Ericsson Suggests U.S. DOJ Advises It Breached Obligations Under DPA
Swedish telecommunications tools maker Ericsson stated Friday it acquired correspondence from U.S. Division of Justice stating that the firm breached its obligations below a Deferred Prosecution Agreement (DPA) by failing to present particular documents and factual details.
In 2019, Ericsson entered into an settlement to pay more than $1 billion to take care of probes into corruption, including the bribing of government officers.
The bribery took area more than many many years in international locations which includes China, Vietnam and Djibouti, the U.S. Section of Justice reported.
Ericsson stated on Friday that at this phase it is untimely to predict the final result of these developments and it intends to cooperate with the DOJ.
A spokesperson for DOJ did not answer right away to a request for comment.
In December, 2019, the firm admitted it had conspired with some others to violate the International Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) from at the very least 2000 to 2016 by participating in a scheme to spend bribes and to falsify guides and data and by failing to carry out acceptable inner accounting controls, the Justice Department claimed.
