that laying on the plant we've been planning for quite some time that after achieving stabilisation last year cleaning up the balance sheet i mean costs under control we now want to take the next step maps to align the bank with its strengths and that is what we are pleased to announce today. bank expected $2800000000.00 euro net loss in the 2nd quarter as a result of restructuring charges and a loss for the full year it's frank 1st base torture banks overhaul in 3 decades and comes after the collapse of a planned merger with rival comments bank in that time the lender tried and failed to keep up with wall street's big guns like j.p. morgan chase and goldman sachs where you are now it's time for georgia bank to get its house in order at home. banking and finance professor hunts bit of both of joins us from stuttgart our financial correspondent ali but is in frankfurt outside dodger headquarters or he is this rocking frankfurt. it

surely is it's making its mark on the stock market excuse me i have to fend off a pesky wasp here. and the reaction is definitely positive it's not euphoric because people know that it's not a given that all these promises that christians saving and the supervisory board chairman are making are going to be right in the end and that everything is going to wind up as they say but i think most people agree that the costs are much too high at the door to a bank it has to do something with the size of the staff investment banking. a star in the past reaping tremendous profits but a shadow of its former self and also having all sorts of legal costs that it brought to the bank and i think most people think that this radical approach is the right one coming very late indeed the only keep that was that they missed the bull cough i really thought of us this morning no sympathy for the investment bankers
10:34 am
losing their jobs why i think well there's a lot of sympathy for investors because as human beings but for sure they'll find a job investment banking still alive and kicking around the globe it's only not for deutsche because deutsche always has been kind of outsider in says business investment banking london new york is anglo-saxon style and ok they're both investment bankers anglo-saxon style investment bank us but seemingly as i didn't buy the best ones and these people maybe haven't been very loyal they don't think anyone's going the way we've got one in 5 stops being thrown out it sounds like something systemically wrong with deutsche and and that would be management's fold not their fault. not the bank manager's fault for sure but it's investment bankers fault but i mean there's a force for power within the bank and they took over to some degree as a bank and some of the bad thoughts about lost it's all strength as

a reliable partner to become police in germany and this loss is really big try to regain this position it will take a lot of time a lot of persuasion to get back into this position but it's very valuable because economy is thriving it's a strong economy it's a good bank could live on that. only will that be enough that will deutsche bank stick around. i think that your bank will stick around will it stick around under its own independent leadership that depends on the success of this radical restructuring it's always possible and some people think that it is likely to some point considering the low share price and the financing and the big balance sheet that might be taken over by someone but its role in financing both private customers in especially corporate customers like professor book of just pointed out yes it's lost some ground there but it still is number one in germany and it's needed for many companies so that role i think that your bank will continue to play
