In core banking businesses, such as cash management and payments, it is a leading provider to large German companies. It is also a leading provider of risk management and treasury services including foreign exchange.

In the past 12 months Deutsche Bank has been bookrunner on a string of bond deals for DaimlerChrysler, a company to which it is particularly close through its ownership of a substantial equity stake.
