Market and Regulation Research
Creating a solid foundation for your business
Understanding the market, the relevant legislation and the sector specific regulations is vital to smooth the way to successful business development. Our experience tells us that this is an area that many businesses prefer to avoid, which can be a costly mistake.
At OBM we understand the importance of establishing market and regulatory insights at the earliest opportunity and we will work with
you to understand the market fully at the outset to help your organisation achieve future business success.
Market research
Our research for your market entry will include the current market size, its recent history, its likely potential, possible barriers to progress, demographics, competitor analysis, plus recommendations for distributors, agents and partners which we believe could offer you the best long-term
support.

Similarly, for a UK or EU company who is interested in the Japanese market, we can provide research on the relevant Japanese regulation.

Our research method
We conduct research by referring to various databases in English and in other languages such as French and German. We often carry our interviews to the government organisations, businesses and research institutions in order to capture information which are not open to public and also understand stories behind the scene.
