The asset management arm of Deutsche Bank agreed to pay $25 million in penalties across two separate settlements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) addressing alleged misstatements in environmental, social, and governance (ESG) investments and anti-money laundering (AML) violations.
DWS Investment Management Americas was fined $19 million as part of the ESG action and $6 million for the AML lapses, the SEC announced in a press release Monday.
