German regulator fines Deutsche Bank €8 million in Postbank customer migration

Germany's ​financial regulator BaFin said on Thursday ‌that it had fined Deutsche Bank €8 million ($8.86 million) for shortcomings in ‌migrating customers of its Postbank unit ‌to a shared IT platform.

The watchdog said Deutsche Bank "failed to put ⁠in ​place appropriate ⁠organisational arrangements to deal promptly with the ⁠increased volume of customer complaints ​arising from the migration of customer ⁠data." "Furthermore, the company failed to execute ⁠orders ​for the transfer of securities accounts without delay," it ⁠added.

Deutsche Bank didn't immediately respond to ⁠a ⁠request for comment. ($1 = 0.9027 euros)
