Financials help ISEQ finish up for the week

It was a good performance from the financials today which meant Dublin's stock exchange finished at 5,336.92 up 28.76 points.

Despite the finding that the Allied Irish Bank overcharged customers for years, their shares jumped 19c to €12.39. The Irish Financial Services Regulatory Authority found AIB overcharged customers and broke the law by failing to notify the regulator of increased foreign exchange costs. The bank was today forced to pay out €34.2m to customers.
