BERLIN (Reuters) - Calogero Gambino,
a senior Deutsche Bank <DBKGn.DE> regulatory lawyer, has been found dead
in New York in what appears to have been a suicide, the Wall Street
Journal reported on Saturday, citing New York City officials and other
sources.

The 41-year-old man was found early on Oct. 20 hanging by the neck
from a stairway banister, the newspaper said.
Gambino, an associate general counsel and a managing director who
worked for the German bank for 11 years, was found by his wife and
pronounced dead by medical practitioners at the scene, according to
the paper.
He had been closely involved in negotiating legal issues for
Deutsche Bank such as a probe by regulators of banks over
allegations they manipulated the Libor benchmark interest rate as
well as currency markets, the newspaper said.
He was also an associate at a private law firm and a regulatory
enforcement lawyer between 1997 and 1999, the Wall Street Journal
said, citing Gambino's LinkedIn profile and conference biographies.
Germany's biggest lender, which has already paid 6.1 billion euros
in fines and settlements in the past two and a half years, expects
to post litigation costs of 894 million euros alone for the third
quarter of 2014.

suicide.
