In this bonus episode of The Bottom Line we hear an extended interview with Economist Jim Power. Jim spoke to John about the recently released final Gross Domestic Product and economic growth numbers for 2021 and what this data can tell us about the Irish economy. Jim tells us about modified domestic demand which tries to capture what consumers are doing, spending and taxation as well as investment in the economy excluding the multinational activity.  Jim also spoke about the events in Russia and Ukraine and what the potential implications may be.
