Also speaking today, Managing Director of Newcourt Retirement Fund Managers Ltd, Gerard Keane stated:

It is great to be here today to open our new Office in Cavan. This is a very exciting time for Newcourt as we continue to grow our business through organic growth and several recent acquisitions. In the last two years we have taken over several trustee business’s including Munster Pensioneer Trustees Ltd, IFS Trustees Ltd, JLT QFM Services (Mercer) self-directed business and most recently, Signature Trustees Services Ltd.

This has resulted in the need to expand our office space and having looked at many locations we decided on Cavan Town, due to the availability of a well-educated workforce and a number of our own staff wishing to relocate to the area. Martina Kelleher has been with the business from the start and now heads up the Cavan Office having decided to relocate home, outside Cavan Town. The people recruited to date have proven we have made the right decision in opening here.

He believes that the addition of the Cavan office allows Newcourt the opportunity to grow and continue to provide quality services to their financial advisors and their clients.
