Economic Forecasting

Economic forecasts are generated by the Chapman Econometric Model - a quarterly econometric model of the United States, California, and Orange, Los Angeles and Riverside/San Bernardino counties - developed by Chapman faculty and students. The Chapman Model makes it possible to forecast the direction of key economic indicators and thus enables local communities to make more efficient planning and investment decisions. The growing recognition of the Anderson Center's research activities is evident by research results quoted in Business Week, The Christian Science Monitor, The Los Angeles Times, The New York Times, Newsweek, The Orange County Register, Time Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, and U.S.A. Today.
