Applied quantitative impact analysis : a review of contemporary methods for evaluating programs serving businesses / by Manassé Drabo, Landry Kuate and Michael Willox.CS11-633/2026-63E-PDF

"This article presents a methodological framework for evaluating the economic impacts of public programs, applied to agencies like Crown corporations (e.g., Business Development Bank of Canada [BDC], Farm Credit Canada and Export Development Canada). Using difference-indifferences, event studies and survival analysis, it estimates quasi-causal effects on outcomes such as sales, employment and business longevity. The paper outlines each method's theory, implementation and data needs, emphasizing the value of Statistics Canada's linked datasets. It also discusses key assumptions with a case study on BDC illustrating practical application. The work promotes collaboration with Statistics Canada for evidence-based policy evaluation"--Abstract, page 3.
