economic impact
Market-moving effect measured
Economic impact refers to the effect that an event, policy, or activity has on the financial health of a region, industry, or population.
The term appears frequently in studies measuring how something—a factory closing, a stadium opening, a natural disaster—affects jobs, income, and spending: The hurricane's economic impact was estimated at twelve billion dollars.
Such assessments often weigh both direct effects and ripple consequences throughout related sectors.
