Accomplishments

Throughout his lifetime, Brennan earned himself a reputation as being "the widely respected economist and tax consultant who designed the blueprint for tackling Ireland's black economy in the early 1990s." He did this through his well-researched paper that explained how to harness black money "to kick-start an otherwise stagnant economy."[1]
