Tools we use

TheCIE has a long standing commitment to developing cutting edge quantitative modelling tools suitable for a wide variety of purposes and clients. In 20 years of research and consulting, we’ve found formal quantitative models to be incredibly powerful.

TheCIE has built, extended and applied dozens of general equilibrium models for various purposes of economic analysis. We currently have in-house models that include economywide models for Australia and other countries and commodity specific models for meat, grains, sugar, dairy, horticulture and irrigated agriculture. We are also involved in consortium based model development including ongoing development of the G-Cubed suite of models (of which we have a unique in-house version), and regular use of the GTAP global model. We have developed innovative models for international education, tourism, international trade promotion, industries and R&D funding.

To see a brief description of the following models please click on the links below:

• Dynamic general equilibrium models
• Macroeconomic and other models
• Multi-country static general equilibrium models
• Single country multi-sector and multi-region static general equilibrium models
• Industry specific models
• Regional models
  

Our modelling capabilities are integrated into all aspects of our economic analysis so our modelling services cover a wide client base. These include international agencies, federal and state government departments and agencies as well as the private sector. See also Trade, Funds Management, Commodities, Climate Change and Scenario Analysis. For expertise in this area - David Pearce or Dr Tingsong Jiang.
