Renault :made at least one charitable donation to Stanford – a donor during the 2016-2017

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission:

has opened an investigation into whether Yokohama-based Nissan accurately disclosed executive compensation.

Nissan has said it is cooperating.

Nissan’s official filings:

in Japan and the U.S., where its shares trade as American depositary receipts, didn’t include any information about Ghosn’s benefits.

Under U.S. law, executives’ benefits are treated as taxable compensation, and U.S. public companies must report them to investors.

The Renault-Nissan alliance

Separately, made philanthropic donations

to a private high school near Paris attended by at least two of Ghosn’s children
to a debutante ball where two of his daughters were presented to society.

Ghosn’s Family:

eldest, Caroline, graduated from Stanford in 2008,
followed by daughters Nadine and Maya in 2011 and 2013, respectively,
and son Anthony in 2015.
Renault made at least one charitable donation to Stanford.

A university website lists the French company as a corporate donor during the 2016-2017 academic year

but it doesn’t specify the amount given or whether any was given while Ghosn’s children were students.

Renault didn’t respond to questions about any donations while Stanford confirmed one was made, but declined to provide details.
