Airbus Accused of Fraud

Aircraft makers rely on "export credits" in order to lower costs of introducing a plane to a new market. Pending an investigation by the British government, Airbus may be barred from receiving export credits from the country on the grounds of "overseas agents" being used by the company. This follows Airbus being investigated for apparent bribery in connection with a $3.3 billion contract. (www.reuters.com) المزيد...
