The German lender Deutsche Bank is seeking to cut ties with President Donald Trump after the election, three senior officials at the bank told Reuters on Tuesday.
Deutsche Bank could seek to sell or demand repayment of about $340 million in outstanding loans to the Trump Organization, the report said.
Trump's ties with Deutsche Bank have long been scrutinized. Over the years the bank has become the biggest lender to the Trump Organization, the umbrella company for Trump's hotels, golf resorts, and other businesses.
But the bank is now reportedly keen to shed its last connection to the president: three loans, totaling about $340 million, personally guaranteed by the president and taken against the value of his properties. The loans are said to start becoming due for repayment in two years.

The whole reason for Deutsche to open a an American branch in NYC was so it could pay Iraq and Iran in dollars so they could become the terrorists they were, while USA interests were trying to keep the lid onMiddle East violence.
Major money laundering history, continues to this day.
Then Deutsche met trump. It was a $$$ marriage made in heaven, the bank helped him quietly buy properties in other countries which were appreciative of a way to clean up money.
The book is very readable, it's title is Dark Towers. When I mentioned it here the other day, I think someone was referring to another book of same name, which I am not familiar with.
Anyhow, all Deutsche is doing at this point is distance itself from the growing odor of a disgraced and therefore powerless trump,
and try to recoup some loan losses.
In truth, the bank made huge fees every time they dealt with trump.

The bank had "ignored red flags on Epstein". From 2013 to 2018, "Epstein, his related entities and his associates" had opened over forty accounts with Deutsche Bank.
