The front page of the Sunday, December 2, 2012, edition of The New York Times featured an analysis of US incentive deals based upon Investment Consulting Associates (ICA)’s online incentive tracking tool and database, ICAincentives.com.
While examining incentive trends across the 50 states, the article “As Companies Seek Tax Deals, Governments Pay High Price” notes that many state programs do not identify specific corporate beneficiaries and, as a result, the authors had to rely on the ICAincentives.com database to provide up to date and reliable data for their analysis.
CEO Dr. Douglas van den Berghe comments:
“It is very difficult for companies and the public sector to source real time information required to make sound global location investment decisions. In particular with regards to incentive packages offered by governments to corporations around the world. This is one of the driving forces behind the development of both ICAincentives.com and LocationSelector.com.”
ICA offers both online tools as well as independent consulting to companies exploring new investment opportunities locally and around the globe. The client-centered advice provided by the firm’s expert professionals helps match business needs, to location opportunity based upon sound strategic, financial, and operational metrics.
