> The company was secretly purchased for US $5.75 million and jointly owned by the American Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and West German Federal Intelligence Service (BND) from 1970 until about 1993, with the CIA continuing as sole owner until about 2018.

Literally the second sentence of the link you posted.

So no relevance in the context of Germany and BND.

Fair enough. Germany's BND involvement ended in 1993 it seems. Not so relevant anymore.
