Good IB Dissertations topics

Hi there,

I am a MSc Management student graduating this year who will start to work as IB analyst in July.

I have to come up with an idea for my proposal research thesis and I was thinking to do some analysis on something that might be useful during my work. Since I am not still entirely in the industry I wanted to ask whether you have any research topics that you would suggest?  For example to identify the correlation between two variables, increase accuracy in sensitivity analysis through stochastic models, etc.

Thank you in advance!
