CEO of Deutsche Bank, Josef Ackermann  , speaks during the annual press conference in Frankfurt, central Germany, Thursday, Feb.3, 2011. Deutsche Bank AG's fourth-quarter and full-year earnings declined by more than half as it absorbed the cost of buying retail lender Deutsche Postbank and other acquisitions, but the company said Thursday that revenues increased sharply and it is well-placed for further growth. Germany's biggest bank said it earned 605 million euro (US dlrs836 million) in the October-December quarter. That was down from 1.31 billion euro a year earlier, a figure that was bolstered by tax breaks in the U.S., and in line with guidance issued earlier this week.
