A German software company, SAP, that was being investigated for offering bribes to government officials in several African countries, including Tanzania, has been slapped with a $222 million fine by US authorities.
SAP is linked to offering bribes to top officials at the Tanzania Ports Authority (TPA) in 2014/2015 to win a tender and is alleged to have colluded with TPA insiders to get preferential treatment on other multiple government deals that were meant for competitive bidding.
