Ireland Key Points

 

Blue Ireland Thumbnail0As the Irish economy enters what is expected to be it’s third consecutive year of growth, there is a greater sense of renewed confidence than in 2012, which was in itself a turning point. The flexible nature of the Irish economy has allowed for a considerable adjustment in competitiveness which in turn has allowed Ireland to remain a key location for international investment, from US multi-nationals in particular. Exports have and will continue to lead economic activity - with the value of exports exceeding €92 billion in 2012, the highest level in a decade.
