About us
We help companies with their biggest challenges – market strategies, regulatory reviews, competition inquiries. And we help governments design innovative policies and regulatory systems. Economics is (nearly) everywhere and the economist’s toolkit is large. Clients are surprised at the breadth of our work. Not just the costs of supply, movements in demand, pricing and competitive dynamics. But we are also experts in finance, statistical modelling, game theory, market research and even the psychological side of economics. And we’ve worked in almost every sector imaginable, from fertilisers and oil rigs to handbags and iPads. In some sectors, economics is so critical that we’ve also built specialist knowledge. Our powerful tools and sector knowledge are valuable. But we try not to stop there. Making an impact for clients means understanding the issues, whether it’s the commercial reality of the business; what is really driving customer behaviour; or the political context. We are also aware that our clients want clear and simple advice, from people they trust. So we place a lot of emphasis on our communications, and on human relationships. We provide complex analysis but plain language – English, German, French or Spanish. Our reports are often used in legal proceedings and so our evidential standards are high. We never “write to order”. Our work is respected because we are independent and obsessive about the truth. We work with clients all over the world and have offices in Berlin, Brussels, Cologne, Dublin, Madrid, London and Paris. Our sister company in Australia works from Sydney and Melbourne.

💬 What is trade in services—and why does it matter so much for Africa’s growth and development? 🌐 Often called the invisible trade, services are a vital but often overlooked part of global trade conversations. In the latest Trade Knowledge Matters podcast episode, Frontier’s Amar Breckenridge is joined by Beatrice Chaytor, Head of Trade in Services at the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) Secretariat and Dr. Prachi Agarwal, Research Fellow at ODI Global. Together, they unpack how services can drive structural transformation, boost productivity, and support economic diversification—plus how digitalisation is reshaping services trade. 🎧 Tune in to the full conversation here: https://lnkd.in/gRDeVD4h #TradeinServices #DigitalTrade #TradePolicy #GlobalTrade
What exactly is trade in services? Why is it such a crucial part of trade and development, especially for Africa? Often referred to as the invisible trade, trade in services is frequently overlooked in trade policy discussions—especially in an era where tariffs dominate the conversation.

They also explore the impact of digitalisation on services trade and much more. 🎧 Listen to the full episode here: https://lnkd.in/gRDeVD4h #TradeinServices #DigitalTrade #AfCFTA #TradePolicy #GlobalTrade #TradeKnowledgeMatters
