James Black

James is a Fellow at the Fraser of Allander Institute. He specialises in economic policy, modelling, trade and climate change.



His work includes the production of economic statistics to improve our understanding of the economy, economic modelling and analysis to enhance the use of these statistics for policymaking, data visualisation to communicate results impactfully, and economic policy to understand how data can be used to drive decisions in Government.



For example, he is particularly interested in better understanding the relationship between exports and the resulting outcomes for different parts of society.



James also employs a number of multi-discliplinary skills in his work and he runs a number of the FAI's operations. These include managing teams for project management ops, web, publication design, digital marketing, and more.
