"The feedback we've received in response to these programs has been overwhelmingly positive," said Ken Fisher, founder and CEO of Fisher Investments. "Our clients are generally savvy investors who appreciate the opportunity to learn more about capital markets and portfolio management. However, these workshops are valuable for investors of any experience level looking to learn more about financial markets in a relaxed setting. Our clients expect us to be informative, but are often surprised to find how entertaining these sessions can actually be, given the passion and experience of our staff."
