Report: Deutsche Bank plans to increase bonus pool by over 5%, lower than some Wall Street peers.

According to informed sources, Deutsche Bank plans to increase last year's bonus pool by more than 5%, a rate lower than some of its Wall Street counterparts. This figure is an average, and specific increases may vary depending on performance. This upward adjustment will leave Deutsche Bank behind several of Wall Street's largest investment banking peers. Given the strong performance in the matching and trading businesses, JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, and Bank of America have all increased their bonus pools for bankers and traders by at least 10%.
