About the company

Deutsche Bank serves companies, institutions and individuals through Corporate Bank, Investment Bank, Private Bank and Asset Management. Its 2025 annual report also lists Corporate and Other as a reportable segment.

The map follows public segment reporting, with selected client categories below three businesses. It does not imply that DWS is a wholly owned internal department: the bank reported a 79.5 percent stake in its separately listed asset-management affiliate.

Four client businesses and a central reporting segment

Corporate Bank groups Institutional Client Services, Corporate Treasury Services and Business Banking. These are client and service categories within the bank's corporate business, not independent group segments.

Investment Bank spans Fixed Income and Currencies and Investment Banking and Capital Markets, with Research and Other also reported as a revenue category. Private Bank serves Wealth Management and Personal Banking clients.

Asset Management contains the consolidated results of listed DWS Group. Corporate and Other holds centrally managed revenues, costs and resources and accounting effects that are not allocated to the four businesses.

The Management Board and Supervisory Board have distinct legal roles. Christian Sewing appears at the top only as an entry point to the published business map; the tree does not disclose individual reporting lines.

How this structure supports the business

The four-business layer mirrors the bank's client offering and helps readers distinguish corporate transaction banking from investment banking and private-client services.

Calling out the listed DWS stake and Corporate and Other prevents a simplified bank chart from hiding both the external shareholder relationship and central financial reporting.

Advantages and disadvantages

Uses the bank's published reporting boundaries and client categories.

It omits geographic coverage, most legal entities and the matrix of group control functions.
