RAEM

Development of the new version of the Spatial Computable General Equilibrium (SCGE) model RAEM for the Netherlands

RAEM is the SCGE model for the Netherlands, built in the traditions of the new economic geography. The model takes an explicit account of the interregional transportation and labour flows. In case of the labour market the RAEM takes into account both commuting and migration. The present version of RAEM is build on the data for 1996 and integrates the production and consumption activities of 40 Dutch regions.

The main aim of the RAEM-TML project was to update the database of the model according to the year 2001 and to develop further the structure of the model by including the representation of international trade, more detailed governmental sector, different socio-economic groups and the explicit distinction between durable (cars) and nondurable (fuel) commodities.
