ConsultEcon Management & Economic Insight

Impact Evaluations describe how a development action or investment will affect an area's social and economic well being.  ConsultEcon has developed models for a wide variety of impact evaluations including economic impact evaluations, fiscal impact analyses, secondary (spin-off) impacts studies and community impacts and community benefits evaluations.  Many governments require economic impact studies for project approval and/or funding. 

 

Fiscal Impact Analysis

Fiscal Impact analysis estimates the new tax revenues due to a new development and ongoing operation; the additional fiscal costs due to a project are also estimated for some projects.
