Trading Tour: UBS Trading Floor in Stamford is Gigantic

With 1,400 seats, 2,000 computers and 5,000 monitors, the UBS trading floor is noted by the Guinness Book of World Records as the largest single trading floor in the world.  The floor is home to traders, sales traders, quants, technology support, executives and others among its various groups, which include fixed income, commodities, currencies, money markets, derivatives, equities, international trading, algorithmic trading, direct market access, program trading and more.

UBS does more than 1,689,000 transactions a day. The firm deals in almost every asset class and trades across almost every region. That is a lot of testosterone in one room, then again, it is a big room.
