I will finish on this point. According to note No. 63, Bank of Ireland has carried forward €1.1 billion in tax losses. That is a significant advantage to the bank which it claims could last until 2035. In most other jurisdictions a minimum effective rate of taxation would be levied. Does the bank have a view on how the tax losses carried forward are working in its favour?
