With a settlement worth millions, Deutsche Bank has cleared further legal legacies in the USA.

The largest German financial institution pays over $ 125 million (102 million euros) on allegations of bribery in certain foreign transactions and manipulation in trading in precious metal contracts, according to US court documents on Friday.

In return, criminal proceedings by the US judicial authorities will be dropped.

"Even if we cannot comment on the details of the comparisons, we assume responsibility for these events that occurred between 2008 and 2017," said Deutsche Bank in a statement.

The affairs have been thoroughly investigated, and the company has fully cooperated with the Justice Department and the SEC.

The bank has taken significant measures and spent a lot of money to improve its processes.

The allegations of the US authorities are violations of the anti-corruption law "Foreign Corrupt Practices Act", with which the US can prosecute allegations of bribery beyond its own national borders.
