  • Value indexes measure the value segment of the U.S. equity universe, which represents companies that are considered less expensive to the overall market, as defined by Russell's leading style methodology.
  • Net returns / values are calculated to provide applicable returns to foreign investors who are subject to a foreign tax withholding on dividends received.
