Seven reasons to choose Russell

Improving financial security for people. That's our purpose. But we understand that financial security looks different for every client. At Russell, all of our capabilities, all of our strategies and all of our experience are designed to help you meet your specific investment goals.
We put industry-leading insight and expertise to work for you. Here are seven reasons why you should consider Russell:
We were founded in 1936, allowing us to apply more than 70 years of perspective to helping you invest with confidence.
We're one of the world authorities on people who manage money1. With more than three decades of money manager research experience and more dedicated manager research analysts than any other firm, we perform the vital work to keep your investment diversified and balanced, in pursuit of your goals.
We manage managers to bring you best-of-breed investments. Our goal is to provide consistent, above-average returns. That's why we actively monitor about 8,000 manager products, of which fewer than 9% earn our "hire" ranking. Fewer than 4% of researched money managers receive an assignment in a Russell fund.
Our research looks forward. Everyone studies performance. But performance tracking is, by definition, backwards-looking. That's why we held more than 5,200 meetings with money managers last year. We get to know managers well enough to see developing trends long before performance tracking will reveal them. Then we move swiftly and cost-effectively when changes are needed.
Our investments are based on decades of capital markets insight. We've experienced and evaluated global marketsand the people who make investment decisions in themthrough all sorts of cycles, trends and turnarounds. This perspective allows us to deliver you long-term strategies for your life savings.
We see the world clearly. Our family of transparent global indices, including the Russell 2000® Index, gives us a leader's perspective on markets. More U.S. institutional products and assets are benchmarked to Russell indices than to all other indices combined.
We stand for improving financial security for people. And that looks different for everyone. That's why our funds are designed to make it easier to custom tailor a portfolio for your individual needs.
Today, CAD $143.3 billion2 is managed by Russell worldwide. The clients we serve recognize the soundness of our philosophy, the consistency of our research and the objectivity of our portfolio management process.
