Corruption and Business in Emerging Markets
By: Geoffrey Jones, Tarun Khanna and Nataliya Langburd Wright
Abstract
The case is built around video clips from top business leaders in emerging markets who were interviewed for Harvard Business School’s innovative Creating Emerging Markets oral history project. Corruption is a widespread problem in emerging markets, and this case is focused on the agency of business in this issue. It uses the interview material to explore definitions of corruption; how it impacts business in emerging markets; how it can be addressed, by both the private and the public sectors; and the responsibility of both business and policy-makers to address corruption. The Video Supplement to the case contains short excerpts from eight business leaders in India, Sudan, Turkey, and the United Arab Emirates addressing these issues.
