’s annual strategic plan in line with Deutsche Bank’s CET 1 and Leverage Ratio ambitions. As a part of Deutsche Bank’s quarterly process, the Group Asset and Liability Committee approves divisional resource limits for total capital demand (defined as the sum of RWA and certain RWA equivalents of Capital Deduction Items and certain RWA equivalents of Capital Buffer Requirements items) and leverage exposure that are based on the strategic plan but adjusted for market conditions and the short-term outlook. Limits are enforced through a close monitoring process and an excess charging mechanism. Overall regulatory capital requirements are principally driven by either Deutsche Bank’s CET 1 ratio (solvency) or leverage ratio (leverage) requirements, whichever is the more binding constraint. For the internal capital allocation, the combined contribution of each segment to the Group’s Common Equity Tier 1 ratio, the Group’s Leverage ratio and the Group’s Capital Loss under Stress are weighted to reflect their relative importance and level of constraint to the Group. Contributions to the Common Equity Tier 1 ratio and the Leverage ratio are measured through RWA and Leverage Ratio Exposure (LRE). The Group’s Capital Loss under Stress is a measure of the Group’s overall economic risk exposure under a defined stress scenario. Goodwill, other intangible assets, and business-related regulatory capital deduction items included in total capital demand are directly allocated to the respective segments, supporting the calculation of the allocated tangible shareholders equity and the respective rate of return. Most of Deutsche Bank’s subsidiaries and several of Deutsche Bank’s branches are subject to legal and regulatory capital requirements. In developing, implementing, and testing Deutsche Bank’s capital and liquidity position, the bank fully takes such legal and regulatory requirements into account. Any material capital requests of Deutsche Bank’s branches and subsidiaries across the globe are presented to and approved by the Group Investment Committee prior to execution. Further, Treasury is a member of Deutsche Bank’s Pensions Committee and represented in relevant Investment Committees overseeing the management of the assets of the largest Deutsche Bank pension funds in Germany. These investment committees set the investment strategy for these funds in line with the bank’s investment objective to protect the capital base and distribution capacity of the bank.
