Abstract The transport, magnetic and thermodynamic properties of RuSr 2 GdCu 2 O 8 and related compounds are reviewed. These indicate uniform coexistence of superconductivity (T c =46K) and ferromagnetism (T M =132K) in which the former arises in the CuO 2 planes and the latter in the RuO 2 planes. The earliest data indicated a typical underdoped cuprate with local Ru moment ferromagnetism, the absence of pairbreaking and transport properties dominated by the CuO 2 planes. However, recent results suggest a more complex scenario of itinerant ferromagnetism and exchange coupling between the CuO 2 and RuO 2 layers.
