US financial services giant BNY<\/a> is to close its Cork office where around 200 people are employed.<\/p>\n

The move comes less than a year after the group announced the closure of its office in the Drinagh Business Park in Wexford, where 310 jobs were impacted. Some of the workforce there relocated to Dublin where the group has its Irish headquarters.<\/p>\n

In a statement on Tuesday, BNY said: \u201cWe continually evaluate our real estate footprint to ensure we are operating efficiently. We are intending to close our Cork office.\u201d<\/p>\n

It added that a consultation process for affected employees has begun, and that the group \u201cremains committed\u201d to serving its clients in the Irish market and internationally.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s understood the process of winding down activity at the group\u2019s Cork office will continue out to 2027. <\/p>\n

There are about 200 staff there, and the Cork site will remain open and office space will be made available to support business as usual as operations are wound down.<\/p>\n

\"\"What can we potentially look forward to in Budget 2026?<\/p>\n

While the company would not comment on specific job losses, it is understood the intention is that a majority of the Cork roles will be migrated in a phased manner to Dublin.<\/p>\n

It is understood there are redundancy packages on offer, as well as redeployment options, while there will also be alternative opportunities within the company on the table for staff.<\/p>\n

The company is understood to be committed to providing all employees with a range of supports, as well as on-site information sessions during and after the collective consultation process.<\/p>\n
