Trade & Policy Advisory
Impact assessment of tariffs, sanctions, customs-union integration, and trade-policy shifts. Partial- and general-equilibrium modeling (GTAP/GEMPACK) to quantify how policy changes ripple through markets and supply chains.
Services
Advisory across the full trade question.
From high-level policy strategy to granular supply chain mapping — engagements are scoped to the decision you need to make.
Supply Chain & GVC Intelligence
End-to-end supply chain mapping and global value chain modeling across automotive, electronics, apparel, and metals — identifying supplier relationships, trade flows, and value-added linkages across multi-tier networks.
Economic Diagnostics
Country economic memoranda and private-sector diagnostics: export competitiveness, FDI performance, and trade-led growth strategy, delivered with the documentation standards and peer review of multilateral work.
Trade Finance Studies
Trade-finance diagnostics in the style of joint WTO/IFC work — assessing financing gaps, banking-sector capacity, and access barriers that constrain trade in emerging markets.
Data Triangulation & Validation
Defensible analysis in data-scarce environments using mirror data, corporate filings, customs databases, and industry sources — with documented, auditable rules for resolving conflicting sources.
Capacity Building & Briefings
Training on trade-policy analysis and modeling for practitioners without advanced economics training, plus briefings and methodology defense for officials and executive audiences.
