Former New York mayor Michael Bloomberg is weighing running as an independent in the US presidential race.

Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg acknowledged for the first time that he was weighing a 2016 presidential bid, two weeks after an adviser said he was exploring the possibility.

Mr. Bloomberg said he was “looking at all the options” regarding a potential bid for president as an independent candidate, according to a Monday report in the Financial Times.

“I’m listening to what candidates are saying and what the primary voters appear to be doing,” Mr Bloomberg told the newspaper.

He called the current presidential campaign “distressingly banal” and “an outrage and an insult to the voters.”

He said he would have to start putting his name on state ballots as soon as March.

The comments are the first direct confirmation that the billionaire businessman is seriously weighing a 2016 bid.

Mr Bloomberg, a Democrat-turned-Republican-turned independent, served as mayor of New York City until 2013. Prior to that, he created Bloomberg L.P. — a data broker and media outlet that specialises in financial news and information.

The last time the country elected a candidate for president who was not a Democrat or a Republican was prior to the Civil War.
