Readership of The Irish Times in the senior business community has risen to 84 per cent from 83 per cent in 1998, a new survey said yesterday.

The paper was the only Irish publication to increase its readership in the category, the European Business Readership survey said.

Some 68 per cent of those surveyed rate The Irish Times as "important business reading".
