ABOUT US

Econlex Corp. was created in 2000, to fill a gap in the Latin American market of law and economics consulting services. The increasing adoption of pro-market policies prevailing in the region in the 1990s called for specialized expertise in the development of new rules and business strategies. Our firm brings together experience of policymaking and solid economic theory, as required by private and public sectors in the Developing World.

Our analytical capabilities combine the theoretical foundations of law and economics along with practical expertise in policy enforcement. Our experts are specialized in advising corporations, governments and institutions in developing countries and well attuned to their needs.

We supply our clients with legal and economic counseling in matters dealing with antitrust, institutional building, governance, public policy and economic regulation. Our objective is to identify the incentives and corporate governance conditions that enhance business competitiveness and improve institutional performance. Our experience covers several industries, including telecommunications and internet, energy, water supply, consumer products and professional services, mainly in the Latin American region. We provide expert advice on highly technical issues, such as the competitive effects of mergers and acquisitions, barriers to entry, calculations of damages, measurement of the market share and market concentration, and the impact of increased regulation.

Applying our in-depth knowledge of institutional development, we are able to provide insightful, value-added advice to our clients. Econlex offers clients practical and innovative support which avoids narrowing solutions or methodologies.
