Thrusday October 15, 2026 Bafin Fines VW $1.3 Million
Baffin, the German financial regulator, last week fined VW $1.3 million on the grounds that the company had violated the market abuse regulation.
VW's forecast for the 2023 financial year was significantly above market expectations.

Instead, the company merely published this inside information in a press release, Baffin said.
Companies such as VW that are domiciled in Germany and that issue securities and other financial instruments that are traded on an organized market in Germany are subject to ad hoc disclosure obligations.
