Deutsche Bank
28 SPAC IPOs underwritten · 19 as left lead · 2 active
Deutsche Bank has been active in the SPAC underwriting market since 2011, accumulating twenty-eight blank-check transactions over that span and serving as left lead bookrunner on nineteen of those deals. The global investment bank currently holds two active mandates in its SPAC pipeline, with thirteen transactions closed to date. Deutsche Bank's sustained participation across more than a decade reflects its broad capital-markets platform and institutional reach within the financial-services sector. Its left-lead share of roughly 68 percent of its total deal count underscores a consistent role as a primary structuring bank rather than a passive co-manager.
