Mr. Doddy served as one of Deutsche Bank’s leading technology mavens, helping push a series of advanced innovations for the global lender. These were in areas such as thumbprint technology and facial recognition, among others, developed in Deutsche Bank labs in Berlin, New York, London, and Silicon Valley.
The move comes at an interesting time for Deutsche Bank as many global lenders have opted to take a more digitalized approach to their banking. Many of these groups have already installed fintech labs, working groups, and other personnel to help integrate a variety of technology into their existing operations as traditional banking as we know it looks to modernize.
