Saxo Markets, the online trading and investment specialist that connects people to investment opportunities in global capital markets, has recently moved into its new Grade A office space in CapitaSpring, the newly completed integrated project in Singapore and the first built project in Southeast Asia by renowned Danish architect Bjarke Ingels.

To mark the occasion, Saxo's CEO and Founder, Kim Fournais was in town to grace the office opening event. He is joined by Camilla Dahl Hansen, Chief Saxo Experience Officer and Mette Ingeman Pedersen, Group CFO, who are also part of Saxo's global Executive Team.

Saxo Markets has operated in Singapore since 2006 and serves as the APAC headquarters of Saxo Bank in Copenhagen, Denmark. As a provider of multi-asset trading and investment, Saxo's vision is to enable people to fulfil their financial aspirations and make an impact.

"CapitaSpring, designed by the socially-conscious Danish architect Bjarke Ingels and his team, is a great fit for Saxo. It offers us not just the Danish connection but also a chance to maintain a consistent Saxo look and feel that is in line with our HQ in Copenhagen, which we want for our offices globally. Importantly, we want to provide a people-centric workspace focussed on promoting collaboration, overall wellbeing and an inclusive environment, all of which are important for our team of over a hundred Saxo employees in Singapore," Adam Reynolds, APAC CEO, Saxo Markets, comments.

"In 2021, Saxo in Singapore reached the milestone of SGD 10 billion in clients' assets, driven by strong momentum in the market and more attractive products that met the needs of our clients, and we are truly grateful for the support and trust our clients placed in us. Our big focus this year is to make an even bigger push into the investor space, with the upcoming launches geared towards meeting the evolving investing needs of Singaporeans. The new office opening kickstarts an exciting year as we continue to double down on our strategy to become the most trusted investing partner our clients can turn to in order to make informed investment decisions," Reynolds adds.

With the overall floor space at 14,000 square feet, the new office offers 15 percent more floor space compared to Saxo's previous office at Samsung Hub. With better design and space utilisation, the premium office space in the heart of the city offers green spaces in abundance, state-of-the-art facilities, while promising views of the stunning Singapore skyline.

Notably, the office also features many art pieces curated in conjunction with Copenhagen, where Saxo owns one of the largest corporate art collections in Denmark. Other key features include meeting rooms with operable walls which can be opened to provide an external seminar space for up to 80 pax seated, as well as a Wellness Room with a day bed to meet the needs of new mothers, or a rest area for those who are unwell.
