German Supreme Court ends 18-year Porsche-VW dispute, rejects €5.4B fund claims

Germany's highest court dismissed appeals by hedge funds seeking €5.4 billion plus interest from Porsche SE over its failed 2008 Volkswagen takeover attempt, ending an 18-year legal saga. The ruling removes a long-standing overhang for Porsche SE and clarifies legal limits on takeover maneuvers, though the funds may pursue further European remedies.
