Fintech firms look to Ireland

Ireland could be a location choice for firms in the burgeoning financial technology (fintech) industry post- Brexit, according to a report from KPMG.

The suggestion comes as Barclays confirmed its new base in Dublin following its decision to cement its presence ahead of Brexit.

The KPMG report said that fintech bosses were taking more time than other financial institutions like banks and insurers to make a firm decision on relocation.
