The Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Deutsche Bank, Alexander Wynaendts, will stand for re-election at the 2026 Annual General Meeting.
He has led the bank’s Supervisory Board since May 2022, and his first term will expire next year. The Supervisory Board has now unanimously nominated him for another four-year term. The corresponding election proposal will be made as usual with the invitation to the AGM in spring 2026.
“Leading Deutsche Bank’s Supervisory Board is a great privilege and I thank my colleagues for their trust,” Wynaendts said. “Deutsche Bank has made significant progress in the past years. Together with management and all employees we will continue our efforts to focus on our clients, create more value for shareholders, be a good employer and contribute to our society.”
Before joining Deutsche Bank, Wynaendts served from 2008 to 2020 as CEO of Aegon N.V., a leading European financial institution providing life insurance, pensions and asset management. He began his career at ABN AMRO, where he spent 13 years in private and investment banking in Amsterdam and London. Wynaendts joined Aegon N.V. in 1997 and held various leadership roles before becoming CEO in 2008. Wynaendts is a member of the Board of Directors of Air France-KLM and Uber Technologies. From 2019 to 2021, he was also a Board member at Citigroup.
