Evidence-Based Policy Impact Assessment

In a fast-changing and complex world, policymakers are tasked with the increasingly difficult challenge of designing, developing and implementing policy. Having the right evidence to weigh up the different policy options available to you so that you can make an informed decision is a critical step in the policy process.

Informed by the latest data and innovation, we can help you better understand the outcomes of different approaches and so avoid unintended consequences.

We do this by harnessing advanced economic models and data analysis. This provides you with detailed insights into the potential social, economic and environmental outcomes of different policy approaches.
