Doctors without borders: an economic, financial and socio-economic analysis

Abstract

In this paper we carry out an economic, financial and socio-economic analysis of Doctors Without Borders. To that end, we use information from different sources, the main one of which is the annual accounts report published from 2009 to 2014, including the beginning and end years. By means of a spreadsheet, and on the basis of this information, we obtain different ratios and financial magnitudes, will help us to analyse these data that are in line with the hardest years of the economic crisis. Therefore, all of these ratios and magnitudes are compared to a health sector average, through published annual accounts for us to gain a broader view of all of these data and information, which are referred to in this project. As a result of this laborious process, we reach different and important conclusions and reflections, that is ultimately the objective of this study.
