Dear friends, dear interested,<\/p>\n

On my initiative, the European Parliament\u2019s Committee for Economic and Monetary Affairs, jointly with the Committee for Legal Affairs, will hold a hearing on lessons from the Wirecard case tomorrow, 23 March. I am particularly happy that our invitation was accepted by journalist Dan McCrum<\/b> of the Financial Times whose stubborn investigations played a key role in making Wirecard\u2019s house of cards collapse. Further speakers are Katja Langenbucher<\/b> (Professor at Goethe University Frankfurt), Daniela Bergdolt <\/b>(Deutsche Schutzvereinigung f\u00fcr Wertpapierbesitz e.V.) und Matthias Hauer <\/b>(Member of the investigative committee on the Wirecard case of the German Bundestag).<\/p>\n

The public hearing takes place on Tuesday, 23 March 2021 from 13h45 to 15h45 and can be followed live here (no registration required):<\/b><\/p>\n
