Global Presence

Global presence (world map)

Increasing globalization and the disappearance of geographical boundaries favours institutions which have built strong positions in emerging growth regions of the world. Deutsche Bank, with its presence in 76 countries around the world and more than 70% of revenues in 2007 generated outside its home market, is one of the most “global” banks in the world.

As a leading global investment bank, Deutsche Bank also benefits from the growing importance of capital markets. Deutsche Bank has a business model which places an emphasis on innovative, high-value products and customized solutions for demanding clients, both from public and private sector.

The demand for investment products is also growing around the world. In Germany and other mature markets, the need for private retirement funding drives this demand. In (Glossary)emerging markets such as Asia, Central or Eastern Europe and Latin America, creation of new wealth brings with it the growing need for private investment. With close to one trillion Euros of invested assets by clients at the end of 2007, Deutsche Bank is well-positioned to benefit from this trend, thanks to our strong positions in retail and institutional fund management, as well as a strong foothold in the fast-growing area of (Glossary)alternative investments. Furthermore, Deutsche Bank benefits from product development synergies across our business divisions, combining the capital markets expertise of our Investment Bank with the market intelligence of our salesforce to meet clients’ needs.
