Alfred Herrhausen

Ackermann, as head of Deutsche Bank is asked on the German talk show program "Maybrit Illner", on May 13, 2010, after an interlude about Herrhausen's ambitions in debt relief for countries that are unable to pay and his violent death - in connection with the so-called financial crisis of the past years:

“Maybrit Illner: Mr. Ackermann, you are also head of the International Banking Federation. Couldn't you just have made such a demand to all your colleagues who came out of this crisis really clean?

Josef Ackermann: I think the same would have happened to me as it did to Mr Herrhausen. [...]”
