Targets

In 2025, there were no measurable, time-bound and outcome-oriented targets within the meaning of the ESRS in relation to whistleblower protection. Our aim is to maintain a high standard of whistleblower management within DB Group.

Effective whistleblower protection requires a reliable whistleblower system. That is why our whistleblower system is audited internally and externally. A data protection audit of the electronic whistleblower system was carried out in 2025, for example. The quality of our whistleblower system is also confirmed as part of CMS audits The next Group-wide review of the CMS is planned for 2026/2027.
