On 5th November 2015, the iron ore mining company, Samarco, (a company resulting from a joint venture between BHP Billiton and Vale) caused an environmental and humanitarian disaster in Brazil’s Valadares region of the Rio Doce water basin when its tailings dam failed. What responsibility does an organisation have for its subsidiaries when it comes to managing risk, particularly when the enterprise is in a developing country?
