Irish Resident Investment Funds Statistics

Comprehensive information is collected and published, quarterly on all Irish-resident investment funds. The main dataset details stock and transactions, with information on the scale, composition, geographical and sectoral exposures of funds’ assets and liabilities. Funds data are transmitted to the Central Statistics Office and the European Central Bank to feed into Irish and euro area balance of payments and national accounts statistics. The data are also a key input into the measurement of shadow banking based on Financial Stability Board definitions.
