While economics is at our core, we employ a multidisciplinary approach that includes the use of statistics, econometrics, game theory, mathematics, and computer science to apply economics to challenging issues faced by our clients in a number of areas, including antitrust and competition policy, communications, energy/environment, intellectual property, transfer pricing, and securities/finance and mass torts. With our broad range of practices and expertise, NERA provides you with the opportunity to focus on the areas that interest you most.
