NEW YORK (Reuters) – Herbalife (NYSE:HLF) Nutrition Ltd has entered a deferred prosecution agreement to settle U.S. government charges it provided corrupt payments and benefits to Chinese officials, including in government agencies and media outlets, to boost its business in China, a federal prosecutor said on Friday.
At a court hearing, the prosecutor said Herbalife is being charged with one count of conspiracy to violate books and records provisions of the federal Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.
