Deutsche Bank AG (DB) is on the rise despite speculation that it will sell new shares to raise about $11.4 billion to increase capital levels. European finance ministers and central bankers will be meeting this weekend to discuss the region's financial sector and capital reserves in particular. Many analysts expect the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision to require banks to boost reserves, and the Association of German Banks said earlier this week that about 36 billion euros in new capital will be needed in Germany alone to meet the committee's planned leverage ratio. Deutsche Bank shares opened at $60.53 on the NYSE, and have traded between $54.14 and $84.93 over the past 12 months.
