Learn to analyze markets, firms, GDP, inflation, economic policy, and international trade with confidence.

This Specialization helps learners understand how markets work, how firms make decisions, and how governments and global trade systems shape economic outcomes. Through a structured learning path, you’ll explore demand and supply, consumer behavior, market equilibrium, firm production, pricing strategies, competition, GDP, inflation, fiscal policy, monetary policy, exchange rates, and balance of payments.
