‘Export performance will suffer if debt crisis goes on’

IRISH export performance will suffer in the coming months, if the eurozone debt crisis goes on.

That was the warning, yesterday, from specialist financial services company, Investec at the launch of the first edition of its new quarterly analysis of Ireland’s export sector.

The debut Export Analysis Report from Investec Ireland is something of a mixed bag, in that it paints a positive picture of recent performance, but starkly warns of potentially tough times ahead for what is generally viewed as being the most likely route to economic recovery here.
