Dark Towers
Deutsche Bank, Donald Trump, and an Epic Trail of Destruction
Book • 2021
In 'Dark Towers,' David Enrich delves into the tumultuous history of Deutsche Bank, revealing its transformation into a symbol of financial recklessness and criminality.
The book traces the bank's origins in the 19th century, its involvement with the Nazis, and its post-war survival.
It also details the bank's aggressive pursuit of Wall Street riches in the 1990s, which led to numerous ethical and legal violations, including market manipulation, sanctions violations, and money laundering for Russian oligarchs.
A significant part of the narrative focuses on the story of Bill Broeksmit, a Deutsche Bank risk manager who committed suicide, and his son Val's quest to uncover the secrets his father kept.
The book highlights the bank's dealings with Donald Trump and the Kushner family, as well as its broader culture of prioritizing profits over ethics and law.
