SYS Financial surpasses €1bn in AUM as it secures national business award nominations
SYS Financial has surpassed €1bn in assets under management (AUM), marking a major milestone for the Tipperary-founded financial advisory firm as it also secures two nominations at the eir Business Chambers Ireland Awards 2026.
The Nenagh-headquartered company has been shortlisted for Pensions and Life Assurance Company of the Year, while founder and chief executive Tony Delaney has been nominated in the Businessperson of the Year category.
Founded in 2015, SYS Financial has grown from a single office in Nenagh into a national provider of life assurance, pensions and investment advisory services, with operations spanning Tipperary, Dublin, Cork, Limerick, Wexford and Galway.
The company said the €1bn AUM milestone reflects a decade of sustained growth and expansion, underpinned by its focus on specialist pensions, life assurance and investment advice for employers, individuals, families and private wealth clients.
Commenting on the achievement, Delaney said reaching the landmark figure represented “a defining moment” for the business.
“Reaching €1bn in assets under management is a defining moment for SYS Financial and a testament to the trust our clients have placed in us,” he said.
“Our focus has always been on building deep expertise in pensions and life assurance, where the right advice genuinely makes a real difference to people’s financial futures.”
Delaney added that the dual nominations at the national business awards were recognition of the commitment shown by the company’s team as it expanded beyond its regional roots.
The awards, which celebrate excellence, innovation and business impact across Ireland, will be presented at a ceremony on 26 June.
Over the past decade, SYS Financial has broadened its offering beyond its core life assurance, pensions and investment services to include tax-efficient retirement and inheritance planning, mortgage solutions and employee benefits.
The company’s growth highlights the increasing scale and sophistication of indigenous financial services firms operating outside Dublin.
SYS Financial now has more than €1bn in client assets under management.
From its beginnings as a local advisory business in Nenagh, SYS Financial has developed into a nationwide operation while maintaining a specialist focus on helping clients navigate long-term financial planning and wealth management decisions.
The latest milestone positions the firm among a growing cohort of Irish-owned financial advisory businesses achieving significant scale in an increasingly competitive market.
