Rathbones, one of the UK’s leading wealth and asset management groups, is pleased to take a significant step in establishing a presence in the EU with the appointment of Dolores Geaney as Managing Director, Rathbones in Ireland, subject to regulatory approval.
Based in Dublin, Rathbones in Ireland will strengthen Rathbones’ international capabilities in support of its growth ambitions and enable it to service both new and existing clients in the EU.
Dolores, who brings with her 30 years of experience in global financial services, including leadership roles at Davy, Investec and most recently with Wells Fargo International, will be central to developing new relationships across local and expatriate networks, including intermediaries, once approvals are in place.
Camilla Stowell, CEO of Wealth at Rathbones said: “Establishing a presence in Dublin is an important part of our strategy to build our international offering in support of growth and serve clients wherever they are. Dolores brings the strong leadership and client focus we need to establish strong foundations in Ireland and Europe as we progress through regulatory approvals.”
Dolores said: “I’m delighted to lead Rathbones’ European initiative. Our focus is on building a high-quality platform for clients and partners, working closely with colleagues across the Group to deliver Rathbones’ investment and wealth management services across the EU, subject to regulatory approval.”
Rathbones is continuing to engage with the Central Bank of Ireland and will issue an update on progress as appropriate.
