Across Europe, investment products have become a decisive battleground for customer ownership, long-term profitability, and primary banking relationships. DKB | Deutsche Kreditbank AG , Germany’s second-largest direct bank, is meeting that challenge head-on. As part of its 2030 strategy, the bank is elevating the securities account to a second anchor product alongside the current account, with a target of more than doubling securities accounts to 2 million by 2030. Delivering on that ambition requires infrastructure built for it: fractional investing, automated savings plans, real-time processing, cloud-native scalability, and readiness for upcoming pension frameworks like Altersvorsorgedepot and Frühstart-Rente. That’s where we come in. Since September 2025, Upvest has been DKB’s investment infrastructure partner for this next phase of brokerage growth, providing the automation, scalability, and product development capabilities needed to combine the trust of an established bank with the speed of a digital-first platform. We’re proud to provide the technological backbone enabling DKB to scale one of Germany’s most ambitious brokerage growth strategies toward 2030. Read the full story here: 👉 https://lnkd.in/dV5KgTAg
