Unit fund investments, which account
for more than £4 billion of Irish
investors' savings, is the subject of a
new guide recently launched by
The Investment Bank of Ireland
Limited (IBI).
The new guide, which is called "A
Toe in the Water - Your Guide to
International Investment with Unit
Funds" is designed to provide
information on the range of options
available, the costs involved and the
various ways investors can access
international markets.
Commenting on the new guide,
Harry
Cassidy,
Associate Director, IBI
Investment Services Limited, said:
"While unit funds are the easiest way
for the majority of investors to access
international markets, they can often
seem complex and confusing. We've
gone to great lengths, therefore, to
make this guide as user-friendly as
possible . . . keeping the information
simple and to the point and, where
possible, taking on board the views of
our investors, who have helped us in
compiling the guide."
Members of the profession may obtain
copies of the guide, free of charge,
from IBI's offices in Dublin, Cork and
Galway.

JUNE 1994
M a d e l e i n e B l a k e -
A n A p p r e c i a t i on
i Madeleine Rose Blake
was a person of
exceptional courage and tenacity who
bore a long and protracted illness with
a calm grace unknown to most.
Madeleine refused to allow her illness
to dampen her enthusiasm for and her
love of life.
Madeleine graduated from University
College Galway with a B.A. (Hons) in
Legal Science and Spanish in 1985
and an LL.B. degree in 1987. Her
family had a great association with
Galway and with University College
Galway. She was very popular
with her classmates and kept up her
association with UCG as a Committee
Member of the UCG Graduates
Association.
• Madeleine was a diplomat. She knew
when to fight and when to negotiate.
People were attracted to her by her
warm smile and presence and she
always chose to compromise rather
than to conflict. She had a good grasp
of the law and utilised her skills as a
litigation practitioner in her family firm.
She had little time for hyperbole and
spoke her mind plainly, frankly and
honestly. Those who were longwinded
were politely reduced to brevity with a
jovial down-to-earth comment.
It is impossible to remain unaffected by
her death. Her loss to her parents,
Bruce
and
Grace
and to her family is
immeasurable. Her loss to her friends
and to all who knew her is immense. •
