ABSTRACT
Deutsche Bank Research (DBR) is the think tank of the Deutsche Bank Group and is mandated to improve the bank’s understanding of the environment it works in by feeding foresight knowledge into the decision making process. In addition, DBR’s work helps internal and external customers filter incoming information, assess the importance of current events and evaluate the sustainability of observed changes in their environment. Our corporate customers look for support in detecting the geographical origin of their future customers, competitors and suppliers. An example of this work is the Formel-G, Foresight Model for Evaluating Long-term Growth, which will be presented in this chapter.
