TOKYO -- Nissan Motor could be fined more than 2 billion yen ($18.6 million) after Japan's securities regulator decided on Wednesday to investigate allegations that the company understated former Chairman Carlos Ghosn's compensation, Nikkei has learned.
The Securities and Exchange Surveillance Commission plans to start on-site inspections at the Japanese automaker in the coming months. The SESC could ask later this year that the Financial Services Agency impose a fine.
