In the current issue of the Zeitschrift für Bank- und Kapitalmarktrecht, Professor Möllers has published the article “Der Anwendungsbereich des KapMuG - vor und nach dem Zweiten Gesetz zur Reform des KapMuG”.
On the occasion of the latest reform of the KapMuG 2024 and two upcoming court decisions in the proceedings against Ernst & Young, the article again asks whether the auditor's opinion constitutes public capital market information within the meaning of section 1 (2) KapMuG. For old proceedings, the result already found by Möllers, BKR 2022, 339 remains the same: The auditor's report does not fall within the scope of application of the KapMuG and the actions in the Wirecard complex are therefore not eligible for model proceedings.

The work “Juristische Methodenlehre” by Professor Möllers has fortunately already gone through five editions since 2017 and was quickly sold out each time. It has received numerous reviews in Germany and abroad and is cited in case law and legal literature. An English-language version was published in 2020 and an edition in Chinese followed with the 4th edition in 2021. Fortunately, it is now used at many universities to prepare for the First State Examination and in the legal clerkship for the Second State Examination. (...)
