Securities offered through Boston Partners Securities, LLC, member FINRA, SiPC, an affiliate of Boston Partners Global Investors, Inc. The performance data quoted represents past performance and does not guarantee future results. Current performance may be lower or higher. Performance data current to the most recent month-end may be obtained at The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Returns are historical and include changes in share price and reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Returns shown are net of fees and expenses. Fund holdings are subject to change and may not represent current or future holdings. The value of a fund's investments will vary from day to day based on many factors. Stock values fluctuate in response to issuer, political, regulatory, market or economic developments. The value of mid capitalization securities may be more volatile than those of larger issuers. Investments in foreign issuers may be more volatile than in the U.S. market. Important Risk Disclosures Investment in shares of the Emerging Markets Long/Short Fund, Global Long/Short Fund, the Long/Short Equity Fund and the Long/Short Research Fund is more volatile and risky than some other forms of investments. Since the Emerging Markets Long/Short Fund, Global Long/Short Fund, the Long/ Short Equity Fund and the Long/Short Research Fund has both a long and a short portfolio, an investment in the Fund will involve risks associated with twice the number of investment decisions made for a typical stock fund and short selling carries a risk on unlimited loss. These types of funds typically have a high portfolio turnover that could increase transaction costs and cause short-term capital gains to be realized. Stocks of small capitalization securities are generally more volatile and less liquid than investments in issuers with market capitalizations greater than $ billion. Unseasoned issuers may not have an established financial history and may have limited product lines, markets or financial resources, making them more volatile and difficult to sell. Moreover, the lack of an efficient market for these securities may make them difficult to value. International investing is subject to special risks including, but not limited to, currency risk associated with securities denominated in other than US dollar, which may be affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates, political, social or economic instability, and differences in taxation, auditing and other financial practices. Investment in emerging market securities may increase these risks. Small cap companies, as defined by our product, are those with a market capitalization similar to the Russell 000 Value Index. These companies tend to be new, in early development, or in transition. Usually, small caps are rapidly evolving, generating a new product or service, or taking advantage of a new market. However, returns may be inconsistent and may fluctuate widely over the short term, and small stock valuations tend to be more sensitive to market psychology. The Fund may invest in more aggressive investments such as foreign securities which may expose the fund to currency and exchange rate fluctuations, illiquid securities, which may cause greater volatility and less liquidity. The Long/Short Equity Fund is a single account managed by Boston Partners balancing long and short portfolio strategies seeking to achieve stable absolute returns. This product is not risk neutral. It is exposed to style, capitalization, sector and short implementation risk. Returns are market value weighted, and are calculated on a total return, time weighted basis using trade date valuations. Returns reflect the reinvestment of dividends and other earnings, and are net of fees and expenses. Short sales are an integral part of the investment strategy and constitute the use of leverage.

It is exposed to style, capitalization, sector and short implementation risk. Returns are market value weighted, and are calculated on a total return, time weighted basis using trade date valuations. The Global Long/Short Fund is a single account managed by Boston Partners balancing long and short portfolio strategies seeking long term growth of capital. This product is not risk neutral.

The value of small and mid capitalization securities may be more volatile than those of larger issuers. Investments in foreign issuers may be more volatile than in the U.S. market. Investments in emerging markets may increase this risk.
