Is a Merger between Deutsche Bank and Commerzbank a good idea?
First there were only rumors. Now there is confirmation of actual talks.
Both banks had a difficult time after the financial crisis.
To simplify:
- Commerzbank had a lot of loans to the shipping industry - which sank - and had to be bailed out.
- Deutsche Bank barely survived but had to pay fines and has a notoriously unprofitable investment banking.
Both banks are still licking their wounds - 10 years later.
Commerzbank looks a bit healthier than Deutsche Bank at the moment.
Do you think a merger is beneficial?
- It is beneficial for both
- It is beneficial for Commerzbank
- It is beneficial for Deutsche Bank
- It is healthy for the banking industry
- It is a terrible idea
- I don't care about fiat actors. I only care about crypto.
