    Description

    The price of Deutsche Bank share on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange amounted to 12.34 euros at the end of 2023. This was an increase compared to the previous year. Deutsche Bank's share price was the highest in 2006, at 88.41 euros, before the Financial Crisis. The lowest year close was observed in 2019, at 6.92 euros.
    Deutsche Bank finances Deutsche Bank has closed many of its branches worldwide. This signals that it is trying to decrease its costs. Examining its quarterly net income or loss suggests that the bank faced a difficult business climate in the last several years, although it managed to increase its net income in 2022. The period from 2018 to 2020 was a particularly hard period for the shareholders as well, since the bank was unable to pay dividends. More on the European banking industry Deutsche Bank is among the leading banks in Europe by assets. While struggling to recover from the Financial Crisis of 2008, the continent was hit by the Eurozone Crisis, spurned by high national debt in several countries in southern Europe. Deutsche Bank and other European banks were, and remain, exposed to investments that were less secure than expected.

    Description

    Lehman Brothers, the fourth largest investment bank on Wall Street, declared bankruptcy on the 15th of September 2008, becoming the largest bankruptcy in U.S. history. The investment house, which was founded in the mid-19th century, had become heavily involved in the U.S. housing bubble in the early 2000s, with its large holdings of toxic mortgage-backed securities (MBS) ultimately causing the bank's downfall. The bank had expanded rapidly following the repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act in 1999, which meant that investment banks could also engage in commercial banking activities. Lehman vertically integrated their mortgage business, buying smaller commercial enterprises that originated housing loans, which allowed the bank to expand its MBS holdings. The downfall of Lehman and the crash of '08 As the U.S. housing market began to slow down in 2006, the default rate on housing loans began to spike, triggering losses for Lehman from their MBS portfolio. Lehman's main competitor in mortgage financing, Bear Stearns, was bought by J.P. Morgan Chase in order to prevent bankruptcy in March 2008, leading investors and lenders to become increasingly concerned about the bank's financial health. As the bank relied on short-term funding on money markets in order to meet its obligations, the news of its huge losses in the third-quarter of 2008 further prevented it from funding itself on financial markets. By September, it was clear that without external assistance, the bank would fail. As its losses from credit default swaps mounted due to the deepening crash in the housing market, Lehman was forced to declare bankruptcy on September 15, as no buyer could be found to save the bank. The collapse of Lehman triggered panic in global financial markets, forcing the U.S. government to step in and bail-out the insurance giant AIG the next day on September 16. The effects of this financial crisis hit the non-financial economy hard, causing a global recession in 2009.
