Information is a key term for all sciences that use symbols as a means of their communication, and it comes from communication. Information, as a resource, increases in value when used unlike other resources. We can divide them according to different criteria, but the basic one is according to their source type – original and derived. Since they have a time dimension as well, we can divide them into premature, timely and outdated ones. The value of any information decreases over time. Therefore, premature information are most often used in the business world since they enable long-term planning of business activities. The only obstacle to the rapid transmission of information is multilingualism, which is, in the modern world, mastered by learning other languages. Business information are in the service of business functions. The amount of information is growing, thus it is necessary to set criteria for their selection, evaluation of quality and value. The proper functioning of the market is hampered by information asymmetry, a situation where one person has more information than the other. The area of business information is an increasingly dominant area of business. They are used in all areas of a business organization. Information trade is becoming a very important source of power for information companies and associations. The only type of information that is important for an individual business entity is the information that is useful for performing their work, and the basic source of business information is their field of activity and business personnel structure. The fact is that we have entered into a completely new information and communication era, and we have yet to see in which direction it will take society.
