JP Morgan in Bribery Probe for China Hiring Practices





JP Morgan is under scrutiny by the US Securities and Exchange Commission, because of questionable hiring practices in China.

Due to China's business and political environments, companies with the right personal connections, or "guanxi" can sometimes gain a competitive advantage.
