Welcome

Changes in public policy can produce many surprises.  Altering seemingly innocuous provisions in federal, state or local tax codes can dramatically affect the after-tax rates of return of various assets.  Likewise the increase of a state or local cigarette or alcohol excise can shift business activity into neighboring jurisdictions, affecting not only excise receipts, but income, property and sales tax revenues as well.

At Fiscal Economics, Inc. we understand the impact of policy change and use state-of-the-art economic analysis and sophisticated statistical modeling to discern the implications of policy change.

Simply estimating the effects of policy change however is often not enough.  Frequently it is necessary to communicate the effects to policymakers and the public.  At Fiscal Economics we have a wealth of experience both advising policymakers and broadcasting the effects of policy change to the broader public.
