BMA Municipal Studies

BMA Management Consulting Inc. prepares an annual municipal comparative study on behalf of participating Ontario municipalities.

The study identifies both key quantifiable indicators and selective environmental factors that should be considered as part of a comprehensive evaluation of a local municipality’s financial condition. Use of the study over a number of years provides trends to allow decision makers to monitor selected indicators over time.
