This also brings to light the matter that all liability, confidentiality and other clauses that we agree to abide by when we hire such firms need to gone through in minute detail to ensure that the information gathered during engagements with such entities are subject to mutual discussion and agreement before being published.
Many of these organizations draw their liability and confidentiality clauses in a manner to ensure they CYA.
In my opinion, this is very unethical of such a firm to report. This seems like a design to de-stabilize the Indian economy.
The report should be withdrawn and an apology should be tendered.
