ABOUT THIS COMPANY

Irish feet, international footprint

As far as Irish banks go, few firms have as much clout outside the country’s borders as Allied Irish Banks (AIB) does.  Headquartered in Dublin, AIB Group’s operations are principally centred in Ireland, Britain, Poland and the United States.  In 2008, the group acquired interests in Baltic mortgage provider AmCredit, which has operations in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.  AIB Group also has representative offices in several other key locations, including Budapest, Paris, Luxembourg, Sydney, Frankfurt and Zurich.

In the U.S., AIB operates as Allied Irish America, and has offices in New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Atlanta and Los Angeles.  The banking group also has a 24.3 percent stake in the U.S. regional bank M&T Bank Corporation, which developed after the merger of AIB’s former US subsidiary Allfirst into M&T, in April 2003.
