Corporate Bribery – some of the Reasons
• Sanctions don’t work – very weak law enforcement
• Fines against companies don’t hurt corrupt managers
• Managers are afraid to say no to extortion
• They hide behind unclear laws, cultural differences and ambiguities

Case #7 – Ignoring red flags
July 8, 2015
A Swedish telecoms operator was keen to expand its business into countries without a modern mobile phone network. It learned that a young women in Uzbekistan, who was reputed to have the highest political connections in the country, owned the mobile licences via a Gibraltar company. The Swedish company conducted legal due diligence and confirmed: a) That the lady in question was the rightful owner of Gibraltar
company, and b) that the company in fact owned the Uzbek mobile licenses. They agreed to pay the sum of $ 300m for the licences.
Do you see any corruption related problems with the transaction?
What could or should the company have done before purchasing the licences?
