July 9 (Bloomberg) -- Deutsche Bank AG, Commerzbank AG and Deutsche Postbank AG, Germanyâs biggest publicly traded banks, expect to pass European stress tests based on preliminary findings, four people briefed on the process said.
The banks will probably exceed the threshold of a 6 percent Tier 1 ratio under the stress scenario, which assumes an economic slowdown and sovereign-debt losses, said the people, who declined to be identified because the information isnât official. The lenders are due to submit test results to regulators early next week, they said.
Spokesmen for Deutsche Bank and Commerzbank in Frankfurt and Deutsche Postbank in Bonn declined to comment.
