Airbus finalises CJIP agreement with French authorities

Toulouse, 30 November 2022 - The President of the Tribunal Judiciaire of Paris has approved the Convention Judiciaire d'Intérêt Public (CJIP) signed on 17 November 2022 between Airbus SE and the French Parquet National Financier (PNF). This CJIP covers past matters relating to the use of intermediaries in sales campaigns prior to 2012, in particular related to Libya and Kazakhstan. These could not be dealt with simultaneously with the 2020 CJIP for procedural reasons.

According to the CJIP approved on 30 November, Airbus will have to pay a fine of 15,856,044 Euros. There is no monitorship obligation associated with this new CJIP.

This CJIP will have no adverse impact on the 2020 settlements reached with the French, UK and US authorities in the context of their compliance investigations into Airbus.

The Company has taken significant steps since 2016 to reform itself by implementing a benchmark compliance system underpinned by an unwavering commitment to integrity and continuous improvement.
