Deutsche Bank aims to increase its fixed income trading revenues in the Americas by 20% between 2023 and 2027.
Deutsche Bank is aiming to strengthen its fixed income trading business in the Americas as part of a strategy to expand its investment banking operations and revitalize its presence in the region. Ram Nayak, who co-leads Deutsche’s investment bank, stated that the German lender could increase fixed income revenues by 20 percent between 2023 and 2027 by targeting the Americas , considered the most challenging market globally.
Although Deutsche is also focused on developing the advisory side of its investment bank to mitigate the volatility and capital requirements associated with fixed income, debt trading remains its primary revenue generator, accounting for over 80 percent of its investment banking income in 2023. Following a decline to a post-crisis low in 2019, the bank has successfully rebuilt its core trading operations across rates, credit, and emerging markets in recent years, leading to revenue growth in Europe and Asia. Revenue from the fixed income business surged 45 percent between 2019 and 2023 to €8 billion. Nayak, who oversees the fixed income trading operations, explained to the Financial Times that while expansion into the Americas has already yielded positive results, the region presents the most significant growth potential for the business. 'We fixed Asia and we're a top three player. We fixed Europe and we're a top three player. It's America where we're lagging,' he stated. 'Can I see 20 percent growth from 2023 to say 2027? The answer is absolutely, and the biggest driver of that by far will be the Americas.' According to Coalition Greenwich, a data and benchmarking provider, Deutsche Bank ranks among the top three banks in fixed income in Europe and Asia, excluding listed derivatives and clearing, based on internal revenues, product taxonomy, and organizational structure. However, its position in the Americas is currently within the top eight. 'The whole game for me is to take our dominant position in Europe and Asia and replicate it in the US,' Nayak emphasized
