Munich - Munich 2018 Olympics bid officials have full faith in International Olympic Committee members and are not worried by sponsorship deals from South Korean companies.
'We have have no doubt in the integrity of IOC members (Denis) Oswald and (Ottavio) Cinquanta,' said Munich bid chief Bernhard Schwank on Thursday.
Oswald and Cinquanta are members of the IOC, which will elect the 2018 host city on July 6, 2011. South Korea's Pyeongchang and Annecy, France are also in the running.
Oswald is head of the ruling rowing body FISA which has signed a sponsorship deal with Samsung Electronics. Korean Air has a contract with the skating federation ISU presided over by Cinquanta.
