Evidence that survives scrutiny
Decisions that will be questioned in estimates, audit or the press need evidence that holds up. We produce research, economic analysis and market intelligence to that standard, and we say plainly how we did it. The trade lane is led by a former US trade negotiator who sits on the World Economic Forum Global Futures Council on Trade and writes regularly on Indo-Pacific trade for a public audience. The practice works in two lanes: research for Australian government on its own sectors and regions, and trade and market intelligence across the Indo-Pacific for agencies and exporters.
Two lanes, one standard of evidence.
- Sector reports and landscape studies across government, health, education, construction, energy and technology
- Economic and regional economic analysis, including regional economic development strategies and investment cases
- Policy and framework reviews, and research into why government strategies stall and what makes them land
- Benefit-sharing and community economics research for renewable energy zones and major projects
- Market and industry insights for Austrade and Commonwealth agencies
- Trade policy, supply chain and export market analysis across the Indo-Pacific
- Geopolitical risk and its implications for Australian exporters and importers
Both lanes publish on this site. Reports are available to download, some free and some paid, and most can also be commissioned as a bespoke edition.
Every research output states its evidence classification, methodology, where AI assisted and which named analyst validated it.
Independent review of research design and analytical consistency is arranged where the brief calls for it.
