I am advised that the Register of Irish Collective Asset Management Vehicles (ICAVs) is maintained by the Central Bank of Ireland and questions about this Register can be directed to the Minister for Finance. The Companies Registration Office (CRO) is required to de-register companies who have registered as ICAVs with the Central Bank. During 2021 one such company was de-registered by the CRO for this reason. Undertakings for Collective Investment in Transferable Securities (UCITS) are registered by the CRO and file their annual returns with the Central Bank. I understand that there are currently 172 UCITS registered with the CRO.
