Register entry

Carlos Ghosn is recorded in this register under the heading “Court record”, in connection with the role of Former chairman, Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi. The entry is filed to Paris · Amsterdam (France · Netherlands), which is the location associated with the role in the published material rather than a statement of present residence or employment.

French investigators examined payments through a Dutch group entity and an Omani distributor. No trial verdict has been recorded. The register reproduces the substance of the linked source and does not extend it. Where a matter has been appealed, reopened, or closed without findings, that position is stated as the source states it, and the summary line for this entry reads: “Subject of French charges relating to alleged misuse of corporate funds; he denies wrongdoing and remains outside French jurisdiction.”

The entry rests on a published judicial decision or an established news agency report of one. It records the finding as the court expressed it, and nothing beyond it. Readers assessing counterparty, employment or reputational risk should treat this page as a signpost to the primary material — cited here as French judicial authorities / Reuters — and should verify current status directly with the issuing court, authority or publisher before acting. Corrections and right-of-reply requests are handled through the register's legal notice.
