Most Preferred Corporate Languages worldwide

Can anyone tell me which languages are most used and required in corporate sector internationally and their sequence according to their importance ??

 

The most commonly mentioned are English, Mandarin, French, Arabic, and Spanish.

However, it depends a lot on your business and market. My two most useful languages after English for my role are not on that list, and might not be on many peoples lists either.

 

German might be useful for actuarial roles in Europe. Whether that's actually true, I don't know.

 

thanks oxy & calum !!
