Anshu Jain, co-CEO of Deutsche Bank, will be replaced by John Cryan, a former UBS executive, who has no connections to investment banking. Deutsche Bank's investment banking operations would have to take on more leverage to be competitive with larger investment banks, according to experts. This would put the bank in serious problems with regulators. Another problem evident at the recent shareholders meeting is that the old management is perceived as part of the problem that led to large legal settlements with authorites. Anshu Jain leaves at the end of June, and the other co-CEO Jurgen Fitschen will leave in 2016. This closes a chapter in Deutsche Bank's history in which its image in Germany has suffered badly because of investigations.

Deutsche Bank's image in Germany 2008-2015

01/02/2009

Deutsche Bank's image takes a hit in an alleged carbon credit value added tax fraud. Its headquarters in Frankfurt are raided by German police and investigators. Co-CEO Jurgen Fitschen's call to the Governor of Hesse protesting the raid is criticized in Germany as intervening in an ongoing investigation of the bank. Earlier Deutsche Bank's role in the 2008 financial crisis with its participation in the mortgage securities market in the U.S. came under criticism. This also raised the question whether a change in management with the two new co-CEO's made in mid 2012 has changed the culture at the bank.

Deutsche Bank's strategy review in 2015 and plans for selling Postbank and retail operations

04/20/2015

The Executive Board of Deutsche Bank is considering sale of Post Bank. By selling Postbank which it acquired for $6 billion in 2008 and disposing of the retail operations, Deutsche Bank would end up becoming more of an investment bank like Goldman Sachs in the U.S. Deutsche Bank is considering the sale of $200 billion in assets.This is the plan favored by investors which led to an increase in share price by 32% in 2015. Unicredit bank in Italy closed half of its retail branches and shifted to online banking.
