CIES affiliates have long contributed to debates about Australian services policy and have served as expert consultants for international governments and multilateral organizations (ASEAN, APEC, New Zealand Commerce Commision and the World bank).

This research program is led by Professor Christopher Findlay, Head of the School of Economics.
