Richard Hooper was born in Dublin on August 7th, 1936, at a time when most of the world was marked by economic depression. It is ironic that the man who is widely regarded as the doyen of Irish corporate finance, was brought up in such difficult times. With his keen intellect, wisdom, combined with emotional intelligence, attention to detail and loads of energy, he was well suited to the demands of working in the finance and banking sector.
