Ireland’s Exchequer deficit improved in May 2026, narrowing to €2.3 billion from €4.7 billion a month earlier, according to figures updated on 4 June 2026.

The latest Exchequer Returns show a marked month-on-month improvement in the State’s fiscal position compared with April 2026, when the deficit stood at €4.7 billion. While the Exchequer remains in negative territory, the smaller shortfall in May signals some easing in funding pressures over the period.

Investors and policymakers will be watching subsequent releases to determine whether May’s improvement reflects a developing trend in Ireland’s public finances or a temporary shift driven by timing factors in revenue and expenditure flows.
