Vrablic said in a statement that she will be retiring.

“I’ve chosen to resign my position with the bank effective December 31 and am looking forward to my retirement,” she said.

An investigation by the Manhattan District Attorney’s office into the Trump Organization’s finances is currently ongoing. A couple of Deutsche employees have been interviewed in recent weeks in relation to the inquiry.

The investigators are looking into, among other things, allegations that the Trump Organization was attempting to defraud lenders by inflating the values of certain assets.
