Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed  announced that Atlanta-based Equifax Kasim-Reed, a global insights company and multinational leader in consumer, commercial and workforce information solutions, has signed a multi-year lease to expand its offices into 100,000 square-feet of space at One Atlantic Center (OAC) in the heart of midtown. The expansion is expected to generate over $75.8 million of economic impact as a result of Equifax’s $17 million investment in the project.

“I am pleased that Equifax, one of Atlanta’s premier home-grown companies, will deepen its commitment to our city through additional investment and growth. As CEO, Rick Smith has demonstrated his dedication to supporting the success of our city while also building a successful and innovative company,” said Mayor Reed. “Over the past decade, Equifax has transformed itself from a credit bureau to a global data and analytics company, contributing to Atlanta’s strong and growing FinTech sector. Forward-looking, technology-driven companies are choosing Atlanta as the place to expand their businesses and add well-paying, family-supporting jobs.”
