Summary
When oil conglomerate Shell stunned investors by announcing a 20 percent reduction in its proven reserves, pensions and portfolios suffered around the world. This program reveals a pattern of exaggeration and cover-up at the company's top level -- specifically involving the former chairman and head of production. Raising complex and timely questions, the program is an unflinching analysis of a failure in business ethics.; BBCW broadcast.
