NEW YORK, May 30, 2024 (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 the Company is set to be added to the Russell 2000, Russell 3000, and Russell Microcap Indexes as part of the annual reconstitution of the Russell stock indexes, effective at the US market open on Monday, July 1, 2024. A preliminary list of Russell 3000 Index additions, including Roadzen, was posted by FTSE Russell on May 24, 2024.
Rohan Malhotra, founder and CEO, commented, “We are delighted to be included in the prestigious Russell indexes during our first year as a Nasdaq-listed company. The inclusion in the Russell should increase overall institutional awareness and investor exposure of our company as we execute on our mission to transform global auto insurance using AI. Our goal is important as auto insurance is one of the leading contributors to inflation in the US, with rates continuing to rise for consumers and businesses alike. We believe this dynamic can be countered using our technology, which employs artificial intelligence to make drivers safer, resolve claims in real-time and reduce fraud, leading to fairer premiums for all drivers.”
Russell indexes are widely used by investment managers and institutional investors for index funds and as benchmarks for active investment strategies. Approximately $10.5 trillion in assets are benchmarked against Russell’s US indexes. Russell indexes are part of FTSE Russell, a leading global index provider. Membership in the US all-cap Russell 3000® Index, 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. FTSE Russell determines membership for its Russell indexes primarily by objective, market-capitalization rankings, and style attributes.
