A significant wave of US investment in financial services is projected to generate nearly 1,000 new jobs in Belfast alone.
Bank of America's new Belfast operation constitutes their initial Northern Ireland presence, thereby bolstering the city's economy.
This substantial investment, exceeding £1.25 billion, encompasses other US firms like Citigroup, PayPal, and S&P Global.
Belfast's growing reputation as a fintech center and its skilled workforce are key factors attracting this substantial investment.
