Case Study: Shinhan Bank achieves a sustainable, high-performance London workplace with Oktra

Shinhan Bank launches 8 Bishopsgate office in 10 weeks with Oktra

Shinhan Bank, South Korea's oldest and largest banking firm, sought to establish a prestigious new London office to support its ambitious UK expansion. Their challenge was to create a workplace that embodied their global vision and facilitated growth within a tight ten-week timeframe. They turned to vendor Oktra for its expertise in complex, high-rise design and build solutions.

Oktra designed and delivered a sustainable, high-performance workplace on the 44th floor of 8 Bishopsgate. The solution included an impactful entrance, collaborative spaces, and client-facing suites, all designed to reflect Shinhan's brand and ambition while meeting stringent landlord and sustainability standards. The new office positions Shinhan Bank for sustained success and growth in the UK market, supporting its commitment to facilitate £2 billion of investment into the country’s financial services sector.
