Abstract

The effect of corruption on Ireland's economy is examined throughout this dissertation, with particular attention paid to the way corrupt activities affect employment, foreign investment, and economic development. Although Ireland is known for having strong laws against corruption, this research explores the less obvious effects of corruption on the economy and how it is perceived. By means of an extensive examination of legal frameworks, practical instances, and conversations with experts. The study investigates recurring themes and trends that emerge during the investigation. Although despite Ireland's excellent corruption prevention framework, the dissertation emphasises the requirement for ongoing development and attention to detail. Improving disclosure, accountability, and trust among citizens is essential to reducing the damaging economic effects of corruption. The findings of the research offer suggestions for improving anticorruption initiatives and point to sectors that should be investigated further to protect Irish economic growth from corruption's hidden consequences.
