Very insightful and interesting IFDA “Insight Session” event held on Thursday 8 March 2018 at the Stephens Green Hibernian Club in Dublin. This panel event focused on the initial challenges of MIFID II but specifically in the context of the oversight role of INEDs on the Boards of Investment Funds and Fund Management Companies. Many thanks to our panelists, Joe Mottley (INED), Stephen Carty (Maples & Calder), Eoin McManus (Central Bank of Ireland), Paul Traynor (EY), Diarmuid Whyte (ACOI), David Pasley (PWC) and to our panel moderator Noel Ford (IFDA).
