Evolution Markets Expands Green Business At Ten Bank Street
With the rapid growth of this field, Evolution Markets was sure to feel the space crunch. In fact, over the last five years the firm has grown 199 percent, according to a Deloitte & Touche USA LLP survey. It has recently signed a lease expansion and extension, giving the firm a total of 10,279 square feet through 2013. "When we decided to move our headquarters to Ten Bank Street, we were growing rapidly," says Andrew Ertel, President & CEO of Evolution Markets. "Our new home had to accommodate our new needs - namely, advanced infrastructure technology, a professional office environment from the lobby to our trading floor, the ability to expand and the right geographic location that would suit our employees in Westchester, Manhattan and Long Island. Ten Bank Street was the obvious choice." As a company leading the commercialization of environmental financial products since the firm was established in 2000, Evolution Markets assists governments and companies around the world in trading a variety of energy and environmental markets. The firm is also active in providing a broad range of investment banking services to the clean energy sector and provides guidance to corporations seeking to reduce their own carbon footprint. Evolution Markets does this on an international scale, developing projects in China, Latin America and Africa that have greatly reduced greenhouse gas emissions. "Our firm is truly global, with offices in San Francisco, Calgary, London, Prague and Bratislava, but our headquarters are here in White Plains," says Mr. Ertel. "The first-rate facilities and capabilities - especially the technology - available to us at Ten Bank Street have enabled us to bring together our global enterprise efficiently and effectively to serve our clients."
