The National Treasury Management Agency (NTMA) advise me that their presentation for institutional investors contains a wide range of information relating to the Irish economy and public finances. Generally speaking, the content of the presentation reflects questions asked of the NTMA by investors. The content is refreshed following investor roadshows undertaken by the NTMA. It is also constantly updated for the latest available information.
While I do not propose to list every indicator here, the presentation includes a wide range of macro-economic and fiscal indicators, such as:
- GDP and GNP
- Employment and unemployment
- Consumption, including retail sales
- Exports
- Investment
- Debt and deficit levels
- Funding developments including bond issuance details
- Credit ratings
The presentation also contains sections on the property market, on the National Asset Management Agency (NAMA) and on the banking sector.
The more recent versions of the presentation have added a separate section on BREXIT.
The most recent version of the presentation was published on the NTMA website on 4 August last and can be accessed via the following link: http://www.ntma.ie/news/ntma-investor-presentation-2/.
