“Mapping the Golden Circle presents research undertaken by the independent think-tank TASC to test the hypothesis that Ireland’s top companies – in both the private and public sectors – had a
small group of well-connected individuals sitting on their boards during the crucial Celtic Tiger years 2005 – 2007. The report concludes that there was a small group of individuals who held multiple
directorships in these 40 companies, and explores the implications for good corporate governance of institutions at the heart of Ireland’s economy” – ©TASC, May 2010. The full document is available
