The German central bank is The Deutsche Bundesbank,which literally means "German Federal Bank" not "Bank of Germany".
- iggldiggl 4y agoAlso regarding the putative "Bank of Germany" – in German "Deutsche Bank" (literally "German Bank") sounds more natural than "Bank von Deutschland" (if you literally translate "Bank of Germany"), and there actually is a "Deutsche Bank", but it is a private entity (and always has been).
