Corruption in International Business. The Obligations of Multinational Firms

Susan Rose-Ackerman

Zeitschrift für Wirtschafts- und Unternehmensethik - Journal for Business, Economics & Ethics, 2018, vol. 19, issue 1, 6-24

Abstract: Multinational firms are frequently implicated in corruption involving cross-border deals. Given the weakness of international anti-corruption institutions, this essay argues that multinational firms have an ethical obligation to refrain from making payoffs. This is especially true for those firms whose size and market power exceed those of many nation-states.
