International boost for Irish jobs sector
While IFSC Ireland — the representative board for international finance firms with an Irish presence — has no fixed targets for attracting new business, its council chairman Willie Slattery said the body would be happy with such employment numbers being met over the stated timeframe.
Mr Slattery — who also heads up the Irish operations of international financial services/investment management giant, State Street — said the new jobs would be generated by both existing IFSC firms and new companies looking to establish a presence here, and would be spread throughout the country.
