De Sanctis, who assumes the role with immediate effect, was previously Head of Wealth Management in Europe, which serves clients in around 30 countries including Deutsche Bank’s home market of Germany. He was also Chief Country Officer of Switzerland, a role he will retain.
He joined Deutsche Bank Wealth Management in December 2018 from Credit Suisse, where he spent five years, initially as Market Area Head Southeast Asia for Private Banking, Asia Pacific, and most recently as Head of Private Banking, Europe.
Karl von Rohr, Deutsche Bank President and Member of the Management Board responsible for the Private Bank, which includes Deutsche Bank Wealth Management, said: “Deutsche Bank Wealth Management is one of the key pillars of Deutsche Bank’s strategy to increase its share of revenues from stable sources.”
He added: “Claudio is a consummate wealth manager and decisive leader who has already made a significant positive impact in Europe over the past year. He has the experience and capabilities to make the most of our investment in growing this high-potential client business.”
With assets under management of approximately 215 billion euros (as at September 30, 2019), Deutsche Bank Wealth Management is one of the largest wealth managers worldwide. Earlier this year it embarked on a plan to hire an additional 300 client-facing employees globally by 2021 as well as investing in its existing people, systems and technology. De Sanctis united the Europe region to include Germany where Wealth Management is the market leader, hired dozens of prominent bankers, and generated an increase in net new assets excluding deposits in the past two quarters.
