Deutsche Bank Working Hard To Prepare For M&A Wave, CFO Says

“For Deutsche Bank, we’ve been very focused on executing on our own strategy, and we think that strategy would prepare us to engage in merger activity when the time comes and the right opportunities arise,” von Moltke said.

“So we are expecting this wave but we are also working hard to prepare on our side,” he said.
