Business report - Group prepared, individually graded 

In groups of 3-5 people, you will choose a case company and conduct a comprehensive investigation of international trade and investment policies to support a SME UK company expand into a selected market of your choice. As each student will submit approximately 2,000 words so the report will cover between 6,000 (3 students per group) to 10,000 words (5 students per group). 

The final topics and case company for your group report must be approved by your tutor. 

Each student must select individual areas of international trade and investment theory to investigate for the case company, and the whole report must provide a cohesive advice to the case company (as an example, one student may consider economic environments, another student may consider trade tariffs, etc.)

This report will require extensive research and data analysis, and data presented should not be older than 5 years (unless vital to the case presented)
