UniCredit 's CEO Andrea Orcel revealed his hand this week as the Italian lender built a 9% stake in Commerzbank — and a takeover bid for the German rival could still be in the cards. UniCredit faces a number of hurdles before increasing its stake after filing a request to "potentially exceed 9.9% of Commerzbank if and when necessary." Commerzbank shares soared on Wednesday when news of UniCredit's position was announced, and compounded gains on Thursday following speculation of an imminent takeover. Whispers cooled in January, however, when Deutsche Bank CEO Christian Sewing said that merger and acquisition activity was not a priority for the group at the time. A UniCredit takeover of Commerzbank would emerge as a rare, if long-awaited, instance of consolidation among Europe's banking titans.

Christian Sewing, Chief Executive Officer of Deutsche Bank, has acknowledged that a recession in Germany is inevitable, and urged leaders to accelerate its decoupling from China. Denis Balibouse | ReutersDeutsche Bank CEO Christian Sewing on Thursday said that merger and acquisition activity is not a priority for his group, as speculation resurfaces over the future of domestic rival Commerzbank . The state still has a 15% stake in Commerzbank, but Reuters reported earlier this week that Finance Minister Christian Lindner is open to disposing of it. The merger of Germany's two biggest banks would create a combined entity with around $2 trillion in assets, although Deutsche Bank's low valuation could complicate any such move. The bank trades at around 12 euros per share, a fraction of its book value, and a significant portion of assets would need to be marked down.

REUTERS/Selena Li/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsLONDON, Nov 29 (Reuters) - The European Union should consider scrapping a cap on banker bonuses to remain competitive with other financial centres, Deutsche Bank CEO Christian Sewing said on Wednesday. Sewing told a Financial Times event in London that the bloc should take account of other jurisdictions that are ditching similar caps - including Britain - and consider replicating the reform, providing it did not revive a culture of excessive risk taking.

MARRAKECH, Oct 13 (Reuters) - European Central Bank policymakers are planning a springtime push to cut interest payments made to commercial banks, in part to recoup some of the costs associated with a decade worth of stimulus, sources familiar with discussions said. That would mean overall interest payments to lenders - which still earn the ECB deposit rate, currently 4%, on other excess cash parked with the central bank - would be reduced further. But the ECB rejected the proposal in July, partly on resistance from its Executive Board, the sources said. The board's key argument is that excess liquidity is distributed unevenly across the euro zone and raising the ratio would put an excessive burden on smaller banks with a larger portion of deposits. Deutsche Bank CEO Christian Sewing argued that the change would add to banks' financial burdens and restrict their lending options.

"We are not the sick man of Europe," Sewing said in his keynote address at the Handelsblatt Banken Summit 2023 on Wednesday, "but it is also true that there are structural weaknesses that hold back our economy and prevent it from developing its great potential." "We will become the sick man of Europe if we do not address these structural issues now," he added. The Deutsche Bank CEO said that the biggest task lies with banks, whose roles are changing in the current macroeconomic climate. This is a great responsibility, but also a great opportunity to create new trust," Sewing said.

BlackRock CEO Larry Fink said the firm is spending a lot of time analyzing artificial intelligence. The firm's experts believe AI will increase productivity by 30%, Fink said on Wednesday. A BlackRock team called AI Labs that works on natural language processing and other areas. If AI can meaningfully increase productivity, Fink said, then "you don't have to own just these AI companies.

ZURICH, March 17 (Reuters) - Deutsche Bank (DBKGn.DE) paid Chief Executive Christian Sewing 8.9 million euros ($9.49 million) in 2022, up slightly from 8.8 million euros a year earlier, the bank disclosed on Friday, rewarding him for a third consecutive year of profit and hitting key milestones in the lender's restructuring. The bonus pool for the entire bank was 2.1 billion euros, basically flat from a year earlier. Sewing led the bank through a 9-billion-euro, four-year turnaround plan for what is one of the world's most systemically important banks after years of losses. For 2023, the bank forecast a slight increase in revenues to between 28 billion euros and 29 billion euros, according to its annual report on Friday. At the investment bank, revenues will be flat, it forecast.
BERLIN, Nov 24 (Reuters) - Deutsche Bank Chief Executive Christian Sewing appealed for caution regarding German government relief packages and said the country should not come to rely on extending aid measures, speaking at an economic conference on Thursday. "At some point, even Germany will run out of ways of explaining this to the capital market in such a way that the capital market believes in Germany's debt capacity," Sewing said at the event, hosted by the Sueddeutsche Zeitung newspaper. In his view, the key issue for German companies was whether they could access secure and competitive energy supply.

Deutsche Bank has long warned that Europe needs strong banks to counteract U.S. and Chinese competitors, but Friday's speech took on a greater sense of urgency. "We urgently need to change course here if we do not want to rely primarily on foreign banks to finance Europe's future," Sewing said at a banking conference. Sewing blamed European regulators for a heavy hand, the latest criticism by top bankers of its supervisors. "It becomes ever clearer that the current regulatory framework does little to strengthen European banks," he said. European Central Bank (ECB) President Christine Lagarde, speaking at the same conference, warned of "undermining" regulation.

91% of US CEOs anticipate there will be recession in the next 12 months, according to a KPMG survey. The Fed will further raise interest rates to combat inflation, which will increase costs for businesses. Those interest rates also mean that credit card and loan debt will get more expensive. Musk told investors in October that "North America is in pretty good health," but pushed back on the Fed's decision to keep raising interest rates. Citadel CEO Ken Griffin"Everybody likes to forecast recessions, and there will be one," Citadel's billionaire CEO told CNBC in late September, noting that he thinks inflation has peaked.
