Anyone ever heard of Aisling Financial Services Limited?

the title pretty much covers the lot!

Are they offering services here in Ireland?

They should be registered with the financial regulator. send email query to [broken link removed]

If they are registered with another EU national regulator then presumably they can operate in Ireland? After all Rabo are regulated by the Dutch CB and not IFSRA for example.

Any financial institution established and regulated in another EU member state must notify the regulator of the member state in which the company intends to do business of that intention. It's called 'freedom to provide services' that is, if the company does not have a physical base in the target member state . If the company intends to set up a branch/office other than a head office, it's called 'freedom of establishment' .

Either way, the regulator should be informed.

A few years back I made a complaint to IFSRA and the ASAI about some UK crowd who were using (in my opinion) very dodgy advertising in free local newspapers (e.g. advertising huge returns with no qualification on how guaranteed or dependent on other factors they were). ASAI told me it was IFSRA's responsibility. IFSRA told me that the company was UK FSA regulated and that they could pass the complaint on to them but (a) could/would do nothing about it themselves and (b) would/could not keep me abreast of any developments on the FSA side with the complaint. The fact that they were not IFSRA "registered" (?) or authorised didn't seem to matter.

It would be helpful if the OP mentioned why they are asking about Aisling Financial Services. I suspect it's a UK query, so much of the speculation around whether or not they are operating in Ireland may be redundant.
