Deutsche Bank said it has reached settlement with US authorities to pay a $3.1 billion civil penalty (and provide $4.1bn in releief to consumers). Removing considerable uncertainty about Deutsche's capital position, one wonders how much this remarkably low-ball settlement had to do with Donald Trump's current loan re-negotiations with the "world's most systemically dangerous bank."

The bulk of the settlement will go the attorneys involved.

Everyone else will get a check for Three dollars and eighty-five cents.

We got one of those checks a few years ago from our mortgage company after they settled some sort of litigation with some government extortion entity.

This administration has stolen so much and passed it around to the people they consider worthy.

Probably to La Raza.or Muz-resettlement programs, that’s how they redistribute money from the banks and fund the conquering of the USA.

The only way a bank can be free of failure risk is to make no loans and be only a money repository.

Deutsche Bank is both the creator of the 99% movement, and the destroyer of Greece-Spain-Portugal.

Yes those nations were socialistic, but fiscally they weren’t as bad as the U.S. under our socialist scumbag in chief. They were mortally wounded by DB, and unable to heal because of the EU.
