Baets: Deutsche Bank CEO once requested the withdrawal of the report on "investors may sell off US assets".

US Treasury Secretary Bezent said that Deutsche Bank CEO Christian Sewing had called an analyst within the company to request the deletion of a report on "European investors possibly selling US assets". Bezent said on Wednesday at the World Economic Forum in Davos, "The idea that Europeans would sell US assets originated from an analyst at Deutsche Bank. The CEO of Deutsche Bank called to say that the bank does not believe in this analyst's report." Earlier, George Saravelos, global head of foreign exchange research at Deutsche Bank, said in a report on Sunday that President Trump's trade threats against European governments over the Greenland issue could potentially lead them to reduce their holdings of US assets.
