The last few years have revealed a growing need for economic consulting services in the areas of regulation and competition, in response to the pervasiveness of microeconomics in public policymaking, closer economic integration and the strength of economic growth. Moreover, the increased complexity of economic relations, particularly in regulated markets, the more economic approach to merger control and the mixed (legal-economic) nature of regulatory agencies (CDC, CNE and CMT) have ushered in a new environment in which economic advice must be cross-referenced with other consultancy services of a legal or strategic nature.

Solchaga Recio & asociados believes the best response to this changed environment is a global approach to project development. It accordingly offers a wide range of economic consulting services that it supplements with input from legal or other advisory teams. This means we can deliver our analyses in clear and unambiguous terms suited to all types of audience.
