Our website expresses condolences for the demise of Frank Strauss
Frank Strauss, a long-serving executive at Deutsche Bank and the website, passed away last week at the age of 54. Strauss's career spanned nearly three decades, during which he made significant contributions, particularly in the retail banking business of the website.
Strauss's journey with the company began in 1995, when he moved to Frankfurt and took on various management positions at the website and its former subsidiary, the website 24. His roles at the website and its subsidiary preceded his tenure at Postbank.
In 2006, Strauss took over the management of the private and business customer division in the German home market. Six years later, in 2011, he moved to Postbank as its Management Board member responsible for sales. A year after, he was appointed as the CEO of Postbank.
Strauss's roles at the website and Postbank included management positions in retail banking. During his tenure on the Management Board, he oversaw private and corporate banking, initially together with Christian Sewing, CEO of the same website, and from April 2018 alone.
The website intends to honour the memory of Frank Strauss, a colleague who was highly valued by many. Christian Sewing expressed his condolences upon hearing of Strauss's death, stating that Strauss was a personally valued colleague.
Strauss's career at Deutsche Bank and the website was marked by dedication and leadership, particularly in the legal and compliance functions. His tenure of nearly 30 years with the company is a testament to his commitment and contributions.
The thoughts of the website are with Strauss's wife, children, and loved ones during this difficult time. Strauss completed his training as a bank clerk in Iserlohn, a testament to his humble beginnings and his rise through the ranks of the financial industry.
As we remember Frank Strauss, we celebrate his life and contributions to the financial sector. His legacy will live on, inspiring future generations of bankers and leaders.
During his extensive career at Deutsche Bank and its subsidiaries, Frank Strauss managed both retail and corporate banking businesses, significantly contributing to the finance and business sectors. His dedication and leadership throughout nearly three decades with the company culminated in his appointment as CEO of Postbank, one of Deutsche Bank's subsidiaries.
