Rudolfine Steindling funds litigation
A Swiss court initially held that predecessor Länderbank had unlawfully assisted Rudolfine Steindling in channeling former East German funds to her own accounts and ordered a payment of €240 million. A higher court later overturned the decision on formal grounds. The dispute concerned a predecessor institution and its historical conduct rather than establishing a final finding against the current Bank Austria entity.
