The Chairman said that lending growth is very strong, while Irish Life and Permanent continues to be 'very successful' in respect of its current account campaign.
'On the life and pensions side, we have had a tremendous start to the year in respect of sales of pension, investment and protection policies and this of course if before any impact from SSIA accounts,' Ms Bowler added.
