History. Expertise. Performance.

Raglan Capital was established in 2007 by Cathal Friel with a number of former Merrion Stockbrokers colleagues following the successful sale of Merrion Stockbrokers in 2006. Its initial aim was to continue providing corporate finance services as previously done with Merrion to a range of Irish and international clients. However, from day one it was also Raglan’s stated intention of looking to create companies in-house which are then listed on the London Stock Exchange, working on occasion in conjunction with former clients of Raglan’s corporate finance services whom they advised during successful trade sales i.e. entrepreneurs who had sold their companies and wanted to do it all again but in a publicly listed vehicle. Therefore from 2012 onwards, we wound down the corporate finance advisory business to focus almost exclusively on creating our own in-house companies.
