To further support the growth and development of FDI in Ireland, AIB commissioned independent research, the findings of which we have assembled into this report "Why Choose Ireland?"
The research looked at the reasons why multinational companies invest in Ireland. It investigated the main drivers and enablers to setting up business in Ireland. It also evaluated companies' experiences in the Irish market and sought key insights from existing FDI companies.
It is evident from the research that Ireland is a very attractive place to do business. However all stakeholders have a role to play to ensure Ireland maintains its competitive advantage.
We hope this research will be of benefit to multinational companies considering setting up or increasing their investment in Ireland.
