beneficial ownerregulatory
"By reason of rule 13d-3 under the act Boston Partners may be deemed to be a beneficial owner"
A beneficial owner is the person who ultimately owns or controls a financial asset or property, even if their name isn't directly on official documents. Think of it like someone who secretly holds the keys to a safe deposit box—others may appear to have access, but the true owner is the one who benefits from what's inside. Identifying beneficial owners helps ensure transparency and prevent illegal activities like money laundering or fraud.
Schedule 13Gregulatory
"This Schedule is being filed with respect to 7,635,145 shares of Cytek Biosciences, Inc."
A Schedule 13G is a formal document that investors file with the government when they acquire a large ownership stake in a company, usually for investment purposes rather than control. It helps keep the public informed about who owns significant parts of a company's shares, which can influence how the company is managed and how investors make decisions. Filing this schedule is important for transparency and understanding the ownership landscape of publicly traded companies.
sole voting powerfinancial
"Sole Voting Power 7,635,145.00"
Sole voting power is the exclusive right to cast votes attached to a shareholder’s stock without needing approval from anyone else. Like holding the only remote control for a TV, it lets that holder decide corporate matters such as board members, mergers, and policy changes, making it important to investors because it concentrates control and can strongly influence a company’s strategy and the value of its shares.
sole dispositive powerfinancial
"Sole Dispositive Power 7,635,145.00"
Sole dispositive power is the exclusive legal authority to decide what happens to a security — for example, whether to sell, transfer, or retain shares — without needing anyone else’s permission. Investors care because it signals who truly controls the economic outcome of an investment: like holding the only key to a safe, the holder can realize gains or losses and may trigger regulatory reporting, insider rules, or influence over corporate ownership.
discretionary accountfinancial
"held by Boston Partners on 06/30/2026 for the discretionary account of certain clients"
An account in which the account holder gives a broker or advisor authority to buy and sell securities on their behalf without asking for permission for each trade. Like handing someone the keys to your car to run errands, it lets a professional act quickly and make ongoing decisions for you; this matters to investors because it changes who controls trade timing, affects fees and tax reporting, and shifts responsibility for execution and record-keeping.
