Cum Ex - Wolfgang Schäuble
The majority of the damage caused by CUM-EX transactions were created between 2009 and 2011, said Greens politician Gerhard Schick. Schäuble "could have prevented this". The CDU politician could have signaled early on that business was criminal and he could have turned the public prosecutor on. Instead, it took three years to prevent Cum-Ex and seven years up to a cum cum shops that are similarly stored.
Cum Ex - Deutsche Bank
Justice acts have appeared that play the role of Deutsche Bank in the Cumex shops. The centerpiece is an internal paper, "German Listed Derivative Arbitrage Trade", from the spring of 2007. Here the experts list how the bank could benefit from the Cumex shops. Internal criticism of this was apparently ignored. The legal assessment was that the risk of being sued was low.

Now 70 former money managers of the Deutsche Bank are on the list of accused of the Cologne public prosecutor, including three former members of the board: CEO, the former co-CEO Anshu Jain and Garth Ritchie, former investment chief.

Investigators of the Cologne public prosecutor have searched the rooms of the world's largest asset manager Blackrock in Munich. It is about CUM-EX transactions from 2007 to 2011.

Cum Ex - Consultant & initiator - Hanno Berger
Berger is considered the leading consultant and initiator of dividend stripping transactions, which, according to a report by the weekly newspaper, caused the time to tax tax damage of over 55 billion euros.
Cum Ex - Operation business - Günter Graw
Günter G.'s career was initially successful - but ended on the dock of the Bonn Regional Court. There the fund manager of the Luxembourg company Sheridan must be the next banker for severe tax evasion of the Cum-Ex.

According to the public prosecutor, the accused would have almost caused a damage of 462 million euros. For the most part, the plan failed, which is why the indictment is essentially on "tried" tax evasion. But that is also punishable.
Graw was invited as a witness in the committee of inquiry of the German Bundestag.
