Strong export performance helps Ireland to top globalisation survey
The survey says steps taken by Ireland’s policymakers during the economic crisis have helped improve the country’s globalisation ranking — which is boosted by the country now being ranked the most globalised economy in the areas of technology exchange and movement of finance and capital.
“Despite having been hit hard by the global recession, the research confirms that Ireland is, and is perceived to be, a leader in international trade,” said Mike McKerr, managing partner at Ernst & Young Ireland.
