On Friday, an external corporate compliance monitoring committee from Samsung Group advised that the country’s largest conglomerate should re-join the Federation of Korean Industries (FKI), a business interest group which it withdrew from in the early stages of 2017 due to a high-profile corruption scandal involving its de facto leader Lee Jae-yong and the former President Park Geun-hye.

However, the committee stated that if a similar case of corruption occurs in the future, Samsung should withdraw from the FKI again.

The decision to leave the FKI was made in response to a promise from Lee, executive chairman of Samsung Electronics Co., to restore the public’s trust in the company.
