Who borrows VONG's shares
2026-05-31The fund lends its holdings, and Item B.4.a of the filing names every firm holding them. At 2026-05-31, $12m was out to 9 borrowers, 0.02% of net assets. The largest, BofA Securities, Inc., held 36.2% of it.
| Borrower | On loan | Share of the loan |
|---|---|---|
| BofA Securities, Inc. | $4m | 36.2% |
| BARCLAYS BANK PLC | $3m | 26.2% |
| GOLDMAN SACHS & CO. | $2m | 19.4% |
| JP MORGAN SECURITIES LLC | $932,949 | 7.9% |
| CLEAR STREET LLC | $571,280 | 4.9% |
Cash collateral reported against the loan: 0.02% of net assets, 93.3% 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 VONG has filed, with each borrower: VONG.json · all funds.

2026-02-28 → 2026-05-31392 positions became 389: 2 added (0.0% of the fund at the later date), 5 dropped (0.1% at the earlier date). Half the sum of all weight changes, a turnover proxy: 7.2%.

Asset categories and pricing
as of 2026-05-3199.85% equity, 0.15% short-term investment as filed; 100.0% carried at a quoted market price (fair-value level 1). Categories and levels are the filer's; what a low level-1 share does and does not mean is in the measure's page.
Derivative exposure and counterparties
as of 2026-05-31A 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 $54.81B. Notional of an interest-rate or currency swap is not equity exposure.
| Swap counterparty | Notional | % of net assets |
|---|---|---|
| Bank of America NA | $56M | 0.1% |
| Goldman Sachs International | $1M | 0% |
Financing leg as filed: the fund pays OBFR01 + 0% on $57M of long swap notional . Issuers fill the spread field differently (some file the all-in rate), so compare within an issuer, not across.
