A Cause or Effect of Insecurity?

It examines the background to the privatization of security, contemporary security threats, services provided by private security companies (PSCs), and the regulation and oversight of PSCs. The report concludes with a set of policy recommendations concerning industry growth and consolidation, legislation and regulation, oversight and enforcement, transparency and accountability, and security sector reform.
