In the same way that the British government likes to exert influence over business plans within the UK, the same can be said of the European Union.

A significant proportion of the EU budget is dedicated to improving those countries who are lagging behind the average within member states, for example the nine countries who joined the EU in 2004.

Generous incentives await anyone seeking to establish businesses in those regions and this is also true for other disadvantaged parts of the EU.

Beyond those geographic considerations, grants and loans at favourable rates of interest are available for other wealth-creating or socially desirable projects - including the opening or closing of some businesses, a range of agricultural activities and significant export opportunities.

In all cases the grant or loan must be agreed before any expenditure is incurred and so you should discuss your plans with Corrigans to see if there are any benefits available for you.
