Why Attend
International business is increasingly conducted under the influence of a growing body of international law. These set the framework for international trade, and competition in trade, with the aim of removing unnecessary barriers. The World Trade Organisation (WTO) has been at the forefront of establishing global trading practices, but other multi-lateral and bilateral agreements need to be considered. This course provides an introduction to this legal framework for the non-specialist.
