IMC Enhances Its New York Operations with New Office for Systematic Equities

IMC Expands Its New York Presence

IMC, the global, research-driven quantitative trading firm, has announced a major expansion of its operations in New York City. This move involves establishing a new office that will function as the central hub for their Americas Systematic Equities business, reinforcing their established institutional sales and trading operations within the city.

The newly leased office, spanning over 35,000 square feet at 1095 6th Avenue, complements IMC's existing 250,000 square foot establishment located in the iconic Willis Tower in Chicago, which serves its U.S.-based options, futures, and ETF businesses. This strategic expansion is designed to support and optimize IMC's growth trajectory in the United States.

Kyle Gray, Managing Director of IMC U.S., stated, "IMC has a proud history of supporting equity and derivatives markets in major financial centers around the world. This investment in New York reflects our commitment to providing world-class service to market participants, particularly as we grow our presence in the U.S. Equities market."

With a vision of significantly enhancing its footprint in New York, IMC is not only expanding its physical presence but is also focusing on building a strong team. The firm plans to recruit local talent and is actively seeking senior positions related to the development of its Systematic Equities franchise. Additionally, there will be relocations from other IMC offices worldwide to bolster the New York team.

As the firm processes this transition, it anticipates continual growth in its New York team, particularly in areas of trading, technology, research, and client-facing operations. This expansion will further cement IMC's role in the New York financial ecosystem and represent a commitment to participation in the local community.
