Investment management

At Russell Investments we believe that investors are more likely to achieve their objectives if their investment portfolios are structured to deliver consistent performance. Our multi-manager funds use some of the world's best managers who excel in their areas of expertise and combine their complementary processes to provide the highest level of diversification and discipline in your investment portfolio. We monitor and, when necessary, replace managers to provide a structure which captures our highest conviction ideas as conditions change. Our in-depth research of money managers and comprehensive knowledge of worldwide markets allows us to deliver exceptional strategies and insights to benefit our clients.

Investment consulting

Russell provides investment consulting services to over 150 institutional investors such as pension funds, insurance companies, charities, foundations, banks and other financial services companies in more than 39 countries. Collectively, we advise on assets in excess of £1.4 trillion.

Implementation services

Techniques pioneered by Russell Implementation Services are becoming increasingly accepted as the market standard in an industry demanding greater transparency and innovation. Russell is the industry leader in offering disciplined services such as transition management, passive currency overlay, agency currency execution, synthetic rebalancing and commission management. These services are customised to the specific needs of individual clients and are designed to reduce unintended risk and implementation costs.

Alternative investments

Russell's world-class manager research and innovative fund construction cover a range of alternative investment opportunities around the world, including real estate and private equities
(through Pantheon Ventures). With more than 30 years of experience in alternative investments, we offer a high-quality, well-diversified approach with flexibility and choices for institutional investors.

Indices

Russell Indexes offer institutional investors global equity benchmarks for numerous segments and countries including large and small cap. Russell has a long history of index innovation including the introduction of the now industry-standard float adjustment and multi-factor style methodology. Our global index represents 98% of the global equity market including approximately 10,000 stocks in 63 countries. The domestic U.S. equity component of the index is the leading institutional benchmark in the U.S. with over half of all institutional assets there using a Russell U.S. Index as their benchmark. Our globally consistent, transparent and objective index construction gives investors an accurate and comprehensive global equity benchmark.
