Our research extends beyond economic analysis to include policy advice to developing countries and to the UK Department for International Development, the European Commission and Parliament, the World Bank and the World Trade Organization. The team works with other economists in Europe and in developing countries. Projects range from multi-year multi-country comparative analysis to studies to answer immediate policy questions.
