Yes, that’s the gist of it. The compensation is linked to the death of the auditor put in charge of the investigation if I am not mistaken.
He either left or was fired and then had to seek cancer treatment. The Vatican refused to release his medical records, and, due to the state of healthcare in Italy, it was essentially a death sentence due to the wait time to see a specialist and restart the treatment process.
My hopes aren’t high regarding the outcome, but the fact this is even being addressed and getting news coverage seems important.

Especially since the real estate was in London.
That's how I heard about it initially, as a story of using the London property transfer as a way of laundering bribes.
But if the Vatican is broke there's no way they'll give the 700M compensation.
Guess they'll have to sell some of those investments
