  New office space on St. Stephen's Green gives Irish office of Duff & Phelps capacity to increase its headcount by 30 people
  Duff & Phelps, the global advisor that protects, restores and maximizes value for clients, has officially opened its new office on 24 St. Stephens Green in Dublin 2. The office was officially opened by the President of Duff & Phelps, Jacob Silverman and CEO of IDA Ireland, Martin Shanahan. The six-story building was originally designed by Scott Tallon Walker and was recently redesigned to include a newly constructed penthouse floor.
  The new office gives the global advisory firm capacity to add 30 financial services professionals to its Irish team. Duff & Phelps will look to expand in a number of areas including Valuation, Compliance and Regulatory Consulting, Real Estate Advisory Services and Restructuring Advisory, with recruitment having already commenced. Duff & Phelps' recent acquisition of Kroll, the global leader in complex investigations, security and cyber solutions, will also strengthen the firm's disputes and investigations offering in Ireland.
  Jacob Silverman, President of Duff & Phelps, said: "We are delighted to officially open our new office in the center of Dublin. Since 2014, Duff & Phelps has been building a presence in Ireland and we are very proud of the work we have done for our Irish and international clients in Dublin. This new marquee office represents a very important investment from Duff & Phelps and highlights our ambition and hopes for the future."
  "With over 2,500 people working across 70 locations, Duff & Phelps is only as good as the people who make up our company. In Dublin, we have 70 world class professionals supporting our clients in the areas of valuation, corporate finance, disputes and investigations, compliance and regulatory matters, and other governance-related issues. This new office will allow us to increase our staff count and grow new service lines for existing clients in addition to winning new business."
  Martin Shanahan, CEO of IDA Ireland said: "Today's announcement is testament to the confidence that Duff & Phelps have in their Irish operations and in the strong team of professionals they already have based here. Ireland is exceptionally suitable for global companies in the financial services sector due to the emphasis placed on nurturing talent, our proven track record and the pro-business infrastructure. I look forward to seeing Duff & Phelps continue to grow and thrive in Ireland."
  The new office space is the latest element of the New York headquartered company's growth in Ireland. Duff & Phelps entered the Irish market in 2014 with the acquisition of the Restructuring and Insolvency Division of RSM Farrell Grant Sparks. The firm further increased its service offering in Ireland with strategic acquisitions of Kinetic Partners and Corporate Finance Ireland.
