Italy’s leading investment bank, Mediobanca, will move into the fourth floor of 62 Buckingham Gate, and will join a growing list of finance businesses operating in the heart of Victoria, reports Land Securities.
They will be taking 50,000 sq ft, which means that the building is now 96% let.
In addition, international sport, entertainment and communications group Chime has committed to 25,000 sq ft on the third floor as part of their creation of a Victoria campus.
Today’s announcement follows the news last month that the fast-growing financial technology company WorldRemit had taken 25,000 sq ft at 62 Buckingham Gate, adding to the building’s international occupier mix which includes Rolls Royce and Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
Kaela Fenn-Smith, Head of Commercial at Land Securities, said: “62 Buckingham Gate is playing a significant role in the continued transformation of Victoria which, as these lettings to Chime and Mediobanca demonstrate, is an increasingly attractive destination for both the financial and media sectors. We look forward to welcoming both these businesses to 62 Buckingham Gate.”
