Applicability of DORA to third country investment firms

Question

DORA also applies to the "financial entities" listed in Article 2 DORA. This includes investment firms as defined in Article 4 point (1) of Directive 2014/65/EU. Reference is made to Article 2 subsection 1 under e. in conjunction with Article 3 point (33) of DORA. Does this mean that DORA also applies to investment firms with their seats outside the EU which provide investment services in the EU?
