Question

A current term naming corporations that are not affiliated with any particular nation and whose shareholders and directorships are scattered around the globe is?

Answer 1

In my opinion, it is multinational corporation. Of course, these corporations were also born within a particular nation, but as soon as they grew enough, they spread their business elsewhere, in two or more countries which are not their home countries. They may produce goods in many different countries, and they often sell them across the globe.
