Глобальная горнодобывающая промышленность: бои «без перчаток»PwC Russia
Ожидалось, что 2014 год станет непростым для глобальной горнодобывающей промышленности из-за снижения цен на сырьевые товары и усиления краткосрочной волатильности. Положение 40 крупнейших горнодобывающих компаний было изначально неоднозначным. Теперь же игрокам отрасли и вовсе придется забыть о церемониях и вести бой «без перчаток»: результаты ежегодного отчета PwC «Горнодобывающая промышленность» показывают, что отрасли придется столкнуться с увеличением масштабов государственного вмешательства, внутренними конфликтами между участниками рынка, а также усилением активности акционеров.

BHP Billiton, the world’s largest diversified resources company – producing oil as well as coal, copper, diamonds, iron ore, manganese, nickel, uranium and a number of other minerals – boasts of a strong reputation for corporate responsibility. Communities affected by its operations may well believe that such a reputation is unjustified. London Mining Network and others produced an alternative report on the company ready for its London AGM on 29 October 2009 (see low resolution pdf file at http://www.piplinks.org/system/files/BHP+Billiton+Alternative+Report.pdf). That report was expanded for the company's Australian AGM on 26 November. This version of the report is a high resolution pdf file (12.7 megabytes).
