Winners Rationale
“Deutsche Bank Private Bank’s focus on the strategic lending Asia franchise and high-stakes execution was evidenced by landmark transactions in 2025, earning it recognition as Highly Commended Private Bank – Credit & Financing,” said Audrey Raj, editor of Asian Private Banker.
“Notable transactions included a privatisation bridge financing for a Singapore-listed real estate company, where Deutsche Bank structured a bilateral loan to support a successful delisting despite weak market sentiment. The bank also showcased its cross-border capabilities with a refinancing mandate for a UK commercial real estate REIT listing on the Singapore Stock Exchange, successfully competing against incumbent UK and regional banks.
“Further highlights included a privatisation financing addressing complex onshore-to-offshore cashflow challenges for an offshore-listed client with Chinese assets, as well as a tailored financing solution for a UHNW family office to support a major acquisition, secured by listed and private shares and underpinned by detailed cashflow, valuation, and exit analysis.
“These examples illustrate Deutsche Bank Private Bank’s ability to deliver innovative, high-stakes lending solutions across the region, making it a deserving winner of Highly Commended Private Bank – Credit & Financing. Congratulations to the team.”
