Insight-driven support for economic and infrastructure growth
Economics, policy, and infrastructure capital
Sustainable growth demands prioritisation of national development agendas—anchored in economics, policy coherence, and outcomes that matter for business and society
In an evolving landscape, organisations across sectors need strategic-led approaches to stay competitive, profitable, and resilient.
Our Economics, policy, and infrastructure capital (EPIC) team brings deep capability across economics, policy, infrastructure planning, and project finance advisory.
Operating at the public-private interface, we work with government ministries and agencies at the federal and state level, as well as regulated industries. We help you assess feasibility of opportunities and make informed business decisions that advance your strategic goals.

Making informed policy and investment decisions from strategy to execution
The economic landscape is resetting priorities across government, business, and society. This includes the policy direction of the government, investment decisions of businesses, and how stakeholders work with one another to maximise socioeconomic benefits.
Consider these questions:
What is the impact of government programmes, initiatives, and projects on sectors of society and on the broader economy?
Are you taking a strategy-led approach to achieve your desired outcomes and ensuring optimised resource allocation?
Which aspects of the business and operating model must change in the short- and long-term?
With local and international experience, we advise across a broad spectrum of economic, policy, and regulatory issues. Our work spans critical sectors: digital economy, transportation and logistics, agriculture, trade, green growth, tourism, education, and affordable housing.
Our insights help shape strategy, build trust, and deliver transformation. For the public sector, that means executable reform. For the private sector, it means sharper capital allocation and profitable, sustainable growth.

Building a better future and creating value through infrastructure investment
Infrastructure gaps remain significant. Governments need bankable, cost-effective solutions and innovative funding models. At the same time, investor appetite for infrastructure is rising. To convert opportunity into outcomes, both public authorities and private capital must stay agile and relevant to realise value in infrastructure investments to deliver better services in the communities they serve.
Consider these questions:
Do you have a clear, evidence-based view of near- and long-term infrastructure and asset needs to achieve your targeted outcomes?
Are you rigorously assessing the value of new opportunities—or the restructuring of asset-intensive investments?
Are you exploring alternative funding, procurement, or delivery models to unlock capacity and value?
We operate at the public-private interface, advising across the full infrastructure lifecycle—from comprehensive business case and project feasibility advice to transaction structuring including public-private partnership (PPPs). Our approach designs flexible, innovative solutions that create a strong foundation for successful delivery.
