2019 Global Business Services Report
The Livingstone Global Business Services Report provides insights into the trends and activities driving one of the largest sectors of the global economy. A sector of extreme breadth and depth, the industries contained within it generally consist of asset-light, people-heavy businesses, providing low barriers to entry due to lower capital requirements.
