8 terms
russell 2000 financial
"named to the preliminary additions list for the Russell 2000®, Russell 3000® Indexes"
An index that tracks the performance of roughly 2,000 smaller publicly traded U.S. companies, ranked by their size measured in market value. Investors use it like a thermometer for the small‑company segment of the stock market: it shows how that part of the market is doing, serves as a common benchmark for small‑cap funds, and helps gauge risk appetite and economic trends that often affect smaller businesses more than large ones.
russell 3000 financial
"named to the preliminary additions list for the Russell 2000®, Russell 3000® Indexes"
A broad stock-market index made up of the roughly 3,000 largest publicly traded U.S. companies, ranked by their total market value. It serves as a wide “basket” of American stocks that reflects the overall performance of the U.S. equity market, so investors use it as a benchmark or to gain broad exposure through index funds and ETFs—similar to watching an economy-sized shopping cart to judge how an entire store is doing.
registered direct offering financial
"priced an $8 million registered direct offering of ordinary shares"
A registered direct offering is a way for a company to sell new shares of its stock directly to select investors with regulatory approval. This method allows the company to raise funds quickly and efficiently without needing a public auction, similar to offering exclusive access to a limited number of buyers. For investors, it often provides an opportunity to purchase shares at a favorable price, while giving the company immediate access to capital.
gap insurance financial
"partnered with a top-10 global carmaker to deliver GAP insurance across the U.K."
Gap insurance is a policy that covers the difference between what a borrower still owes on a loan or lease and the insurance payout if the vehicle is stolen or totaled, when that payout is less than the remaining balance. For investors, it matters because it reduces credit losses and residual-value risk for lenders and lease companies—think of it as a safety net that prevents a shortfall when an asset’s market value drops faster than the loan balance.
adas technical
"won a $2.5 million contract to deploy six-camera ADAS across a 3,000-truck fleet"
Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) are electronic systems in vehicles that assist the driver with safety tasks. Examples include automatic emergency braking, lane keeping assist, and adaptive cruise control. These systems use sensors and cameras to improve vehicle safety.
telematics technical
"Roadzen’s pioneering work in telematics, generative AI, and computer vision"
Telematics is the technology that collects, transmits and analyzes data from vehicles or remote equipment—such as location, speed, engine status and sensor readings—using GPS, cellular networks and onboard computers. For investors it matters because telematics turns physical assets into data-rich services, enabling new revenue streams (like usage-based insurance, fleet optimization, or predictive maintenance), reducing costs and improving risk visibility much like a fitness tracker does for health.
generative ai technical
"Roadzen’s pioneering work in telematics, generative AI, and computer vision"
Generative AI is a type of computer technology that can create new content, like text, images, or music, on its own. It’s important because it can produce realistic and useful material quickly, which could change how we create art, write stories, or even develop new products. Think of it as a smart robot that can invent and produce things almost like a human.
embedded insurance financial
"deliver seamless, embedded insurance experiences."
Embedded insurance is a type of coverage that is integrated directly into a product or service, often during the purchase process, making it easy and seamless for consumers to access protection. For example, when buying a new car or booking travel, insurance options may be included automatically. This approach matters to investors because it can expand market reach, increase sales, and create new revenue streams for companies offering these integrated protections.

Roadzen’s accelerating commercial momentum and continued AI leadership across products and geographies underpin the company’s growth and subsequent inclusion in the Russell indexes

NEW YORK, May 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Roadzen Inc. (Nasdaq: RDZN) ("Roadzen" or the "Company"), a global leader in AI at the convergence of insurance and mobility, today announced that it has been named to the preliminary additions list for the Russell 2000®, Russell 3000® Indexes as part of the 2026 annual reconstitution of the Russell US Indexes. FTSE Russell published the preliminary list after the close of US markets on May 22, 2026. The reconstituted indexes take effect after the US market close on Friday, June 26, 2026.

Membership in the Russell 3000® Index includes automatic inclusion in the small-cap Russell 2000® Index and the applicable growth and value style indexes. Approximately $11 trillion in assets are currently benchmarked against Russell's US indexes, making the annual reconstitution one of the most consequential index events in the US equity calendar.

Roadzen's index inclusion coincides with a period of sustained commercial and product momentum across its global businesses. Since the start of the current fiscal year on April 1, 2026, key highlights include:

  • Underwriting capacity in the U.S. On April 30, 2026, Roadzen secured a letter of intent for a $30 million insurance capacity commitment from a leading U.S. carrier to bring AI to commercial auto insurance, backed by over $50 million in producer demand. The program is expected to scale to $50 million over three years and contribute approximately $6 million in revenue in Year 1.
  • Fleet safety scale. drivebuddyAI won a $2.5 million contract to deploy six-camera ADAS across a 3,000-truck fleet, with expansion potential to 10,000 vehicles over five years.
  • India claims mandate. VehicleCare secured a major claims mandate from one of India's largest insurers, expected to generate over $10 million in annual revenue.
  • OEM embedded insurance. Roadzen partnered with a top-10 global carmaker to deliver GAP insurance across the U.K. — its second major European OEM win following its September 2025 continental Europe partnership. Global Insurance Management, Roadzen's wholly owned U.K. subsidiary, secured several new contracts representing $2.5 million in projected annual revenue.
  • Claims-to-repair infrastructure. VehicleCare partnered with global auto parts network TISAG-TEMOT to build integrated claims-to-repair infrastructure in India.
  • IP expansion. drivebuddyAI was granted a patent for real-time detection and geo-mapping of hazardous road conditions, adding to its growing portfolio of AI vision IP.
  • Capital markets activity. On May 4, 2026, Roadzen priced an $8 million registered direct offering of ordinary shares to fund continued growth and execution to support the Company's commercial pipeline.

Rohan Malhotra, Founder and CEO of Roadzen, said: “Inclusion in the Russell indexes will help us drive broader institutional awareness and expand investor exposure on the back of continued commercial and AI innovation momentum across our global markets. We are grateful for the trust of our shareholders as we execute on our mission to transform auto insurance through artificial intelligence."

FTSE Russell determines membership for its Russell US Indexes primarily by objective, market-capitalization rankings and investability criteria, with rank day falling on April 30, 2026. The 2026 reconstitution marks the first year Russell US Indexes transition to a semi-annual reconstitution schedule, with preliminary additions and deletions lists communicated beginning May 22, with updates on May 29, June 5, June 12, June 18, and June 26. The newly reconstituted indexes take effect after US market close on June 26, 2026.
