NCB Stockbrokers is the one of the largest independent stockbrokers in Ireland. With offices in Dublin and London, we bring together considerable experience and expertise across institutional, retail and corporate investment markets, which together create significant added value for our customers and sets us apart from our competitors. NCB was instrumental in promoting the concept of Ireland's IFSC in the early 1980's and has played a key role in its development since that time.

NCB's Investment Funds and Debt Securities Division has the longest track record in listing funds in Dublin, acting as sponsor to the first investment fund listing on the Irish Stock Exchange in 1989. Since that date, NCB has remained one of the leading sponsoring brokers for the listing of domestic and offshore investment funds and structured products on the Irish Stock Exchange. Our clients include some of the world's major financial institutions as well as many other established and newly formed asset and hedge fund managers.

Every fund applying for admission to the official list of the Irish Stock Exchange must appoint a sponsoring broker. The principal role of the sponsoring broker is to ensure that the fund is guided and advised as to the application of the Irish Stock Exchange's listing rules and, where relevant, the UK Listing Authority's Listing Rules. As sponsoring broker, NCB will provide a complete and efficient service to applicants seeking a listing from initial advice on the suitability for listing through to the continuing obligations a fund must comply with once listed.
