As filed, collateral included
3% collateralREMX's filing lists 31 positions including 3% of net assets in securities-lending cash collateral. Counted as filed the fund reads 21.7 effective holdings with a top ten of 59.26%; on its own investments — the figure above — it reads 20.6 with a top ten of 61.4%. The collateral is matched by a liability and is not a holding the fund chose; since 2026-09-18 every figure on this site sets it aside (methodology). Both numbers are in the data.

Who borrows REMX's shares
2026-06-30The fund lends its holdings, and Item B.4.a of the filing names every firm holding them. At 2026-06-30, $334m was out to 23 borrowers, 12.40% of net assets. The largest, BARCLAYS BANK PLC, held 22.7% of it.
| Borrower | On loan | Share of the loan |
|---|---|---|
| BARCLAYS BANK PLC | $76m | 22.7% |
| UBS AG | $61m | 18.2% |
| GOLDMAN SACHS INTERNATIONAL | $56m | 16.7% |
| BNP PARIBAS PRIME BROKERAGE INTERNATIONAL LIMITED | $29m | 8.6% |
| JP MORGAN SECURITIES LLC | $16m | 4.9% |
Cash collateral reported against the loan: 3.00% of net assets, 24.2% 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 REMX has filed, with each borrower: REMX.json · all funds.
Since the previous filing
2026-03-31 → 2026-06-3027 positions became 30: 3 added (7.2% of the fund at the later date), 0 dropped (0.0% at the earlier date). Half the sum of all weight changes, a turnover proxy: 15.4%. Positions are matched on identifiers, so a security whose identifier changed shows as one drop and one add.
