In this week's podcast, 330, I take a look at Gillen Markets.
Gillen Markets have built a solid reputation as investment managers and advisors over the past decade and a half, led by founder Rory Gillen. They reportedly manage and advise on over €600m for c.500 families.
They made the headlines last week, having announced that they were selling their business to Quilter Cheviot, a UK and Irish based Discretionary fund manager, for an undisclosed sum.
As these things always do; it piqued interest in terms of the consolidation of yet another firm, but also in Gillen Markets own Gillen Market Fund (GM Fund).
So we are sharing a few thoughts on;
- Market consolidation going on in Ireland
- Analysis of the GM Fund itself (performance, allocation and fees)
I hope it helps.
