As a transaction bank, Deutsche WertpapierService Bank AG (dwpbank) handles securities processing for financial institutions from the savings and cooperative sectors, but also from the private and commercial banking sector. Dwpbank currently manages around 4.8 million securities accounts.

history

The dwpbank in its current form was created on August 4, 2003 from the merger between Bank for Securities Service and Systems AG, Frankfurt (bws bank) and WPS WertpapierService Bank AG, Düsseldorf (WPS Bank). The predecessor institutes started as pioneers in transaction banking in mid-1998. When it was founded, the company shares were divided between the Sparkassenverband Westfalen-Lippe , Münster with 25%, the Rheinische SGV , Düsseldorf with 25%, the DZ Bank , Frankfurt with 40% and the WGZ-Bank , Düsseldorf with 10%. The ownership structure was thus divided equally between the Volksbank and Sparkasse group. However, the ownership structure is open to other owners.

In March 2007 dwpbank expanded with the acquisition of TxB Transaktionsbank GmbH. TxB, initially continued as a wholly-owned subsidiary in the "dwpbank Group", was merged with dwpbank on August 25, 2008.

In 2017, dwp Service GmbH was founded as a 100% subsidiary based in Halle (Saale) , which provides dwpbank customers with 84 employees in the back office area. Dwpbank also owns 100% of dwp Software Kft, based in Budapest , which is responsible for software development and IT consulting with its 35 employees.

The subscribed capital is divided into:

  • 50% DZ Bank

  • 20% Rheinischer Sparkassen- und Giroverband
  • 3.74501% BayernLB
  • 3.74499% Landesbank Hessen-Thüringen
  • 2.51% HSH Nordbank
