It provides the findings of an INT administrative inquiry (the“Investigation”) into allegations of corrupt, fraudulent, collusive, and/or coercive practices, as defined by the WBG for purposes of its own policies, rules and procedures (the “WBG’s Framework regarding Anti-corruption”), in relation to the WBG-supported activities. The purpose of the Investigation was to allow the WBG to determine if the WBG’s Framework regarding Anti-corruption has been violated.  \nThis Report is being shared to ensure that its recipients are aware of the results of the INT Investigation. However, in view of the specific and limited purpose of the Investigation underlying this Report, this Report should not be used as the sole basis for initiating any administrative, criminal, or civil proceedings. Moreover, this Report should not be cited or otherwise referred to in the course of any investigation, in any investigation reports, orin any administrative, civil, or criminal proceedings.  \nThis Report is provided without prejudice to the privileges and immunities conferred on the institutions comprising the WBG and their officers and employees by their respective constituent documents and any other applicable sources of law. The WBG reserves the right to invoke its privileges and immunities, including at any time during the course of an investigation or a subsequent judicial, administrative or other proceeding pursued in connection with this matter. The WBG’s privileges and immunities cannot be waived without the prior express written authorization ofthe WBG.  \nBackground  \nThe Chongqing Urban-Rural Integration Project (“CURIP”) aims to increase the access of residents in participating countries and districts to improved public services including roads, water supply, employment training, and primary healthcare. CURIP became effective in October 2010, and closed in June 2017. CURIP was financed by the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (“IBRD”) .  \nIn late 2011, the Project Implementing Unit (“PIU”) awarded a Project contract (the“Contract”) to a company (“Company A”) . Company A was required to provide the PIU with a commercial bank-issued performance security that was valid and enforceable until 28 days after the end of the one-year defects liability period. Company A provided, as required, the performance security. The PIU and Company A signed the approximately US$ 2 million Contract.  \nAllegations & Methodology  \nThe World Bank Group Integrity Vice Presidency (“INT”) received an allegation that Company A submitted a false performance security  \nINT’s investigation consisted of, among other things, a review of: (i) the CURIP documents; and (ii) statements provided to the PIU by the purported issuer of Company A’s performance security (the “Commercial Bank”) (as the Commercial Bank declined to communicate directly to INT) .  \nFindings  \nEvidence indicates that Company A provided the PIU with a fraudulent performance security with a false validity date.  \nCompany A was required to provide the PIU with a commercial bank-issued performance security within 14 days of receipt of the Notice of Contract Award. The performance security had to be valid and enforceable until 28 days after the end of the one-year defects liability period.  \nTo satisfy this requirement, Company A provided the PIU with a performance security purportedly issued by the Commercial Bank to Company A (the “Performance Security”) in early 2012. Evidence indicates that the Performance Security represented that it was valid until 28 days after the end of the defects liability period.  \nEvidence indicates that in early 2013, Company A ceased Contract performance.
