Economic Eye provides an all-island economic forecast and commentary for the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland.
Produced by Dr. Loretta O’Sullivan, EY Ireland's Chief Economist, and the EY Economic Advisory team, the report offers insights into the current economic environment as well as an indication of what’s to come for businesses in a complex marketplace over the next 12 months.
Despite prevailing risks, our Autumn 2024 Economic Eye outlook for the all-island economy is largely favourable. We foresee economic growth for both the Republic of Ireland (ROI) and Northern Ireland (NI), with momentum anticipated to strengthen through the forecast period. This comes as inflation aligns with targets conducive to price stability, monetary conditions ease, and demand from trading partners improves. Furthermore, we expect employment to rise in the coming year and beyond.
For a detailed outlook and further understanding of these trends, we invite you to download the full report.
