The faculty of Nanyang Business School has been writing cases with an Asian focus for over a decade, covering businesses from Kazakhstan to Vietnam.

In 2000, the Asian Business Case Centre was set up by the Nanyang Business School to promote the writing and use of case studies at the business school. In the same year it also embarked on a collaboration with the Richard Ivey School of Business (Ivey), University of Western Ontario, to jointly write case studies and encourage the use of case studies in Singapore and Asia.

The Nanyang Case Collection to-date holds over 150 case studies. The cases have been categorised by year: (1) 2000 & beyond and (2) 1992 to 2000.
