SAO PAULO (Reuters) - Brazil's petrochemical company Braskem SA (SA:BRKM5) said in a securities filing on Friday it was "in advanced talks" with authorities in Brazil and the United States related to a corruption investigation known as "Operation Carwash."
On Thursday, Braskem's parent Odebrecht SA [ODBES.UL], Latin America's largest engineering firm, signed a leniency deal with prosecutors in Brazil's biggest graft case.
