The Trump Organization's financial statements for more than a decade relied on misleading valuations of its real estate assets, according to the New York Attorney General Office.
To secure economic benefits, such as loans, insurance coverage, and tax deductions, were used to secure potentially misleading valuations.
According to the filing by AG Letitia James, Allen Weisselberg and Jeffrey McConney played a role in crafting the financial statements at the crux of the investigation.
More than 40 witnesses were interviewed in the investigation.
The filing was made in response to the Trump Organization and former President Donald Trump's appeal of a judge's order last month that Trump and two of his adult children had to submit to interviews under oath.
James has been looking into the business owned by Donald Trump.
The probe was sparked by sworn testimony.
Cohen told Congress that the Trump Organization had given different valuations for the same properties in order to get more favorable terms on loans and insurance.
