Just for the record, Deutsche Bank is a private company with the majority of stocks owned by non-German investors. It is not to be confused with the Bundesbank, which is something like the German FED.
Oh, wasn't aware of that. Not that I'm surprised that is Deutsche Bank. They have a long track record of shady dealings reaching back to, as far as I remember, the 90s.
"Bank of America", anyone? (Just talking how that name could also be misunderstood, I have no idea if they're scumbags or not).
it's a public company, its shares are tradeable on exchanges
"Private" and "public" companies don't have the same meaning in our side of the Pond. In France, "public" = "state-owned" and "private" = "not public".
