On February 2, a Japanese multinational electronics corporation disclosed that its U.S. subsidiary was being investigated by the DOJ and SEC for possible violations of the FCPA and other related laws.  According to its press release, the company is cooperating in the investigation and recently began settlement discussions with both agencies.  The countries at issue in the investigation have not been disclosed.

Although the company had not spoken publicly about the probe until this week, the Wall Street Journal first reported the investigation in 2013.  The subsidiary company makes in-flight entertainment and communication systems for airlines.
