Italian Aircraft - Irish Registered?

I am sure someone has asked this question before but couldn't did anything, & apologies if this is in the wrong forum!

But why do so many Italian airlines have some or all of ther fleet registered to Ireland (EI-)?

Air Italy for example had B757 I-AIGA which is now EI-IGA. Likewise Alitalia I-BIXZ is now EI-IXZ.

Sure there is a logical explanation, just dying to know what it is!

Many thanks
