Speaking ahead of the official opening yesterday, Minister Donohoe said: "TD Securities' decision to expand their operations in Ireland is a further sign of the global international financial services centre that we have built here, resulting in the creation of thousands of highly skilled jobs. TD Securities has been a part of the Irish financial landscape for over 20 years. It is very encouraging to see the continued expansion of the company in this way and I look forward to witnessing its growth into the future."
"With the natural growth of our business in Europe, we need to be where our clients are," said Peter Walker, Vice-Chair and Regional Head for Europe and Asia-Pacific, TD Securities.
