Despite a recent trading boom, Deutsche Bank boss Christian Sewing will soon have to scrap his 2022 profit target. Since further cost cuts are tricky, reviving a 2019 aborted union with Commerzbank is the logical Plan B, writes LiamWardProud:

The biggest percentage increase was in the investment banking division, where revenue rose by 43% to 2.4 billion euros. Pre-tax profit in that business was 957 million euros. The group’s annualised return on tangible equity for the three-month period was 1.5%, while its common equity Tier 1 ratio was 13.3%.
