EBIX SET TO
JOIN RUSSELL 2000 INDEX Tuesday
June 17, 1:28 pm ET ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Ebix,
Inc. (NASDAQ:EBIX - News), a leading international developer
and supplier of software and e-commerce solutions to
the insurance industry, today announced that it is set
to join the broad-market Russell 2000 and Russell 3000
Indexes when Russell Investments reconstitutes its comprehensive
set of U.S. and global equity indexes on June 27, according
to a preliminary list of additions posted Friday on
www.russell.com.
Annual reconstitution of Russell's U.S. indexes captures
the 4,000 largest U.S. stocks as of the end of May,
ranking them by total market capitalization. Membership
in the Russell 3000, which remains in place for one
year, means automatic inclusion in the large-cap Russell
1000 Index or small-cap Russell 2000 Index as well as
the appropriate growth and value style indexes. Russell
determines membership for its equity indexes primarily
by objective, market-capitalization rankings and style
attributes. The Russell 3000 also serves as the U.S.
component to the Russell Global Index, which Russell
launched last year.
Russell indexes are widely used by investment managers
and institutional investors for index funds and as benchmarks
for both passive and active investment strategies. An
industry-leading $4.4 trillion in assets currently are
benchmarked to them. These investment tools originated
from Russell's multi-manager investment business in
the early 1980s when the company saw the need for a
more objective, market-driven set of benchmarks in order
to evaluate outside investment managers.
Real-time market analysis on the Russell 3000 and other
Russell Indexes is available at www.russell.com/Indexes/performance/real_time_market_analysis.asp.
About Russell
Russell Investments aims to improve financial security
for people by providing strategic advice, world-class
implementation, state-of-the-art performance benchmarks,
and a range of institutional-quality investment products.
With more than $213 billion in assets under management,
Russell serves individual, institutional and advisor
clients in more than 40 countries. Russell provides
access to some of the world's best money managers. It
helps investors put this access to work in corporate
defined benefit and defined contribution plans, and
in the life savings of individual investors. Headquartered
in Tacoma, Wash., Russell has principal offices in Amsterdam,
Auckland, Johannesburg, London, Melbourne, New York,
Paris, San Francisco, Seoul, Singapore, Sydney, Tokyo
and Toronto. For more information on Russell indexes,
