PTRB holdings

PTRB reports 1,222 holdings and behaves like 155.6 equally weighted ones, computed from its SEC Form N-PORT filing for 2026-05-29. The fact sheet publishes the first number; this page computes the second, and traces it across 18 quarters of filings.

Measured concentration

as of 2026-05-29

This figure is not comparable with other funds

swap and futures notional is 75% of net assets: the fund's exposure is delivered by derivatives, and a count of its filed positions does not describe it. See the exposure section for what the notional is written on

The figure below is what the filing says, published unchanged. What it may not do is sit beside a plain long-only fund and be read as the same quantity. How comparability is decided.

3.7% of PTRB is carried at a quoted market price (fair-value level 1); 0.1% at level 3, priced from the filer's own inputs. 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 2026-05-29

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 $980M. Notional of an interest-rate or currency swap is not equity exposure.

Issuers fill the spread field differently (some file the all-in rate), so compare within an issuer, not across.
