POLITICAL ANALYSIS
We provide a Regulatory Information Service in Latin America and the Caribbean consisting of analyzing bills and mapping regional trends and stakeholders. We use different variables to anticipate future changes and key decisions for a given sector. We also use innovative tools to measure their degree of impact on business, civil society and/or the state/public sector.
Based on real-time monitoring of Governments and Legislative branches, international organizations and other relevant actors in Latin America and the Caribbean, we produce regular updated analyses of public policy throughout the region.
We develop stakeholder, scenario and conflict mapping, and undertake comparative analysis of regulatory trends and legislation.
We also offer presentations, training and technical assistance in regulatory, political and legislative processes to various sectors: private, public, academia, chambers of commerce, civil society organizations, among others.
We map and report on the regulations adopted by countries in Latin America and the Caribbean aimed at preventing and controlling the pandemic.
