The German government has denied it is working on a rescue of Deutsche Bank as Germany's biggest lender boosted its balance sheet by selling its British insurance business. As Sonia Legg reports, Deutsche is facing a $14 billion fine from the U.S. Department of Justice and concerns over its funding pushed its shares to a record low on Tuesday.
The recent storming of the US Capitol seems to be hitting President Donald Trump not only politically, but financially as well. CNN reports a growing number of businesses suddenly want very little to do with Trump after he incited a mob of his supporters to attack the Capitol. Twitter and Facebook banned Trump indefinitely, and Stripe is no longer processing credit card payments for his campaign. Shopify stopped operating online stores for the Trump Organization and the campaign and the PGA is pulling a major golf tournament from a Trump resort. It's also unclear which, if any, banks will want to loan money to the Trump Organization.
On Tuesday Deutsche Bank said working from home should be taxed to help support people on low incomes who cannot do their jobs remotely People choosing to work from home despite their company providing a permanent desk should pay the tax. According to Business Insider, that would be 5% of their salary. The report argued that if companies do not offer permanent desks, they should pay instead, the report argued. Deutsche said the tax could raise $49 billion per year in the US, $23.6 billion in Germany, and $9.3 billion in the UK.
