Managers and Styles
When it comes right down to it, Russell does one thing - we are a manager of managers. We research money managers and blend the best of them together. This is equally true whether the service we provide is pure consulting or investment management.
Our funds provide investment programs of all types and sizes with access to the same strategies used by large, sophisticated pension funds. These solutions use managers and diversification structures similar to those we recommend to our consulting clients. The following chart shows the Russell Multi-Manager Sector Funds and their respective styles.
