Enterprise Ireland got extra funding on top of what it got the previous year, but instead of a €40 million fund there will be access to a €10 million stabilisation fund, and also its clients will have access to this €300 million loan fund. This Brexit loan fund has a fair bit of flexibility. Businesses can get loans from €25,000 up to €1.5 million. They can also access greater amounts for support through the €10 million stabilisation fund. Enterprise Ireland had a record capital allocation in 2017 that was maintained in 2018 and it also got an extra €1.3 million.
