The Need

Our globalised and ever-changing world dictates the need for us to be informed. We need quick, easy and cost-effective tools for analysis.

Trade policy and changes in trade policy be they bilateral, regional, or multilateral through the World Trade Organisation are a key policy priority of almost all governments There are currently over 400 trade agreements between countries and groups of countries notified to the WTO, and another 150-200 in the process of being negotiated.

Policy makers, analysts, academics, international organisations and journalists need appropriate tools for analysing such changes in trade policy.

Economists have sophisticated tools (computable general equilibrium modelling, econometrics) for analysing the potential impact of such agreements, but these tools are typically expensive, require highly skilled people to undertake the analysis, work at a fairly aggregate level, and often make very heroic assumptions of the underlying data. They are often unaffordable in cash terms and require very highly expert 'intelligent customers' who are often in even shorter supply than cash particularly but not only in developing countries.
