English term or phrase: briefcase organisations
"The exact numbers of how many NGOs are currently registered in Uganda are unclear – but during conversations with local experts working in the industry, estimates range from 9,000 – 12,000. Of course, not all of them are operational and briefcase organisations multiply."

Translator’s note: A “briefcase company” refers to companies that only exist on paper, or are using a front company to pocket money. In Venezuela, they are often associated with a business-class mafia.
