DB might become the next lehman brothers if things continue same way for more time..
DB has the word "Deutsche" attached to it for a reason. German government / Germany will not let it happen.
Talking sementics eh...till yesterday, DB had a market cap of EUR 18bn, India's Kotak Mahindra had EUR 16bn. Former is 140 years old, latter hardly 14.
German economy is not able to generate jobs, so Angela Merkel is facing a dissident population. If DB is bailed out, the political risk might increase if parallels are drawn to the bailout of US banks in 2008. On the contrary, bailout might be necessary to stop a system collapse. Either way, effect will be negative on German economy as a whole, as system collapse will lead to credit crunch and a bailout will affect the fiscal spending.
