Aquavista, the UK’s largest marina infrastructure provider, operates 32 inland and coastal marinas offering over 5,300 berths and marine services across the country. The transaction, backed by Antin’s Mid Cap Fund I, marks a significant milestone in Aquavista’s growth journey, with management reinvesting alongside Antin to support the company’s long-term strategic ambitions.

  • In his latest Tax Notes Federal article, Partner Hale Sheppard breaks down the four ERC laws, grounds on which the IRS issued Notices, specific guidance about ERC eligibility, a recent case challenging the validity of Notice 2021-20, prior situations in which taxpayers prevailed against the IRS under the Administrative Procedure Act, and various takeaways for taxpayers still engaged in ERC disputes. This is an interesting and important read for anyone navigating ERC disputes.

    On 7 October 2025, the Minister for Finance, Paschal Donohoe T.D., alongside the Minister for Public Expenditure, Infrastructure, Public Service Reform and Digitalisation, Jack Chambers T.D., delivered the first budget speech of the current Government, Budget 2026. The Ministers announced a total budgetary package, as previously set out in the Summer Economic Statement, of €9.4 billion, split between public expenditure measures worth €8.1 billion and tax measures worth €1.3 billion. The Ministers highlighted that the country has transformed in recent decades, and in addition to performing well economically, has seen significant changes in areas such as employment, education, and the health of the country's public finances. The Department of Finance has projected a modified domestic demand, a proxy for the domestic economy, to grow by 3.3% this year, and by 2.3% next year. With these advancements and projections noted, the focus shifted to the issues facing those living, working, and doing business in Ireland today, which are underpinned by ongoing uncertainties in the global economy.
