100.0% of FQAL 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 2026-04-30A 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 $1.37B. Notional of an interest-rate or currency swap is not equity exposure.
