Irish Banking sector

The Irish banking sector consists of banks that provide financial services like savings accounts, loans, and payments to individuals and businesses. Major banks include Bank of Ireland, AIB, and Permanent TSB. The sector is regulated by the Central Bank of Ireland, ensuring stability and consumer protection. Irish banks are connected to global financial markets, and they play a key role in supporting economic growth by financing property, business development, and personal needs. After the 2008 financial crisis, the sector strengthened through reforms and recapitalizations, aiming for resilient and well-managed banking services.
