STANDPOINT by Atique Naqvi

Ireland has changed financial regulations to accommodate shari’a-compliant products, and this will help bring investment from the Arabian Gulf, says Enda Kenny. "We have changed financial legislation to accommodate shari’a-compliant financial products. They would be given the same tax treatment as any other financial products."

Ireland is committed to the European Union, our country is now stable and the euro zone is stabilizing in significant ways, says Irish finance minister Michael Noonan. "We have a very stable economy, and Europe has stabilized as well, the euro zone has stabilized very significantly. We are committed to Europeans, so Ireland is a very good base for countries looking for European headquarters and an English speaking country that has the euro as a currency."
