Deutsche Bank is to cut 800 jobs in a new cost-saving drive after reporting a bigger than expected rise in profit for the first quarter, a volatile period globally for finance companies.

Germany’s biggest bank produced solid earnings at a time when banks had to be rescued in the United States and in Switzerland. The turmoil caused investors to panic and customers to withdraw deposits, and the turbulence is continuing.

The jobs will come from across the bank but will be focused on senior non-client facing roles, executives said, describing the move as one of several measures to cut costs by an additional 500 million euros over the next few years. Deutsche’s staff totalled 86,712 at the end of the first quarter.
