Oxford Economics leading Focus Economics Analyst Forecast Awards 2025

Oxford Economics is the proud recipient of 103 awards in the latest FocusEconomics Analyst Forecast Awards. This achievement underscores our position as the world’s foremost provider of economic forecasts and analysis. 

With over 400 economists and analysts worldwide, Oxford Economics has demonstrated exceptional forecasting precision in both advanced and emerging economies. The team has been recognised as the best overall forecasters across several key markets including the UK, Italy and Denmark.  

In addition, we have secured success in a wide range of emerging and frontier markets from Vietnam and Egypt to South Africa and Brazil. We also excel in critical metrics such as interest rates and exchange rates for countries including Spain, Ireland and India. 

“In today’s environment of unprecedented economic uncertainty—from tariff shocks to geopolitical shifts—businesses need forecasts they can trust,” said Innes McFee, Head of Macro, Industry and City Services at Oxford Economics. “These awards validate our integrated approach that combines global perspective with local expertise. We will continue to deliver rigorous economic forecasts and actionable economic insights, assisting our clients in understanding how the economy will influence their specific markets and operations.” 

Oxford Economics continues to enhance its capabilities beyond traditional forecasting. Our investments in nowcasting methodologies and sentiment data analysis enable us to identify emerging trends and provide clients with early economic signals before they appear in official statistics. Additionally, we are expanding our AI Assistant tool, which allows clients to efficiently extract and customise insights directly relevant to their business needs.
