In April, von Moltke expressed optimism that the downturn was hitting a floor. However, the bank booked charges tied to loans for 476 million euros in the second quarter, more than analysts had expected, due to the slower recovery in real estate and two unnamed corporate defaults. The full-year guidance for provision for credit losses was revised to 'slightly above 30 basis points' from a previous range of 25-30 basis points.
Analysts have expressed concern about Deutsche Bank's exposure to commercial real estate, particularly in light of regulatory concerns around leveraged loans. The European Central Bank is pushing German lenders to build up higher reserves against property loan defaults.
