Deutsche Bank

Deutsche Bank, Germany's largest bank, is currently facing scrutiny due to a money laundering probe. Offices in Frankfurt and Berlin were recently raided by officials as part of an investigation into "unknown individuals and employees" at the bank. The investigation is being conducted by the Office of the Federal Prosecutor, involving the Federal Criminal Police Office. This news comes amidst broader global economic uncertainty, including fluctuations in gold and silver prices and trade tensions involving the US and Europe. While not directly related, the investigation adds to the bank's challenges in a volatile economic climate. The Daily Mail owner also secured funding for a £500m takeover of the Telegraph.
