From Surge to Slowdown

AIB’S Chief Economist David McNamara and AIB Treasury’s Jason Rehill review the August Irish PMI surveys, discussing strong growth for the manufacturing sector with employment continuing to increase and trade to the US surging. There’s a review of slowing service sector activities, while employment rates continuing to fall. There’s an examination of the slowdown in the Irish economy following rapid growth, and finally the sense of global economic uncertainty flowing from the impact of tariffs.    Visit our website and subscribe to receive AIB"s Economic Analysis direct to your inbox.
