The group has stepped up its business efforts in Ireland – a European Union member state.

The global investor services group, IQ-EQ, has appointed Paul Griffith as chief commercial officer for Ireland. 
 
Due to growing business and future ambition in the region, Griffith has been appointed as IQ-EQ Group’s first dedicated chief commercial officer for Ireland. In his new role, Griffith will join the regional leadership team and work closely with the wider team in implementing strategic growth plans. He will also manage the regional sales team and lead understanding of industry trends. 

“Paul’s promotion to CCO is well deserved and key for our ambitious growth plans in Ireland. He has the business acumen and industry experience to excel in his new role and I’m looking forward to working with him on current and future commercial plans,” Tom Berrigan, managing director of IQ-EQ Ireland, said.  

Prior to joining IQ-EQ in 2021, Griffith was a commercial director with Intertrust Group and managed a portfolio of asset finance, capital markets and private equity clients. A seasoned professional with over 16 years’ experience in the sector, Griffith has also worked as a client services manager with BNY Mellon Corporate Trust, a fund trader with Citco Bank in the Netherlands and as an equity execution trader with NCB Stockbrokers. 

Yesterday, this news service reported on a conference in Dublin exploring the development of the funds and wealth management industry in Ireland, which is a member state of the European Union.

Earlier in October the firm appointed Brian McArthur-Muscroft as its new group chief financial officer. 

In late June, IQ-EQ agreed to acquire ComplianceAsia and Lymon PTE, strengthening its regulatory compliance business globally. The acquisitions will complement IQ-EQ’s regulatory compliance operations in the UK and the US.
