The Securities and Exchange Commission found that Och-Ziff used intermediaries, agents and business partners to pay bribes to high-level government officials to manage money for Libya's sovereign wealth fund, the $60 billion Libyan Investment Authority, Tripoli, and to secure mining rights in Libya, Chad, Niger, Guinea and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. As part of a settlement announced Sept. 29, Och-Ziff Capital Management Group will pay nearly $200 million to settle SEC charges of bribing African government officials, and a criminal penalty of $213 million as part of a deferred prosecution agreement with the Justice Department. Och-Ziff Chairman and CEO Daniel S. Och will pay nearly $2.2 million to settle charges he violated certain provisions of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, along with Chief Financial Officer Joel M. Frank, who also settled the charges but whose penalty will be announced later.
