Akzo Nobel fined for cartel formingWednesday 11 November 2009 Chemicals group Akzo Nobel is one of 10 companies fined by European competition commissioner Neelie Kroes for cartel forming between 1987 and 2000. Akzo Nobel has been ordered to pay some €40m out of a total bill of €173m. Other companies in the cartel for plastics additives were Ciba, part of the BASF group and Total subsidiary Elf Aquitaine. 'They allocated markets between themselves. They shared customers,' Kroes said at a news conference. 'And they exchanged commercially sensitive information. Their aim was to deny customers throughout the EEA a competitive choice, with all that implies for prices.'

I'd like to ask anyone who works in dutch company (like Akzo, Tomtom, Ahold) What is with the work culture there? Is anything allowed? Any standards of not mistreating employees, or customers? Any values above monetary matters? I'm so happy to stick with American branches here, as any interaction with local corporations - yaiks.
