How do you modernise the tech stack of a 150-year-old bank?

It’s a challenge many established banks face - modernising the technology their business relies on without disrupting the business itself. Even more so as rapid advances in AI, cloud computing and digital innovation continue to reshape financial services. At Deutsche Bank, we undertook a major transformation of our technology landscape, simplifying systems and accelerating innovation. The person leading that effort has been our outgoing Chief Technology Officer, Bernd Leukert. In this episode, Bernd reflects on Deutsche Bank’s technology transformation journey, from bank systems modernisation to AI in banking, and shares how he thinks innovation will shape the future of financial services. 01:10 – Recent shifts in the tech landscape and the players within it 05:48 – The opportunities Bernd saw when arriving at Deutsche Bank and the story behind our partnership with Google 19:20 – AI in banking: where are we and what comes next, plus what it means for cybersecurity 30:08 – What Bernd is dedicated to in his daily life Our Technology Transformation https://www.db.com/what-we-do/focus-topics/tech/index?language_id=1 Deutsche Bank website http://www.db.com

In this episode of This is Deutsche Bank, James offers a first-hand perspective of that turnaround.
