The brand and division FTSE Russell was introduced in 2015, while integrating the indexing services of FTSE index series and Russell index series.[2] In the same year, LSEG sold Frank Russell Company's asset management division Russell Investments.[3][4] Also in 2015, FTSE Russell acquired the corporate data company Mergent.[5]
In December 2020, FTSE Russell announced that it would strip its indexes of eight Chinese companies in response to U.S. Executive Order 13959.[6]
On 2 March 2022, in response to the invasion of Ukraine by the Russian Federation and resultant sanctions, FTSE Russell removed all Russian securities from all FTSE Russell indexes.[7]
