Economic Evidence & Data Analytics

The evidence behind every other area: surveys, research and models designed to be defended under adversarial scrutiny.

Discuss a matter

Every argument in a regulatory, legal or policy matter rests on evidence: what consumers actually do, how a market actually responds, and what would have happened otherwise. Evidence built for a business decision often fails once an opposing expert takes it apart. Evidence built for a proceeding has to anticipate that from the start.

VA Partners designs and runs the surveys, market research and economic models behind our other work, and for clients and counsel who need evidence of their own. We design samples and questionnaires that a regulator or a court will accept, build econometric and simulation models from the data available, and document every step so the work can be checked and reproduced.
