With more than 92,000 client relationships and assets under management of Euro 182 billion*, Deutsche Bank Private Wealth Management (PWM) is one of the world's leading players in the wealth management space. We are the wealth management market leader in Germany, and our position in other markets continues to strengthen; in particular in Asia, where rapid economic growth is driving strong demand for wealth management solutions. As testament of our success in the region, we were named "Best Private Bank in India" by Euromoney in 2007.

We advise our sophisticated client base in our core competencies of discretionary portfolio management and strategic asset allocation, across all asset classes, including alternative investments. In addition, we cover inheritance, tax and estate planning, art, philanthropic activities, family office solutions and serve financial intermediaries.

PWM Relationship Managers develop and manage relationships with clients, helping them build, protect and grow their financial assets. Clients increasingly demand sophisticated services, similar to those traditionally only available to institutional investors, such as strategic asset allocation, a greater use of alternative investments, an open product architecture with objective investment advice and active risk management.

Our investment and product specialists work in close co-operation with investment specialists, Deutsche Bank's Asset Management division, our investment banking arm, and with external product partners, to identify, create and provide access to some of the world's best and most innovative investment ideas and opportunities. In doing this, we combine the personal touch of an independent private bank with the global power of the Deutsche Bank Group.
