The question

Economic impact analysis helps understand the effects of a project, a policy or an investment. CAPPR assesses the economic repercussions of public or private projects, investments, reforms and development programs. The goal is to determine how an initiative can influence economic activity, employment, incomes, public finances, businesses and the communities concerned.

Our approach

Depending on the available data and the chosen method, the analysis can measure direct, indirect and induced effects on gross domestic product, employment, household income and tax revenue, at the national, regional, local or sectoral level.

Examples of mandates

  • economic impact of an infrastructure project
  • effects of an industrial or agricultural investment
  • economic contribution of a sector
  • effects of a reform on employment and incomes
  • economic repercussions of a local development program
  • supply chain effects
