Four millionaire draws for prize bonds as investments hit record high

INVESTORS in prize bonds, who provide 1.5% of the state’s national debt of €51 billion, are being rewarded with four annual draws of €1 million.

However, while investments in prize bonds hit a record high in 2008, the Prize Bond Company says that it has no plans to allow would-be investors from around the world, but based outside Ireland, to buy prize bonds through its website.

Postal applications from around the world are accepted.
