BGH keeps Olearius confiscation proceedings alive
Key takeaways
- The German legal core of Cum-Ex is largely settled, so the live stakes have shifted to confiscation, recovery, and institutional accountability.
- The Berger and Olearius cases show the scandal is still active through post-conviction challenges and no-trial asset recovery routes, not just new guilt findings.
- Cross-border recovery remains uneven, so each German procedural ruling still shapes how Europe interprets and pursues dividend-tax fraud cases.
