Economic Analysis

As part of the Entrepreneurship and Small Business program, started with grant funds from the Small Business Administration, the Arrowhead Center conducts policy analyses and economic impact studies in support of the small business community in New Mexico. Policy analyses are performed in response to specific requests for information by businesses, government, and university leaders to help formulate policy. These analyses span a wide variety of topics of interest to the small business community, such as tax policy and health care policy affecting employees. The Arrowhead Center performs policy analyses by examining the impact of a change in policy on economic indicators. These analyses are posted in full length below.
