Deutsche Bank broadens funding base with multi-tranche Japanese Yen issuance

Deutsche Bank announced today that it has successfully issued Euro-Yen-denominated bonds of 70 billion Japanese Yen (JPY) in a multi-tranche offering. This issuance follows the bank’s return to the JPY market in 2024 after nine years and reflects ongoing investor interest and market confidence.

By issuing in alternative currencies beyond its standard Euro and US Dollar denominated issuances, Deutsche Bank aims to maintain its presence as a regular issuer in selected markets, to broaden its offering to investors, and to achieve competitive overall funding conditions. 

The proposed multi-tranche structure is designed to match demand from broad range of segments in Japan and internationally, in line with Deutsche Bank’s Global Hausbank strategy to provide flexible and consistent access to capital markets across regions.

Thomas Rueckert, Deutsche Bank’s Head of Issuance Execution, said: “We continue to look for ways to broaden our investor base and we are pleased to return to the Japanese Yen market for a second year in a row, a testament to the strength of the local capital market.”

Deutsche Bank’s capital market issuance serves to strengthen the bank’s capital structure and enables its businesses to support the lasting success and financial security of its clients. This successful issuance also represented an important step in the bank’s 2025 capital market funding plan. With this issue, capital market funding raised in the year to date has reached € 8 billion, compared to a full-year funding plan of € 15-20 billion.

This transaction reaffirms our long-term commitment to the Japanese market and our ability to offer tailored solutions for a wide range of investors. We will remain focused on diversifying our funding base and maintaining a strong presence across key global markets. Tamio Honma, Deutsche Bank’s Chief Country Officer for Japan
