"Grease payment" nghĩa là gì?


"Grease payment" = khoản bôi trơn -> nghĩa là tiền hối lộ cho quan chức, doanh nhân. 

Ví dụ
Facilitation (tạo điều kiện) payments are bribes and are prohibited (cấm). . . A facilitation payment or “grease payment” is a small sum of money paid to a Government Official in order to expedite (xúc tiến) routine and nondiscretionary (không tùy tiện) activities, such as obtaining a visa or work order, installing telephone service, or initiating electrical service.

A facilitating payment, often referred to as a grease payment, is a payment that is made to influence the timing of something like a permit and not intended to influence the outcome of routine government actions.

Still, there's tons of grey area. The FCPA distinguishes (phân biệt) between a "grease payment" (paying an official to do something he was already going to do, but faster) and a bribe. Plus, at what point does a "gift" turn into a "bribe"?

“Site clearance for property projects is faster than in public service projects because the investors (nhà đầu tư) in property projects are able to ‘grease payment’ for the site clearance team and for displaced residents,” it said.
