Daimler to Settle With U.S. on Bribes

Daimler AG has agreed to pay $185 million to resolve a long-running U.S. investigation into allegations that the German auto maker paid tens of millions of dollars in bribes to secure business overseas, according to a person familiar with the matter.

The agreement would end a U.S. Justice Department probe into whether Daimler violated U.S. antibribery laws and a related civil investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission, which were sparked by a former employee's complaint in 2004.
