    French regulator fines Amundi entities and Tullett Prebon

    Fine or penalty

    France's AMF fined Amundi Asset Management €25 million, Amundi Intermediation €7 million and Tullett Prebon €5 million after finding they manipulated prices in the Euro Stoxx 50 Futures market. Amundi disputes the market-manipulation claims and appealed the decision; it had reimbursed the client before the decision.

    Company response

    • Refund or compensation — Amundi

      Amundi has since reimbursed the client prior to the AMF’s decision.
    • Denial — Amundi

      Amundi recognises the AMF’s ruling has merit, the firm disputes claims of market manipulation and has appealed the decision.
