Italian oil company Eni will pay $24.5 million to settle SEC charges that it violated the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act with regard to the award of certain contracts to its former subsidiary Saipem in Algeria.
Italian oil company Eni said in a recent regulatory filing it is in “advanced discussions” regarding a resolution to an SEC probe into allegations of corruption for the award of certain contracts in Algeria.
Calling Eni’s statement “misleading,” the Department of Justice wants to make it clear its corruption inquiry into the Italian oil company was not closed for lack of evidence.
