PricewaterhouseCoopers supports the Fraser of Allander Institute Economic Commentary. Through this association, Fraser of Allander (FAI) and PricewaterhouseCoopers also produce a Business Review.

First published in July 1975 the Quarterly Economic Commentary, as it became known, was viewed as the premier source of independent and leading edge analysis of Scotland’s economy.

This new association between PricewaterhouseCoopers and University of Strathclyde’s Business School provides the FAI with the support to continue and develop the Economic Commentary. This association will lead to a number of changes to the frequency, format and content of the Commentary, and the development of a supporting Business Review.

The first issue of the new Commentary on 18 June will be available in electronic format only through our dedicated website which The University of Strathclyde Business School and PricewaterhouseCoopers also launched on 3 June. The website will provide free access to download the Economic Commentary, related reports, links to Scottish economic data and access to archive copies.

Susan Hart, Dean of the University of Strathclyde Business School said:
“I am delighted that this association with PricewaterhouseCoopers will enable the Fraser of Allander Institute to continue to publish the Economic Commentary, which has been an independent, authoritative and influential voice on the Scottish economy for more than 30 years.”

Frank Blin, head of UK regions for PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP commented:
“The Commentary has been integral in benchmarking Scotland’s economic performance over the years. It has often pushed the boundaries in considering our approach to the economy and questioned the established way of thinking about issues. PwC felt it was vital that this piece of work was maintained and we are proud to sponsor the Economic Commentary going forward.”
