Deutsche Bank (DBKGn.DE) said on Friday it is cooperating with authorities in Italy in an inquiry regarding the sale of Italian sovereign bonds in 2011.
“In 2011 we responded to a related inquiry made by (Italian market regulator) Consob, and we provided information and relevant documents at that time,” Deutsche Bank said in a statement.
A source had told Reuters earlier on Friday that Deutsche Bank is under investigation over the sale of 7 billion euros ($7.99 billion) worth of Italian state debt.
