SailGP Season 4 wrapped with a bang in San Francisco this weekend! We’re extremely proud of the Germany SailGP Team and the journey they’ve been on during their first season. Over 13 events and multiple continents – not to mention the sometimes dramatic weather conditions – the team have showcased their elite sailing skills and impressive teamwork on a global stage. As proud founding partner of the Germany SailGP Team, we’re delighted to have shared their journey and are excited for the team’s next challenge as Season 5 kicks off in Dubai this November. Congratulations also to the Season 4 champions, the Spain SailGP Team. As relative newcomers, the team climbed from last place in Season 3 to win Season 4 – a result that we hope inspires their fellow newcomers. Well done again to the Germany SailGP Team – see you for Season 5!

Dirk Steffen, our Chief Investment Officer EMEA and Global Chief Investment Strategist, discusses recent inflation prints, elaborates on European assets after elections and comments on the Q2 earnings season. Inflation data from the U.S. came in slightly lower than expected which caused quite a bit of rotation. "Everybody's darlings – the megacaps and growth stocks – underperformed significantly while small-cap stocks, represented by the Russell 2000, outperformed," says Dirk. Commenting on elections in Europe, Dirk says: "While politics usually impact capital markets just for a short period of time, this time, these effects could last a bit longer." But there's good news: "Fundamentally speaking, European stock markets look quite attractive as we have a turning economy which provides better growth" adding that "this comes at a price that is at a record low versus U.S. equities." Finally, earnings season just kicked off and although the extended technology industry is still doing very well, growth rates (albeit strong) are coming down. Dirk sees "other sectors coming back and we're getting to a market which is more balanced, leading to an overall healthier market environment."

The Financials sector is the second-best performing sector of the STOXX 600 European stock index this year, with banks ahead of all other subsectors. The turmoil around the French elections, S&P’s downgrade of France in May and Moody’s negative statements about the potentially fragmented French parliament have created doubts about the European investment story – but should we consider current uncertainty as a short-term setback? In our CIO Viewpoint on equities, we consider the European Financials sector’s sound fundamentals and why it has the potential to continue its year-to-date outperformance.

Our Head of Private Bank UK James Whittaker was quoted in the The Financial Times talking about how family offices are navigating geopolitical risks. ➡️ https://lnkd.in/ebC33uU9 At this year’s family office conferences in Singapore and London, our attendees identified geopolitics as the global theme which is impacting their asset allocation decisions the most. Asked where family offices are looking to increase their asset allocation over the next three years, the top three regions were Asia, North America and Europe. Family offices have complex and geographically diverse needs spanning personal, trust and corporate operations. Deutsche Bank has managed the intergenerational wealth of some of the world’s most influential families and served as a trusted partner to wealthy families and their advisers for more than 150 years.

Talking to Yahoo Finance yesterday, our CIO for the Americas Deepak Puri, CFA elaborated on the Federal Reserve's next steps, and shared his take on the upcoming earning season. A September rate cut by the U.S. central bank is widely expected, and the recent nonfarm payrolls report showed signs of cooling in the labour market – something that gives the Fed some room to manoeuvre. But Deepak advised caution: "A rate cut does not necessarily mean that it's going to be a catalyst for another leg up in the equity markets". Regarding corporate results, he said the focus will remain on big technology companies and that markets could get a boost even though earnings expectations are high. "We are in a slower growth environment. And growth is at a premium in a slower growth environment".

At Reuters #Next24 APAC in #Singapore today, our APAC Chief Investment Officer Stefanie Holtze-Jen, CFDS discussed the investment climate in the region, from investment appetite for China to supply chains in Southeast Asia. Speaking with #BreakingViews columnist Anshuman Daga and other panelists, Stefanie talked about her recent visit to Malaysia and investment interest into technology as part of the ASEAN supply chain story. "Currently Southeast Asia economies are benefiting from de-risking of supply chains related to China. For example, Malaysia is profiting from the AI and tech boom, in alignment with China," she said. Stefanie said China’s Third Plenum scheduled for next week will provide a “red carpet” for what the central government plans for economic stimulus. Commenting on foreign risk appetite for China, she said: “Asia UHNW clients can see on the ground the investment opportunity, but European investors aren't convinced. But you can't just circumvent China. You look at 5% growth via a vis Europe and the US, and it’s a solid story.” Stefanie said the Alternatives asset class in Asia is getting a lot of attention. “The ultra-rich are growing their interest, and we are providing access to Alternatives like private equity, and it's definitely picking up.” #wealthmanagement #privatebanking (if invested, your capital may be at risk)

"Spain is absolutely strategic," our Head of Private Bank, Claudio de Sanctis told Spain's leading business news outlet, Expansion. Commenting on banking consolidation, de Sanctis said: "Consolidation is absolutely necessary, not only in Spain, in Europe. The size of European banks is a handicap for our generation and for our children. We need competitive European banks that are able to maintain our European financial independence." This year Deutsche Bank turned 135 in Spain, with a renewed commitment to stay. Under his leadership, the bank made a strategic and commercial shift, opening 18 new office premises in Spain, and a new focus on entrepreneurs and UHNW. "I see an extraordinarily bright future for Deutsche in Spain. We occupy a clever niche. Where we operate in a smaller set of segments, which is affluent customers, wealth management and corporate banking. We have a role to play in these segments. "Spain has become one of the most successful businesses, and one that is at the core of our Private Bank business, from our point of view," he said. Read the full interview (in Spanish)
