Financial Economics

CRA’s Financial Economics Practice has advised clients, their legal teams, and regulators on matters relating to economics and finance in arbitration, other litigation proceedings, and regulatory design and implementation.

Our experts provide opinions on valuations and damages associated with breaches of contract, national laws, and international treaties and the effects of market rules, processes, and contracts on prices and competition. We also provide advice to governments, firms, regulators, and trade bodies on matters involving financial services regulation, optimal pricing decisions, structuring contracts, and understanding competition in financial services markets.

Our experts have supported US clients with regulatory reviews conducted by the Federal Reserve Board, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Trade Commission, the Department of Justice, the Office of Thrift Supervision, and the Department of Housing and Urban Development.

Our experts have provided litigation support on cases involving securitizations, loan pricing, credit scoring, and loan servicing.

We use a combination of finance and economics professionals to enable us to provide the right combination of skills for each project.
