Samherji Fishing by Wikborg Rein

.

Chapter 7 in Investigation Reports, 2021, pp 100-119 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Instead of making the report of investigation by law firm Wikborg Rein publicly available, the Icelandic seafood company Samherji leaked and manipulated information from the investigation. Samherji was accused of paying bribes to trawl an African country’s waters. Two ministers in Namibia had to resign and faced prosecution in court. Convenience themes for Samherji management included individual possibilities for receivers of bribes and corporate possibilities for providers of bribes, status of receivers of bribes, access to resources by providers of bribes, rational choice for the providers of bribes, and neutralization of guilt among receivers of bribes. Bribes were transferred from Iceland via the Norwegian bank DNB to ministers in Namibia.
