Authorisation history
Virtu Financial Ireland first appears in the MICA Watch snapshot of 16 July 2026 — it was not in the copy of the register we took before that. This is when the record entered our archive, which is not necessarily the date the authority granted it: the register itself gives 28 April 2026.
Compiled from 17 snapshots of the ESMA register taken between 11 July 2025 and 18 August 2026. ESMA publishes the register as a weekly overwrite and keeps no public archive, so earlier states are not available from the source.
