07:37 AM EDT, 05/23/2025 (MT Newswires) -- (Updates to add Deutsche Bank's ( DB ) statement in the fourth paragraph.)

Deutsche Bank ( DB ) is selling a significant risk transfer, or SRT, tied to $3 billion in corporate loans through transactions involving the sale of notes in exchange for yields that can frequently top 10%, Bloomberg News reported Friday, citing unnamed sources familiar with the matter.

The loans are in Europe and North America and the SRT is about 8% of the loans or around $240 million, according to the report.

Bloomberg said SRTs allow banks to buy insurance on debt and free up capital while keeping the assets on their books.

Deutsche Bank ( DB ) declined to comment when reached by MT Newswires.
