The reconciliation of average active equity, underlying measures and ratios from reported figures is provided on pages 39 and 40 of this report. (1) Including numerator effect of assumed conversions. The effect for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and June 30, 2004 was E (0.01) and E (0.05), respectively. Due to rounding, numbers presented throughout this document may not add up precisely to the totals we provide and percentages may not precisely reflect the absolute figures. DISCUSSION OF RESULTS Deutsche Bank reported income before income taxes of E 1.4 billion after restructuring expenses of E 116 million, up by 22% versus the second quarter 2004. For the first half year, income before income taxes rose 17% to E 3.2 billion after restructuring expenses of E 284 million. Net income rose by 44% to E 947 million versus the second quarter 2004, and by 28% to E 2.1 billion for the first half year. Pre-tax return on average active equity before restructuring expenses was 25% for the quarter, and 29% for the first half year. Diluted earnings per share for the quarter rose by 64% to E 1.90, and by 43% to E 4.06 for the half year. GROUP HIGHLIGHTS Net revenues for the second quarter were E 5.9 billion, up by 9% compared to E 5.4 billion in the second quarter 2004. Origination and Advisory revenues were up by 17%. Revenues in Debt Sales & Trading were in line with last year's second quarter levels, while revenues in Equity Sales & Trading grew 12% over the second quarter 2004. Net revenues in Private Clients and Asset Management (PCAM) grew by 4% over the second quarter 2004. For the first half year, Group net revenues grew by 8% to E 12.5 billion. Provision for credit losses, which include provisions for both loan losses and off-balance sheet exposures (the latter reported in noninterest expenses), was E 80 million in the second quarter, essentially unchanged from the prior year period and from the first quarter 2005. For the first half, provision for credit losses fell by 28% versus the first half of 2004. Problem loans further declined to E 4.6 billion, from E 4.8 billion in the first quarter 2005, and the ratio of problem loans to loans fell to 3.2%, from 3.3% in the first quarter 2005. This represents the lowest level of problem loans for five years and reflects strong loan book quality and a favourable credit environment. Noninterest expenses for the quarter were E 4.4 billion, compared to E 4.1 billion in the second quarter 2004. In the current quarter, noninterest expenses included restructuring expenses of E 116 million. For the first half, noninterest expenses were E 9.1 billion, compared to E 8.5 billion in the first half of 2004, after restructuring expenses of E 284 million. The operating cost base, which excludes restructuring charges and other items, was E 4.3 billion for the quarter, up by 4% versus the second quarter 2004 but down 6% from the first quarter 2005. For the first half year, the operating cost base rose by 3% to E 8.8 billion. Performance-related compensation costs rose in the second quarter and first half compared to the same periods in 2004, reflecting improved results. Second quarter compensation costs nevertheless declined from the first quarter 2005. Non-compensation operating costs for the second quarter 2005 were essentially unchanged compared to the second quarter 2004, and for the first half year were down 2%. 1 Income before income taxes was E 1.4 billion, after restructuring expenses of E 116 million, up by 22% compared to E 1.2 billion in the second quarter 2004. For the first half year, income before income taxes was up 17% to E 3.2 billion, after restructuring expenses of E 284 million, compared to E 2.7 billion in the first half of 2004. Pre-tax return on average active equity was 23% in the second quarter. The negative impact of restructuring expenses on this ratio was 2 percentage points. For the first half 2005, pre-tax return on average active equity was 27% after a negative impact from restructuring expenses of 2 percentage points. Net income for the quarter was E 947 million, up by 44% compared to E 656 million in the second quarter 2004. For the first half, net income rose by 28% to E 2.1 billion, compared to E 1.6 billion in the first half of 2004. The effective tax rate for the second quarter was 33%, compared to the 36% in the first quarter, excluding the tax reversal effect. The reduction of the tax rate was primarily caused by the release of tax contingency reserves due to resolution and restructuring of some of the bank's tax positions. Excluding the tax reversal effect, the effective tax rate for the first half of 2005 was 35%. Diluted earnings per share were E 1.90 for the second quarter, up by 64% compared to E 1.16 in the second quarter 2004. For the half year, diluted earnings per share rose by 43% to E 4.06, compared to E 2.83 in the first half of 2004. Tier 1 capital ratio was 9.1% at the end of the second quarter, above the bank's target range of 8%-9%. Average active equity in the quarter reflected an increased deduction for our planning of a higher 2005 dividend accrual. Additionally, Deutsche Bank announced the launch of a fourth share buyback program. The Business Realignment Program progressed on schedule during the quarter. Organizational alignments are largely completed and revenue synergies are on or ahead of projections. The implementation of measures related to cost savings remains on schedule. Restructuring expenses connected to the Program, since its launch in the fourth quarter 2004, reached a cumulative total of E 684 million by the end of the second quarter 2005. Restructuring expenses during the first half of 2005 are below original forecasts, partly reflecting lower-than-expected severance costs due to voluntary leavers in the affected areas. The original forecasts for cost savings and costs to achieve remain in place. BUSINESS SEGMENT REVIEW CORPORATE AND INVESTMENT BANK GROUP DIVISION The Corporate and Investment Bank Group Division (CIB) reported underlying pre-tax profit of E 855 million in the current quarter, an increase of E 93 million, or 12%, from the same period last year. Income before income taxes, which additionally reflected restructuring charges of E 47 million in the second quarter 2005 and net gains of E 6 million from the sale of businesses/subsidiaries in the second quarter 2004, increased from E 769 million to E 808 million. Revenues of E 3.6 billion in the second quarter 2005 grew by 8% from the same period in 2004 despite substantially more challenging market conditions. Our performance in Sales and Trading (Debt and other products) was sustained at the strong level of last year's second quarter. For both the second quarter and the first half 2005, we ranked #1 globally in Sales and Trading by revenues. Origination and Advisory revenues increased, reflecting greater activity in equity underwriting and M&A, with the bank further improving its competitive position as measured by its share of the global fee pool, and in European and U.S. league tables. 2 Revenues of E 1.6 billion in Sales and Trading (Debt and other products) in the second quarter 2005 were in line with the strong level of the second quarter 2004. We maintained our global No. 1 position in revenues from such products. The bank's Credit Derivatives and Collateralized Debt Obligations (CDO) businesses proved resilient in the face of exceptionally challenging market conditions that ensued following the major rating agencies' decisions to remove investment-grade debt ratings from two of the world's largest auto company borrowers. Earnings in Commodities and Emerging Markets were up sharply compared to the second quarter 2004 while revenues in the interest rate trading businesses were down marginally. Our leading position in "market access" products was recognized by Euromoney magazine which voted Deutsche Bank the World's Best Foreign Exchange House for the second year running. Our commitment to high-value structured products was also re-affirmed, with Euromoney naming Deutsche Bank as the World's Best Investment-Grade Bond House and the Best Bank at Risk Management in both North America and Latin America. Sales and Trading (Equity) generated revenues of E 602 million in the second quarter 2005. Overall performance in proprietary trading improved compared to the second quarter 2004 although convertibles continued to underperform owing to extremely challenging market conditions. In the second quarter 2005 we continued to reduce our risk in equities proprietary trading, and to spin off further trading strategies into third-party funds. Global Prime Services had a strong quarter relative to the prior year period, mainly due to healthy client activity in Structured Equity Finance. Earnings in cash equities declined from those in the second quarter 2004 due to low market volumes and a highly competitive environment in program trading. In addition the quarter was favourably impacted by a E 65 million release in respect of a previously established operational risk reserve which is no longer required. Origination and Advisory reported revenues of E 548 million in the second quarter of 2005, an increase of E 78 million, or 17% from the same period last year as we were able to increase our share of the global investment banking fee pool, notably in the U.S. In the first half of 2005, we further improved our competitive position and now rank fourth globally by share of fee pool, as measured by Dealogic. The debt markets retreated slightly in the second quarter, with global high-yield corporate debt issuance being significantly weaker than a year ago. Origination (Debt) revenues, however, advanced slightly reflecting our continued strong position in both investment-grade and high-yield debt. In addition, we were named by Euromoney magazine as Best Debt House in Western Europe. Origination (Equity) revenues increased compared to the same period last year reflecting higher levels of activity in the European issuance markets. Advisory revenues also increased from last year, with M&A volumes continuing to rise, especially in the U.S. and Asia Pacific. In addition, we strengthened our pipeline by winning advisory roles in landmark transactions in the second quarter 2005, including the GBP 9.4 billion proposed acquisition of Allied Domecq by Pernod-Ricard, and, also with a financing role, the E 17.2 billion Wind Telecomunicazioni SpA transaction, the second largest leveraged buyout ever and the largest in Europe. 3 Loan Products' revenues of E 312 million for the second quarter 2005 increased 20% compared to the same period last year. Mark-to-market valuation changes on our credit risk hedge positions more than offset a reduction in net interest income as a result of a reduction in the loan book driven by disciplined credit allocation and lower levels of demand. Revenues from Transaction Services were E 478 million in the second quarter 2005, an increase of E 20 million compared to the same period in 2004. The increase was mainly driven by Trust & Securities Services as a result of a strong performance by the Structured Finance Services business and improvements in Cash Management Corporates business. CIB's provision for credit losses for the second quarter of 2005 was E 3 million, similar to the second quarter 2004. This low level of provision reflects the quality of our corporate loan book and further releases from workouts. For the second quarter of 2005 CIB's operating cost base was E 2.7 billion, a 7% increase from the comparable period last year, largely reflecting the impact of performance-related compensation in line with the improved results. Noninterest expenses (excluding provision for off-balance sheet positions), which included a restructuring charge of E 47 million related to the Business Realignment Program, were E 2.7 billion in the second quarter 2005 and E 2.5 billion in the second quarter 2004. PRIVATE CLIENTS AND ASSET MANAGEMENT GROUP DIVISION Underlying pre-tax profit in Private Clients and Asset Management (PCAM) was E 370 million in the second quarter 2005 compared to E 380 million in the same period last year. Income before income taxes, which includes restructuring charges of E 69 million in the second quarter 2005, was E 301 million compared to E 355 million in the second quarter 2004, which included a loss of E 25 million representing Private & Business Clients' (PBC) share in the sale of a subsidiary. PCAM's invested assets increased by E 36 billion to E 908 billion in the second quarter 2005, with favourable currency movements contributing E 23 billion, and market appreciation accounting for E 21 billion, partly offset by E 10 billion net outflows. Private Wealth Management (PWM) captured net new assets of E 2 billion, bringing net new money in the first half to E 4 billion. This development reflects the continued success of our integrated service offering. Asset Management (AM) saw net outflows of E 12 billion, mainly in the U.K., the Americas and Asia, partly offset by net new money inflows of E 2 billion in Continental Europe. Net outflows in Asia resulted in part from mandates from Asian clients managed out of the U.K. In response to strong trends in the Asian market, AM continues to re-focus its product strategy toward higher-value, alternative products in the region. Asset and Wealth Management (AWM) recorded underlying pre-tax profit of E 124 million in the second quarter 2005, a decrease of E 12 million, or 9%, from last year's second quarter. Income before income taxes, which includes restructuring charges of E 54 million in the second quarter 2005, was E 70 million compared to E 136 million in the prior year period. This reflects the thorough reorganization underway in the Asset Management business. 4 Net revenues in AWM advanced slightly from the second quarter 2004. Private Wealth Management recorded strong year-on-year revenue growth, adjusting for a one-time gain in the prior year quarter. The major positive contributor was an increase of E 35 million in revenues from brokerage products. Most of the growth was attributable to strong customer demand for high value-added products. In AM, revenues from portfolio/fund management increased by E 30 million due to continued strength in Germany and Continental Europe and strong levels of performance fees, particularly in alternative investments. Partially offsetting these factors was a decline of E 49 million in revenues from other products, which largely reflects a gain in the prior year period from the sale of collateral obtained on a defaulted loan. AWM's operating cost base was E 26 million higher than in the second quarter 2004, mainly reflecting higher expenses related to real estate transactions and legal provisions. Noninterest expenses increased by E 80 million in the quarter, including the aforementioned restructuring charges of E 54 million. Shortly after the end of the second quarter 2005, we announced an agreement to dispose of parts of our traditional AM business in the U.K., as well as the Philadelphia-based Active Fixed Income business. However, AM's U.K.-based Hedge Fund and Real Estate businesses and its Philadelphia-based High-Yield business remain a key part of our strategy to grow our business in higher-value products, and are not included in the sale. Private & Business Clients (PBC) recorded underlying pre-tax profit of E 246 million in the second quarter 2005, in line with the strong results of last year's second quarter. This strong profitability was maintained, despite simultaneous and continued investment in our platform, thanks to solid revenue growth and volume growth in key products. Income before income taxes, which includes restructuring charges of E 15 million in the second quarter 2005 and a loss of E 25 million from the sale of a subsidiary in the second quarter 2004, increased to E 231 million from E 219 million last year. Net revenues increased by E 65 million compared to last year's second quarter. Revenues from portfolio/fund management grew by E 7 million year-on-year, while revenues from brokerage products improved by E 26 million compared to the second quarter 2004 driven by ongoing successful product placements. Revenues from payments, account & remaining financial services, including insurance brokerage, were lower year-on-year, with sales of insurance products declining from the very strong levels in 2004, which were driven by changes in tax legislation in Germany. PBC also achieved volume growth in lending and deposit products. Revenues from other products were up by E 61 million, due to higher revenues from PBC's re-financing and interest risk management activities as well as to the aforementioned loss from the sale of a subsidiary in last year's second quarter. Provision for credit losses of E 73 million was E 7 million higher than in the second quarter 2004, partly due to increased loan volume as we pursue our strategy of growth in consumer lending. The operating cost base increased by E 32 million compared to the second quarter 2004 reflecting investments in the growth and expansion of our platform both in and outside Germany, which entails higher information technology and marketing expenses. Noninterest expenses were E 47 million higher due to the aforementioned increase in the operating cost base plus E 15 million of restructuring expenses. 5 CORPORATE INVESTMENTS GROUP DIVISION Corporate Investments (CI) reported an underlying pre-tax profit of E 144 million in the second quarter 2005, an increase of E 16 million compared to E 128 million in the second quarter 2004. Underlying revenues were E 200 million in the second quarter of 2005 compared to E 224 million in the second quarter of 2004. Both quarters included dividend income of approximately E 200 million from the bank's industrial holdings portfolio. CI's income before income taxes was E 202 million in the second quarter 2005 and E 179 million in the second quarter 2004. These results included several items that are excluded from underlying revenues. The 2005 amount included payments of E 39 million received from insurance companies to cover losses related to our 130 Liberty Street building and net gains from equity method and other investments of E 18 million while the 2004 amount included net gains of E 100 million from the sale of industrial holdings, net losses of E 57 million from equity method and other investments, and a gain of E 8 million on businesses sold. CI's noninterest expenses were E 52 million in the second quarter 2005, a decrease of E 36 million compared to E 88 million in the second quarter 2004. This decrease was mainly related to the cost of eliminating excess space resulting from headcount reductions and the sale of businesses, which amounted to E 39 million in the second quarter of 2004. The book value of CI's "alternative assets" decreased by 35% to E 1.5 billion at June 30, 2005 from E 2.3 billion at the end of the second quarter of 2004, reflecting our strategy to de-risk the bank. CONSOLIDATION & ADJUSTMENTS Consolidation & Adjustments includes adjustments for differences between accounting methods used for management reporting and U.S. GAAP, as well as adjustments related to activities that are outside the responsibility of the business segments ("Corporate Items"). In Consolidation & Adjustments, income before income taxes was E 103 million compared to a loss before income taxes of E 142 million in the second quarter 2004. The current quarter included positive adjustments for differences in accounting methods for economically-hedged debt issuances and short-term funding positions, as well as for own shares. Such adjustments were negative in last year's second quarter. Additionally, results from corporate items positively impacted Consolidation & Adjustments in the current quarter. 6 SHARE BUYBACK PROGRAM The Board of Managing Directors decided to launch with immediate effect a new share buyback program under the terms of the authorization granted at the Annual General Meeting on May 18, 2005. Within this new program, Deutsche Bank may buy back up to 10% of shares issued at the time of the Annual General Meeting, i.e., up to 54,832,129 shares, by October 31, 2006; reserving the right to suspend the program in favour of strategic growth initiatives. As with previous programs, buybacks will be executed through direct purchases on XETRA and potentially through the use of derivatives. The bank plans to use repurchased shares to reduce share capital and to support future equity-based compensation programs. The bank reserves the option to also use the repurchased shares for other purposes in accordance with the authorization granted at the Annual General Meeting. The bank will regularly publish information on the progress of the buyback program. Details can be viewed on the Investor Relations website at www.deutsche-bank.com/ir. 7 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Supervisory Board of Deutsche Bank Aktiengesellschaft We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Deutsche Bank Aktiengesellschaft and subsidiaries (Deutsche Bank Group) as of June 30, 2005, and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, and the related statements of changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004. These condensed consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of Deutsche Bank Group's management. We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for them to be in conformity with U. S. generally accepted accounting principles.

13 BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2005 and 2004 and for the three and six months then ended are unaudited and include the accounts of Deutsche Bank AG and its subsidiaries (collectively, the Deutsche Bank Group or the Company). In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows have been reflected. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. The results reported in these financial statements, which include supplementary information, should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year. The financial statements included in this Interim Report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company's 2004 Financial Report and Form 20-F. Certain financial statement information that is normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP has been condensed or omitted. Following is supplementary information on the impact of changes in accounting principles, segment information, supplementary information on the income statement, the balance sheet, other financial information and other information. 14 IMPACT OF CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES EITF 05-5 In June 2005, the FASB ratified the consensus reached in EITF Issue No. 05-5, "Accounting for Early Retirement or Postemployment Programs with Specific Features (Such As Terms Specified in Altersteilzeit Early Retirement Arrangements)" ("EITF 05-5"). EITF 05-5 addresses the timing of recognition of salaries, bonuses and additional pension contributions associated with certain early retirement arrangements typical in Germany (as well as similar programs). The EITF also specifies the accounting for government subsidies related to these arrangements. EITF 05-5 is effective in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The adoption of EITF 05-5 is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. SFAS 154 In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, "Accounting Changes and Error Corrections - A Replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3" ("SFAS 154"). SFAS 154 replaces APB Opinion No. 20, "Accounting Changes" ("APB 20") and FASB Statement No. 3, "Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements," and changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. APB 20 previously required that most voluntary changes in accounting principle be recognized by including in net income of the period of the change the cumulative effect of changing to the new accounting principle. SFAS 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods' financial statements for voluntary changes in accounting principle. SFAS 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The impact of SFAS 154 will depend on the accounting change, if any, in a future period. EITF 03-1, FSP EITF 03-1-1 AND FSP FAS 115-1 In March 2004, the FASB ratified the consensus reached in EITF Issue No. 03-1, "The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments" ("EITF 03-1"). The decisions establish a common approach to evaluating other-than-temporary impairment for equity securities accounted for at cost, and debt and equity securities available for sale. In September 2004, the FASB issued a final FASB Staff Position, No. EITF 03-1-1 ("FSP EITF 03-1-1"), which delayed the effective date for the measurement and recognition guidance included in EITF 03-1. The disclosure requirements under EITF 03-1 were effective beginning December 31, 2004. In June 2005, the FASB decided not to provide additional guidance on the meaning of other-than-temporary impairment, but directed its staff to issue a final FSP, to be titled FSP FAS 115-1. FSP FAS 115-1, "The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments," will replace guidance set forth in EITF 03-1 with references to existing other-than-temporary impairment guidance and will clarify that an investor should recognize an impairment loss no later than when the impairment is deemed other than temporary, even if a decision to sell has not been made. The delay of the effective date for the measurement and recognition guidance included in EITF 03-1 will be superseded with the final issuance of FSP FAS 115-1, which will be effective for other-than-temporary impairment analysis conducted in periods beginning after September 15, 2005. The adoption of FSP FAS 115-1, once it is finalized by the FASB, is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. 15 FSP 109-2 In December 2004, the FASB issued Staff Position No. 109-2, "Accounting and Disclosure Guidance for the Foreign Earnings Repatriation Provision within the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004" ("FSP 109-2"). The Act, which was signed into law in the U.S. on October 22, 2004, provides for, among other things, a reduced rate of U.S. tax on dividends received from foreign subsidiaries of U.S. taxpayers. FSP 109-2 provides additional time beyond the financial reporting period of the enactment to evaluate the effects of this provision of the Act for purposes of applying SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." We estimate that approximately U.S.$ 500 million may be eligible for repatriation under this provision. We are evaluating the effect of such a repatriation but do not expect that this provision will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. SFAS 123 (REVISED 2004) In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment" ("SFAS 123(R)"). SFAS 123(R) replaces SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123"), and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees". The new standard requires companies to recognize compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions in their financial statements. That cost is to be measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. Starting January 1, 2003, we accounted for our share-based compensation awards under the fair value method prescribed under SFAS 123. The method was applied prospectively for all employee awards granted, modified or settled after January 1, 2003. Currently, we use a Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock options granted to employees and expect to continue to use this option valuation model upon the adoption of SFAS 123(R). SFAS 123(R) also includes some changes regarding the timing of expense recognition, the treatment of forfeitures and the re-measurement of liability classified awards at their current fair value. SFAS 123(R) indicates that it is effective for reporting periods beginning after June 15, 2005. In March 2005, the SEC released Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, "Share-Based Payment "("SAB 107"), which provides interpretive guidance related to the interaction between SFAS 123(R) and certain SEC rules and regulations. It also provides the SEC staff's views regarding valuation of share-based payment arrangements. In April 2005, the SEC amended the compliance dates for SFAS 123(R), to allow companies to implement the standard at the beginning of their next fiscal year, instead of the next reporting period beginning after June 15, 2005. Management is currently evaluating the transition method to be used and the impact SFAS 123(R) will have on our consolidated financial statements. Management intends to adopt SFAS 123(R) effective January 1, 2006, as permitted by the SEC, and is assessing the impact of SAB 107 on our implementation. SOP 03-3 In December 2003, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement of Position 03-3, "Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer" ("SOP 03-3"). SOP 03-3 addresses the accounting for differences between contractual and expected cash flows for loans or debt securities acquired in a transfer if those differences are attributable, at least in part, to credit quality. The SOP prohibits the creation of an allowance for loan losses in the initial accounting for all loans within its scope. The SOP also limits the income that can be recognized and specifies the accounting for future changes in expected cash flows on the acquired loans or securities. SOP 03-3 is effective for loans or debt securities acquired in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2004. The adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. 16 IFRS EU and German regulations require the Group to adopt International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) for purposes of preparing consolidated financial statements filed with EU and German regulatory authorities beginning no later than fiscal year 2007 (with 2006 comparative amounts presented). Financial statements prepared according to IFRS are accepted in SEC filings provided a reconciliation to certain U.S. GAAP financial statement amounts is disclosed. The adoption of IFRS will not result in any adjustment to U.S. GAAP amounts, however there are a number of differences between the two accounting regimes which will cause earnings and balance sheet amounts under IFRS and U.S. GAAP to differ, perhaps significantly. The special transition rules for this adoption require, with some exceptions, that the IFRS in effect at the reporting date be applied in the opening balance sheet. Because of this, future rule changes could have an impact on the opening IFRS balance sheet and thus the difference between U.S. GAAP and IFRS earnings or balance sheet amounts cannot be predicted at this time. 17 SEGMENT INFORMATION The Group's segment reporting follows the organizational structure as reflected in its internal management reporting systems, which are the basis for assessing the financial performance of the business segments and for allocating resources to the business segments. In the second quarter of 2005 there were no significant changes regarding the organizational structure, management responsibility and the format of segment disclosure. Prior periods have been restated to reflect changes implemented in the first quarter 2005. 18 SEGMENTAL RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Substantially all of the consolidated assets of the variable interest entities act as collateral for related consolidated liabilities. The holders of these liabilities have no recourse to the Group, except to the extent the Group guarantees the value of the mutual fund units that investors purchase. The maximum exposure to loss related to the significant non-consolidated guaranteed value mutual funds results from the above mentioned guarantees. The Group's maximum exposure to loss from the commercial paper programs that it has a significant interest in is equivalent to the contract amount of its liquidity facilities. The liquidity facilities create only limited credit exposure since the Group is not required to provide funding if the assets of the vehicle are in default.

Heinrich von Pierer were elected substitute members of the Risk Committee. LITIGATION WorldCom Litigation. Deutsche Bank AG and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., the Group's U.S. broker-dealer subsidiary ("DBSI"), are defendants in more than 40 actions filed in federal and state courts arising out of alleged material misstatements and omissions in the financial statements of WorldCom Inc. DBSI was a member of the syndicate that underwrote WorldCom's May 2000 and May 2001 bond offerings, which are among the bond offerings at issue in the actions. Deutsche Bank AG, London branch was a member of the syndicate that underwrote the sterling and Euro tranches of the May 2001 bond offering. Plaintiffs are alleged purchasers of these and other WorldCom debt securities. The defendants in the various actions include certain WorldCom directors and officers, WorldCom's auditor and members of the underwriting syndicates for the debt offerings. Plaintiffs allege that the offering documents contained material misstatements and/or omissions regarding WorldCom's financial condition. The claims against DBSI and Deutsche Bank AG are made under federal and state statutes (including securities laws), and under various common law doctrines. The largest of the actions against Deutsche Bank AG and DBSI is a class action litigation in the U.S. District Court in the Southern District of New York, in which the class plaintiffs are the holders of a significant majority of the bonds at issue. On March 10, 2005, Deutsche Bank AG and DBSI reached a settlement agreement, subject to court approval, resolving the class action claims asserted against them, for a payment of approximately U.S.$ 325 million. The settlement of the class action claims does not resolve the individual actions brought by investors who chose to opt out of the federal class action. The financial effects of the class action settlement are reflected in our 2004 consolidated financial statements. 31 Philipp Holzmann AG. Philipp Holzmann AG ("Holzmann") is a major German construction firm which filed for insolvency in March 2002. The Group had been a major creditor bank and holder of an equity interest of Holzmann for many decades, and, from April 1997 until April 2000, a former member of Deutsche Bank AG's Board of Managing Directors was the Chairman of its Supervisory Board. When Holzmann had become insolvent at the end of 1999, a consortium of banks led by Deutsche Bank participated in late 1999 and early 2000 in a restructuring of Holzmann that included the banks' extension of a credit facility, participation in a capital increase and exchange of debt into convertible bonds. In March 2002, Holzmann and several of its subsidiaries, including in particular imbau Industrielles Bauen GmbH ("imbau"), filed for insolvency. As a result of this insolvency, the administrators for Holzmann and for imbau and a group of bondholders have informed the Group they may assert claims against the Group because of its role as lender to the Holzmann group prior to and after the restructuring and as leader of the consortium of banks which supported the restructuring. The purported claims include claims that amounts repaid to the banks constituted voidable preferences that should be returned to the insolvent entities and claims of lender liability resulting from the banks' support for an allegedly infeasible restructuring. Although the Group is in ongoing discussions, the Group cannot exclude that some of the parties may file lawsuits against it. To date, the administrator for imbau filed a lawsuit against the Group in August 2004 alleging that payments received by the Group in respect of a loan made to imbau in 1997 and 1998 and in connection with a real estate transaction that was part of the restructuring constituted voidable preferences that should be returned to the insolvent entity. Additionally, Gebema N.V. filed a lawsuit in 2000 seeking damages against the Group alleging deficiencies in the offering documents based on which Gebema N.V. had invested in equity and convertible bonds of Holzmann in 1998. Due to the nature of its business, the Group is involved in litigation, arbitration and regulatory proceedings in Germany and in a number of jurisdictions outside Germany, including the United States, arising in the ordinary course of business. Such matters are subject to many uncertainties, and the outcome of individual matters is not predictable with assurance. Although the final resolution of any such matters could have a material effect on the Group's consolidated operating results for a particular reporting period, the Group believes that it should not materially affect its consolidated financial position. 32 RoE TARGET DEFINITION During the implementation of our "transformation strategy" started in 2002, the Group disclosed its financial results on a U.S. GAAP basis and additionally on an underlying basis. After the completion of our transformation strategy, our underlying results and our reported U.S. GAAP results have substantially converged. In light of this convergence, our 2005 pre-tax RoE target of 25% was defined as pre-tax income on a reported U.S. GAAP basis before restructuring charges divided by average active equity. Below is a table which reconciles our pre-tax U.S. GAAP results to the adjusted results used for target tracking purposes.

(1) Income before income tax expense and cumulative effect of accounting changes. We continue to disclose the Group's underlying results to permit the reader to compare current results to those previously disclosed on an underlying basis. In addition, we continue to report the results of our business segments on an underlying basis because that is the measure used internally by management to monitor the financial performance of those segments. 33 RECONCILIATION OF REPORTED TO UNDERLYING RESULTS This document contains non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, including underlying revenues, total provision for credit losses, operating cost base, underlying pre-tax profit, average active equity and related ratios. Set forth below are - - definitions of such non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, - - reconciliation of such measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures. DEFINITIONS OF FINANCIAL MEASURES We use the following terms with the following meanings: - - Underlying revenues: Net revenues less specific revenue items as referred to in the respective tables net of policyholder benefits and claims (reclassified from noninterest expenses). - - Total provision for credit losses: Provision for loan losses plus provision for off-balance sheet positions (reclassified from noninterest expenses). - - Operating cost base: Noninterest expenses less provision for off-balance sheet positions (reclassified to provision for credit losses), policyholder benefits and claims (reclassified to underlying revenues), minority interest, restructuring activities and goodwill impairment/impairment of intangibles. - - Underlying pre-tax profit: Income before income taxes less restructuring activities, goodwill impairment/impairment of intangibles and specific revenue items as referred to in the respective tables. - - Underlying cost/income ratio in %: Operating cost base as a percentage of underlying revenues. Cost/income ratio in %, which is defined as total noninterest expenses as a percentage of total net revenues, is also provided. - - Average active equity: The portion of adjusted average total shareholders' equity that has been allocated to a segment pursuant to the Group's capital allocation framework. The overriding objective of this framework is to allocate adjusted average total shareholders' equity based on the respective goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lifetimes as well as the economic capital of each segment. In the second quarter of 2005, the measurement of operational risk has been further refined as part of the bank's Basel II preparation for the Advanced Measurement Approach. This refinement resulted in no material change in the operational risk economic capital for the Group but a higher allocation of operational risk economic capital to CB&S and reductions in other segments. In determining the total amount of average active equity to be allocated, average total shareholders' equity is adjusted to exclude average unrealized net gains on securities available for sale, net of applicable tax and other, and average dividends. - - Adjusted return on average active equity (after tax) in %: Net income (loss) less the reversal of 1999/2000 credits for tax rate changes and the cumulative effect of accounting changes, net of tax, (annualized) as a percentage of average active equity. Underlying pre-tax return on average active equity in %: Underlying pre-tax profit (annualized) as a percentage of average active equity. Pre-tax return on average active equity in %, which is defined as income before income taxes (annualized) as a percentage of average active equity, is also provided. These returns, which are based on average active equity, should not be compared to those of other companies without considering the differences in the calculation of such ratios. Our capital allocation framework does not allocate all average active equity to the segments. As a result, the weighted average of the segment pre-tax return on average active equity will be larger than the corresponding pre-tax return on average active equity of the Group. 34 - - Underlying equity turnover (based on average active equity) in %: Underlying revenues (annualized) as a percentage of average active equity. Equity turnover (based on average active equity) in %: Net revenues (annualized) as a percentage of average active equity. Equity turnover (based on average shareholders' equity) in %: Net revenues (annualized) as a percentage of average shareholders' equity. - - Underlying profit margin in %: Underlying pre-tax profit as a percentage of underlying revenues. Profit margin in %: Income before income taxes as a percentage of net revenue. Management uses these measures as part of its internal reporting system because it believes that such measures provide it with a more useful indication of the financial performance of the business segments.
