Fantastic, I worked in the city from the late 80s and until last year and dated somebody who worked on the LIFFE floor in the early 90s . I love watching old film footage of London from the 60s, 70s and 80s. Thanks so much, I thoroughly enjoyed this.

I worked in the city for over 20 years, loved every minute of it. My Brother was a trader on Liffe in the 80s

I love seeing footage from the 80s. I miss some of the buildings and also the walkways above the road level that wrapped round the buildings.

Glad to have been part of it, thanks for posting Ruti

It was a liffe edited video that was bought by myself back in these good times....I survived 13yrs in two exchanges....then APT came...

Great memories. What a place.

Well surprised to see this posted up but what a nice reminder of a fun place filled with amazing characters. Thank you Ruth for posting this. Happy memories.

~ Glad you like it........was an old vhs kept in a draw for years!! Good old technology eh? ~

i was a bond trader at a bulge bracket US investment bank for 20 years and dealt with the LIFFE floor but they would front-run the hell out of us shamelessly so we were much better off when it went electronic and the scalpers could no longer rip us off. electronic DTB (Deutsche Termin Bourse) was much better for executing bond futures trades than the open outcry pit was. the LIFFE brokers were a great laugh in the pub though, I'll give them that

such a great video! Thanks a lot

Thanks so much for sharing this!

and then along came Eurex....

And Steve Rainbow of course

story of my life, lol

Do you have details of who this film was made by at all?

Haha Barbara, I'm afraid you're preaching to the converted here!!! You'll not sell that story here I'm afraid!!!

I worked there. State street. I wonder what average salary was?

Always thought it's pronounced as LEE-FFE.
