Two become one in Deutsche’s latest private banking plan

The German lender has named Claudio de Sanctis as its new head of private bank and created a single, unified division – part of longstanding plans to generate more income from the business by rooting out inefficiencies and tapping into new global income streams.

Deutsche Bank’s latest private-banking plan is a reorganization, rather than a restructure or a reshuffle. It is designed to streamline, to eliminate duplication and inefficiency, to hone reporting lines, and to squeeze the most out of key investments in digital.

At the heart of the process is Claudio de Sanctis. On July 1, the Italy-born wealth manager was promoted by chief executive Christian Sewing from head of international private bank (IPB) to head of the private bank and member of the management board, with a clear remit to oversee the German lender’s global wealth-management and private-banking operations.
