The Central Bank has authorised 64 AIFMs and in addition 35 AIFMs have been registered. In total, 99 AIFMs have the authority to operate within the state and the 64 authorised AIFMs also have the right to market themselves throughout the EU.

A further 24 applications are largely complete but authorisation was not finalised because of the firms’ own business needs. These may, in due course be granted pursuant to Art 8(5) of 2011/61/EU.
