IG North America Establishes New tastytrade Office in Downtown Chicago

IG US Holdings, Inc. (IG North America) has announced the opening of its new headquarters in the Fulton Market district in downtown Chicago. Spanning 35,000 square feet, this new space is the home of tastytrade, a leading online equity broker, and also houses separate brand-new studios for the financial network tastylive.

Furthermore, tastytrade will demonstrate its commitment to the Chicago community by making an investment of $600K in the Greenwood Project, a non-profit organization dedicated to propelling Black and Latino college students into high-trajectory careers in financial services.

Both tastylive and tastytrade were established in Chicago by the co-founders of thinkorswim, Tom Sosnoff, and Scott Sheridan. In the middle of 2021, IG Group Holdings successfully completed its acquisition of tastytrade​ for a value of $1 billion.

JJ Kinahan, CEO of IG North America and President of tastytrade, stated: "We’re excited to double down on our commitment to Chicago. At IG North America, we believe opportunity can drive positive change. By partnering with Greenwood Project, we are not only investing in the future of talented Black and Latino students but also contributing to a more diverse and inclusive financial services industry."

Last month, Fazzaco reported that IG Group announced the appointments of new Chief Operating Officer and Chief Risk Officer, strengthening their leadership and expertise in the industry.
