Advisory Services

For the first time in more than twenty years, the Irish economy is in recession. Added to the global and local problems of the credit crunch are the domestic pressures of rising unemployment, declining house prices, government spending constraints and the resulting erosion of consumer confidence. Irish businesses and their executives therefore face considerable challenges – and managing in a downturn will be a new experience for many whose careers have been built in the benign company of the Celtic Tiger.
