Delivery Hero Investor Aspex Calls for Review of Legal Fines

Delivery Hero SE’s second largest shareholder is ramping up pressure on the food delivery company by threatening to appoint a special auditor to investigate its legal liabilities.

In a letter sent to Delivery Hero’s supervisory board, Aspex Management wrote that a bill of more than €1.5 billion ($1.7 billion) for legal provisions and contingent liabilities represented an “existential” issue for the company.
