I can confirm for the Deputy that I have raised the matter with the Central Bank of Ireland and have received the following response in this regard:
The company in question was authorised under the Investment Intermediaries Act, 1995 on 26 May 2000. Its authorisation transferred on 1 November 2007 to the European Communities (Markets in Financial Instruments) Regulations 2007. The company is also authorised as a mortgage intermediary acting on behalf of its Parent entity, under the Consumer Credit Act, 1995 (as amended). Upon authorisation, the company concerned was granted an exemption under Part II, Section 8 of the Central Bank Act, 1971 to use the words bank and banking in its name.
