Regulatory framework
Basis of Presentation
Article 431 (1), (2) CRR, 433 CRR and 433a CRRThis Pillar 3 Report provides disclosures for the consolidated Deutsche Bank Group (the Group or the bank) as required by the global regulatory framework for capital and liquidity, which was established by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, also known as Basel 3.
In the European Union (EU), the Basel 3 framework is implemented by the amended versions of Regulation (EU) 575/2013 on prudential requirements for credit institutions (Capital Requirements Regulation or CRR) and the Directive (EU) 2013/36 on access to the activity of credit institutions and the prudential supervision of credit institutions and investment firms (Capital Requirements Directive or CRD). As a single rulebook, the CRR is directly applicable to credit institutions in the European Union and provides the grounds for the determination of regulatory capital requirements, regulatory own funds, leverage and liquidity as well as other relevant requirements. In addition, the CRD was implemented into German law by means of further amendments to the German Banking Act (Kreditwesengesetz or KWG) and the German Solvency Regulation (SolvV) and accompanying regulations. Jointly, these laws and regulations represent the regulatory framework applicable in Germany.
The disclosure requirements are provided in Part Eight of the CRR and in Section 26a of the KWG. Further disclosure guidance has been provided by the European Banking Authority (EBA) in its "Final draft implementing technical standards on public disclosures by institutions of the information referred to in Titles II and III of Part Eight of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013" (EBA ITS). The Group adheres to the frequency of disclosure requirements as per Article 433 and 433a of the CRR and as provided within these EBA Guidelines and includes comparative periods in accordance with the requirements of EBA ITS. Disclosure requirements stemming from the "Draft Implementing Technical Standards amending Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/3172, as regards the disclosures on ESG risks, equity exposures and the aggregate exposure to shadow banking entities", such as shadow banking, will be considered as per the required first publication date given in the Draft ITS.
For those disclosures only required on a semi-annual basis, the comparative period is the prior half-year. Disclosures required on a quarterly basis generally include comparative information for the prior quarter.
Numbers presented throughout this document may not add up precisely to the totals and percentages may not precisely reflect the absolute figures due to rounding. Where applicable comparative information has been aligned to the presentation in the current report.
The information provided in this Pillar 3 Report is unaudited.
Basel 3 and CRR/CRD
The CRR/CRD lays the foundation for the calculation of the minimum regulatory requirements with respect to own funds and eligible liabilities, the liquidity coverage ratio and the net stable funding ratio.
Regulation (EU) 2024/1623 introduces fundamental changes to the CRR that are generally applicable from January 1, 2025 (CRR3). With respect to own funds requirements for credit risk, for example new floors for internal probability of default (PD) and loss given default (LGD) estimates are introduced and the advanced Internal Ratings Based Approach must no longer be applied for large corporates. Hence, for exposures facing large corporates, it is no longer possible to estimate the LGD based on an internal model, but instead a supervisory LGD must be used. Also the Credit Risk Standardized Approach is fundamentally revised, e.g. the treatment of exposures secured by residential or commercial immovable property is changed. For operational risk, the capital requirements can no longer be determined based on an internal model, instead a standardized approach must be applied.
In 2025, the total risk exposure amount was floored at 50% of the risk exposure amounts determined based on the standardized approaches (output floor) and in 2026, this percentage increases to 55%. The output floor gradually increases to 72.5% of the risk exposure amounts determined based on standardized approaches on January 1, 2030.
The amendments for market risk (Fundamental review of the trading book - FRTB) have been delayed by Commission Delegated Regulations (EU) 2024/2795 and 2025/1496 until January 1, 2027. Accordingly, during 2025 and 2026 market risk own funds requirements are determined based on the internal model and standardized approach in the version of Regulation (EU) 575/2013 in force on July 8, 2024. In parallel the FRTB standardized approach is used for the output
floor calculation as well as the reporting obligation. Following the EBA opinions dated February 27, 2023, August 12, 2024 and August 8, 2025 equally the amended FRTB rules on trading book assignment, reclassifications and internal hedges are delayed until January 1, 2027.
There is still uncertainty as to how some of the CRR/CRD rules should be interpreted and there are still related binding Technical Standards for which a final version is not yet available. Thus, the Group will continue to refine assumptions and models in line with evolution of these regulations as well as the industry's understanding and interpretation of the rules. Against this background, current CRR/CRD measures may not be comparable to previous expectations. Also, CRR/CRD measures may not be comparable with similarly labeled measures used by competitors, as their assumptions and estimates may differ from Deutsche Bank's.
MREL and TLAC
Banks in the European Union are required to meet at all times a minimum requirement for own funds and eligible liabilities (MREL) which ensures that banks have sufficient loss absorbing capacity in resolution to avoid recourse to taxpayers' money. Relevant laws are the Single Resolution Mechanism Regulation (SRMR) and the Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive (BRRD) as implemented through the German Recovery and Resolution Act (Sanierungs- und Abwicklungsgesetz, SAG).
In addition, the CRR requires G-SIIs in Europe to have at least the higher of 18% plus the combined buffer requirement of risk weighted assets (RWA) and 6.75% of leverage exposure as total loss absorbing capacity (TLAC).
Instruments which qualify for MREL and TLAC as own funds are Common Equity Tier 1, Additional Tier 1, and Tier 2 along with certain eligible liabilities (mainly plain-vanilla unsecured bonds). Instruments qualifying for TLAC need to be fully subordinated to general creditor claims (e.g., senior non-preferred bonds). While this is not required for MREL, MREL regulations allow the Single Resolution Board (SRB) to also set an additional subordination requirement within the MREL requirements (but separate from TLAC), which allows only subordinated liabilities and own funds to be counted.
MREL is determined by the competent resolution authorities for each supervised bank and its preferred resolution strategy. In the case of Deutsche Bank AG, MREL is determined by the SRB. While there is no statutory minimum level of MREL, the CRR, SRMR, BRRD and delegated regulations set out criteria which the resolution authority must consider when determining the relevant required level of MREL. Guidance is provided through a MREL policy published annually by the SRB. Any binding MREL ratio determined by the SRB is communicated to Deutsche Bank via the German Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin). Deutsche Bank AG received its current total MREL and current subordinated MREL requirement with immediate applicability in the second quarter of 2026.
ICAAP, ILAAP and SREP
The internal capital adequacy assessment process (ICAAP) as stipulated in Pillar 2 of Basel requires banks to identify and assess risks, to apply effective risk management techniques and to maintain adequate capitalization. The Group's internal liquidity adequacy assessment process (ILAAP) aims to ensure that sufficient levels of liquidity are maintained on an ongoing basis by identifying the key liquidity and funding risks to which the Group is exposed, by monitoring and measuring these risks, and by maintaining tools and resources to manage and mitigate these risks.
In accordance with Article 97 CRD supervisors regularly review, as part of the supervisory review and evaluation process (SREP), the arrangements, strategies, processes, and mechanisms implemented by banks and evaluate: (a) risks to which the institution is or might be exposed; (b) risks the institution poses to the financial system; and (c) risks revealed by stress testing.
Disclosure of key metrics
Article 447 (a-g) and Article 438 (b) CRRThe following table presents Deutsche Bank's key regulatory metrics and ratios, together with the related input components, as defined under the applicable CRR and CRD framework. In accordance with the disclosure requirements, the Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR) is disclosed as a 12-month rolling average, whereas all other metrics are based on point-in-time information.

As of June 30, 2026 the subordinated MREL ratio was 8.36% of Total Exposure Measure (TEM) compared to a requirement of 5.79% of TEM. The subordinated MREL surplus is € 35.9 billion.
As of June 30, 2026 the TLAC ratio was 31.86% of TREA compared to a requirement of 23.11% including a 5.11% combined buffer requirement, resulting in a surplus of € 32.1 billion. TLAC was 8.36% of TEM compared to a requirement of 6.75%, which corresponds to a surplus of € 22.5 billion.
Capital
Development and composition of Own Funds
Article 437 (a, d-f) CRRThe own funds capital ratios provided for Deutsche Bank Group are defined by CRR regulations. Deutsche Bank's CET 1 capital as of June 30, 2026, amounted to € 51.1 billion, € 1.8 billion higher compared to December 31, 2025. AT1 capital was € 0.4 billion higher as of June 30, 2026, amounting to € 12.0 billion, compared to € 11.5 billion as of December 31, 2025. Tier 1 capital as of June 30, 2026, amounted to € 63.1 billion compared to € 60.8 billion as of December 31, 2025. Tier 2 capital was € 0.2 billion lower as of June 30, 2026, amounting to € 6.8 billion compared to € 7.1 billion as of December 31, 2025. Total capital as of June 30, 2026, amounted to € 69.9 billion, which was € 2.0 billion higher compared to € 67.8 billion as of December 31, 2025.
The increase of CET 1 capital of € 1.8 billion in the first half of 2026 was mainly due to net profit of € 4.0 billion reduced by regulatory deductions for future shareholder distribution and AT1 coupon payments of € 2.3 billion following requirements of the ECB Decision (EU) (2015/656) on the recognition of interim or year-end profits in CET 1 capital in accordance with the Article 26(2) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 (ECB/2015/4). In addition, CET 1 capital increased due to lower deferred tax assets of € 0.2 billion and a lesser expected loss shortfall deduction by € 0.3 billion. These positive effects were offset by an increase in goodwill and other intangible assets by € 0.2 billion, additional value adjustments by
€ 0.1 billion, as well as newly introduced deduction for securitization positions no longer included in risk-weighted assets of € 0.1 billion.
The increase of Additional Tier 1 capital of € 0.4 billion in the first half of 2026 was due to a new AT 1 issuance of
€ 1.3 billion, reduced by the exercised call option with a total principal amount of € 0.8 billion (GBP 650 million equivalent).
The decrease of Tier 2 capital of € 0.2 billion in the first half of 2026 was due to an exercised call option with a principal amount of € 1.3 billion which partly offset the positive effects of new Tier 2 issuance of € 1.0 billion and foreign exchange impact of € 0.1 billion.
