CEO Carl Widger
Speaking this week, Metis Ireland co-founder and CEO, Carl Widger said: “We’re proud to have built a thriving financial planning business by putting our clients at the centre of everything we do. Securing investment from a firm of Davy’s standing and scale is a significant endorsement of the Metis Ireland team.
“Although we will continue to operate independently, this investment will allow us to enhance both our client proposition and service delivery capabilities.”
The transaction is subject to Central Bank of Ireland approval.
