Michael D’Arcy, who resigned his Seanad seat today to join a funds lobbying group, spoke in the Seanad last week in favour of a bill for which funds have been lobbying for the last five years.
Mr D’Arcy issued a statement today saying that he was leaving the Seanad to take up a role as chief executive of the Irish Association of Investment Managers (IAIM), the representative body for the funds and investment industry in this country.
