Dear Customer,
Welcome to the Summer 2009 issue of our Business Bulletin. Once again, you will find it full of up-to-date news and market analysis.
In this issue, Dan McLaughlin, Bank of Ireland’s chief economist, notes that following increases in the equity index, the US and global economies are at a turning point. This view isn´t universal agreement, with opinions differing on whether we are approaching a global recovery or merely a slowing in the pace of the economic contraction.
This issue also features an article on renewable energy and the significant opportunities this represents for your business. The Top Tips on Successful Credit Applications article offers a simple and concise approach to save your business time in effectively securing credit. This issue also includes information on Bank of Ireland’s hugely successful National Enterprise week, which saw events being held throughout the country.
