FRANKFURT prosecutors said they executed a search warrant at a Deutsche Bank branch in central Frankfurt on Tuesday but disclosed no further details.

Deutsche Bank declined to comment.

The branch is at the base of the bank’s headquarters.

Prosecutors said in a statement sent to Reuters on Wednesday that the search warrant was issued by a Frankfurt court in June.

“For tactical reasons related to the investigation, further details cannot be disclosed at this time,” the prosecutors said.

Over the years, Deutsche Bank has faced searches from time to time. One of the most recent was in January in an investigation related to money laundering.
