Wealth management giant Vanguard is moving into a newly built 91-acre campus in University City after managed health insurance company Centene abruptly backed away from its billion-dollar plans to locate there in 2022.

The Pennsylvania-based investment company announced the purchase of the 70,000 square-foot facility at 2405 Governor Hunt Road on Tuesday. Vanguard’s new campus is expected to open in 2025.

Vanguard opened its first Charlotte office in 1997 and employs more than 2,400 people in the region. The company offers investments, advice, and retirement services to tens of millions of clients around the world.

The Charlotte facility includes new office space, along with such amenities as dedicated collaboration spaces, a conference center, full-service cafeteria, outdoor eating and walking areas, EV charging stations and a fitness center.

A Vanguard spokeswoman declined to disclose the purchase price for the property.

In 2020, St. Louis-based Centene detailed plans to build its East Coast headquarters in Charlotte and bring 3,200 jobs to the area. But a number of factors forced the company to abandon those plans.
