DEUTSCHE BANK AKTIENGESELLSCHAFT (DB) Form 6-K — Oct 28, 2026
Deutsche Bank reported a third-quarter 2026 pre-tax loss of €0.4 billion versus a €2.1 billion profit a year earlier, with a post-tax loss of €0.3 billion and revenues down 31% to €5.3 billion. The swing is accounting-driven: losses on interest-rate portfolio hedges recorded in Corporate & Other (-€3.0 billion revenues) do not qualify for fair value hedge accounting under IASB IFRS, the basis used for U.S. reporting. Under the EU carve-out version used for the bank's own targets, results would differ materially.
