Commerzbank
Commerzbank's May 8, 2026 press release: "In the next phase of development, Commerzbank will consistently deploy AI agents to support entire processes – ranging from account switching and know-your-customer (KYC) procedures and document checks to the drafting of contracts. This will significantly reduce labour-intensive tasks." and "The Bank’s continued transformation is accompanied by a Group-wide reduction of around a further 3,000 gross positions." CEO Bettina Orlopp told dpa on May 15 that AI would account for a "very large part" of the cuts.
