Study finds confidence among Irish firms is high

More than half of Irish businesses are planning to increase exports next year.

A new study conducted by payroll firm Sage indicates confidence among Irish firms is strong, with 68% planning to grow their business in the next three years.

However, 45% of small and medium businesses say political uncertainty at home and abroad is a major concern.

Sage CEO Stephen Kelly said of the Irish business community: "57% reported growth in turnover and revenue over the last year and broadly they're pretty optimistic going forward."
