Cerberus holds 3% of Deutsche Bank shares and 5% of Commerzbank shares, and was previously opposed to a merger, German newspaper Handelsblatt reported on Tuesday. Deutsche Bank has more than 20-million personal and business customers, and Commerzbank around 18-million. A merger between the two banks has appeared more likely since last month when two people with the knowledge of the matter said time was running out for Deutsche Bank to turn itself around on its own. But some major shareholders see no need for a deal.
