Returns the fund reported
2019-09 – 2026-05Monthly total returns from Item B.5 of EWC's own filings, 81 months on record. Not computed here and not from a price feed.
Cross-checked against a series computed separately from prices: median difference 0.10 percentage points over 81 months, which is roughly the distributions. Every month with the filing it came from: EWC.json · all funds.
Who borrows EWC's shares
2026-05-31The 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.
| Borrower | On loan | Share 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 → 2026-05-3185 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.

Derivative exposure and counterparties
as of 2026-05-31A 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.
