Aviva Plc is searching for a new City of London headquarters as the U.K. insurer prepares to slash its office footprint.
The firm started looking for new offices in the financial district early last year, but shelved its plans once the pandemic hit, according to people familiar with the matter. It will now resume the search, but seek a smaller building than originally envisaged, the people said, asking not to be identified as the plans are private.
