Fisher Investments Nears Completion of New Office Project in Camas, WA



WOODSIDE, CA.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Fisher Investments, a leading, independent investment management company, recently announced it is nearing completion of the first phase of a new office complex located in Camas, Washington.

The office is the third of Fisher Investments’ permanent US locations. The other offices are in San Mateo, CA and Woodside, CA.

The new Camas building is a five-story structure, located on about 200-acres on the south side of Southeast 20th Street. The facility is approximately 150,000 square feet and can house up to 800 employees. Roughly 400 Fisher Investments employees already work out of three satellite locations in nearby Vancouver.

The new facility took approximately 11 months to construct and the firm hopes to have all of its Washington employees moved into the building by the end of the year.

CEO Ken Fisher (top right photo) said, “Our Washington office is a critical part of our organization, and we expect to continue growing our presence there.”

He continued, “It’s good for my employees because Washington doesn’t burden them with a state income tax (unlike California), it’s good for Camas because it moves our employees into the local community, and it’s good for the economy because it creates new high-paying jobs. We’re happy to be there. We like Camas a lot.”

Fisher Investments plans on maintaining its locations in California, but has made no decisions on moving its global headquarters from Woodside, CA. However, the firm continues to hire at all locations. For more information on career opportunities, visit http://www.fishercareers.com.
