Mannion Money Advisory

Colm Mannion, as Managing Director, leads the firm's advisory and placement activities. The firm does not make discretionary investment decisions; it recommends fund commitments which client institutions ultimately approve under their own governance. This structure aligns with its role as an intermediary rather than a delegated asset manager.

The firm operates as an advisory and placement agent, not a fund manager. It does not sponsor or manage collective investment schemes. Client capital is directed into third-party funds, with Mannion Money Advisory facilitating introductions, due diligence support, and ongoing monitoring.

Irish pension schemes and insurance companies represent the primary allocator base. These institutions operate under domestic regulatory frameworks that impose specific solvency and diversification requirements, which the firm's fund selection process is designed to address.

The firm focuses on closed-end private funds across private credit, real estate, and infrastructure. Typical commitments enter primary fundraises, with structures including direct lending funds, value-add property vehicles, and core-plus infrastructure partnerships. Co-investment and separately managed account access may be negotiated on a case-by-case basis depending on client size and GP appetite.

The primary investment lens covers Ireland and Western Europe, though selected strategies in the UK and US are reviewed where they offer diversification or return characteristics not available in domestic European markets. The firm sources managers across these jurisdictions for its institutional clients.
