Deutsche Bank, the leading German bank, is primarily involved in providing range of financial products and services. It segregates the operations into three key groups: Corporate and Investment Bank; Private Clients and Asset Management; and Corporate Investments. Corporate and Investment Bank segment is further subdivided into Corporate Banking and Securities and Global Transaction Banking, and contributes the major chunk i.e. over 60% to the over all revenues. The Private Clients and Asset Management segment, which provides asset management services to variety of clients also contribute a significant portion to the tally, and is an important driver for future growth.

The company’s core function of investment banking has a strong correlation with capital markets. As Deutsche operates internationally in most of the key markets, it is heavily influenced by global scenario. The future of the global capital market appears very exciting, as financial assets which now are worth a little over $136 trillion, are expected to cross $228 trillion by 2010, backed by higher liquidity and strong growth in emerging markets.

The German major has witnessed a phenomenal run in 2006, as net profit increased by 70%, backed by recovery in investment banking revenues and strong growth in trading income. The investment banking segment was the major driver of growth as trading, underwriting and advisory services showed healthy performance. Looking ahead, the booming capital markets and the aggressive cost reduction like over 60,000 staff reduced in 2005, will work well for the company in the long run. Adding to it, the recent acquisitions of Norisbank and Berliner Bank will aid the company to further enhance its foothold in Germany. Moreover, considering company’s lower price to earning multiple in comparison to its peers, the solid return on equity and rising margins makes Deutsch bank a sturdy investment for 2007.
