Who borrows EZU'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, $57m was out to 7 borrowers, 0.61% of net assets. The largest, GOLDMAN SACHS & CO., held 58% of it.

BorrowerOn loanShare of the loan
GOLDMAN SACHS & CO. $33m 58.0%
UBS AG $7m 12.2%
MORGAN STANLEY & CO LLC $6m 10.4%
BofA Securities, Inc. $4m 7.5%
BARCLAYS CAPITAL INC. $3m 5.1%

Cash collateral reported against the loan: 0.61% of net assets, 100.4% 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 EZU has filed, with each borrower: EZU.json · all funds.

Since the previous filing

2026-02-28 → 2026-05-31

229 positions became 228: 6 added (0.4% of the fund at the later date), 7 dropped (0.3% at the earlier date). Half the sum of all weight changes, a turnover proxy: 5.8%. Positions are matched on identifiers, so a security whose identifier changed shows as one drop and one add. Every filing of EZU compared this way, as a feed: changes.xml · all funds: filings received.

5.0% of EZU 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 2026-05-31

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 $9.37B. Notional of an interest-rate or currency swap is not equity exposure.
