Russell Investments ETFs. Where investing meets imagination

Russell Investments has unveiled its new ETF platform with a bold advertising campaign titled ‘Imagine,’ aimed at boosting brand awareness among consumer investors.

As a pioneer in the multi-manager model, Russell Investments sought to differentiate itself in the competitive ETF market. The campaign challenged investors to imagine their retirement futures powered by Russell Investments’ high-quality, globally informed investment strategies.

Built on insights from internal stakeholder interviews with our team, the campaign aligned with the firm’s brand promise: “Invest without boundaries.” Aspirational visuals portrayed investors in vibrant future scenarios, breaking away from traditional financial imagery.

Animated ads and strategic media placements amplified the message, culminating in a high-profile launch event where the Russell Investments team rang the closing bell at Nasdaq.

The campaign successfully positioned Russell Investments as a forward-thinking leader in retirement investing, sparking consumer interest and engagement with its ETF offerings.
