I don”t know if this is a specific German issue, but lately a lot of deals become public, where banks and analysts are found to abuse their power to increase the IPO-value of startups or systematic damaging of reputation and corporate value i.e. by publishing misleading information or cancelling given credits without cause, just to take over control of dependent companies. So Joachim Hunold now filing official protest against Dresdner Kleinwort is sure an overdue step. Even German national television (ARD) named that lately in a report “Mafia-methods”.
So with my respect: Good luck Mr. Hunold!
