If an international organisation is going to have a presence in Europe, it is likely they will secure
London offices.
This is according to the British Council for Offices (BCO), which stated that large, global companies have significant requirements that can sometimes only be met by offices in London.
BCO chief executive Richard Kauntze highlighted corporate space in the centre of the capital as especially meeting the needs of firms.
If organisations are going to trade in Europe, "they are going to be in London and they need a high-quality building and someone who is going to build it for them. They are only going to be in the centre", he claimed.
Mr Kauntze pointed to a number of London City office buildings like the Heron Tower and the in-construction The Shard as providing business space, while there are also developments in Midtown and the West End.
Reuters recently reported that Heron Tower had welcomed four new tenants, one of which was Lithuanian bank Snoras.
The bank - advised by Mellersh & Harding - took around 13,000 sq ft of space on the entire 20th floor at 110 Bishopsgate EC2.
