Deutsche Bank announces continued delivery of Global Hausbank strategy

The company said, “Deutsche Bank (DB) continued to accelerate execution on all dimensions of its Global Hausbank strategy during the first half of 2025. Progress included: Revenue growth: the bank’s compound annual revenue growth rate since 2021 over the last twelve months was 5.9% at the end of the first half of 2025, within the bank’s raised target range of between 5.5% and 6.5%. Assets under management across the Private Bank and Asset Management rose by EUR 109B in the last twelve months, driven in part by net inflows of EUR 41B in the first half of 2025 which offset the negative impact of FX movements. Operational efficiency: Deutsche Bank made further progress toward completing its EUR 2.5B operational efficiency program during the first half of 2025. Measures include optimization of the bank’s platform in Germany and workforce reduction, particularly in non-client facing roles. At the end of the first half of 2025, cumulative savings either realized or expected from completed efficiency measures grew to EUR 2.2B, approximately 90% of the program’s expected total savings, including approximately EUR 2.1B in realized savings to date, as the bank realized cost savings from restructuring and other workforce reduction measures in prior periods, hiring discipline and internal mobility. Capital efficiency: Deutsche Bank delivered RWA reductions of a further EUR 2B during the quarter, predominantly through two securitization transactions. As a result, cumulative RWA equivalent benefits from capital efficiency measures reached EUR 30B, the high end of the bank’s year-end 2025 target range of EUR 25-30B.”
