RBC I&TS managing director for Ireland, Padraig Kenny, said the firm was celebrating 20 years in Ireland.
“It also demonstrates Ireland’s attractiveness as an offshore financial centre for international fund managers. We look forward to extending our existing relationship with Pinnacle and supporting the growth of its new fund,” he said.
RBC I&TS has had a relationship with Pinnacle since 2013 and provides a full service offering to its managers in Australia.
