The Central Bank is warning consumers to be aware that Rosaleen Grier t/a Grier & Associates (Ireland) is not authorised to carry out the services of a debt management firm in Ireland.

It is a criminal offence for an unauthorised person or firm to provide financial services in Ireland that would require an authorisation from the Central Bank.

If you have information about this firm, or any other unauthorised firm, you can contact the Central Bank at (01) 224 4000.

A list of unauthorised persons/firms published to date is available on the Central Bank website. So far this year the regulator has issued warnings on three other firms: Wakefield Securities Limited; Shields Corporate Partners; and Wagner Capital Management Group.
