Further to its earlier statement regarding criminal cartel charges expected to be laid by the Commonwealth Director of Public Prosecutions (CDPP) against ANZ and its Group Treasurer Rick Moscati, the ACCC can confirm that Deutsche Bank AG is one of the two other companies against which charges are expected to be laid, along with a number of individuals.

The expected charges follow an extensive ACCC criminal cartel investigation.

The ACCC will not make any further comment until charges are laid.
