马来西亚1MDB与德意志银行进入和解谈判，吉隆坡高院10月26日开庭审理相关诉讼
吉隆坡——马来西亚国家基金一马发展有限公司（1MDB）正在与德意志银行（Deutsche Bank）就和解一宗法律纠纷进行谈判。路透社10月12日援引马来西亚财经媒体《The Edge》的报道称，1MDB的律师林志伟（Lim Chee Wee，音译）10月12日（周一）在另一宗案件的法庭上透露了这一进展。马来西亚仍在继续追讨这宗腐败丑闻中被指流失的数十亿美元。
林志伟向法庭表示，1MDB正与德意志银行就一项拟议和解进行谈判，他已把谈判细节提交吉隆坡高等法院。《The Edge》的报道没有披露纠纷的具体内容。马来西亚法院网站显示，法院定于10月26日（周一）开庭审理1MDB起诉德意志银行及其他机构的案件。林志伟在路透社联系时拒绝置评，德意志银行同样拒绝置评。
1MDB于2021年起诉德意志银行及另外数家金融机构，寻求追回其所称与丑闻中不当行为有关的数十亿美元资产。德意志银行当时表示，不知悉针对该行提出正当索赔的任何依据。
1MDB丑闻是全球瞩目的金融案件之一。美国检察官指称，2009年至2014年间，至少45亿美元从1MDB被窃取，手法复杂、横跨多国，涉案者包括高层官员及其关联人士；马来西亚方面表示，另有数十亿美元去向不明。1MDB由前总理纳吉布·拉扎克（Najib Razak）共同创立，纳吉布本人已因相关案件在马来西亚获刑。此后，马来西亚政府与1MDB通过诉讼与和解等多种途径持续追讨资产，与德意志银行的谈判是最新一步；拟议和解能否达成、金额与条件如何，仍待后续披露。

Malaysia's 1MDB in Settlement Talks With Deutsche Bank; Kuala Lumpur Hearing Set for October 26
KUALA LUMPUR — Malaysia's state fund 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) is in talks to settle a legal dispute with Deutsche Bank, Reuters reported on October 12, citing local media, as the country continues its efforts to recover billions of dollars in alleged losses from a corruption scandal.
Lim Chee Wee, a lawyer for 1MDB, told a court in a separate case on Monday that the fund was in talks with Deutsche on a proposed settlement, The Edge financial newspaper reported, without providing details of the dispute. Lim said he had already passed on details about the talks to the Kuala Lumpur High Court, according to the report. Malaysia's court website showed that the court was scheduled to hear 1MDB's lawsuit against Deutsche and others on Monday, October 26. Lim declined to comment when contacted by Reuters, and Deutsche Bank also declined to comment.
In 2021, 1MDB sued Deutsche Bank and several other financial organisations to recover billions in assets that it said were linked to misconduct related in the scandal. Deutsche said at the time that it was not aware of any basis for a legitimate claim against the bank.
The 1MDB scandal is one of the world's most closely watched financial cases. U.S. prosecutors have alleged that at least $4.5 billion was stolen from 1MDB, co-founded by former Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak, in a complex, globe-spanning scheme by high-level officials and their associates from 2009 to 2014. Malaysia has said billions more remain unaccounted for. Najib himself has been convicted in Malaysia in connection with the affair. Malaysia and 1MDB have since pursued asset recovery through lawsuits and settlements on several fronts; whether the talks with Deutsche Bank produce a settlement, and on what terms, has yet to be disclosed.
