CEPA’s strength is our ability to combine economics with a practical understanding of financial and product markets and public policy issues. The key themes that arise across each of our practice areas are: Public Private Partnerships – the involvement of the private sector in delivery of public services and in economic development generally. Corporate and banking finance – the determination of financing requirements through detailed financial modelling, development of appropriate financial structures, and understanding of available sources of finance. Economics and regulation – the application of micro and macro economics across a wide spectrum of issues, and the development of methodologies and best practices for regulating non-contestable network businesses. Transaction advisory support – structuring and running competitive tender processes for private sector involvement in infrastructure and other projects and financings.   © Copyright 2005 Cambridge Economic Policy Associates
