Its London headquarters is at 1/F 36-38 Botolph Lane, London EC3R 8DE, and its Hong Kong office is at 21/F LKF29, 29 Wyndham Street, Central, Hong Kong. This dual presence reflects an intention to serve institutional clients across major financial time zones. GFO-X is a private company; no parent company, owner or stock exchange listing is indicated in the available evidence.
