A lot happens at Ibec. From the events and VIP briefings we host with political and business leaders to our political engagements and campaigns we run on your behalf. Here we show some recent updates from our CEO, Danny McCoy.

Ibec meets Minister Donohoe on Budget 2020

Alastair Blair Country Managing Director Accenture; Danny McCoy Ibec CEO; Anne Heraty, CEO CPL Resources; and Colin Hunt AIB Chief Executive.

An Ibec delegation met Minister for Finance and Public Expenditure and Reform Paschal Donohoe and a team of officials from his Department to formally present the Ibec budget submission, as part of our lobbying campaign in the run-up to Budget 2020.

The Ibec submission seeks to address three key challenges: risks to our FDI model arising from the OECD’s Base Erosion and Profit Sharing (BEPS); the slowdown in the global trading environment; and of course the irrevocable change in Ireland’s relationship with the UK.

Global tax expert briefs Ibec on OECD reform process

Ibec CEO, Danny McCoy, welcomes Will Morris, PwC Deputy Global Tax Policy Leader and Chair of the BIAC Tax Committee (OECD), to give Ibec members an expert briefing and a questions and answers session on current developments in the BEPS 2 tax reform process.

Ireland has been one of the biggest beneficiaries of the BEPS 1 process at the OECD, whose impact is being felt currently in surging corporation tax receipts. The BEPS 2 process underway, however, has the potential to offer both significant threats and opportunities to Ireland’s business model.
