- Boston Partners Global Long/Short Fund Investor Class (BGRSX) is an open-end mutual fund that seeks long-term capital appreciation primarily through a global long/short equity strategy, investing in undervalued stocks with strong business fundamentals and positive momentum while shorting overvalued securities; the portfolio typically features long positions in equities across sectors such as financials, information technology, health care, materials, and industrials, supplemented by fixed-income holdings like U.S. Treasury ETFs and cash equivalents for liquidity and hedging, with net exposure managed through short sales in areas like financials, technology, and consumer discretionary. As of August 31, 2024, the fund held net assets of approximately $178.6 million, with 162 holdings including top long positions in iShares 1-3 Year Treasury Bond ETF, Oracle Corp., Cenovus Energy Inc., Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd., and Everest Group Ltd.; it maintains geographic diversification with primary exposure to the United States (around 87%), Eurozone, Japan, Canada, and the United Kingdom, targeting issuers in developed markets and selectively emerging markets. Boston Partners, the fund's former investment adviser founded in 1995 and headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts, applies its proprietary Three Circle investment philosophy—focusing on valuation, fundamentals, and momentum—across its long/short equity strategies managing $1.4 billion in assets as of September 30, 2025. In a significant recent development, the fund underwent a reorganization approved by shareholders on September 17, 2024, and completed on October 18, 2024, whereby it transferred all assets and liabilities to the newly formed John Hancock Disciplined Value Global Long/Short Fund, a series of John Hancock Investment Trust; John Hancock Investment Management LLC now serves as the adviser with Boston Partners Global Investors, Inc. acting as sub-adviser, retaining the same core portfolio managers (Christopher K. Hart, Joshua M. Jones, and Soyoun Song) and substantially identical strategies, while offering lower annual operating expenses for the successor fund's Class A shares compared to BGRSX's prior 2.03-2.64% ratio. This structural shift enhances operational efficiency and distribution through John Hancock's platform, aligning with Boston Partners' broader sub-advisory relationships including with Robeco and its service to institutional and individual investors worldwide via mutual funds, ETFs, UCITS, and separate accounts. The fund, launched on April 14, 2014, and domiciled in the United States, continues to emphasize market-neutral risk management with a blend investment style across large- and mid-cap stocks.
