Business Planning, Behavioural Economics and Corporate Law

Understand relevant business trends, corporate law and social responsibility, and how behavioral choices could affect your organisation.

Organisations face challenges in navigating how technologies affect their organisation as well as regulations. The latest corporate laws and corporate social responsibility may also impact how business operate. Micro- and macro-economic challenges can make it difficult for organisations to compete and provide services they desire. UCL’s expertise on labour practices and technology, relevant business and corporate laws, analyses on market trends and issues, consumer and social behaviour, and econometric analyses can help organisations address some of these critical challenges.
