Revenues at Deutsche Bank’s private wealth
management (PWM) division dropped 17% in the fourth quarter of last
year when compared to the fourth quarter of 2010.
Deutsche Bank said the lower revenues were due
to negative market conditions and low client activities.
However for the full year, PWM revenues
increased by €50m ($67m) to €2bn.
PWM’s pre-tax income also dropped 50% in the
three months to 31 December but, on a full-year basis, grew
substantially to €321m, up from a €57m loss in 2010.
This helped Deutsche’s asset and wealth
management division (AWM), which includes the PWM unit, to report
pre-tax income of €767m in 2011.

By GlobalDataPWM AuM drops €7bn in
2011
The bank’s AWM arm had targeted pre-tax income
of €1bn in 2011, but abandoned it in October having achieved only
€400m for the first two quarters.
During the fourth quarter 2011, invested
assets in PWM increased by €5bn, mainly driven by foreign currency
movements, Deutsche Bank said.
From a full-year perspective, PWM’s invested
assets dropped €7bn. The decline in PWM included an impact of €13bn
due to market depreciation, partly offset by €4bn in net new
assets, mainly in Asia and Germany.
The cost-income ratio for Deutsche’s AWM
division dropped 15% in 2011 when compared to 2010.
