Economic Assessment
Economic assessment includes the assessment of direct consequences, of indirect economic impacts, and cost-benefit analysis of options to counter terrorism. CREATE researchers have developed a comprehensive framework for analyzing and estimating the economic consequences of a terrorist attack. Our economic team has experience in the economic modeling of major disasters, cost-benefit analysis of major risk reduction decisions, and the impact of environmental changes on the behavior of economic agents.
