Germany
Deutsche Bank was founded in 1870 in Berlin and is the largest bank in the European Union.
Frankfurt is both the center of Deutsche Bank's German operations and also the headquarters of our global business. With more than 1,500 offices and branches employing more than 31,000 of our 65,000+ employees worldwide, Germany is our largest country operation and the foundation for our global organization.
In Germany, Deutsche Bank is seen as the blueprint for financial services firms. We have won many awards covering multiple aspects of the business from institutional to retail for many client types. For example, DWS, our mutual fund company, has repeatedly been named Standard & Poor's best large mutual fund company in Germany. In 2005 alone we were awarded amongst others; Bank of the Year by Wirtschaftswoche, German M&A House of the Year by Financial News, Best Overall Issuer by Zertifikate Journal, and Deutsche Bank was named one of the top 72 brands in Germany by Superbrands.
Our commitment to Germany, and every country in which we operate, runs far deeper than economics and business. Deutsche Bank acknowledges social responsibility to the global community. In Germany, the Alfred Herrhausen Foundation, Helping People to Help Themselves has been devoted to social issues since 1987. Our Youth-School-Industry project has worked with over 1,800 students at 100 schools to introduce real world business experiences to school children across Germany, Poland, the Czech Republic, and Hungary.
