Rows marked derivative are futures positions held against the shares listed beside them. A stock and its future largely cancel, so do not add the two together. Exposure figures are gross: funds that use derivatives (arbitrage, hedged books) hold offsetting positions, so concentration and turnover can read above 100%.
