Russell Investments former managing director rejoins the company.

Craig Ansley has decided to rejoin Russell on a permanent basis after being offered a new role on one of Russell's global research teams.
Ansley has been appointed Director, Capital Markets Research, starting mid-September.
Russell Investments New Zealand managing director Mark Blair says he is pleased Dr Ansley has agreed to return to Russell on a more permanent basis after working on a consulting basis for more than a year.
"This is a really good example of Russell identifying its most knowledgeable people and having them join our global efforts, regardless of geographic locations," Blair says.
Ansley became managing director in 1992 and later chairman and director of Consulting Practice Australasia before retiring from his full time commitments in July last year. During that time he consulted to most of New Zealand's large funds, including the NZ Superannuation Fund.
Ansley says he couldn't turn down the opportunity to become a fulltime researcher again, something he hasn't done since he left academia 15 years ago.
"However, the key factor is Russell Investments' commitment to reaffirming its position as the leading international research group in investment services," he says.
