Who we are

Our Sydney operation was set up in 1996, and has grown rapidly since this time, with well-established teams in Trading, Information Technology and Business Operations. We trade on a range of markets, including Australia, Hong Kong, Taipei, Tokyo and Korea, and always make the most of any emerging opportunities in the Asia-Pacific region. We trade all the major indices in these markets and our portfolio boasts more than 60 equity derivatives. To be the best in the market we continuously develop state-of-the-art software, and source the most advanced technology. We are so serious about IT that, today, we employ one IT developer for every one trader.

At Optiver, we undertake the complex task of balancing calculated risk with long-standing experience, to make smart and profitable trades today – and into the future.

With over 160 colleagues, we trade throughout the Asia-Pacific region, across all asset classes. We are not only growing the number of products and markets we trade, we are also growing the number of our employees.
