Nokia Oyj, the smartphone maker trying to revive sales with new devices unveiled last week, said an ethics officer will conduct a review into why the company published misleading marketing materials for the products.

The ethics and compliance officer is working on an independent report “to understand what happened,” Susan Sheehan, a Nokia spokeswoman, said today in an interview. Nokia said last week it was sorry for not making clear that a promotional video and still photos within that clip weren’t captured with its new Lumia 920 smartphone.
