Australian newspaper The Age reported that the chief executive of fleet-management company Orix has been charged with paying corrupt commissions to an employee of beverage giant Coca-Cola Amatil.
According to The Age, police will allege Orix boss John Carter made corrupt payments of $504,000 to Coca-Cola Amatil’s fleet manager in exchange for vehicle leasing contracts.
The Age said the senior Orix manager who allegedly made the payments and the Coca-Cola fleet manager who allegedly accepted the corrupt payments were arrested a week ago.

One Reply to “Orix Chief Exec Charged with Paying Corrupt Commissions”
Did someone ever advise industry participants not to pay “spiffs?” Sounds like familiar advice to me, too bad that business people don’t listen sometimes.
