Company overview

BGC Technology A Limited was incorporated on 31 July 2009 as a private limited company and was dissolved on 3 December 2019. Originally named eSpeed A Limited, it changed its name in July 2013. The company was registered at One Churchill Place, Canary Wharf, London E14 5RD and carried out the activity classified under SIC code 64999 (financial intermediation not elsewhere classified).

It maintained dormant accounts throughout the majority of its existence, with the last set of dormant accounts made up to 31 December 2017.
