YEARBOOK & DIRECTORY
IRELAND: INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL SERVICES CENTRE
Welcome to the online edition of the Finance Dublin Yearbook, an annual publication of Finance Dublin. It complements the monthly publications, providing a forward-looking overview of key developments in Ireland as a financial services jurisdiction, and its vital parts, its companies and people, providing a 'Who's Who' and reference guide to those vital parts.
The Yearbook provides a 'shop window' of Ireland (ROI) as an international financial services jurisdiction. The Review & Outlook section of the 2026 annual E-paper edition, (forthcoming) profiles the Republic of Ireland's position as the EU's foremost 'common law' jurisdiction for finance and financial services, and will coincide with the launch of “Ireland for Law” at the end of April 2026 under the chairmanship of former Irish Taoiseach Enda Kenny.
In the second half of the year Finance Dublin has a packed editorial agenda that will feature deep dive reports in each issue on cutting edge developments within the Irish financial services industry this year including: The Tokenisation Revolution; Leasing – Aircraft and other assets; Securitisation; Loan Origination Funds & Private Credit; ETFs; Corporate Treasury; The S.I.U.; Finance Dublin Accountancy Survey 2026; Corporate & Investment Banking; Mergers & Acquisitions; Wealth Management Frontiers.
To be identified as "cutting edge topics" we are taking into account the scale of opportunities that exist for Yearbook firms for these individual markets - all of which are showing exciting and rapidly developing business opportunities - and that is why, the reports are being described as "Growth Opportunities 2026". The first overall preview of these will be in the forthcoming 2026 Yearbook.
The Yearbook is part of the annual cycle of Finance Dublin, reflecting the story of the past year and the outlook looking forward. Its Profile sections offer a substantive guide, providing dynamic profiles of people, companies, and institutions who are active in the jurisdiction, including FS companies, Professional Services Advisers, Market Infrastructures and State and Representative bodies.
The 2025 Epaper edition is the 32nd annual edition of the Yearbook, which was first published in 1992. If you have a subscription to Finance Dublin you can access the back issues here.

IFS COMPANIES GUIDE & DIRECTORY
The FINANCE DUBLIN International Financial Services companies Directory profiles hundreds of companies from over 50 jurisdictions operating from the Republic of Ireland. The profiles provide an unique compilation of the histories of these institutions, both in Ireland and in their home countries of origin. The search function in the online guide provides profiles of firms delivering cross border services across many financial services markets including banking, aircraft leasing, asset management, securities and investment fund services, structured finance, asset finance, insurance, reinsurance, life, and captive insurance from the jurisdiction.
IFS REGULATORY, STATE, AND REPRESENTATIVE BODIES
The Yearbook's listings of Regulatory, State and Representative Bodies are industry associations, and bodies, many of whom are affiliated to other EU bodies representing sectors of the international financial services (IFS) industry industry at EU level.
These entries are updated to reflect major events of significance that the bodies in the IFS section of the Yearbook have driven, and have been part of. These updates are based on articles in the columns of Finance Dublin during the course of each year and the annually updated information on the principal international financial services bodies and associations by Finance Dublin with the inputs of the relevant organisations.
