Russell Index Country Guidebook Commentary and Review
This commentary provides a review of 2012 global markets as reported in the recently published Russell Indexes Country Guidebook and to provide further insights into certain countries' market risks.
Russell Index Country Guidebook
Russell commits substantial research time and effort to understanding each and every country that its indexes cover worldwide. The Russell Index Country Guidebook provides clients with insights into the factors considered in defining a country's risk classification as "developed," "emerging" or "frontier."
Greece: Re-emerged (PDF) Watch the video
Greece has been a world financial concern since at least 2009 when levels of public debt were revealed to be unsustainable. Since 2010, Greece has been on the three-year path specified by Russell's global indexes methodology towards possible reclassification as an emerging market. During our 2013 global market risk reviews, Greece failed our risk assessments as a developed market for a third consecutive year. Therefore, effective with June 2013 index reconstitution, Russell will reclassify Greece as an emerging market.
Grexit: Response to the potential exit of Greece from the European Monetary Union (PDF)
We are increasingly concerned about market conditions in Greece, which since 2001 has been designated a developed market within the Russell Global Index (RGI) country classification system. Given the escalating market uncertainty in Greece and the difficulty of forecasting future political outcomes, this research note will seek to clarify some of the conditions under which we may implement Russell's financial crisis rule to remove Greece from the index.
