CEESP main activity is to undertake economic, political and financial research and to disseminate its findings through studies, lectures, seminars, publications, and meetings with government authorities, NGOs and the media.

The analysis and research undertaken by CEESP is generated from a specific demand - i.e. the need of companies and government authorities to have timely and reliable information for sound decision making - or by the initiative of its research staff. In addition, the Center constantly monitors, analyzes and proposes public policies that contribute to the further development of the country. As part of its work on public policy definition and assessment of their economic and social impact, CEESP follows up the initiatives that are being discussed in the Congress.
