Date : 1211212008 Description: General Civil SIEMENSAKTIENGESELLSCHAFT J Wittelsbacherplatz 2 1 D-80333Munich 1 Federal Republic of Germany 1 1 Defendant. 1 1 COMPLAINT Plaintiff, U.S. Securitiesand Exchange Commission(the "Commission7'),alleges: SUMMARY 1. Between March 12,2001 and September30,2007 (the "Relevant Period"), SiemensAktiengesellschaft ("Siemens" or the "Company7')violated the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act 115U.S.C. 5 78dd-11(the "FCPA") by engaging in a widespread and systematicpractice of paying bribes to foreign government oEcials to obtain business. Siemens created elaboratepayment schemesto conceal the nature of its corruptpayments, and the Company's inadequate internal controlsallowed the illicit conductto flourish. The misconduct involved employeesat all levels of the Company, including former seniormanagement, and reveals a corporate culture that had long been at odds with the FCPA.
  • 2. 2. Duringthis period, Siemensmadethousands of separatepaymentsto third parties in ways that obscuredthe purpose for, and the ultimate recipients of,the money. At least4,283 ofthose payments, totaling approximately$1.4 billion, were used to bribe governmentofficialsin return for business to Siemensaroundthe world. Amongthe transactions on which Siemenspaid bribes were those to design and build metro transit linesin Venezuela;metro trains and signalingdevicesin China;power plants in Israel; high voltagetransmission lines in China; mobiletelephone networksin Bangladesh; telecommunicationsprojects inNigeria; national identitycardsin Argentina;medical devicesin Vietnam, China, and Russia;trafficcontrolsystemsin Russia; refineries in Mexico; and mobile communicationsnetworks in Vietnam. Siemensalsopaid kickbacks to Iraqi ministries in connectionwith salesof power stationsand equipmentto Iraq under the UnitedNations Oil forFood Program. Siemensearned over $1.1 billion inprofits on thesefourteencategoriesof transactionsthat comprised332 individualprojects or individual sales. 3. InNovember 2006, Siemens' current management began to implement reformsto the Company's internalcontrols. Thesereforms substantiallyreduced, but did' not entirelyeliminate, corruptpayments. All but $27.5 million ofthe corruptpayments occurredprior to November 15,2006. 4. Siemensviolated Section30A ofthe SecuritiesExchangeAct of 1934 ("Exchange Act7')[15U.S.C. 578dd-11by making illicitpaymentsto foreign government officialsin orderto obtainor retain business. Siemensviolated Section 13(b)(2)(B)of the Exchange Act by failing to have an adequate internal control system in place to detect andprevent the illicitpayments. Siemensviolated Section 13(b)(2)(A) of
  • 3. the Exchange Act by improperlyrecording each of those payments in its accounting books and records. JURISDICTION 5. This Courthasjurisdiction overthis action under Sections21(d), 21(e), and 27 of the Exchange Act 115U.S.C. $9 78u(d), 78u(e) and 78aaI. Siemens, directlyor indirectly,made use of the means or instrumentalitiesof interstate commerce, of the mails, or ofthe facilitiesof a national securitiesexchangein connectionwith the transactions,acts, practices, and coursesof business alleged in this Complaint. 6. Venue is appropriateinthis Courtunder Section27 ofthe Exchange Act [15 U.S.C. 5 78aaI or 28 U.S.C. 5 1391(d). DEFENDANT 7. Siemensis a German corporation with its executiveoffices in Munich, Federal Republicof Germany. Siemensis one of the world's largestmanufacturersof industrialand consumer products. Siemensbuilds locomotives, traffic control systems and electricalpower plants. The Companyalso manufacturesbuilding control systems, medical equipmentand electrical components,and formerlymanufactured communicationsnetworks. Siemensemploysapproximately428,200people and operatesin approximately 190countriesworldwide. Siemensreported net revenue of $116.5 billion and net incomeof $8.9 billion for its fiscal year ended September 30, 2008. 8. In accordancewith Germanlaw, Siemenshas a SupervisoryBoard and a ManagingBoard. The SupervisoryBoard is generally comparableto the board of directorsof a corporationin the United Statesin that it overseesmanagement but with
  • 4. less oversightpower under G e m law. The Managing Board -or "Vorstand" - generallyperformsthe dutiesand responsibilities of seniormanagement of a corporation in the United Statesand includesthe Company's Chief ExecutiveOfficer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"). 9. Prior to a recent reorganization, Siemensoperated through a complex array of business groups and regional companies. Thebusiness groupsare divisions within Siemensand arenot separatelegal entities. Theregional companies arewholly- or partly-owned subsidiariesof Siemens. Thethirteenprincipalbusiness groupsduring the RelevantPeriod were: Communications("COM"), SiemensBusiness Services ("SBS"), Automationand Drives ("A&D9'), Industrial Solutionsand Services("I&S"), SiemensBuildingTechnologies("SBT"), Power Generation("PG"),PowerTransmission and Distribution("PTD), TransportationSystems("Tv, SiemensVDO Automotive ("SV"), Medical Solutions("MED"), Osram MiddleEast, SiemensFinancial Services ("SFS"), and SiemensReal Estate ("SRE"). In 2008, Siemensreorganizedthe groups into three Sectors-Energy, Healthcareand Industry. 10. SinceMarch 12,2001, Siemens' American Depository Shareshave been registeredwith the Commissionpursuantto Section 12(b)of the Exchange Act. [15 U.S.C. 5781(b)]. Siemens' American Depository Sharestrade ontheNew York Stock Exchange ('WSE") under the symbol"SI." FACTS A. Background 11. Siemenstracesits originsto 1847and for over 160years has been one of the most successfulconglomeratecompaniesin Germany. After World War 11, Siemens
  • 5. had difficultycompetingfor business in many Western countries and responded by seekingbusiness opportunitiesin certain less developed countrieswhere corrupt business practices were common. 12. Duringthe pre-1999period, thefist period, bribery at Siemenswas largely unregulated. German law did not prohibit foreign bribery and allowed tax deductionsfor bribes paid in foreigncountries. Siemenswas not yet listed on theNYSE and thereforewas not subjectto U.S. regulation. Undeterredby foreign lawsthat prohibited bribery, Siemensput severalpaymentmechanismsin place, including the use of cash and off-booksaccounts,to make payments as necessaryto win business. 13. ThetermNiitzlicheAufwendungen ("NAY')or ''useful expenditures" was a commonlyused tax lawterm and was commonlylisted on Siemens' cost calculation sheetsto denotepaymentsto third parties, includingillicitpaymentsto foreignofficials. Though aslarule Siemensrequired two signatureson all major documentsin accordance with an i n t e d controlknownas the "four-eyes" principle,many exceptionsto the rule weremade to ensure quick accessto cashto make illicit payments. 14. Overtime, Siemensdevelopedanetwork of payment mechanisms designed to funnelmoney throughthird parties in a way that obscuredthe purpose and ultimate recipient of the funds. On at.least oneproject, bribesto high ranking governmentofficialswerearrangedpersonallyby a member ofthe Vorstand.. The successof Siemens' bribery systemwasmaintainedby lax internal controls over corruptionrelated activities and an acceptanceof suchactivitiesby membersof senior management and the compliance, internal audit, legal and financedepartments.
  • 6. 1. NYSE Listing 15. From 1999to 2003, the secondperiod,theVorstand was ineffectivein implementingcontrolsto addressconstraints imposed by Germany's 1999adoptionof the OrganizationforEconomic Cooperationand Development ("OECD) anti-bribery conventionthat outlawedforeignbribery. OnFebruary 15,1999,the very daythat Germanyratified the OECD Convention,the then-CEO of Siemens"expressed his concern at the number of criminal and other investigationsinto members of the Company," furthernotingthat "[als the Board could possiblybe held responsiblefor various offenses, it was importantto takeprotective measures." However,bribery continuedfor years afterward. 16. The Vorstandwas also ineffectivein meeting the U.S. regulatory and anti- bribery requirementsthat Siemenswas subjectto followingitsMarch 12,2001,listing on theNYSE. 17. The changesin the legal landscapecaused by Germany's ratificationof the QECD Conventionand Siemens' listing on theNYSE should have put an endto bribery at Siemens. Unfortunately, they did not. Instead, a steady flowof improper payments continuedto emanatefiom the Company, in largepart because of certain actionsand inactionstaken by the Vorstand. 18. For instancein mid-2000, as Siemensprepared for itsNYSE listing, its legal departmentforwardeda memorandum to the SupervisoryBoard Chairmanand CFO identifying certainoff-books accounts. The memorandummade it clearthat Siemens' accountshad to be maintained "in harmony with the principlesof orderly accounting.
  • 7. Otherwisesanctionsare likelyunder criminal law." The Vorstand failedto act, and the off-booksaccountscontinuedto exist even after Siemens"YSE listing: 19. In addition,the Vorstand failed to adoptmeaningll compliance measures, failed to adequatelystaff Siemens' compliancefunction and, attimes, failed to adopt reasonablerecommendationsdesignedto enhance complianceprocedures at the Company. As illustrated herein, many of the improperpaymentsmade by Siemens involved the use of business consultants and business consultingagreementsto funnel illicitpaymentsto third parties, includinggovernment officials. In April 2000, the Vorstand rejected a proposal by the Company's General Counselto create a Company- wide list of business consultants and a committeeto reviewthese relationships. Although Siemensissuedvariousprinciples and recommendationsregardingbusiness consultants, Siemenshad no mandatoryand comprehensiveCompany-widerules inplace governing the use of business consultants until Juneof 2005. 2. Red Flags (CommunicationsGrouv -Nigeria) 20. From 2003 to 2006, the thirdperiod, members of theVorstand failed to respond appropriatelyto indicationsthat bribery was widespreadat Siemens. Red flags that the Vorstand membersmissed or ignored included substantialcashpayments in Nigeria by seniorlevel employeeswithinthe COMbusinessgroup. In the fall of 2003, Siemens' outside auditor KPMG identified 4.12 million in cashthat was brought to Nigeria by COMemployeesand flaggedthe paymentsforreview. A compliance attorneyatthe Company conducteda one-day investigationofthe payments andwrotea report indicatingthat COM employeesadmittedthat it was not an isolated event and warned of numerous possibleviolations of law. Thoughthe compliancereport was
  • 8. reviewed inNovember 2003 by Siemens' then-CFO, no disciplinaryaction was taken, no furtherinvestigativework was conducted,and the report was not provided to or discussed with the Vorstand as a whole or the Company's auditcommittee. COM employees identified in thereport, includinga former COM manager, continuedto pay bribes through a seriesof slush fundsuntil at least November 2006, when they were arrested followinga raid of Siemens' offices (the"Dawn Raid") by criminal authoritiesin Munich, Germany. Had seniormanagement responded differently,bribes paid by the COM group could have been reduced or eliminated. 3. , Red Flags mower GenerationGrour,-Italv) 21. During the thirdperiod, the Vorstand alsofailedto respond appropriately to multi-million dollar bribes paid in Italy by managersof the SiemensPG business group. In July2003, the news media reported that prosecutorsin Milanwere investigatingbribespaid to employeesof ENEL, an energy companypartly-ownedby the Italian government, in connectionwith two power plant projects. SiemensPGmanagers made approximately6 million in corrupt paymentsto two ENEL officials. The corrupt paymentswere routedthrough slushfunds in Liechtensteinusing a Dubai-based business consultant. 22. In April 2004, ajudge in Milan issued a written opinion concludingthat the evidence indicatedthat Siemensviewed bribery "at leastas a possible business strategy." In or aroundMay 2004, a legalmemorandumconcerningthe rulingwas sent to members of the Vorstand, includingthe then-CEO andthen-CFO ofthe Company. Anothermemorandum,sentto membersof the Vorstand, includingthe then-CEO and the then-CFO in April 2004, detailed severancepackagesthat had been givento the PG
  • 9. managers and attacheda September2003 memorandumprepared by an American law firm.Thelegal memorandum suggestedthat Siemensshould immediately review and assureproper functioningof its FCPA complianceprogram, that the allegations and steps taken to addressthem shouldbe reportedto the board, and that the employeesinvolved should be disciplined. 23. Subsequently, Siemens,alongwith two of its PG managers, entered into a plea bargainwith criminal authoritiesin Italypursuant to which Siemenspaid a 0.5 million fine, gaveup 6.2 million inprofits and was barred fiom sellinggas turbinesin Italy for oneyear. Despitetheir criminalconduct,the two PG managers involvedinthe ENELmatter received earlyretirementwith fullretirement benefits. The PG CFO received a1.8 million severancepackage from Siemenswhen he leftthe Companyas a result of the ENELmatter. In a related criminalproceedingin Germany, the longtime CFO of PG confessedto authorizingthebribes. Siemens' corporateresponse to bribery assuredcertainemployeesthat they could expectto be taken careof if and when caught paying bribes on behalf of the Company. 24. There were additional significantred flags of corruptionincluding admissionsof bribery or so called"bonus payments" to governmentofficialsin March 2006 by a manager at SiemensGreeceof over37 million, as well as anApril 2006 KPMG audit identificationof over 250 suspiciouspaymentsmade through an intermediaryon behalf of Informationand Communication Mobile, a corporate predecessorof COM, and SiemensS.p.A in Italy.
  • 10. 4. Tone at the Top 25. The Vorstand's responseto the situationsinNigeria and Italy demonstrated a tone at thetop of Siemensthat was inconsistentwith an effectiveFCPA complianceprogram and createda corporateculturein which bribery was tolerated and evenrewarded atthehighestlevelsof the company. 26. Siemensimplementedcertainimprovementsto its complianceprogram in responseto the situationin Italy. These included an anti-briberyspeechdeliveredby the then-CFOto high-levelbusiness managers in summer2004 and the establishmentof a Corporate ComplianceOffice in October2004. In addition, the Companyissuedpolicies overbank accounts,includingrequirementsrelatingto the initiation and use of Company accountsand authorizationsregarding cash. However, it was not until oneyear later, in June 2005, thatthe Companyissued mandatoryrules governingthe use of business consultants,e.g. prohibiting success fees and requiring complianceofficersto sign off on businessconsultingagreements. While thesemeasures appearto have been partially effective,improper payments continuedat leastuntil the DawnRaid inNovember 2006. 27. Despitethe Vorstand's knowledgeof bribery at two of its largest groups- COM and PG -the CorporateComplianceOffice continuedto have a conflictedmandate and lacked resources. Therewas aninherentconflict inthe Corporate Compliance Office mandate, which included both defendingthe Company, and preventingcompliance breaches. TheCorporateComplianceOfficewas significantlyunderstaffed, with a part- time ChiefCompliance Officer,and up to six fuil-time lawyersuntil 2007. Despite knowledge of numerousinstancesof corruption in multiple areasofthe business,the Company did not implementmandatory FCPA compliancetraining until 2007.
  • 11. B. IllicitPaymentMechanismsUsed to Pay Bribes 28. Duringthe RelevantPeriod, Siemensmade thousands ofpaymentsto third parties in ways that obscuredthe purpose for, and ultimate recipient of, the money. The principalpaymentmechanismsused to facilitateillicit were business consultants,payment intermediaries,slushfunds, cash, and intercompanyaccounts. 29. Throughits use of business consultants and payment intermediaries, Siemensfunneledmore than $982.7 million to thirdparties, including government officials. All but $27.5 million ofthe paymentsweremadeprior to November 15,2006. Businessconsultantswere typicallyhired pursmt to business consultantagreements, contractsthat on their face obligated Siemensto pay for legitimate consultingservices. In reality, many business consultantagreementswere shamsin that the business consultantsperformedno servicesbeyond funnelingbribes. PG had specificinstructions on how to use a "confidential payment systemyyto conceal paymentsto business consultants. Payment intermediarieswere additionalentitiesand individualsthrough which Siemensfunneledbribes. Inmany cases, Siemenswould pay the intermediaryan amount and simultaneouslydirect that the money be transferredto a third-party bank account, less a smallportion asthe intermediary's fee. 30. Siemensalsofunneledmore than $211million through slush fundsfor use as bribes. All but $2.3 million of the piiymentswere made prior to September30,2004. Slushfundswere bank accountsheld inthe name of currentor formersenior Siemens employees,third parties, or affiliated entities. The most notable slush funds were maintained by a former COM manager recently convictedin Germanyfor his role in the
  • 12. payment of bribesto foreign officials, which included several slushfunds held inthe name of U.S. shell companies. 31. . Siemensalsoused cash and cash equivalentsto h e 1more than $160.4 million to thirdparties. All but $9.2 million ofthe payments weremade prior to September30,2004. SiemensCOM employeesused cash desksmaintainedby the SiemensReal Estate Groupto obtain large amountsof cashto pay bribes. Often, employeeswould obtainhundredsofthousandsof dollarsand, at times, even $1million in various currenciesfiom the cash desks in Germany. Thecash was transported, sometimesin suitcases,acrossinternationalborders intovarious countries. At times, the cashwas then storedin safesmaintainedby Siemensemployeesto ensureready accessto cashto pay bribes. 32. Lastly, Siemensused various types of internalaccountsto funnel more than $16.2 millionto third parties. Approximately99% of thepayments were made prior to September 30,2005. An intercompany account is a type of Siemens7internal account that is used to makepaymentsontransactionsbetweentwo Siemensentities, i.e., for entity to entity business. Siemensused the intercompanyaccountsto make third party payments and in a number of instances, Siemensmaintainedthe accountsin thenames of unconsolidatedentities aroundthe globe, including Ecuador andNicaragua, in orderto avoid detection. Someofthe intercompany accountsmaintainedat unconsolidated entitieswere known to, andpossibly createdby, a formermember ofthe Vorstand, who had oversightresponsibilityfor LatinAmerica. 33. As earlyas 2004, a SiemensCorporateFinanceFinancial Audit employee raised concernsaboutthe use of intercompany accounts. He was phased out of hisjob
  • 13. and assigned to work on "special projects" fkom his home until leavingthe Company in 2005. Siemensthereafter began closingsome of the accountsand eventuallyclosed all of them. 34. Another type of internal accountthat employeesabused was Siemens MED internal commissionaccounts. These balance-sheet accountswere intendedto be used to record commissionsMED earned on transactionswith other Siemensentities. Theseaccountswere used to make third party payments. Many of the intercompany accountpaymentsandthe MED internal commissionaccountpaymentswere done manually to bypass Siemens' automatedpayment system. Themanual payments, executedthrough SFS, did not require the submissionof documentationin supportof a payment. 35. Siemensuied a host ofother schemesto make more than $25.3 million in paymentsto third parties. In particular, Siemensused sham supplieragreements, receivablesand otherwrite-offsto generatepayments. C. Breakdown of Third Partv Pavments 36. Duringthe RelevantPeriod, Siemensmade 4,283 separatepayments totaling approximately$1-4billion to bribe governmentofficials in foreign countries throughoutthe world. An additionalapproximately 1,185separatepaymentsto third parties totaling approximately$39lmillionwere not properly controlledand were used, at least inpart, for illicitpurposes, includingcommercialbribery and embezzlement. The followingchartbreaksdownthe $1-4billion in illicit payments to foreign government officialsby business group. . .
  • 14. D. Bribery of Government Officials 37. The followingparagraphsprovide examplesof bribery schemesinvolving projects and individual salescarried out by Siemensusing U.S. means duringthe Relevant Period with profits,of over $1.1 billion. 1. Metro TransitLines in Venezuela 38. Between 2001 and 2007, SiemensTS and SiemensS.A., a regional companyin Venezuela, paid an estimated$16.7 million in bribesto Venezuelan governmentofficials in connectionwiththe constructionof metro transit systemsin the 'citiesof Valencia and Maracaibo, Venezuela. Thetwo projects, Metro Valencia and Metro Maracaibo, generated approximately$642 million in revenue to Siemens. The Metro Valenciaproject was awarded to a TS entityin the United Statesand later transferred to Siemens, and the Metro Maracaibo project was awardedto Siemensand
  • 15. part of the work was assignedto the U.S. TS entity. Each of the contractswas financed in part by the U.S. Export-Import Bank in Washington,D.C. The corrupt paymentswere made using fourseparate, overlappingpayment schemes. 39. Underthe first scheme, Siemensmaintaineda numbered, off-booksbank account in Panama and eithermaintained a similar accountin Miami or had contactsto a banker in Miami who had accessto suchaccounts. Theseaccountswere controlledby two CEOsandtwo CFOs of Siemens' regional subsidiaryin Venezuela. One ofthe regional CFOs estimatedthat between 2001 and 2003 hepaid $5 to $6millionper year out of the accounts, a portion of which went to governmentofficialsin supportof the Venezuelanprojects. Theregional CFOperiodically destroyedthe account statements. 40. Under the second scheme, Siemenspaid over $6.8millionto fourU.S.- based entitiescontrolledby a longtime Siemensbusiness consultant. Siemenscalled upon the consultant,known as a political "fixer" in Venezuelaand who had been an advisorto formerVenezuelanpresidents,to ensurepolitical supportfor the Maracaibo and Valenciaprojects and for Siemens' role in them. Siemensmade paymentsinto the U.S. bank accountsofthe fourcontrolledentitiespursuant to shamconsultingagreements in returnfor no legitimate work. Bank records reveal paymentsto Venezuelan govemmentofficialsandpolitically-connectedindividuals, includinga high-ranking member ofthe central government, two prominentVenezuelanattorneysactingon behalf of government officials, a formerVenezuelandefense minister and diplomat, and a relative of a local politician, all of whom had influence overthese and other Siemens contractsin Venezuela. Siemenstransferred an additional $4.9 millionto one of the
  • 16. controlled entitiesbetween 2006 and 2007 by artificiallyinflatingthe terms of a contract with a U.S. engineering firm. 41. Under thethird scheme, Siemensused a Cyprus-based business consultant as an intermediaryto fundup to $2.5 million in bribe payments on the Valencia project. Shamagreementswere enteredinto with the business consultantthat purported to be for other Siemensprojects, but were actually designed to transfermoney to Valencia. This payment schemewas authorized by a former CFO of the Turnkey Division within the TS group at Siemens. 42. Under the fourth scheme, Siemensin 2002and 2003 entered into a sham agreementwith a Dubai-based business consultantto supplyMetro Maracaibo with approximately$2.6millionin workshop equipment. The equipmentwas actually suppliedby another supplier, andthe business consultantdid not supplyany goodsunder the contract. Afterthebusiness consultantcame under suspicionas a result of its involvementin the investigationof possiblebribespaid to ENEL managers in Italy, the CFO of Siemens' TurnkeyDivision's successorwas orderedto terminatethe contract. Instead, the new CFO arrangedthe assignment of the contractto anotherDubai-based business consultantthat continuedthe shamworkshop equipment arrangement. 2. MetroTrains and Simaling:Devicesin China 43. Between2002 and 2007, SiemensTSpaid approximately$22million to business consultantswho used someportion ofthose funds to bribe foreign officialsin connectionwith sevenprojects forthe constructionof metro trains and signalingdevices on behalf of governmentcustomersin China. The total value of the projectswas over $1 billion. After experiencingdifficultybreaking into the modern Chinesemarket, Siemens
  • 17. began using a Hong-Kong based business consultant and related entitiesto pay bribes to influencethe award of contractsto Siemens. Siemenstypicallyhired the business consultantbased on an oral agreementto pay a successfee equalto a percentage of the project value and would enter into a written business consultingagreementafterthe governmentcontractwas awardedto Siemens. In connectionwith one Shanghaiproject, fourwholly-owned subsidiariesof the Hong Kong business consultantsubmittedinvoices totaling $11.7 million to Siemensand requestedpayment routed through a U.S. correspondentbank andthento various Swissaccounti The illicitarrangementwas enteredinto by a Sales& Marketingmanager, who later became a Vice President of SiemensTS in Chinawith the knowledgeand approvalof his supervisors. Therewere few, if any, legitimate servicesprovided by the business consultant;backdated agreementsand phony work product were used to supportat least some of thepayments. E-mails relating to a varietyof projects indicatethat the businessconsultantwas funnelingmoneyto governmentofficialsand "friends"with inside informationand influenceover governmentcontractingdecisions. 3. Power Plants in Israel 44. Between 2002 and 2005, SiemensPG paid approximately $20 million in bribesto aformer Director of the state-ownedIsraelElectricCompany ("IEC"). The bribeswere paid in connectionwith fourcontractsto build and servicepowerplants in Israel. The total value of the contracts was approximately$786 million: Siemensrouted the corruptpaymentsthrough a business consultant owned andmanaged by the brother in-law of the CEOofSiemensIsrael Limited, a regional subsidiary. Thebusiness consultantwas ostensiblypaid to "identify and defrne salesopportunities, providemarket
  • 18. intelligence," and support contractnegotiations. In reality, the business consultant was a Hong Kong-based clothingcompany with no expertisein the power generationindustry. Thebusiness consultantneverprovided the services called for under its business consultant agreement. 45. Someofthe money paid to the business consultantwas traced to the formerIEC Director,who was in aposition to influencethe award of the contractswon by Siemens. A portion ofthe funds passed through U.S. bank accounts. 4. Hieh -VoltaeeTransmissionLines in China 46. Between 2002 and 2003, SiemensPTD paid approximately$25million in bribes to govenunentcustomersin connectionwithtwo forthe installationof high voltagetransmission lines in SouthChina.. Thetotal value ofthe projects was approximately$838million. The paymentswere funneledthroughmultiple intermediaries,includinga Dubai-based business consultingfirm controlled by,aformer SiemensPTD employeeand then paid to severalentities associatedwith a Chinese business consultantwho held a U.S passport and maintained a U.S. residence. Payments to the Dubai-based business consultantwere supported by phony distribution contracts. Seniormanagement of PTD in Germany approvedthe paymentswith the understanding thattheywould be sharedwith "partners" in China, includinggovernmentofficials. In 2002, Siemensused U.S. banks to funnel $1.2 million in bribesto anotherbusiness consultantwhose principal shareholdersheld U.S. passports. That business consultant also enteredinto a shambusiness consultantagreementwith Siemensunder which no legitimateserviceswereprovided.
  • 19. 5. MobileTelephone Servicesin Bangladesh 47. Between 2004 and 2006, SiemensCOM paid approximately$5.3 million in bribesto government officials in Bangladeshin connectionwith a contractwith the Bangladesh Telegraph& Telephone Board ("BT'TB) to install mobiletelephone services. The.total value of the contractwas approximately$40.9 million. Thepayments 'weremade to three businessconsultantspursuant to sham agreementscallingfor services associatedwith the mobiletelephoneproject. The ultimate recipients of the payments includedthe son of the then-PrimeMinister in Bangladesh, the Minister of the Ministry of Posts & Telecommunicationsin Bangladesh, and the BTTB Director of Procurement. In addition, SiemensLimited Bangladesh, a regional company, hired relatives.of two otherBTTB and Ministryof Post and Telecomofficials. Most of the money paid to the business consultantswaS routed through correspondentaccountsin the United States, with at least onepayment originating&oma U.S. account. Since approximately September2004, a Siemensbusiness consultantwho served as a principal payment intermediaryon the Bangladesh bribe paymentshasbeen resident inthe United States. At least $1.7 million of the bribe paymentsmade throughthis intermediarywere paid into a Hong Kongbank accountwhilethe intermediarywas residing inthe United States. 48. Theinvolvementof seniorofficialsat Siemens' regional companyin Bangladesh, including a formerCEOand the directorofthe regional company's COM division, in the bribery schemeis revealedboth in statementsby the officialsand in internal emailmessages, severalof which includethe tagline, "kindly deletethis mail oncethe purpose is done."
  • 20. 6. Four TelecommunicationsProiectsin Nigeria 49. SiemensCOMmade approximately$12.7 million in suspiciouspayments in connectionwith Nigerianprojects, with at least $4.5 millionpaid as bribes in connectionwith fourtelecommunicationsprojects with governmentcustomersin Nigeria, includingNigeria TelecommunicationsLimited and the Ministryof Communications. Thetotal value of the four contractswas approximately$130million. Thepractice of paying bribesby SiemensCOMinNigeria was long-standingand systematic. According to a highranking official within SiemensLimitedNigeria, a regional company, corrupt payments in 2000 and 2001 commonlyreached 15to 30% of the contracts' value. Bribe payments weretypically documentedusing fictitiousbusiness consultantagreements under which no actual serviceswereperformed. The CEO of SiemensLimitedNigeria forwardedrequests for "commission" paymentsto Siemensheadquartersin Germany. The illicitpayments were then made through a number of means, frequentlyincluding largecashwithdrawalsfrom cash desksthat were then hand-carried in suitcasesto Nigeria. 50. In the fourtelecommunicationsprojects, approximately$2.8 million ofthe bribepaymentswas routed through a bank account in Potomac, Maryland, in the,pameof the wife of a formerNigerian Vice President. TheVice President's wife, a dualU.S.- Nigeriancitizenlivingin the United States, served asthe representativeof a business consultantthat enteredinto fictitiousbusiness consultantagreementsto perform "supply, installation, and commissioning" servicesbut did no actual work for Siemens. The purpose ofthesepaymentswas to bribe government officials. Other compt payments includedthe purchase of approximately$172,000 in watchesforNigerian officials
  • 21. designated in internal Siemensrecords as "P." and "V.P.," likely referringto the Presidentand Vice-PresidentofNigeria. 7. Identitv card Proiectin Argentina 51. Between 1998and 2004, Siemenspaid over $40million in bribes to senior officialsof the governmentof Argentinain an effortto securea $1billion project to produce national identity cards. Siemensofficialsbetween 1998and 1999,includingthe then-CEO of Siemensregional company in Argentina, SiemensS.A., caused $19million to be paid to business consultantsforbribes. At least $2.6 million was transferred from the business consultants' accountsdirectlyto the Presidentof Argentina,the Minister of the Interior, and the Head of ImmigrationControlto obtainthe contract. Duringthis period, Siemensofficialspromised to pay an additional $30million or moreto the Presidentand his Cabinetministers. In late 1999,the Argentine President ended his term whenhis party was voted out of office, and the new administrationthreatenedto terminatethe contract on the ground that it had beenprocured by fiaud. In an effortto head off that possibility, Siemenspaid $6 million in additionalbribesto officialsin the new Argentineadministration. Despitethese payments, the contractwas nonetheless canceled in May 2001. 52. Overthe followingfouryears, Siemensofficialsreceived a seriesof payment demandsand threats against its employeesin Argentina if it did not fulfill its past commitmentto pay additionalbribes. Between 2002 and 2004, Siemenspaid over $23million to settlethese demands. The Siemensofficials involved in authorizingthe payments included a member of the Vorstand,who in 2003personallyflewto the United Statesto meet with Siemens' principal intermediaryto negotiatethe payment terms, as
  • 22. well asthe CEO and CFO of Siemens' regional company in Argentina. Approximately $9.5 million of thesepaymentswere routed through the books of an unrelated PTD transmissionproject in China in an effortto conceal the paymentsfiom Siemens' internal auditors. other were made through^.^. bank accountsbased on fictitious invoicesfor non-existent past servicesin connectionwith the identity cardproject and otherprojects inthe region, includingpaymentsto a former governmentMinister and member ofthe ArgentineCongress. 8. Medical Devices in Vietnam 53. SiemensMED paid $183,000 in early 2005 and $200,000 in early 2006 in connectionwiththe saleof approximately$6million of medical devicesontwo projects involvingthe VietnameseMinistryof Health. After learningthat bribe paymentswere required in Vietnam, SiemensMED soughtthe name of the business consultantentrusted by SiemensTS to conductbusinessin that market, includingmakingits bribepayments. SiemensMED then enteredinto an agreementwith an affiliate of the group of Hong- Kongbased business consultantsused by SiemensTS to act as SiemensMEDYspayment intermediary. Thepaymentswere routedthrough a U.S. correspondentbank and then to Singaporebank accountsof t h e ' ~ o n ~on^ business consultant. The amountswere then withdrawn iricash and transportedto Vietnam. Project calculation sheets connectedto the salesdesdribethe paymentsto the intermediaryas relatingto "room preparation." A number of Siemensseniormanagers, includingthe then-CFO of Siemens7business in Vietnam, admittedthat the purpose ofthe paymentswasto bribe governmentofficials. 54. With regard to the $183,000paymentthat wasmade in early 2005, the former CFO of SiemensLimited Vietnam ("SLV") describedhow he and the then CEO
  • 23. of Siemens SLVpicked up an envelope with $183,000 cash at a hotel in Singapore "fi-om a Hong Kong business man" and flew to the Hanoi airport where the money was left with the then-head of Siemens MED in Vietnam, who had primary responsibility for contract negotiationswith officialsat the Vietnamese Ministry of Health. 9. Medical Devices in China 55. Between 2003 and 2007, SiemensMED paid approximately $14.4 million in bribes to the same intermediary described above in connectionwith $295 million in sales of medical equipment to five Chinese-ownedhospitals, as well as to fund lavish trips for Chinese doctors. The formercontroller of Siemensoversawthe business relationship between Siemens and the affiliateof the Hong-Kong-basedintermediarythat it used to pay the bribes. A majority of the sales on which the intermediary received a payment involved a bribe to a government official. The same intermediarywas used by SiemensTS to pay bribes in China and by Siemens MED to pay bribes in Vietnam. 56. For example, Siemenspaid $64,800 in May 2006 in connectionwith the sale of a $1.5 million MRI system to the SongyuanCity Central Hospital in China. The payment was sentto a U.S. bank account, and later routed to a Singaporebank account in the name of the intermediary. A project calculation sheet signed by the then-CFO of SiemensMED China describedthe payment as relating to "expenses (commission)"; however, no serviceswere provided by the intermediary aside from acting as a vehicle for the transfer of bribe payments. In or around March 2008, SongyuanHospital's deputy director and head of the radiology departmentwas convictedin China of corruptioncharges, including a charge for accepting a $60,000bribe from a
  • 24. Siemenssalespersonin connectionwith the sale ofthe MRI system and sentencedto fourteenyears inprison. 57. Siemensalsoused the Hong Kong intermediaryto pay $9 million in travel costs for "study trips" Men by doctorswho worked at government-ownedhospitals in China. The studytrips, which included lavishtripsto Las Vegas, Miami, and other vacation spotsinthe United States,were connectedto at least 231separatesalesto hospitalsawardedto Siemenswith revenueof approximately$235million. Theformer CFO of SiemensMED in Chinausedthe intermediaryto pay for studytrips because of . concernsaboutthe lavishness and "non-scientific content" of thetrips, which were taken by doctorswho were in a positionto awardbusinessto Siemens. 58. Bribes were alsopaid to securesalesofmedical equipmentto hospitals in Chinaon behalf oftwo SiemensU.S.-based subsidiaries,Oncology Care Solutions ("OCS") in Californiaand MolecularImaging("MI") in Illinois. For OCS, Siemens developed a schemeto minimizethe risk of anti-briberyprosecution in the United States forthese transactions by routing the approvalof business consultingagreementsand the paymentof business consultantsthrough Siemens' headquartersin Germanyrather than intheUnited States. Between 1998and 2004, this schemewas usedto approveimproper paymentsof approximately$650,000 to Chinesebusiness consultantsin connectionwith the U.S.-related sales. A seniormanagerat SiemensMED in Germany and officialsof the U.S.-based subsidiaries, includingthe CFOsof OCS and MI were aware of the businessconsultantpayments and facilitatedthe schemeby verifyingthe amountsto be paid and thatthepayments were due and owing. At onepoint afterapprovingtwenty-six suchpayments, the seniormanager at SiemensMED refbsedto continuethepayment
  • 25. scheme, citingconcern forthe welfare of his family if he were sentto prison. The CFO . of MED attemptedto pressurethe seniormanagerto keepthe payment scheme going, but without success. 59. In 2005, theseofficialsalso verified that "clean up" paymentstotaling over $500,000 were owedto Siemens' Hong Kong-based intermediaryin connection with salesby OCS and MI in China. The outstandingpayments were forbribes owedto third parties on behalf of Siemens. After receivingconfiation from OCS and MIthat the paymentswere outstanding, the formercontrollerof SiemensMed authorizedthree "clean up" payments in 2005for $377,400, $140,000 and $44,000. 10. TrafficControl Svstem in Russia 60. From 2004 to 2006, SiemensI&S and 000 Siemens, a regional company in Russia, paid approximately$741,419in bribesto governmentofficialsin connection with a WorldBank-funded project forthe designand installationof a $27milliontraffic control systemin Moscow cged the MoscowThird Ring Project. First, Siemenspaid money to its business consultantwho simultaneouslyworked as a technicalconsultantfor the MoscowProjectImplementationUnit (the "MPIU"), a quasi-governmentalunit that ran the MoscowThirdRingproject. The MPIU hired the technical consultantat Siemens' suggestion. From 2004 to 2006, Siemenspaid approximately $313,000to three entitiesassociatedwiththetechnicalconsultant, with at least $141,419 of the payment in exchangefor favorabletreatment in thetenderingprocess. Thetechnical consultantused his position at the MPIU to createtender specificationsfavorableto Siemens,to provide tender documentsto Siemensbefore their officialpublication, to evaluate projectbids in
  • 26. a waythat ensured Siemenswould win the contract, and to assistduringthe implementation phase of the project. 61. Second, Siemenscolludedwith a competitorwho agreed to inflate its project bid to ensure Siemenswon the project. In return, Siemenshired the competitorat an inflatedrate of approximately$800,000. Siemensalso hired two of the competitor's former consortiummembers to become subcontractorsto Siemenson the project ("Subcontractor A and SubcontractorB ) . Siemenspaid SubcontractorA approximately $1.3 million for a shamtrafficstudy and approximately$1.4 millionto SubcontractorB for otheralleged services. In fact, both subcontractorswere used to funnel at least $600,000 of the $741,419 describedin paragraph 60 to seniorofficials of the MPN. 11. RefinervModernizationProiectin Mexico 62. In late2004, SiemensPG and SiemensS.A. de CV, a regional entity, madethree separate.illicitpayments totaling approximately$2.6 million to a politically- connectedbusiness consultantto assistin settlingcostoverrun claims in connectionwith three refmery modernizationprojects in Mexico. Someportion ofthese payments were routed through the business consultantto a senior official of the Mexican state-owned petroleum company,PetroleosMexicanos(Ternex"). The official was in a positionto influencetbe settlement. Thepaymentswere made withthe knowledge and approval of the then-CEO of Siemens' regional company in Mexico. Thepaymentsw& supported . by invoicesreflecting consultingservicesthat were not provided or only vaguely described. A portion of Siemens' work on the contractswas performed by aregional subsidiary in Atlanta, and someof the contractfinancing was providedby theU.S. Export-ImportBank in Washington, DC.
  • 27. 12. Medical Devices in Russia 63. Between 2000 and 2007, SiemensMED made improperpayments of over $55millionto a Dubai-based business consultant in connectionwith sales ofmedical equipmentinRussia. Thebusiness consuItant was used as a payment intermediaryfor bribesto government-owned customersin Russia. The former CFO of SiemensMED knew of and approved the payments. Senior Siemensofficials estimatedthat up to 80% of Siemens' MED business in Russia involvedillicitpayments. On one suchtransaction in 2006, siemensmade payments of approximately$287,914, some of which was used forbribes, in connectionwith the $2.5million saleof a computertomograph systemto a public hospital in Ekaterinburg. On this contract,the bribes wereroutedthrough the Dubai-based business consultant, aswell as a secondbusiness consultantthat was registeredin Des Moines, Iowa. 13. GSMMobileNetwork Servicesin Vietnam 64. In 2002, SiemensCOMpaid approximately$140,000in bribes in connectionwith a tender worth approximately$35million forthe supplyof equipment and servicesrelated to a Global Systemsmobilenetwork for Vietel, a government owned telecommunications provider foundedby the VietnameseMinistryof Defense. Two separatepaymentstotaling $140,000 weremade tothe Singaporeaccountof a Siemens businessconsultant. Thepaymentswerethenrouted through a U.S. correspondent account and likelypaid to officialsat the VietnameseMinistryof Defense. Thepayments were part of a much largerbribery scheme concocted by high-levelmanagersat Siemens regional companyin Vietnam, SLV,to pay bribes to government officialsat Vietel and the VietnameseMinistry of Defensein orderto acquirePhaseI ofthe Vietel GSM tender.
  • 28. In a June 2002, facsimilethat discussedthe bribery scheme, the formerhead of COM sales for the regional company described Siemens' explicitagreementto pay 8%of the value of the Vietel projectto officials at the Ministry of Defense and 14%ofthe project value to officials at Vietel. In August and September2002, Siemenssigned agreements with two business consultantswho were retained for the solepurpose of funnelingthe bribesto governmentofficialsconnected to Vietel. Ultimately, Siemenswas unsuccessfulin its pursuit of theVietel project and lostthe tender beforepaying additionalbribes. E. The Oil for Food Program 65. The Oil for Food Program was intendedto provide humanitarianrelief for the Iraqipopulation, which faced severehardship under the internationaltrade sanctions that followedIraq's 1990invasionof Kuwait. TheProgram permittedthe Iraqi governmentto sell its crude oil and usetheproceeds to purchase food, medicine, and critical idiastructure supplies. Theproceeds ofthe oil sales were transferred directly fiomthe buyers to an escrowaccount(the"U.N. EscrowAccount") maintained inNew York by the UnitedNations 661 Committee. Funds inthe U.N. EscrowAccountwere availableforthe purchase of humanitarian supplies, subjectto U.N. approvaland supervision. The intent ofthis structurewasto preventthe proceeds of Iraq's crude oil salesfiomunderminingthe sanctionsregimeby supplyingcashto SaddamHussein. 66. Corruptionwas rampantwithinthe Program. By mid-2000, Iraqi ministrieson the instructionoftop government officialsinstituted apolicy requiring suppliersof humanitariangoodsto pay a ten percent kickback on each contract. This kickback requirementwas euphemisticallyreferred to as an "after-sales service" fee
  • 29. ("ASSF"); however, lio serviceswere provided. Supplierscompetingto obtain contracts underthe Program were encouragedto include a ten percent markup in their bids or purchase orders. The inflatedcontractprices were incorporated into the Oil for Food contractsas a way to permitthe suppliersto recover fiomthe U.N. Escrow Accountthe kickbackpaymentsthey had paid secretlyto Iraq. Following the 2004 release of a report by the U.S. General AccountingOfficeexposingsomeofthe abuses,the U.N. commissionedan independentinquiry committee, headed by former FederalReserve ChairmanPaul Volcker (the "Volcker Committee"), to investigatethe Program's performance. That committee's October 27,2005, final report estimatedthatthe Iraqi governmenthad diverted $1-7billion in illicit incomefiom the Program. 1. Siemens' Involvementin the Oil for Food Program 67. Siemensparticipated inthe Programthroughtwo of its regional companies, SiemensS.A.S. ("Siemens France") and Siemens Sanayive TicaretA.S. ("Siemens Turkey") andtwo subsidiaries,Osram Middle East FZE ("Osram ME") and GasTurbine Technologies SpA("GT). In total, 42 Oil for Food contractswere entered into, and secretkickback paymentsof approximately $1.7 millionwere madeto Iraqi controlled accountsin orderto avoid detectionby the U.N. Total revenueson the contractswere over $124millionwith profitsof approximately $38,226,537. The paymentswere characterized as after salesservicefees; however,no serviceswere actually rendered. The ASSFs were effectivelybribespaid to the Iraqi regime, which Siemensimproperlydisguised on its books andrecords by rnischaracterizingthe bribes as legitimate commissions.
  • 30. 2. SiemensFrance 68. From approximatelySeptember2000to July 2001, SiemensFrance enteredintotwelvecontracts coveringpower stationrenovation, servicingand spareparts with the Iraqi Ministryof Electricity and paid illicitASSFs of approximately$321,745. The contractswere artificially inflated by 10%and then submittedto the U.N. for payment. The U.N. was not informedthat the contractshad been inflated orthat Siemens France intendedto pay illicit kickbacksto Iraq. 69. For instance, in July2000 Siemenssubmitteda bid forthe rehbishment of cranes at the DauraPower Stationin Iraq. The purchase order was subsequently signed inNovember 2000, and included a 10%increase in the contractvalue. Shortly thereafter, in January2001, Siemenssigned a Supplementto its business consultant agreementwith its local agent in Iraq providing for a 10%commissionto the agent for "after sales servicesand activities." Thedocumentwas unusual becauseit provided a . . higher agent compensationthanwas usually provided on such contracts; it was "inconsistent with Siemens' practice" which required specificationand pricing of any true after salesservices; and becausethere was only one Siemenssignatoryonthe contract. In various lettersand memoranda, oneformer Siemenssalesman documented discussionsthat he had with Iraqi officialsregardingthe requirementof ASSFs. In a memorandumwritten by another Siemensemployeediscussinghow to makethe ASSF payments, the employeestatedthat Siemens' agent in Iraq told himthat another Siemens subsidiary, SiemensTurkey, had chosento pay ASSFs in cash "so that no names appear onpaper."
  • 31. 70. SiemensFranceused a local agent in Iraqto deposit the ASSF payments in cash into a Jordanianbank accountheld by two Iraqi officials, which were later transferredto an account controlled by the Iraqi Ministry of Electricity. The local agent confirmedthe bank depositswere made on behalf of Siemensand bank records reflect the payments. Whenmakingthe ASSF payments, the local agentused the name of an acquaintancewho did not work for Siemenssoasto concealhis true identity. 3. SiemensTurkev 71. From approximatelySeptember 2000to June 2002, SiemensTurkey enteredintotwenty contracts relatingto the building and rehabilitation ofpower stations, andpaid after salesservicefeestotaling approximately$1,243,119. Many aspects of SiemensTurkey's involvementinthe Oil for Food Program were similarto those of SiemensFrance. Both companiesused the samelocal agent in Iraq and both dealt principallywith the Ministry of Electricity intheirpaymentof illicitASSFs. As described above, a Siemensemployeestated'thatthe agent informedhim that Siemens Turkeywas payingASSFsin cash "so that no names appearonpaper." Siemens' local agent alsodeposited someASSFs into a Jordanianbank accountcontrolledby Iraqi officials. 4. OsramMiddleEast 72. From approximatelyMay 2000 to June2002, Osram MiddleEast ("Osram"), a Siemenssubsidiary, enteredinto six contractswithstatecompanieswithin the Ministryof Oil, and paid ASSFs of approximately $89,250 forthe sale of lighting equipment. Osram employeesadmittedthat Siemens' local agentrelayedthe Ministry of Oil's demand for ASSFs sometimein late2000. On three of the contracts, Osram entered
  • 32. into secretsideagreementsagreeingto pay a 10%kickback to the Iraqi ministry. The local agent signed each of the sideletterson Osram's behalf. The contracts between Osram and the Ministry of Oil typically contained a 10%markup for ASSFs. The inflated contractswere submittedto the U.N. for approval,but the U.N. was not informed that the contractswere inflated andthe side letterswere not disclosed. Theagent admitted that he made the ASSF paymentsto Jordanian bank accountsheld forthe benefit ofthe IraqiMinistryof Oil on Osram's behalf. 5- -GTT 73. Beginning in 2001, GTT entered into four contractswith the Ministryof Electricityin which ASSFs of $81,962 were paid. For eachcontract, the value of the contractwas increased by approximately 10%betweenthe submissionof the initial bid and the signingofthe purchase order. GTT employeesadmitto the ASSF kickback scheme, and documentsreflectthat GTT's agent in Iraq informed GITthat ASSF payments were a conditionto obtainingcontracts. Though all of the contractswere signed before 2003, none were performed before the start ofthe Iraqi war. After the war began, the U.N asked GTTto amend each contractto decreaseits value by the 10% ASSF. P. SiemensEm~IovedU.S. Means to Engagein Bribery 74. Intotal, Siemensmade bribe payments directly or indirectlyto foreign govemmentofficialsin connectionwith at least290projects or individual salesinvolving business in Venezuela, China, Israel, Bangladesh, Nigeria, Argentina, Vietnam, Russia, and Mexico that employed the mails and othermeans and instnunentalitiesof U.S. interstate commerce. The corrupt paymentswere made to governmentofficialsortheir
  • 33. designees for the purpose of obtaining or retainingbusiness in connectionto the above projects. The use of interstatecommercein connectionwith bribery includedinvolving U.S.-based Siemenssubsidiariesand their employees inthe bribery schemes; financingof three underlying projects by the World Bank and the U.S. Export-Import Bank; making illegalpaymentsthrough U.S. banks; usingU-S-based companiesas intermediaries, business consultants,and holders of slushfunds; conductingmeetings in the United Statesin furtheranceof a bribery scheme; and transmitting mail, electronicmail, and facsimilemessagesinto and out of the United States. G. SiemensFailed to Maintain Its Books and Records 75. During the RelevantPeriod, Siemensmade thousands ofpaymentsto third parties in ways that obscuredthe purpose for, and the ultimate recipientsof, the payments. Inparticular, Siemenspaid approximately $1.4 billion in bribesto foreign governmentofficials. Doing so involvedthe falsificationof Siemens' books and records by employeesthroughoutthe Company. Specifically, Siemensfailedto keep accurate books and recordsby: 1)establishingand funding secret, off-books accounts; 2) establishingand using a system of payment intermediariesto obscurethe sourceand destination'offunds;3) making paymentspursuant to business consultantagreementsthat inaccuratelydescribedtheservicesprovided; 4) generatingfalse invoicesand other false documentstojustify payments; 5)disbursingmillionsin cashfrom cashdeskswith inaccurate documentationauthorizingor supportingthe withdrawals;6) usingpost-it notes for thepurpose of concealingthe identity of persons authorizingillicitpayments; 7)recording illicit ASSFpaymentsas legitimate commissionsin Oilfor Food
  • 34. transactions; 8) falsifymg U.N. documents in connectionwith the Oil forFood Program; and 9) recording bribes as payment for legitimate services. H. SiemensFailedto Maintain AdequateInternal Controls 76. Siemensfailedto implementadequateinternal controlsto complywith the Company's NYSE listing, includingthe detection and prevention of violations of the FCPA. First, Siemensengaged inthe knowing falsificationof books and records. Siemensestablishednumerousoff-booksaccountsand secretslushfundsfor thepurpose of obscuringthe purpose for, and ultimate recipientof, illicitpayments. Elaborate payment mechanismswere used to concealthe fact that bribe payments were made around the globeto obtainbusiness, includingthe PG confidentialpayment systemand extensiveuse of business consultants and intermediariesto h e 1bribes. False invoices and payment documentationwas created to make payments to business consultantsunder falsebusiness consultant agreementsthat identifiedservicesthat were never intendedto be rendered. Illicitpayments were falselyrecorded as expensesfor management fees, consultingfees, supply contracts, room preparation fees, and commissions. Documents related to its participation in the Oilfor Food Program were alsoinaccurate. Siemens inflatedU.N. contracts, signed sideagreementswi6 Iraqi ministriesthat were not disclosedto the U.N., andrecorded the ASSF payments aslegitimate commissions despiteU.N., US., and international sanctionsagainst suchpayments. 77. Second, Siemensemployeesroutinely circumventedthe internal controls the Companyhad in place. Slushfundswere opened inthe names of former and current employees and maintainedoff-books. At any givenpoint, Siemenshad no central record of the true number of bank accountsopenedon its'behalf,from which, millions in illicit
  • 35. paymentswere made. Despite a "four-eyes" policy that required two signatureson Companydocumentsto authorizetransactions, a significantnumber of business consultantagreementswere enteredinto and a significantnumber of payments were authorizedin violation ofthe policy. In many instances, signatures authorizingthe withdrawalof hundreds ofthousands of dollars from cash deskswere placed onpost-it notes and later removed in orderto eradicateanypermanent record of the approvals. In numerousinstances, officialssigningdocumentsfailedto conductany review of the documents. For example, an official who authorizedpayments on behalf of Siemens' Russianregional subsidiaryauthorizedpaymentsdespitehis inability to read the languagein which the supportingdocumentationofthe paymentswere prepared. Siemensofficialsfiequentlymisused internal accountsby transferringmoney &omone Siemensentityto mother without any legitimate business purpose or proper documentationof the disposition of the funds. Siemensofficialsmodified the formatof agreementsto avoid internal controlsonthe use of business consultants by backdating agreements, misidentifjingcounterpartiesas"agents" rather than "business consultants," and obscuringthe amountspaid to business consultantsby splittingthe payments among separateagreements. 78. Finally, Siemensfailedto establishadequate internalcontrolsdespite its knowledgethat corruptionwas rampant. Siemensdid not issuemandatory and comprehensiveCompany-widecontrolsregarding the use of business consultants until June2005, well after senior officialswere awareof widespreadbribery in the Company's two largest divisions,COMand PG. Despitethose controls,due diligenceon business consultantsremained largely inadequate, and payments continuedto be made without
  • 36. adequateproof of servicesrendered. Siemensfailed to establish controlsover numerous off-booksaccountsheld on its behalf aroundthe world. The Companymaintained no central list of corporateaccountsheld at unconsolidated entitiesor in the names of individual Siemensofficials. Siemensfailedto establish controlsover cash disbursements,allowed manualpayments withoutdocumentation,and failedto ensurethe proper use of intercompany accounts. Siemensfailedto establish an effectivecentral compliancefunction. The complianceoffice lacked independenceand was severely understaffed. Siemenstone atthe top was inadequatefor a law abidingentity, and employees engaged in bribery and othermisconduct on behalf of the Companywere not adequately disciplined. Siemensalso failedto conduct appropriate anti-bribery and corruptiontraining.
