    Abstract

    Deutsche Bahn AG (DB) is a government-owned railway company in Germany and a leading provider of mobility, transport and logistics services in Europe. Since 1994 it has gone a long way of significant investments in modernization, expansion, acquisition, and diversification that is preparing the company for stock-listing which the German federal government agreed to take place as soon as 2007. However, this success did not come about without overcoming serious challenges. In the ambitious run-up to modernizing its infrastructure as quickly as possible, DB launched big infrastructural programs with multi-million budgets. Not all of them were awarded in a transparent and competitive way, a business practice that led to serious corruption accusations in the beginning of the year 2000.
