KEY POINTS

  • Deutsche Bank settled a 152-million-euro lawsuit with a former investment banker.
  • The Frankfurt Regional Court canceled the hearing scheduled for Thursday.
  • Four additional lawsuits with a total value of around 700 million euros are pending in London.
  • The bank has previously settled out of court with another former employee.

Deutsche Bank has resolved a 152-million-euro lawsuit filed by a former investment banker through an out-of-court settlement. A bank spokesperson stated that both parties confidentially settled all claims and allegations, while specific details of the agreement remain undisclosed.

The Frankfurt Regional Court canceled a hearing scheduled for Thursday after the claimant withdrew the lawsuit. The former investment banker had demanded damages amounting to hundreds of millions of euros regarding past transactions with the Italian bank Banca Monte dei Paschi di Siena.

The settlement of this legal dispute will only have a small financial effect in the third quarter of 2026.

Deutsche Bank spokesperson

The claimant had argued that the bank used questionable accounting methods and made him a scapegoat when authorities and the press noticed. Deutsche Bank has repeatedly rejected the claims and considers all such lawsuits to be groundless.

Four similar lawsuits remain pending in London with a total disputed value of around 700 million euros. Meanwhile, the financial institution has already reached an out-of-court agreement with a sixth former employee.
