I believe the answer is:

dealing

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'doing business' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'dutch capital and part of london' is the wordplay.
'dutch capital' becomes 'd' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'and' says to put letters next to each other.
'part of london' becomes 'ealing' (I've seen this before).
'd'+'ealing'='DEALING'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for dealing that I've seen before include "Coping" , "Distributing (cards)" , "Making trades (with cards?)" , "Trading" , "Giving out cards" .)
