OpenEconomics, founded in Rome in 2013, is regarded as one of the most relevant players in the socio-economic analysis segment within the Italian landscape. The company supports institutions and large companies in the evaluation of policies and investment projects in the sustainability space and in the access and deployment of public funds for the energy transition.

Leveraging on a robust set of economic models and with best-in-class international evaluation practices, OpenEconomics supports its clients throughout every stage of the investment process, including market outlook analysis, definition of key performance indicators, focusing on the evaluation of economic, social and environmental impact, as well as monitoring and reporting. In this space, OpenEconomics has developed an extensive track record performing complex analyses for institutions and private companies in over 30 countries and in a wide range of sectors, such as electricity distribution and transmission, gas infrastructure, telecommunication networks, transport and water infrastructure, sport, culture, public sector, real estate, manufacturing and research.

Investment and Environmental Thesis

In the current context of geopolitical instability, climate change and evolving transition policies, understanding market evolution becomes more complex as risks arising from uncertainty increase. Therefore, access to advanced tools both for the rigorous assessment of investment decisions and for the mitigation of the associated risks becomes essential. For this reason, Algebris Investments has decided to enter this pivotal market segment in which OpenEconomics has demonstrated its ability to respond effectively, independently and transparently to the new demand for socio-economic analysis and public funding.

Companies like OpenEconomics, which operate in the field of non-financial analysis with relevant technical expertise, play a crucial role in supporting companies and institutions as they face the challenges of the future. This is particularly important in the context of the changes imposed by the European Union’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). Companies will need increasingly structured skills to analyse their data and understand the impact of their activities. OpenEconomics, with its innovative digital solutions and experience, is ideally positioned to provide this support.
