Project on MNC'S

2. INTRODUCTION
A multinational corporation (MNC) is a company that has business operations
in at least one country other than its home country. By some definitions, it
also generates at least 25% of its revenue outside of its home country.
Generally, a multinational company has offices, factories, or other facilities in
different countries around the world as well as a centralized headquarters
which coordinates global management.
Multinational companies can also be known as international, stateless, or
transnational corporate organizations or enterprises. Some may have budgets
that exceed those of small countries.
Multinational companies can make direct investments in foreign countries.
Many are based in developed nations. Advocates say they create high-paying
jobs and technologically advanced goods in countries that otherwise would
not have access to such opportunities or goods.
