Why Elon Musk should list Tesla in Germany:
backing down. In Germany, Elon could probably tweet “funding secured” every day and get away with it.
Germans have a reputation for being rule abiding people, almost to a fault. To those not enamored with U.S. president Donald Trump, Germany presents itself as a bastion of liberal democracy and rule of law. So naturally you’d think that with all the criticism of Wirecard, German regulators would act quickly to investigate the company. In fact, the opposite happened.
Germany’s response, which would likely cause Elon to light up a celebratory joint, is – believe it or not – entirely consistent with how it has handled criticism of its public companies in recent years. Back in 2016, my firm wrote a highly critical report on the German advertising firm Ströer. Despite our track record of six de-listings, numerous investor and government recoveries, etc., German authorities actually opened a criminal investigation into me.

The fraud at Volkswagen was so egregious and widespread that multiple executives are going to prison, and the fines will total in the tens of billions of dollars.
