22 Aug 2025 Varengold Bank AGBaFin: 3.3 million EUR fine and penalty payment against Varengold Bank €3.8m
By decision of 22 August 2025, Germany's Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin) imposed a fine of 3.3 million EUR because the bank systematically filed suspicious activity reports late from June 2023 to March 2025; in February 2025, a penalty payment of 500,000 EUR had already been imposed for failure to comply with a 2023 order concerning Iran-related transactions (total 3.8 million EUR). In addition, in July 2025 BaFin ordered comprehensive remediation of the deficiencies in money laundering prevention, with an action plan and reporting obligations.
Failing to implement a supervisory order risks penalty payments and a comprehensive package of measures in addition to the fine.
