Shanghai Court Fines Dun & Bradstreet Corp's Unit CNY1 Million-DJ
Dow Jones reported that a Shanghai court has fined Dun & Bradstreet Corp's Roadway unit CNY1 million ($160,648) and sentenced four former employees to up to two years each in prison for illegally buying information on Chinese consumers, a decision that could complicate the commercial database company's efforts to expand in China. The ruling, handed down by Shanghai's Zhabei district court in late December, wasn't immediately available. A source with direct knowledge provided details of the decision, saying four former Roadway employees were also fined between CNY5,000 and CNY10,000 (about $800 to $1,600 U.S.). A March 2012 investigation by state-controlled China Central Television alleged that Shanghai Roadway improperly purchased data on more than 150 million Chinese citizens from insurance companies, banks and other marketers. Police raided Roadway's offices, arrested a handful of workers and confiscated computer servers. D&B subsequently closed the direct marketing unit, which it acquired in 2009 for $28 million and whose customers included Dell and Ford, and began an investigation into whether its China employees had violated the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, a U.S. law that bans bribery of foreign officials.
