Big demand for corporate finance as developments surge in Cork

GROWING demand for corporate finance for residential, hotel and office developments in Cork and Munster is a sign of continuing good times ahead.

Corporate finance providers LeBruin has handled around €70m in finance for new projects over the last 12 months, with another €100m in the pipeline. Of course, the main banks are also actively providing finance for projects in the southern region, as are RELM and Finance Ireland.
