Deutsche Bank, an established German lender, reported a net loss of 1.9 Billion Euros equivalent to 2.05 Billion U.S. Dollars in its fourth quarter. This is seen as a better outcome for the year 2016 which has been a difficult year. Also, compared to a year earlier than 2016 where the net loss was calculated as 6.8 billion euros, the 1.4 figure was significantly lower supported by strong capital and high liquidity ratios. On the other hand, charges tallied as much as 5.8 billion euros for last year with 2.9 billion euros spent for the fourth quarter alone as shown in the earnings report.
