Best Answer

So-called "footloose companies" including transnational corporations, are not dependent on or otherwise tied to a certain geographic location. Except where impractical due to the costs of shipping goods, they can relocate to countries where resources (including labor) are cheapest.

Are TNC's good or bad?

TNCs are both good and bad depending on how you view it. TNCs ( Transnational Corporations) do depend on LEDCs (Less Economically Developed Countries) because it costs less to pay the workers in a LEDC then a MEDC ( More Economically Developed Countries). Although a TNC does pay about next to nothing, it provides a person from a LEDC to acquire new skills and also earn some money whilst doing this. But, whilst working for a TNC, all the profits go back to the country the TNC originated from and also anything produced from the LEDC will get imported back to the originating country meaning the LEDC gains nothing in the process. TNCs do provide the LEDC new technology they would of had access to before but the TNC may leave the country anytime if cheaper labour is found meaning sudden unemployment. TNCs usually leave a LEDC full of pollution. From that, TNCs are both good and bad depending on how one views it.
