Amid merger with Commerzbank Deutsche Bank board members gets bonus after 4 years

Deutsche Bank's management board members were awarded their first bonuses in four years, a disclosure on Friday showed, risking the ire of unions who fear that a merger with Commerzbank will result in massive layoffs.

The management board received total pay, including bonuses, of 55.7 million euros ($63.39 million) in 2018, up from 29.8 million euros a year earlier, Deutsche Bank said in its annual report.
