"Ireland has failed to win Brexit financial services firms.". Is this correct?

The EY Funds Tracker tracks the movement of legal fund wrappers (not people); the two 2017 surveys that tracked the movement of people (Bloomberg and EU FDI) ranked Ireland poorly. Irish media do quote the EY Funds Tracker and say that it is "Companies relocating to Ireland from Brexit", but it is really the ongoing movement of legal structures around Europe; most of which has been moving to Ireland, Luxembourg and the Netherlands for the last 10 years as they are the leading tax havens in Europe (so it speaks well to Ireland's ranking as a tax haven, but says little about Brexit people movement in financial services). Goldman Sachs has recently done a report listing all the movement of London-based banking/insurance/asset mgt financial services people (which is mostly all to Frankfurt and Paris, and some to Lux), but I cannot find a 3rd party WP:RS reference to it so that could be used in this article??

I should note that while most of the "planned" relocation of financial services people due to Brexit has not been to Ireland, a dis-orderly Brexit could change that. We could see London firms that had expected Brexit to work out in a particular way, being forced to set up even an interim office in Dublin. Unpredictable times!
