Metis Ireland now wholly owned by its staff and board

Metis Ireland is pleased to confirm it is now wholly owned by Metis Ireland management and board members. It had previously been jointly owned by staff and by Davy, which had acquired a 50 per cent stake in 2019. The transition in shareholding has been approved by the Central Bank of Ireland.

This approach follows an amicable agreement between Davy and Metis Ireland and aligns with the evolving strategies of both organisations. Both parties look forward to working together via the Davy Select platform.

Metis Ireland is now owned by Carl Widger (Managing Director), Tom Tierney (Chairman), Sinéad Clinton (Head of Compliance), Paddy O’Halloran (Head of Finance), Paddy Andrews (Private Client Manager) and Cian Callaghan (Private Client Manager).

Carl Widger, Managing Director of Metis Ireland, said:

“We would like to thank our colleagues in Davy for their valuable input to our business over the past few years and we look forward to continuing to work with Davy into the future with the support of our committed team of shareholders and staff.”

Ciaran O’Donoghue, Managing Director of Davy Select, said:

“We have great respect for the Metis Ireland team and though our strategies for our respective businesses have evolved we look forward to continuing to work closely with the Metis Ireland team through our Davy Select platform over the coming years.”
