Ireland on course to be world's most-globalised country
Ireland is on course to become the world's most globalised country, meaning we will be the most open to global trade, capital movements, technology, idea and labour exchange.
At the moment, we rank second in the poll by Ernst and Young, coming behind Hong Kong.
Managing director of Ernst and Young in Ireland Mike McKerr says Ireland is on course to become the most globalised country next year:
"If Ireland can retain a ranking of two in the world, it's a great accolade to what we've achieved," he said.
"(However, ) we project that Ireland will become the most globalised nation next year and retain that position for the next three years."
