The chief legal officer (CLO) of your company is impressed with your knowledge of global economics and has asked you to gather data on institutions governing trade and the types of trade restrictions. Such knowledge is essential to your company’s success in domestic and foreign markets. You are to present your findings at the quarterly meeting of global operations.
Help with this Unit 4 project is in Chapters 12 and 16 of Managerial Economics: Foundations of Business Analysis and Strategy.
