Canary Wharf Group announces today that Saxo, a global leader in online trading and investing, has renewed its commitment to its London base at Canary Wharf’s recently modernised 40 Bank Street.
Saxo, which has called Canary Wharf home for 16 years, has taken a direct lease of 10,000 sq ft for 7 years with CWG on the 26th floor of 40 Bank Street. 40 Bank Street has recently undergone extensive modernisation from award-winning architects, Stiff + Trevillion, providing an amenity-rich environment in order to attract the world class customers including Citi, Herbert Smith Freehills, IPC Systems, Begbies Traynor and Delta Capita.
Customers such as Saxo continue to be drawn to the extraordinary environment that has been created at Canary Wharf with a range of amenities and activities to suit everyone. 40 Bank Street is the ideal London hub, attracting the best talent for growing international businesses such as Saxo. In addition to the building being at the heart of global business, the building is surrounded by 20 acres of green spaces, over 80 cafes, bars and restaurants, alongside a wide array of amenities including open-water swimming, go kart racing and an award-winning arts and events programme. It also benefits from incredible connections to the whole city, including the new Elizabeth line.
Katie Oliphant, Managing Director – Offices at Canary Wharf Group said: “We are delighted that Saxo have decided to recommit to Canary Wharf at 40 Bank Street. 40 Bank Street provides high quality, sustainable, flexible workspace, and is a fantastic base for companies such as Saxo to bring together their people and use the broader Canary Wharf ecosystem to support their ability to deliver for their clients.”
Charles White-Thomson, UK CEO at Saxo said: “We are very happy to have reaffirmed our commitment to Canary Wharf for a further 7 years. Not only does this position us in the heart of London’s financial district but fantastic accessibility and an ever-growing list restaurants, bars and services makes this the perfect destination for our employees and to meet with our clients.”
