Who borrows EWH'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, $311,920 was out to 1 borrower, 0.03% of net assets.

BorrowerOn loanShare of the loan
MORGAN STANLEY & CO LLC $311,920 100.0%

Cash collateral reported against the loan: 0.03% of net assets, 104.8% 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 EWH has filed, with each borrower: EWH.json · all funds.

Since the previous filing

2026-02-28 → 2026-05-31

28 positions became 29: 2 added (3.4% 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: 6.5%. Positions are matched on identifiers, so a security whose identifier changed shows as one drop and one add. Every filing of EWH 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 $1.09B. Notional of an interest-rate or currency swap is not equity exposure.
