They've been dirty for at least twenty years. The mother of one of my daughter's friends worked for them and was almost indicted when their foreign exchange department was being investigated. Did she get punished as she deserved? Of course not. They came to some sort of deal with the U.S. Government then too, and she got a huge severance package to keep quiet. She hasn't worked a day since. Could never abide her, so none of it was a surprise.
It's one of the most corrupt institutions in the world, and that's saying something. Meanwhile there are all these surveys about how there isn't much corruption in Germany. I don't know if the common people are all stupid or they're just good at not admitting what's going on around them.
