River Run For River Watch…a “special” #MetisMorningRiverRun

As even the birds on the trees now know, every last Friday of the month Metis Ireland hosts the #MetisMorningRiverRun.

It’s a 5K run that starts at 7am on the button from St. Michaels Rowing Club and out along the riverbank for a lovely morning jaunt with no pressure on anyboAfter our run in September, Graham Burns, one of our regular supporters, came to us and said that his crew in CPL had a fantastic idea to host a run to support Limerick Suicide Watch (LSW) but rather than look at a whole new event could they “piggyback” on the established #MetisMorningRiverRun

Metis Ireland End of Quarter Team Building

Last Friday we at Metis Ireland had our, by this time well-known, End of Quarter Team Building Event.

Our day started with a photoshoot directed by lovely the Shauna from Morning Star Photography, we heard some of us are even thinking of career change?!

Luck and pluck can’t beat focus on evidence in long run

This month we were delighted to be asked to write a piece for The Sunday Times, looking at the value of evidence-based investing and how it compares to a traditional, active approach.

Day at the Races – Clonmel

On Thursday 3rd of October, Metis Ireland organised a ‘Day at the Races’ in Clonmel.

We started our day by gathering at the Donoughmore Club where we watched the Ireland v Russia match with plenty of coffee, tea and pastries that lovely Eileen freshly made for us that morning. Once the match was over, we headed to Clonmel Racecourse where we had a special room reserved (much needed with Hurricane Lorenzo providing us with plenty of rain!) for all our guests to watch the races in comfort.

Familiarity Bias in Action

So, who remembers our “Familiarity Bias” Blog from April 2019? Not the Argentines it would appear.

Ah Here… a.k.a. closet trackers (about to be) exposed

There appears to be a lot of expressions that are unique to the Irish (or maybe it’s the same with every race and I am suffering from Familiarity Bias).

Thank You To You All

Nobody Knows!

I received an email last week from a fund manager inviting me to join a webinar. We get these types of ‘updates’ all the time, this particular one was called ‘What’s in Store for Markets for The Remainder of 2019’. Now, it could have come from any fund manager, who sent it doesn’t really matter, what matters is that these updates are a waste of time. How so?

The six questions that will find you the right Financial Planner

Since we began our journey at Metis Ireland in early 2014, we’ve spent a lot of time and effort on marketing initiatives to make our brand synonymous with world class financial planning. We’ve engaged outside marketing experts to help us set out exactly what we do for our clients. It’s an ongoing challenge, because the reality is quite different from what most people think we do.

Know Your Behavioural Biases: The Final Chapter

After some time spent Googling the number 17, there’s not much in the way of memorable facts about it. It’s the atomic number of chlorine, the number of sides in a heptadecagon and the number of syllables in a haiku… but otherwise it’s a pretty ordinary number.
