Optiver Europe

Optiver’s first office in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, began on the Dutch Options Exchange (AEX) with a single floor trader in 1986. Today, our Amsterdam office trades on all major European exchanges. 

Optiver operates as a market maker in the Netherlands and the rest of Europe, providing liquidity in various equities and derivatives exchanges. Optiver is active in derivatives trading on Euronext Amsterdam as a primary market maker and competitive market maker. Optiver Amsterdam is one of the biggest players in the Euronext Cash segment (equities) and is active on all other European equities and derivatives platforms, such as the London Stock Exchange, Xetra, Eurex, Virt-X and Chi-X. 

Our team in Europe is growing every day. Today, Optiver has more than 350 employees in Amsterdam, but new employees are welcomed into a large and well-functioning team on a regular basis. Our central location in the Netherlands offers a prime opportunity to take full advantage of the possibilities in the European markets.
