Irish accountants ‘the most pessimistic’ on global growth
More than half report a loss of confidence in the prospects of their organisations over the last three months, with just 12% reporting confidence gains, a new survey reveals.
The Irish members of the global body ACCA (the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants) were the only group in which not a single accountant surveyed said they were “much more confident” than three months earlier. In fact, 87% of Irish respondents felt the global economy was stagnating or deteriorating.
