It was a number of years ago that they were revealed, the advanced tax schemes that swindled not only Denmark but several European treasuries out of multi-billion amounts.
On Thursday, one of the court rulings came in London, where the Danish tax authority lost.
The scheme came to be called cum-ex and briefly consisted of a network of banks, lawyers and brokers in Europe exploiting holes in tax legislation which meant they could manipulate the tax in connection with dividend payments.
More verdicts are expected further ahead in, among other places, Germany and France.
