About NERA Economic Consulting

Founded in 1961, NERA was an early specialist in applying economics to legal, regulatory, and business questions. It is a subsidiary of Marsh and operates as a global economic consulting practice.

NERA advises law firms, corporations, governments, and regulators on complex disputes and policy matters. Its work includes antitrust and competition analysis, commercial litigation, damages, valuation, securities and finance, labor economics, energy regulation, and public policy.

The firm is particularly suited to analytically intensive work: economists and research staff use econometrics, statistics, finance, valuation models, and large datasets to produce reports, damages analyses, policy recommendations, and testimony for courts, arbitration panels, and regulators.
