Who We Are

Frontier is an economic consultancy with energy, imagination and flair

Now one of the largest economic consultancies in Europe, we started Frontier Economics in 1999 wanting to do things differently. Owned entirely by our staff, our business attracts the best people and the most interesting work. Our principles remain. Our clients remain happy.

Advice that makes all the difference

Advice that makes all the difference

We go beyond the numbers to find out what’s really going on. Our clients enjoy objective advice, clearly expressed. With our help, they make better decisions and get better results.

What defines Frontier?

What defines Frontier?

Uncompromising thinking – we deliver exceptional work with integrity and objectivity.

Looking beyond the obvious – we think more widely than the immediate question, and deliver more than expected.

A refreshing experience – we’re smart and friendly people who communicate complex ideas with clarity.

Our past, present and future

Frontier Economics was founded by a team of economists with imagination. We wanted to create a sustainable business, working on the most interesting problems for the most interesting clients.

The bedrock of our business is that we are owned entirely by our staff. This means everyone is driven to deliver the highest quality work, with an independent mind, for clients we really care about.

People like what we do, and our business has grown. The problems we solve change constantly, but our values do not. Our clients come back again and again, and many of our founders still work within the business.

Valuing diversity and inclusion

We are a firm with a diverse workforce spread across different countries, encompassing many cultures and outlooks. We want to reflect and embrace the power of diversity and cultural difference in everything we do for our clients and through our internal work.

We are an inclusive workplace where people are free to be who they want to be and able to bring their true selves into the workplace. We will be bold, visible and proactive to make sure that Frontier is and continues to be a workplace that embraces diversity.

A shared work ethic

We work with clients all over the world from our offices in Berlin, Brussels, Cologne, Dublin, Madrid, London and Paris. 

We’ve grown through recessions, booms and busts and count some of the most admired organisations in the world among our long-standing clients. 

We believe in strong client relationships, have a passion for understanding the truth and employ people who want to make a difference.

Our way of working is also shared by our sister company Frontier Economics Pty Ltd in Australia and Singapore. For more information on their work visit www.frontier-economics.com.au
