The bribery allegation involved the World Bank-financed Emergency Monrovia Urban Sanitation Project.

According to a report published on the World Bank's website, Zoomlion paid bribes to facilitate contract execution and processing of invoices.

Accordingly, Zoomlion will not qualify for any contract financed by the World Bank Group for a period of two years.

The two-year ban took effect on September 24, 2013.

The World Bank said Zoomlion needed to demonstrate full and satisfactory compliance with the World Bank Integrity standards in order for the ban to be lifted.

The bank said Zoomlion had itself acknowledged wrongdoing and had accepted full responsibility.

“This is a case where a company under a World Bank investigation is demonstrating responsibility for wrongdoing by enforcing disciplinary action and committing to a new standard of integrity governing its operations,” said Leonard McCarthy, World Bank Integrity Vice President.

“Promoting this type of corporate responsibility while holding companies accountable for wrongdoing is one of the strategic pillars of the World Bank’s anticorruption strategy," he added.
