An FT Spokesperson has confirmed the title is in talks to return to its former home.

The Financial Times is 'in talks' to return to its former home, Bracken House in the City of London.

The FT is rumoured to be returning to Bracken House in 2018.

A spokesperson for the title said, "We can confirm the FT is in talks to return to its former home of Bracken House in 2018.

"There is rich history and symbolism in this move. The building is named after the FT’s founder Lord Brendan Bracken. It was originally designed by the leading English architect Sir Albert Richardson in the late 1950s to house the FT’s expanding international news organisation. Distinct pink Hollington sandstone from Staffordshire was used as building material to match the colour of the FT’s pages.

"Prior to our relocation, Bracken House will undergo an extensive refurbishment and will be tailor made to meet the needs of a modern media organisation, providing a strong foundation for the FT’s future."

The Financial Times first set up home at Bracken House in 1959.

The title then moved to Number One Southwark Bridge, in 1989.

 

Bracken House is named after Brendan Bracken, former owner of The Financial Times.
