Returns the fund reported
2019-09 – 2026-05Monthly total returns from Item B.5 of EWN'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 — percentage points over 0 months, which is roughly the distributions. Every month with the filing it came from: EWN.json · all funds.
Who borrows EWN'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, $3m was out to 3 borrowers, 0.63% of net assets. The largest, Jefferies LLC, held 74.9% of it.
| Borrower | On loan | Share of the loan |
|---|---|---|
| Jefferies LLC | $3m | 74.9% |
| JP MORGAN SECURITIES LLC | $854,340 | 24.8% |
| SG AMERICAS SECURITIES LLC | $12,064 | 0.3% |
Cash collateral reported against the loan: 0.64% of net assets, 102.1% 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 EWN has filed, with each borrower: EWN.json · all funds.
Since the previous filing
2026-02-28 → 2026-05-3158 positions became 57: 1 added (0.0% of the fund at the later date), 2 dropped (1.0% at the earlier date). Half the sum of all weight changes, a turnover proxy: 6.9%. Positions are matched on identifiers, so a security whose identifier changed shows as one drop and one add.

18.6% of EWN 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 2026-05-31A 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 $550M. Notional of an interest-rate or currency swap is not equity exposure.
