Deutsche Bank (Suisse) SA

Deutsche Bank (Suisse) SA is the Swiss private banking entity of Deutsche Bank Group, operating under Swiss law from Geneva with an office in Zurich, and supervised by FINMA. It focuses on high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth clients, family offices, and select intermediaries, providing discretionary and advisory portfolio management, custody, execution across equities, fixed income, funds, FX and precious metals, access to structured solutions and alternative investments subject to eligibility, and lending that typically includes Lombard facilities and mortgages on a case-by-case basis. The bank applies Swiss FinSA/FinIA client classification and suitability/appropriateness rules, and conducts standard Swiss KYC/AML, tax-compliance checks, and cross-border eligibility screening; service availability depends on client domicile and regulatory constraints. Account opening is selective and usually requires substantial investable assets; minimums are materially higher than retail banking. Pricing is multi-layered, with custody and account fees, discretionary or advisory charges, transaction commissions, FX spreads, and product costs; inducements/retrocessions and conflicts of interest are subject to Swiss disclosure or client waiver requirements. As a member of the Swiss depositor protection scheme esisuisse, eligible deposits are protected up to CHF 100,000 per client per bank; securities held in custody are segregated under Swiss law and are not covered by deposit insurance. The Swiss entity maintains its own capital and liquidity while relying on Deutsche Bank Group infrastructure for research, trading, and product manufacturing, which can entail potential conflicts managed through policy and disclosure. Digital channels support account viewing, reporting, secure messaging, and instruction submission but are oriented to relationship-managed wealth services rather than self-directed trading. Reporting can accommodate multiple jurisdictions and provide Swiss tax statements where applicable. Clients seeking corporate finance or investment banking access generally do so through the group, while the Swiss unit’s core business remains private banking and wealth management.
