Our mix of various business activities results in diverse risk taking by our business divisions. We measure the key risks inherent in their respective business models through the undiversified Total Economic Capital metric, which mirrors each business division’s risk profile before taking into account cross-risk effects at the Group level.

Corporate Banking & Securities’ (CB&S) risk profile is dominated by its trading in support of origination, structuring and market making activities, which gives rise to market risk and credit risk. Further credit risks originate from exposures to corporates and financial institutions. Under CB&S’ current business model, the remainder is derived from operational risks and business risk, primarily from potential legal and earnings volatility risks, respectively.
In contrast to this, Private & Business Clients’ (PBC) risk profile is comprised of credit risk from retail, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) lending as well as nontrading market risk from investment risk, modeling of client deposits and credit spread risk.
Global Transaction Banking’s (GTB) focus on trade finance implies that the vast majority of its risk originates from credit risk with a small portion from market risk mainly in relation to derivative positions.
The main risk driver of Deutsche Asset & Wealth Management’s (Deutsche AWM) business are guarantees on investment funds, which we report as nontrading market risk. Otherwise Deutsche AWM’s advisory and commission focused business attracts primarily operational risk.
The Non-Core Operations Unit (NCOU) portfolio includes activities that are non-core to the Bank’s strategy; assets materially affected by business, environment, legal or regulatory changes; assets earmarked for de-risking; assets suitable for separation; and assets with significant capital absorption but low returns. NCOU’s risk profile covers risks across the entire range of our operations comprising credit risks and also market and operational risks (including legal risks) targeted where possible for accelerated de-risking.
