Who borrows SCHE'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, $60m was out to 5 borrowers, 0.47% of net assets. The largest, CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS INC., held 45.8% of it.

BorrowerOn loanShare of the loan
CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS INC. $27m 45.8%
BofA Securities, Inc. $14m 23.1%
BARCLAYS CAPITAL INC. $9m 15.8%
BNP PARIBAS SECURITIES CORP $8m 13.2%
MORGAN STANLEY & CO LLC $1m 2.1%

Cash collateral reported against the loan: 0.52% of net assets, 110.4% 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 SCHE has filed, with each borrower: SCHE.json · all funds.

Since the previous filing

2026-02-28 → 2026-05-31

2,133 positions became 2,178: 92 added (1.2% of the fund at the later date), 47 dropped (0.4% at the earlier date). Half the sum of all weight changes, a turnover proxy: 9.9%. Positions are matched on identifiers, so a security whose identifier changed shows as one drop and one add. Every filing of SCHE compared this way, as a feed: changes.xml · all funds: filings received.

99.9% of SCHE 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 2026-05-31

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 $12.74B. Notional of an interest-rate or currency swap is not equity exposure.
