Who borrows EWC'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, $34m was out to 2 borrowers, 0.61% of net assets. The largest, GOLDMAN SACHS & CO., held 76.6% of it.

BorrowerOn loanShare of the loan
GOLDMAN SACHS & CO. $26m 76.6%
CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS INC. $8m 23.4%

Cash collateral reported against the loan: 0.64% of net assets, 104.6% 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 EWC has filed, with each borrower: EWC.json · all funds.

Since the previous filing

2026-02-28 → 2026-05-31

85 positions became 86: 3 added (0.6% of the fund at the later date), 2 dropped (0.5% at the earlier date). Half the sum of all weight changes, a turnover proxy: 5.6%. Positions are matched on identifiers, so a security whose identifier changed shows as one drop and one add. Every filing of EWC 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 $5.48B. Notional of an interest-rate or currency swap is not equity exposure.
