Can anyone give me more information about DB's group strategy (AFK) division?

Hi all, I'm applying for a spring week in DB's group strategy division (AFK). I read on the website that it is responsible for shaping the bank's strategy but also takes care of M&A. Does anyone have more information about it? Such as what are its specific tasks?

Thank you for helping!
