== History ==

Deutsche Bank was founded on '''March 10, 1870''', in [[Berlin]] as a joint-stock bank for foreign trade. Its founders sought to reduce German dependence on British financial institutions and to facilitate trade between Germany and overseas markets.<ref>Deutsche Bank Historical Institute, ''When and by whom was Deutsche Bank founded?'', https://www.db.com/who-we-are/history/index</ref>

The bank rapidly expanded internationally, opening branches in [[Shanghai]] and [[Yokohama]] in 1872 and [[London]] in 1873.<ref>Historical Association of Deutsche Bank, ''Locations'', https://www.bankgeschichte.de/locations/</ref>

Following the [[Second World War]], Deutsche Bank was reorganized and later re-established as a unified institution headquartered in Frankfurt am Main. During the late twentieth century it expanded significantly through international acquisitions and investment banking activities.<ref>Deutsche Bank, ''History of Deutsche Bank'', https://www.db.com/who-we-are/history/history-of-deutsche-bank</ref>

== International Finance ==

Deutsche Bank has played a major role in international capital markets, corporate finance, sovereign lending, foreign exchange markets, and global securities trading. The institution operates in Europe, the Americas, Asia, and other major financial centres throughout the world.<ref>Deutsche Bank, ''History of Deutsche Bank'', https://www.db.com/who-we-are/history/history-of-deutsche-bank</ref>

The bank has historically maintained close involvement in international commerce and trade finance, reflecting the purpose stated by its founders in 1870.<ref>Deutsche Bank Historical Institute, ''When and by whom was Deutsche Bank founded?'', https://www.db.com/who-we-are/history/index</ref>

== World Trade Center ==

Prior to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, Deutsche Bank occupied offices in Four World Trade Center. The bank also owned the Deutsche Bank Building at 130 Liberty Street, adjacent to the World Trade Center complex, following its acquisition of [[Bankers Trust]] in 1998.<ref>Lists of Tenants in the World Trade Center (1973–2001).</ref>
