Memo: Statement by EC, ECB and IMF on the Eleventh Review Mission to Ireland

Staff teams from the European Commission (EC), European Central Bank (ECB), and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) visited Dublin during July 9-18, 2013 for the eleventh review of the government's economic programme. Ireland's programme remains on track and yields on sovereign bonds are well below their levels in recent years. Discussions with the authorities focused on how best to address the remaining challenges, especially the fiscal deficit, unemployment, and banks' nonperforming loans.
