Top Japanese Bank takes 20 year lease in the City of London
Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation has signed a twenty year lease for 160,000 sq ft at the Broadgate Estate in the City of London.
The deal will see SMBCE, one of Japan’s leading banks, take the first three floors of 100 Liverpool Street which is currently undergoing an extensive redevelopment by British Landlord.
The letting represents 37 per cent of the available office space at 100 Liverpool St which sits next to the entrance to the soon-to-open Crossrail station.
Head of Offices at British Land, Tim Roberts, said: “SMBCE’s decision to invest in Broadgate for the long term is not only a strong endorsement of London as a global city which remains attractive to international organisations as a place to do business, but of the wider campus and 100 Liverpool Street.
