Annual Russell indexes reconstitution captures the 4,000 largest US stocks as of April 28, ranking them by total market capitalization. Membership in the US all-cap Russell 3000â Index, which remains in place for one year, means automatic inclusion in the large-cap Russell 1000® Index or small-cap Russell 2000â Index as well as the appropriate growth and value style indexes. FTSE Russell determines membership for its Russell indexes primarily by objective, market-capitalization rankings and style attributes.
"Inclusion in the broadly referenced Russell index will bring us increased exposure to a larger audience of potential new investors and is a great next step in the evolution and growth of Kingsway," said John T. Fitzgerald, President and Chief Executive Officer of Kingsway Financial Services. "By continuing to grow and improve our portfolio of businesses both organically and by acquisition through our Search Xcelerator program, we seek to realize attractive returns on the capital we invest and ultimately deliver attractive returns for our shareholders."
