    Definition misappropriation of funds that enriches a person of power or influence who uses the power or influence to make a different individual, organization, or company richer Reference 'kickbacks'. Cornell University Law School. Legal Information Institute. Kickbacks: an Overview, http://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/kickbacks [29.11.2016]
    Comment Often, kickbacks result from a corrupt bidding scheme. Through corrupt bidding, the official can award the contract to a company, even though the company did not place the lowest bid. The company profits by having been awarded the bid and getting to perform the contract. In exchange for this corrupt practice, the company pays the official a portion of the profits. This portion is the 'kickback.'See also:- bribe [ IATE:751070 ]- misappropriation of funds [ IATE:763208 ]
