“The chancellery were really frighteningly naive towards lobbying for Wirecard,” Lisa Paus, a member of the finance committee for the Greens party, said Wednesday in an interview with Bloomberg Television. “In particular, he outlined a 16-point plan on how we will monitor things more closely in the future and improve supervision,” Binding said Wednesday in an interview with DLF radio. He added that he is opposed to personnel changes at BaFin and said that no evidence has yet been provided that the authority’s president, Felix Hufeld, “made any mistakes.”
