Dredging company Van Oord, ING Bank and credit insurer Atradius are involved in a questionable project in Angola, according to leaked documents. According to Cees van Dam, professor of enterprise and human rights at RSM, Van Oord, Atradius and ING have not done enough research into the forced relocations. “These parties must now use their influence to ensure that the displaced residents are adequately compensated. If they do not, they themselves contribute to the violation of human rights. ”In a response, Van Oord and ING say they will commit themselves to compensation for the displaced residents.
