# Deutsche Bank Plans Fresh EUR500 Million Buyback After Earnings Increase

By Joshua Kirby

Deutsche Bank said it will buy back another half a billion euros, equivalent to $569.3 million, in shares after booking a sharp rise in profit. 

Germany's largest lender made 2.68 billion euros in pretax profit over the quarter through June, it said Wednesday. That marks an 11% rise from the same period last year and above the 2.25 billion euros expected by analysts, according to a company-compiled consensus. 

The bank said it will use this year's net profit to buy back 500 million euros in its own shares, adding to a EUR1 billion buyback recently completed. 

"We remain well positioned to invest in our businesses and deliver attractive shareholder returns," finance chief Raja Akram said.
