Optiver was founded in 1986 with a single trader on the floor of the Amsterdam Stock Exchange
Although London and New York immediately spring to mind as the world’s financial capitals, Amsterdam has been shaping global finance for more than 400 years. In 1602, the Dutch capital became the seat of the world’s first stock exchange. Years later, Optiver put down roots in finance’s historical home with a vision of improving the world’s capital markets.
The Amsterdam experience
Amsterdam may be famous for the Van Gogh Museum, iconic Rembrandt portraits, canals and tulip stands, but look beyond these visitor favourites and you’ll find a city fuelled by culture and innovation. Small but mighty, the Dutch capital combines a village feel with an outsize global impact.
