SCIAF's Undermining Development report

The presence of multinational companies in developing countries can bring many benefits.

Yet not all big businesses can be relied upon to be responsible global citizens – and not all developing country governments have the will or the ability to regulate them effectively.

This can lead to negative consequences for poor and vulnerable communities and, in some cases, human rights violations.
