- Now the DOJ has filed a motion in the Southern District of New York to dismiss the deferred charges.
- "This is a significant milestone for our company which demonstrates the strong progress we have made in building a robust and sustainable compliance program across our business," says Chairman/CEO Ursula Burns. "A culture of ethics and compliance is now reflected in our structures, procedures and daily ways of working."
