US law may apply to the Irish futures exchange, because in the past the company took bets on both political and sports futures, but because US law considers wagering on sports to be gambling, the sports portion of the company was split off into Tradesports. So apparently US law does have at least some effect on the company.

Having an "effect" on is not the same as having the law apply to it.

But having an affect could!
