Deutsche Bank has confirmed that Rob Scott, co-head of global sales & relationship management, has resigned. Scott was appointed to the role this July along with co-head Michael Aschauer in a realignment of Deutsches custody business.
Aschauer now will fill the global head of sales & relationship management role on his own, according to Ann Robertson, the banks director of marketing & communications in London.
Scotts resignation is the second high-profile departure for the bank in a handful of months. Michael Gedigk, who was managing director and global head of client management and origination of Deutsches custody, trust and securities services businesses, left the firm in the midst of the July management shake-up.
Robertson says the departures of Gedigk and Scott are not connected, and do not represent any further change in strategy or structure.
Roger Harrold, Deutsche Banks global head of Direct Securities Services and to whom Scott and Aschauer report, could not be reached for comment.
