowerOn loanShare of the loan
MORGAN STANLEY & CO LLC $8m 82.3%
GOLDMAN SACHS & CO. $2m 17.7%

Cash collateral reported against the loan: 0.09% of net assets, 113.5% 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 ESGD has filed, with each borrower: ESGD.json · all funds.

Since the previous filing

2026-02-28 → 2026-05-31

366 positions became 375: 37 added (4.1% of the fund at the later date), 28 dropped (2.9% at the earlier date). Half the sum of all weight changes, a turnover proxy: 10.4%. Positions are matched on identifiers, so a security whose identifier changed shows as one drop and one add. Every filing of ESGD compared this way, as a feed: changes.xml · all funds: filings received.

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 $11.66B. Notional of an interest-rate or currency swap is not equity exposure.
