Raid at Deutsche Bank Headquarters Over Cum-Cum Tax Evasion Suspicions
On July 22, 2026, investigators from the public prosecutor's office and tax investigation raided the headquarters of Deutsche Bank in Frankfurt am Main. The search is focused on suspicions of tax evasion linked to cum-cum transactions, a method used to reduce capital gains tax by shifting shares around dividend record dates. While cum-cum transactions are not inherently illegal, unlike criminal cum-ex deals, they are increasingly viewed with skepticism by judges and investigators. Reporters from Business Insider and WELT observed multiple groups entering the building. The investigation is ongoing, and more details are expected shortly.
