  • A Dubai court on Monday rejected a Danish request to extradite a British citizen who is one of the main suspects in the so-called Cum-Ex tax fraud case.
  • The scheme allegedly involved submitting applications to the government on behalf of investors and companies from around the world for dividend tax refunds.
  • The scope of the scandal has been biggest in Germany, where Chancellor Olaf Scholz had to fend off allegations that he, as the former mayor of Hamburg, was involved in the decision to let a bank off the hook.
