Fidelity Mandates Five Days in Office, Ending Hybrid Policy

Fidelity Investments, the world’s third-largest investment manager, will require thousands of its US employees to come into the office five days a week, ending a more generous policy that allowed them to work remotely half the month.

The new mandate, which takes effect in September, coincides with the asset manager’s expansion into new offices in the Boston Seaport District from its longtime headquarters downtown.
