The new office, located in the heart of London’s financial district, will enhance Options’ ability to provide localized services, ensuring that clients benefit from seamless engagement. Proximity to clients is a fundamental part of Options’ business model and since the pandemic in 2020, the firm has seen a significant increase in clients and partners relocating to the city. The expansion also reinforces the company’s dedication to driving innovation, strengthening client partnerships, and meeting the growing demand for its services in one of the world’s leading financial hubs.

This latest development follows Options’ recent global growth initiatives, including new office openings and expansion in Chicago, Hong Kong, Dubai, and Sydney. Each new location fortifies the company’s ability to deliver 24/7 support, low-latency connectivity, and world-class solutions to financial institutions worldwide.

Samuel Farmer, SVP EMEA commented: “London has always been at the heart of our operations, and the opening of our new office at 100 Bishopsgate is a testament to our long-term commitment to the region. Our London HQ in Pall Mall was strategically chosen for its proximity to our Buy-Side and Private Equity clients. As our business has evolved to also serve a significantly larger Sell-Side client base, including the top 40 global banks, we’re now expanding with a second office located within walking distance of many of these firms. This move aligns with our broader strategy of situating our teams close to our clients, enabling us to enhance the delivery of agile, high-performance solutions and strengthen partnerships across the board.”

With a growing global footprint and a reputation for cutting-edge technology solutions, Options continues to invest in its people, infrastructure, and innovation to support the evolving needs of financial markets. The new London office solidifies the company’s position as a trusted partner in the industry, delivering unparalleled expertise and service excellence.

Today’s news comes as the latest in a series of major milestones at Options, including its achievement of SOC compliance for 14 consecutive years and partnerships with BLOX Markets and Paget Brown.
