oz_bribery_in_its_purest_form_executive_summary_rev

Reports on the repeated failure of the UK regulatory authorities over a 10-year period to take action to prevent assets acquired through corrupt means being traded on the London markets.

In September 2016, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) charged Och-Ziff Capital Management Group LLC (Och-Ziff), one of the largest hedge funds in the world, with conspiracy to violate the anti-bribery provisions of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which regulates the New York stock exchange, also announced that Och-Ziff had agreed to settle civil charges of violating the FCPA. RAID’s report examines the corrupt transactions in Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and suspicious payments in Zimbabwe, as detailed by the SEC and DOJ.
