Global Investing With Fisher Investments

Forecasting foreign markets can be tough for an individual investor. But Fisher Investments has invested globally for over 15 years. Our focus and core competency is global investing, and we believe Fisher Investments performance demonstrates our ability to navigate global markets successfully.

As a large money manager, we have a research department dedicated to understanding global markets with the goal of maximizing Fisher Investments performance. We use techniques to select foreign stocks and manage foreign investing costs and risks that may not be available to individual investors. Examples include:


World-class global research

To successfully invest globally with consistent performance, you must first understand what’s happening overseas—economically and politically—as well as keep tabs on local sentiment. We believe this is a nearly impossible undertaking for any single investor. Can one person stay abreast of interest rate moves in the US, as well as in the UK, Japan, China and the Euro Zone? What about impending foreign elections, the candidates, their platforms, and how they might impact local economies and markets? How is Japan’s banking sector different from America’s? How will country-specific trade regulations impact their economic health?

Fisher Investments’ research staff monitors hundreds of news sources globally each and every day. We produce detailed, proprietary analyses in their areas of country and sector expertise. We believe the breadth and depth of our global research is unique in our industry, and in our opinion it gives Fisher Investments a significant performance advantage over many other money managers.


Dynamic, strategic asset allocation

Though we believe strongly in the benefits of global investing, we’ll steer investors to a greater percentage of US stocks if we feel their performance will be greater than foreign, or vice versa. Unlike a foreign index fund, we have the flexibility to shift the weights of different foreign markets in our clients’ portfolios based on where we believe we’ll see the strongest performance.

Risk management underpins every decision we make for our clients—which is why we believe global investing is an important part of our investing strategy. We believe it’s one of the best ways to help our clients achieve their long term goals.

We strive for better performance with reduced risk. To get the benefit of Fisher Investments’ performance track record and expertise, and to learn more about how we can help you achieve your goals, please call 1-800-587-5512.
