Why the English standard at HSG is the highest in European business education
HSG programmes we edit for — all disciplines covered
Why HSG students need specialist English editing
Europe's top business school. The highest English standard in European business academia.
HSG St. Gallen is not just a top university — it is the reference point for business academic English in continental Europe. MBF examiners have read McKinsey-authored research. MiM professors have taught at Wharton and LBS. MBA supervisors expect the same executive clarity and precision they would find in a Harvard Business Review article.
For non-native English speakers — and for many native English speakers writing business academic content for the first time — the gap between acceptable English and HSG-standard business English is real and measurable. Our professional proofreading and editing service for HSG students has been closing that gap since 2010.
Business academic writing is a distinct discipline. It is not the same as general academic writing, not the same as everyday business writing, and not the same as consulting slide decks. HSG examiners know the difference immediately. Our editors — with backgrounds in finance, strategy, economics, and business management — know it too.

Editing in action — HSG business English example
What professional HSG business English editing looks like
A real example from an HSG MBF dissertation on corporate strategy and financial performance — before and after professional editing. The before version is grammatically acceptable general English. The after version reads as HSG-standard business academic English. Your examiner notices the difference in the first paragraph.
Before: student draft
"The company decided to go into new markets in Southeast Asia because they wanted to make more money and be less dependent on European revenues. The results show that this worked well, with revenues going up by 23% in two years. This proves that geographic diversification is a good strategy for companies in this kind of situation."
After: professional HSG-level editing
"The firm pursued a strategy of geographic expansion into Southeast Asian markets, driven by an objective to diversify revenue streams and reduce concentration risk in European operations. The empirical evidence indicates that this strategic repositioning yielded significant results, with revenues increasing at a CAGR of 10.8% over the two-year review period. These findings suggest that geographic diversification can constitute an effective value-creation strategy for firms operating in mature, low-growth domestic markets."
"The firm" is the standard business academic entity reference — not "the company". "Pursued a strategy of" is the correct business strategy register for deliberate corporate action. These are the first signals an HSG examiner reads — and they establish the academic standard of everything that follows.
Business academic writing uses technical vocabulary for what are ultimately financial objectives. "Revenue diversification" and "concentration risk" are the correct financial strategy terms — not informal paraphrases. Finance-trained editors know these terms; general editors guess.
Two corrections: "revenues going up" → "revenues increasing" (register), and raw percentage change converted to CAGR (the correct metric for multi-period comparison). "Review period" is the standard business academic timeframe reference. A two-year 23% total gain = 10.8% CAGR — the precision a finance examiner expects.
Three corrections: "proves" → "suggest" (correct academic hedging — single case studies don't prove); "good" → "effective value-creation" (business academic precision); and added "for firms operating in mature markets" (scope limitation — a finding applies to a specific context, not universally).
Why HSG students need business English specialists
A general proofreader would not have changed "the company" to "the firm", or known that "revenues going up 23% in two years" should become "CAGR of 10.8% over the review period." These are business-specific conventions invisible to editors without finance or strategy backgrounds.
German academic writing produces long, clause-heavy sentences that carry directly into English. "The implementation of a strategy for the optimisation of cost structures through…" becomes in English: "The firm optimised its cost structure through…" Our German-aware editors make this correction systematically throughout HSG documents.
MBF and MiQE/F examiners read quantitative research all year. The difference between "revenues increased" and "revenues grew at a CAGR of 10.8%" is not style — it is the precision standard of finance academic writing. Our economics-trained editors apply this precision throughout your quantitative analysis sections.
"Proves" is overclaiming. "Suggests" is correct. "Demonstrates" sits between them. HSG finance and strategy examiners are particularly sensitive to claim precision — a dissertation that "proves" a finding from a single case study signals to an examiner that the writer doesn't understand research epistemology. Our editors calibrate hedging throughout.
