Who borrows URTH'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, $38m was out to 16 borrowers, 0.47% of net assets. The largest, MORGAN STANLEY & CO LLC, held 29.2% of it.

BorrowerOn loanShare of the loan
MORGAN STANLEY & CO LLC $11m 29.2%
GOLDMAN SACHS & CO. $7m 19.3%
STATE STREET BANK & TRUST COMPANY $5m 13.1%
JP MORGAN SECURITIES LLC $3m 7.2%
NOMURA SECURITIES INTERNATIONAL INC. $3m 7.2%

Cash collateral reported against the loan: 0.51% of net assets, 109.6% 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 URTH has filed, with each borrower: URTH.json · all funds.

Since the previous filing

2026-02-28 → 2026-05-31

1,322 positions became 1,327: 46 added (1.1% of the fund at the later date), 41 dropped (0.8% at the earlier date). Half the sum of all weight changes, a turnover proxy: 8.8%. Positions are matched on identifiers, so a security whose identifier changed shows as one drop and one add.

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 $8.10B. Notional of an interest-rate or currency swap is not equity exposure.
