Several European countries are currently engaged in civil proceedings, regulatory settlements and criminal proceedings surrounding the fallout from CumEx trading, a dividend arbitrage trading practice that focussed on multiple tax rebate claims worth an estimated €55bn. European investigations are intensifying and there are significant ramifications in the UK for the banks and brokers involved, and potentially those advising them.
