About Russell Global Indexes

A world of possibilities
Russell Global Indexes provide institutional investors insight into complex global markets. Representing 98% of the investable universe, our global indexes reflect the performance of over 10,000 securities in 47 countries.
The Russell global-relative perspective
Russell research has shown that companies of similar capitalization tend to perform alike, regardless of location. That's why Russell Global Indexes use a single market cap break across the globe to determine whether a company is considered large cap or small cap. Distinctively, this global-relative view creates one large, diverse, investable universe of global securities.
Since today's investors are looking for the best-positioned companies worldwide, our global Indexes better represent how managers actually invest.
