Does English seem to be the universal language of business?

[klassicdoll]

In terms of conducting business and promoting global trade, English has emerged as the de facto language worldwide. Apart from having a common language among geographically scattered businesses, it is also the language utilized in official business proceedings. English proficiency can make life easier for people who speak it, even though it is not a prerequisite for success in the corporate world.
