Economic modelling

Our work is supported by a full set of conceptual, modelling and research tools (both qualitative and quantitative) including:

• Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) modelling

• Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) modelling

• Cost Benefit Analysis (CBA)

• Social Return on Investment (SROI)

These tools allow us to assess the potential economic impact of policies, regulations, projects and company operations with the aim of enabling decision-making that is driven by evidence and data.

Our modelling principles are based on transparency and a depth of understanding within each of the sectors that we work. We believe that the quality of model results is heavily dependent on the quality of input into the model and the applicability of the assumptions that drive the model. As such we take great care in crafting model input that is accurate, reliable and credible.
