Which bank sets the gold standard in wholesale banking (i.e., commercial, corporate, and investment banking)?

Deutsche Bank — Success Beyond Success describes the success formula of Deutsche Bank, seen through the lens of 4,039 C-level executives and senior managers from Fortune Global 500 and Forbes Global 2000 companies. The report provides a thorough analysis of Deutsche’s wholesale banking reputation, focusing on six key performance areas: client-centricity, external engagement, competitiveness, leadership and employee quality, innovativeness, and business model efficiency and effectiveness (e.g., Deutsche Bank’s reliability as a business partner, its agility, client responsiveness, and resilience).

Ultimately, a firm’s reputation is alpha and omega — especially in wholesale banking.

This research report presents the ‘Data Only Edition’ for Deutsche Bank — Deutsche Bank’s research results. For those seeking an even deeper understanding of the drivers behind excellence in wholesale banking, seen through the lens of clients, I strongly recommend reviewing the ‘Extended Edition’ or ‘Extended + Edition’ of the Goldman Sachs report, Goldman Sachs — The Blueprint for Leadership.

Ranked first in this extensive, multi-year study, Goldman Sachs received the most nominations, offering valuable insights for every leading bank — financial behemoth or boutique bank. While each bank faces unique challenges, the in-depth analysis of Goldman Sachs’ performance provides invaluable lessons applicable across the industry.
