On this week's episode of Inside Business, host Ciarán Hancock is joined by Chairman of the Irish Fiscal Advisory Council (Ifac) Seamus Coffey to discuss his concerns on how the Government is spending our corporation tax windfall.Ifac were this week in front of the Oireachtas Budgetary Committee giving its view on how that windfall is being spent. The corporation tax receipts for November topped €10 billion, the highest figure ever generated in a single month, with the overall figure for the year expected to hit a record €32 billion.Ifac argues that the Government is not saving enough of this bounty for a rainy day. Just 15 per cent of the projected €34 billion of corporation tax receipts for next year will effectively be squirreled away. That is just half the level of this year and was described as “risky” by Ifac.This week Fiona Reddan was writing about 50-year mortgages and posed the question as to whether they might be a solution to help first-time buyers here get on the property ladder.Donald Trump has described them as a potential “game changer”, but are they a good idea?Joey Sheahan is head of credit at MyMortgages.ie and he joined Ciarán to outline whether 50-year mortgages were worth considering here.Produced by John Casey with JJ Vernon on sound.

Pharma giant Eli Lilly manufactures the ingredients for its weight-loss drug Mounjaro and its diabetes drug Zepbound in Kinsale, Co Cork.The Irish Fiscal Advisory Council (Ifac) has found that the unprecedented surge in Irish exports this year (exports to the US rose by 153 per cent to €71bn between January and May) was almost entirely driven by shipments of these ingredients.Ifac tracked about €36.4bn of this export surge to Indianapolis, where Eli Lilly is headquartered and where it has several manufacturing sites.The jump in exports is expected to see the Irish economy expand by almost 11 per cent in GDP terms this year, which is almost certain to make it the fastest-growing advanced economy in the world in 2025.So with such an over-reliance on foreign direct investment, notably in the pharma sector, at a time of tariff threats and uncertainty, how vulnerable is Ireland?Irish Times economics correspondent Eoin Burke-Kennedy explains.Presented by Bernice Harrison.

Members of the Councils of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of the Eastern Caribbean (ICAEC) recently participated in the inaugural International Federation of Accountants (IFAC)–International Bar Association (IBA) Professional Body Anti-Money Laundering Capacity Building Workshop, held in the Cayman Islands from October 28 to 30, 2025. Andrea St. Rose, President of the ICAEC, and Joanne Cooper, Public Relations Officer, represented Saint Lucia. The three-day workshop brought together accounting and legal professionals from across the region to strengthen their role as “gatekeepers” in the global fight against money laundering, terrorist financing, and proliferation financing. Experts from the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), Caribbean Financial Action Task Force (CFATF), IFAC, IBA, and the World Bank provided valuable insights and best practices to enhance professional vigilance and compliance. Key areas of focus included beneficial ownership transparency and the responsibilities of Designated Non-Financial Businesses and Professions (DNFBPs) such as lawyers and accountants in upholding international standards and protecting the integrity of financial systems. Following the workshop, the ICAEC Saint Lucia Branch reaffirmed its commitment to collaborate with the Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU), the National Anti-Money Laundering Oversight Committee (NAMLOC), and other regulatory bodies to promote awareness, strengthen professional capacity, and educate members and the public as Saint Lucia prepares for the upcoming 5th Round Mutual Evaluation.

Breaking Barriers: Svetlana Winters' Journey from Russia to CFO in American Oil & Gas In this episode, we sit down with Svetlana Winters, CFO at Alteriver, whose journey from Russia to the executive boardroom of a U.S. oil & gas company is nothing short of inspiring. Svetlana shares how she left a top finance role in Russia to start over in the United States—facing language barriers, cultural challenges, and the uphill climb of rebuilding her career from the ground up. Her story is a testament to perseverance, adaptability, and the strength required to thrive in male-dominated industries. Key Insights You'll Learn Starting Over with Courage: How Svetlana navigated language and cultural barriers while rebuilding her career in a new country. Leadership in Oil & Gas: The realities of being a woman leader in a highly male-dominated sector—and how she earned respect through expertise and resilience. The CFO's Role Beyond Numbers: Why financial leadership is about relationships, trust, and proactive decision-making, not just balance sheets. Building Trust as a Leader: Svetlana's three-part formula for becoming a trusted advisor: build credibility through action, anticipate needs, and communicate with clarity. Global Lessons in Leadership: The cultural differences in management styles she's observed across Russia, the U.S., and beyond—and how they've shaped her approach. Svetlana's journey shows that even when you have to start over, determination, strategy, and a positive outlook can take you to the very top.

IFAC Accountant, Trevor Boland, is on this week's Beef Edge podcast to discuss financial planning and managing cash flow for the rest of the year. Suckler and beef farmers are currently receiving higher prices than ever before for their livestock sales, both through the live trade and through beef prices received from processors.  Trevor says that farmers need to be aware of what their farm profits are for 2024: what tax is payable on these profits and what the likely farm income is going to be for 2025? Many farmers in the past, Trevor explains, would look at income tax filing deadlines as a target and not need to worry about a tax bill, as quite often many, particularly farmers with off-farm income, found themselves with a low tax bill or indeed a refund.  But the IFAC review of 2024 figures to date and projections for 2025 show the majority of suckler and beef farmers across the country will not only have larger income tax bills than normal, but in some cases significant tax bills. For farmers looking at their 2024 figures and expected income for 2025, there are possibilities to reduce income tax bills, invest in the farm for the future, invest in family and make the farm a safer place to live and work.  Some options to reduce income tax bills include: Stock Relief, Family Wages ,Income Averaging Pension Contributions and Facility and Safety Improvement. For more episodes from the Beef Edge podcast, visit the show page at:https://www.teagasc.ie/thebeefedge Produced on behalf of Teagasc by LastCastMedia.com

Joining Bobby to run through it all is economist, Dan O'Brien.

Niall Conroy, Acting Chief Economist for the Irish Fiscal Advisory Council, discusses their latest report which warns that the country faces major spending pressures from an ageing population.

 Ireland's public finances are benefitting from a young population and a strong economy. But it's important to start preparing the coffers for an older population and more pension. That's according to the latest report from IFAC, and we heard from Niall Conroy, Author of the report and Acting Chief Economist of IFAC.

In this episode of the PFC Podcast, host Dennis engages with Andy Fisher to discuss the controversial topic of needle decompression in Individual First Aid Kits (IFACs). They explore the historical context of IFAC contents, the effectiveness of needle decompression, and the challenges in identifying tension pneumothorax in the pre-hospital setting. The conversation also delves into the training and decision-making processes in combat medicine, assessment techniques for pneumothorax, and potential alternatives to needle decompression. In this conversation, the speakers delve into the evolving perspectives on thoracostomy and its application in pre-hospital settings, particularly in combat medicine. They discuss the implications of tension physiology in hemothorax and the prevalence of massive hemothorax in recent years. The conversation also revisits treatment protocols for chest injuries, emphasizing the need for a shift towards simple thoracostomy over needle decompression. Finally, they evaluate the use of pigtail catheters versus traditional chest tubes, weighing the pros and cons of each in emergency situations.TakeawaysNeedle decompression is debated in the context of IFACs.Historical context shows that needle decompression was not originally included in official DOD lists.Hemorrhage is the leading cause of mortality in trauma cases.Tension pneumothorax is rare, occurring in only 1.1% of cases.Identifying tension pneumothorax in pre-hospital settings is challenging.Medics should rely on objective data for decision-making.Training often prioritizes speed over thorough assessment.Prophylactic interventions for tension pneumothorax may not be effective.Chest tubes are not always life-saving interventions.Exploring alternatives like finger thoracostomy may be beneficial. Evolving views on thoracostomy emphasize its selective use.Needle decompression may be overused in practice.Tension physiology can occur with blood accumulation in the chest.Massive hemothorax is increasingly recognized in trauma cases.Up to 49% of combat casualties require chest tubes.Simple thoracostomy should be prioritized over needle decompression.Patient monitoring is crucial in pre-hospital settings.Pigtail catheters may not be suitable for pre-hospital use.Chest tubes are preferred for their reliability in emergencies.Comfort for the patient is important but should not compromise urgent care.Chapters00:00 Introduction to the Podcast and Guest01:01 Debate on Needle Decompression in IFACs03:20 Historical Context of IFAC Contents06:40 Effectiveness of Needle Decompression09:09 Challenges in Identifying Tension Pneumothorax12:00 Training and Decision-Making in Combat Medicine16:21 Assessment Techniques for Pneumothorax21:29 Interventions for Tension Pneumothorax25:19 Exploring Alternatives to Needle Decompression25:50 Evolving Perspectives on Thoracostomy31:38 Understanding Tension Physiology in Hemothorax36:41 Revisiting Treatment Protocols for Chest Injuries43:12 Evaluating Pigtail Catheters vs. Chest TubesThank you to Delta Development Team for in part, sponsoring this podcast.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠deltadevteam.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠For more content, go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.prolongedfieldcare.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Consider supporting us: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠patreon.com/ProlongedFieldCareCollective⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.lobocoffeeco.com/product-page/prolonged-field-care⁠⁠⁠

Ethical conduct is the backbone of the accounting profession. This episode explores how accountants play a vital role in protecting the public interest by ensuring transparency and fairness in financial reporting. We discuss the serious consequences of unethical behavior and break down the five key threats to objectivity and independence:✅ Self-Interest Threat – Personal gain influencing decisions✅ Self-Review Threat – Evaluating one's own work✅ Advocacy Threat – Promoting a client's position too strongly✅ Familiarity Threat – Becoming too close to a client or employer✅ Intimidation Threat – Being pressured into unethical choicesLearn how to mitigate these risks with practical strategies and apply the five-step ethical decision-making framework to navigate ethical dilemmas. We also highlight the critical role of professional bodies like IFAC in setting standards and ensuring accountability.

Niall Conroy, senior economist at the Irish Fiscal Advisory Council, discusses their report on Ireland's infrastructure needs.

A Clare Architect claims introducing artificial intelligence to the planning system and imposing strict conditions on all state contractors is the only way to catch up with gaping housing, health, electricity and transport deficits. A new report published today by the Irish Fiscal Advisory Council has found Ireland may need as many as 80,000 construction workers over the next decade to meet demand but that only 20,000 will be required with improved productivity. IFAC also determined the country is lagging behind European counterparts, by not embracing modern building methods such as modular housing, and that uncertainy around planning is leading to delays and increased project costs. Ogonelloe Architect and Lecturer at the Department of Architecture at the South East Technological University Garry Miley has been telling Clare FM's Daragh Dolan that a housing boom is very possible with the right approach.

Ireland's infrastructure is catching up, but housing and planning are a big challenge. That's according to a new publication from the Irish Fiscal Advisory Council. Speaking to Newstalk Breakfast with more on this was Senior Economist with IFAC, Niall Conroy.

Still drowning in cash, the new Finance Minister is warned by IFAC, yet again, not to spend it. Are the fiscal giveaways of past budgets really costing each household €1000 a year? Amidst all the cries of 'they are windfall taxes' it's forgotten that capital investment is - or should be - very different to current spending. We used to argue about borrowing for investment purposes - economists have always pointed that that borrowing for investment is perfectly ok, provided the return on that investment is higher than the cost. Now, some seem to be arguing that spending money that we already have, windfall or otherwise, still shouldn't be spent, even on high return projects. There's crying wolf and then just being daft.GDP data is all over the place and has defeated us. Exchequer returns and other data point to an economy still growing although not one that is overheating. Tax revenues are booming and unemployment is down again.
