Overall, levels of trust in Ireland have again declined to those last seen at the height of the recession, despite a nascent economic recovery.

Editor's Notes
- SO WHAT IS TRUST WELLTRUST IS INTANGIBLE BUT ITS ABSENCE OR PRENCE MAKES A VERY TANGIBLE DIFFERENCE
- Half of countries are below 50% as it relates to trust in business. 16 of 27 saw a decrease year over year. This decrease is not necessarily related to economic performance (like it was in 2008/2009). We see huge drops in Canada and Germany, and significant decreases in Australia and Singapore.
- This is a sad story for media, with nearly two-thirds of markets distrusting media. Some have seen minimal increases, but those are offset by declines – some of which are massive, such as those in Hong Kong, which beg the question, “should media have been more active in support of protesters?” and raises red flags around the believability of media. Unsurprisingly, there is a higher level of trust in media in authoritarian countries.
- What is driving that feeling? 7 in 10 say Technology is the driver of change, but more alarming is the place “Greed/Money” and “Business Growth Targets” have north of 50%. Less than 1 in 3 believe innovation and change to be motivated a desire for personal and societal improvement.
