SouthState Corporation has been added to several key Russell indexes, including the Russell 1000 Index, Russell 1000 Value Index, and Russell 1000 Dynamic Index. This inclusion signifies a notable increase in the company's market capitalization and overall scale, moving it into a larger category of publicly traded companies.
Concurrently, SouthState was also added to the Russell Midcap Index and Russell Midcap Value Index. These rebalancings are part of the annual reconstitution of the Russell indexes, which track the performance of various market segments.
As a result of its growth, SouthState Corporation was dropped from the Russell 2000 Index, Russell 2000 Value Index, Russell 2000 Dynamic Index, and Russell 2000 Value-Defensive Index. This shift from small-cap to mid-cap and large-cap oriented indexes reflects the company's successful strategic expansion and increased asset base.
Inclusion in larger indexes typically leads to greater visibility among institutional investors and can influence investment flows, as many passive funds track these benchmarks. This reclassification underscores SouthState's evolution into a more prominent regional banking powerhouse following its recent strategic initiatives and acquisitions.
