Asset Control set to create 50 jobs - graduate jobs

Jobseeking graduates could be buoyed by the news that Asset Control is creating 50 new positions as it expands its Dublin docklands operations.

The international finance firm, which supplies investment data and information to companies, has been heralded for its decision to grow within the Irish-based finance technology sector.

Richard Bruton, minister for jobs, Eenterprise and innovation, said: "Ireland's financial services sector continues to attract cutting-edge companies that will help to further enhance Ireland's reputation as a smart economy."

Asset Control helps financial service companies to process and manage market data for their business, including compliance, risk management, research, operations and trading.

Scotiabank, Credit Suisse and BNP Paribas Securities Services are some of the clients Asset Control works for.

Phil Lynch, president and chief executive of Asset Control, said Dublin was chosen because of the quality of software and specialist technological skills.

The investment is supported by IDA Ireland.
