Notable Quotes 2
I didn't want to discuss JE/SF's cash position with Steve in the room yesterday, but we can offer materially higher deposit rates (65bps currently) if he holds his cash in DBAG's NY Branch.
As we've previously discussed, DB has a strong appetite to increase deposits directly in the US (as opposed to moving funding from Germany to the US).
