Deutsche Bank AG (ISIN: DE0005140008, NYSE: DB) (English: German Bank) is a bank operating worldwide and employing more than 75,000 people (June, 2007). Its headquarters, the Deutsche Bank Twin Towers, are located in Frankfurt, Germany. Dr. Josef Ackermann is its CEO and Chairman of the Group Executive Committee), Dr. Clemens Börsig is the Chairman of the Supervisory Board. Deutsche Bank, ranked by revenues and profits, is one of the largest investment banks in the world.
Deutsche Bank was founded in Germany on January 22, 1870 as a specialist bank for foreign trade in Berlin by the private banker Adelbert Delbruck and the politician Ludwig Bamberger. Its first branches outside Germany were opened in Shanghai, Yokohama (1872) and London (1873). The first directors were Wilhelm Platenius, Georg von Siemens, and Hermann Wallich. Deutsche Bank acquired the banks Berliner Bank-Verein and Deutsche Union-Bank in 1876 and became then the largest bank in Germany, surpassing the Disconto-Gesellschaft.
In July 1972, eight notable graphic artists were commissioned to create a new logo for Deutsche Bank that would unmistakably represent the company. From a choice of several brand designs, Deutsche Bank decided upon a symbol created by the now deceased painter and graphic artist from Stuttgart, Anton Stankowski: the “slash in a square”, as the construction was described. This logo fulfils Deutsche Bank's criteria:
With a simple yet striking form, the symbol has a high attention-provoking and recognition value. The logo supports the identity of Deutsche Bank: the “slash” stands for consistent growth and dynamic development, the square-shaped frame can be interpreted as a sign of security and a controlled environment. In a nutshell, the logo stands for consistent growth in a secured environment. It is striking, unmistakable and timeless It can be used in all media.
The logo can be clearly recognised when reduced in size and at great distances. The combination of the company name Deutsche Bank and the square-shaped logo constitute since 1974 the Deutsche Bank brand.
Major projects in its first decades included the Northern Pacific Railroad in the United States (1883) and the Baghdad Railway (1888). It also financed bond offerings of the steel concern Krupp (1885) and introduced the chemical company Bayer on the Berlin stock market.
In 1957 these three banks merged and other takeovers followed, such as London investment bank Morgan Grenfell in 1989; Bankers Trust in New York in 1998, Crédit Lyonnais Belgium in Brussels in 1999, Moscow-based investment bank United Financial Group in Russia in 2006 and the German norisbank and Berliner Bank in 2007.
In 1995 Deutsche Bank began the transformation from a commercial bank to an investment bank and to provide expertise for investment banking products. By 2005 75% of the Bank's revenues came from investment banking, and the ROE went from 4% to 25%. Deutsche Bank is a world-class leader on the investment banking market, belonging to the so-called bulge bracket.
In 2006 the business in Germany became extended by the acquisition of the Berliner Bank and the Norisbank. Furthermore the Deutsche Bank started to offer financial services in Turkish language called 'Bankamiz' in its German branch banks in 2006.
