Deutsche Bank has bolstered pay for its junior bankers, the latest large investment bank to increase salaries amid a battle for talent.

The German lender has raised pay for first year analysts within its origination and advisory unit in the US to $100,000, according to a person familiar with the matter, and to $105,000 for those in their second year, putting Deutsche in line with Wall Street peers.
