The number of Irish resident millionaires is now more than two-and-a-half times higher than during the Celtic Tiger boom of the late 2000s, according to research from Capgemini.

Ireland has 54,730 dollar millionaires, more people than live in Drogheda or Dundalk and close to the population of Waterford city, according to the annual Wealth Report by the Paris-based consulting giant.
