Frankfurt am Main, December 13, 2024
Deutsche Bank AG (XETRA: DBKGn.DE / NYSE: DB) has been informed by the European Central Bank (ECB) of its decision on prudential capital requirements with effect from January 1, 2025. These requirements follow the 2024 Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process (SREP).
From this date, Deutsche Bank will be required to hold a Pillar 2 requirement (P2R) of 2.90% for solvency purposes, and a Pillar 2 requirement for the leverage ratio (P2R-L) of 10 basis points.
Deutsche Bank’s 2025 requirements are as follows:
Deutsche Bank’s last reported consolidated capital ratios, as of September 30, 2024, were significantly above the then prevailing as well as the upcoming supervisory requirements for 2025.
These requirements set the levels below which Deutsche Bank would be required to calculate a Maximum Distributable Amount (MDA). The MDA is used to determine restrictions on distributions, notably dividends on common shares, new variable remuneration and coupon payments to holders of Additional Tier 1 instruments.

Such factors include the conditions in the financial markets in Germany, in Europe, in the United States and elsewhere from which we derive a substantial portion of our revenues and in which we hold a substantial portion of our assets, the development of asset prices and market volatility, potential defaults of borrowers or trading counterparties, the implementation of our strategic initiatives, the reliability of our risk management policies, procedures and methods, and other risks referenced in our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
