Who borrows FWD'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, $22m was out to 4 borrowers, 0.75% of net assets. The largest, MORGAN STANLEY & CO. INTERNATIONAL PLC, held 80.5% of it.

BorrowerOn loanShare of the loan
MORGAN STANLEY & CO. INTERNATIONAL PLC $17m 80.5%
BofA Securities, Inc. $4m 16.5%
UBS AG $452,228 2.1%
GOLDMAN SACHS INTERNATIONAL $180,505 0.8%

Cash collateral reported against the loan: 0.01% of net assets, 1.3% 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 FWD has filed, with each borrower: FWD.json · all funds.

Since the previous filing

2026-02-28 → 2026-05-31

114 positions became 116: 36 added (23.9% of the fund at the later date), 34 dropped (18.6% at the earlier date). Half the sum of all weight changes, a turnover proxy: 32.9%. Positions are matched on identifiers, so a security whose identifier changed shows as one drop and one add. Every filing of FWD compared this way, as a feed: changes.xml · all funds: filings received.
