5 Dec 2024 McKinsey and Company Africa (Pty) LtdMcKinsey Africa: USD 122.85m for bribery at two South African state-owned companies €116.6m
The South African subsidiary of McKinsey & Company entered into a three-year DPA with a penalty of USD 122,850,000; up to half is credited against payments to South African authorities. According to the Department, between at least 2012 and 2016 it obtained confidential information from two South African state-owned companies (logistics and energy) on consulting contracts and bid knowing that South African partner firms would pass part of their fees on to officials as bribes. According to the Department, the profit from the scheme was about USD 85 million.
Local partner firms in consortia with state-owned enterprises need the same anti-corruption vetting as one's own intermediaries, including how their fees are used.
