Mattersburg . The former third deputy chairman of the supervisory board, Ernst Zimmermann, emphasized on Thursday in the U committee for Commerzialbank Mattersburg (Cb) that he had not known about any irregularities until the bank was closed. He explained that growth was due to the “lean personnel structure”. In supervisory board meetings, questions were often received from ex-bank boss Martin Pucher.
He once questioned the Macom project, which was supposed to produce oil binders for which world patents were to be obtained. He saw on television that similar means were used in an oil spill. “I mentioned that because they always said it was a world first. The reactions were violent. “
This led to some members of the supervisory board having stopped “asking in detail”. The supervisory boards would have accepted Pucher's complaints. Zimmermann sees his decisive demeanor as the reason for this and quotes a former district captain of Mattersburg: “God knows everything, but Pucher knows better.” (APA)
