Owner of Irish Ferries unafraid of Brexit effect

The owner of Irish Ferries has said the economic outlook and its own earnings potential remain buoyant despite Brexit uncertainties, writes Geoff Percival.

Shares in ferries and freight services group Irish Continental Group (ICG) rose marginally, yesterday, on the back of it reporting a solid set of annual results and saying it expects to be largely unaffected by continued fallout from Britain’s decision to leave the EU.
