In a recent interview with the Sunday Independent, Fordel Chief Investment Officer Oliver Moloney shared his views on the potential impact of proposed US tariffs on the Irish economy. He warned that a 50% levy would be “very damaging” for Ireland, which he noted is more exposed to the US than other European economies.
