Monterey Insight is a leading independent fund industry research company that provides the only comprehensive statistical analysis of service providers for all investment funds serviced in Ireland, the UK, Luxembourg, Jersey and Guernsey.

Peter Stapleton, head of investment management team at Maples and Calder in Dublin, said: “We are delighted to be ranked as the top legal firm in Ireland having advised on the highest number of Irish-serviced funds for the sixth year in a row.

“To once again obtain this coveted position is a fantastic achievement and wouldn’t have been possible without the support of our trusted clients and the talented partners, lawyers and wider investment management team at Maples.”

He continued: “In addition to a great year in Ireland, our global investment management group was further bolstered this year by the opening of offices in Luxembourg and Jersey. These offices were opened in response to a surge in demand as our clients examine how best to maintain and enhance their European business and we look forward to working with these new global teams in 2019.”
