Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform
Green Paper on Capital Markets Union: Discussion
2:00 pm
Ms Regina Breheny:
I hope the EU will follow through on its objective. There is much talk and noise about the importance of venture capital, but we have not seen much action yet in terms of increasing the capital available. I hope that will be the result of it. Something has to be done to bring the private sector to the table and to encourage it to invest in venture capital as an asset class.
