Economics

Efficient transport is a critical component of economic development, globally and nationally. Transport availability affects global development patterns and can be a boost or a barrier to economic growth within individual nations. Transportation investments link factors of production together in a web of relationships between producers and consumers to create a more efficient division of production, leverage geographical comparative advantage, and provide the means to expand economies of scale and scope.

 

FAO Consulting has specific expertise in considering the benefits of transport investments where standard models do not give the full picture.  With this in mind, we develop new methods of assessment and analysis which allow policymakers or investors to understand the potential impacts of investing in transport infrastructure.
