Seventy five percent of Irish chief executives polled in the 10th annual survey of the Top 1,000 CEOs by property advisor CB Richard Ellis said they were less optimistic about Irish economic prospects in the short to medium term than they were 12 months ago. Some 52% of survey respondents said they expected Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth of between 0% and 3% to be achieved in Ireland in 2008, while 47% of respondents expected growth of between 3% and 6% for next year. No Irish chief executives expected growth of more than 6% in Ireland in 2008.
