Economic Intelligence
Te Waka publishes a range of economic intelligence reports which highlight the key indicators and trends of the Waikato economy, and provide expert insight and opinion.
The Economic Radar, currently published monthly, started in April 2020 to graphically track our region’s progress during and after the Covid-19 lockdown. We also publish quarterly economic updates where we highlight and discuss topics of interest to our region.
These publications are produced with the support of Waikato Regional Council Economists Blair Keenan and Sarah MacKay.
