[PDF] George Soros and NGOs Call for Rules to Require Corporations to Disclose Payments

International financier and philanthropist George Soros launched a call to governments across the globe for transnational resource extraction companies to 'Publish What You Pay'. Mr. Soros has teamed up with a coalition of over 30 NGOs to insist that oil, gas and mining companies must publish net taxes, fees, royalties and other payments as a condition for being listed on international stock exchanges and financial markets. The coalition includes Amnesty International, CAFOD, Christian Aid, Friends of the Earth, Global Witness, Oxfam, Save the Children and Transparency International.
