Economic consultancies
Economics consultants use their specialist knowledge to provide independent expert advice
to clients, which can include large corporations, law firms, regulators and government
bodies. Although Economic Consultants do perform tradition economic tasks, for example,
reporting on trends in the market and performing quantitative analysis of economic
indicators, the scope of a consultant’s work usually encompasses a far wider range of issues.
For example, expert testimony from consultant economists can play a key role in
determining the outcome of complicated and often technical legal disputes.
A broad range of consultancies recruits Economists. The ones in the list below include
specialist economics, forecasting, development and economic research firms.
