A spokesman for Mr Kearney declined to comment. A spokesman for Davy said: “Davy is committed to engaging constructively on all reasonable complaints and claims. Mr Kearney subsequently engaged LeBruin Private, co-founded by former Anglo Irish executive Tom Browne, in 2014 to help him deal with his debt to Stapleford. The Central Bank fined Davy €4.1 million in relation to the deal last month. Davy subsequently put itself up for sale as it seeks to rebuild trust in the business and address concerns about former senior executives involved in a bond-deal scandal remaining as major shareholders.
