Telehouse London started as a Banking DR centre, so would probably meet your needs. Otherwise, there's Interxion, which claims to have all sorts of security certifications. The other usual suspects are also available in London - Level3, Equinix, C&W, etc... Simon
As the CTO of a financial company with multiple data centers in London, I would recommend Equinix Slough (or London 4) site. They have a website setup just for Financial firms. http://financial.equinix.com/ I've got space in both Telehouse and Equinix and would recommend Equinix for someone looking for full service collocation and Telehouse to someone who is looking for network interconnection.

Philip- I'm only really familiar with my employer's facilities: Savvis has data centers in London, Slough, and Reading with good exchange connectivity*. There is a financial-firm oriented microsite at http://financial.savvis.net/ , but beware the annoying* embedded video. You can look at http://www.savvis.net/en-US/Industries/Financial/Pages/Home.aspx for more info, too.

The C&W space is certainly secure and is good if you only ever want to use C&W but try and get anything else there and you'll have a hard time. -- Leigh

Have a look at Telecity* too, DCs in London, Manchester and Dublin, others spread out over Europe. Not just colo but a bunch of services too if you need them. They already serve some financial customers as well! * I work for them in Italy, standard disclaimer apply Cheers, ]\/[arco -- I'm Winston Wolf, I solve problems.

Cable and Wireless (who I work for) and COLT (who I used to work for). The only other place worth considering is Equinix but from a proximity viewpoint they are just too far away from the square mile. Regards, Neil. -- Neil J. McRae -- Alive and Kicking. neil@DOMINO.ORG
Is there still the Global Crossing place on the junction of New Oxford Street and Tottenham Court Road? -- Leigh Porter -----Original Message----- From: Neil J.
