Deutsche Bank is paying €50m for a 4.9 per cent stake in Deposit Solutions in a transaction that values the Hamburg-based start-up at more than €1bn.
Deposit Solutions operates software that links retail clients and lenders, allowing banks to collect deposits from people across Europe who are not their direct customers. It is a rival to Berlin-based Raisin, which among other investors is backed by PayPal.
