About JGRSX
John Hancock Global Shareholder Yield Fund Class R6 is a global large-stock value mutual fund designed to generate income and some capital appreciation by investing primarily in equity securities of dividend-paying companies around the world. The fund allocates at least 80% of its assets to these equities, with a particular emphasis on large-cap stocks that are considered attractively valued or exhibit slower growth characteristics compared to other global large-cap stocks. While the portfolio primarily focuses on developed markets, it also includes exposure to emerging markets, providing broad geographical diversification. The investment strategy targets opportunities across multiple sectors and regions, seeking to enhance yield for shareholders. At least 40% of the fund's net assets are typically invested outside the United States. This approach positions the fund as a significant player in delivering global dividend income solutions for investors seeking consistent payouts alongside the potential for modest long-term growth in the equity market environment.
