Hi,

When was it not a top investment bank?
Deutsche Bank - can you rank it? (Originally Posted: 09/22/2010)
I told a friend of mine I am interested in DB, and what he said was that it's a third-league bank. Is this true? What should I shoot for then? I am a Computer Sciecne and Applied Math double major with no finance background or experience, trying to get my first internship as a quant or trader.
I would listen to your friend. Whats the point of going into finance if your friends don't think where you work is prestigious? I can see it now, your grandmother getting laughed out of her church group because her son works at DB.
Your friend is dumb.
Hahaha all sarcasm aside, it doesn't matter what your friend says, Deutsche is a tier 1 bank and anyone who argues against that overly focused on prestige in my opinion. You'll have all the resources you need to do well there.
DB is a well respected bank...Actually, all the BB and MMs that are known are pretty well respected
Tell your friend to go fuck himself and then dare him to do better.
DB is an excellent firm, your friend is a total idiot that probably works at a no-name boutique and finds himself special because he has a lot of "exposure to the complete deal process"... granted the deal is for the purchase of a 3-store deli "chain" in suburban indiana.
Lol yea... Deutsche is an awesome bank... along with all of the other BB's. Pick whichever one has the best fit for you culturally.
or pick whichever one actually offers you a position
DB is definintely tier 1 now.. maybe it wasnt when our parents were working on the street. their global markets division is better than m&a though
Deutsche Bank on the rise? (Originally Posted: 01/10/2013)
Hi, I've heard from a few people that Deutsche Bank's trading arm is on the rise and has strong prospects over the next few years. What do you guys think about that claim, and about DB in general?
I'm not sure about that. At home (in Germany), there is a lot of stuff going on in terms of further regulation for and investigation on DB and others. Especially since 2013 is election year in Germany, many politicians focus on anti-banking politics (what they say and what they will do in the end is a different story obviously).
Furthermore, no day goes by without any negative publicity on DB in one of the major newspapers at the moment. LIBOR scandal, Kirch lawsuit, investigation on Co-CEO Fitschen, you name it. I'm not sure how all this stuff that is going on right now will affect DB's business.
How does db compare to morgan stanley, barclays, or credit suisse?
DB's trading historically has always been more focused on facilitating customers, versus Goldman was always more prop (pretty sure around the globe, but HK I can say with certainty)
I'm not sure if the statement is true, but it were to be true then my guess would be because of the changing regulation environment is giving DB a competitive edge (i.e. having already establish a better client base).
I would say DB is considered in the equities space to being a bit more aggressive than other places.
Also interested, anyone else have perspective on DB trading?
