  "account": "Frankfurt - The Dekabank has surpassed the previous year's record in the first half of the year for the sale of funds and certificates, and now dares to anticipate more profit for the entire year. After a total profit of slightly more than 546 million euros in the first six months, the asset house of the Sparkassen raised its profit forecast for the whole year from over 700 million euros to around 800 million euros. However, this still remains far below the pre-year's profit, which reached nearly 962.9 million euros, close to a record high. In the first six months of the current year, Dekabank sold as many funds and certificates as never before in a first half, climbing 14.6 percent compared to a strong previous year, totaling around 23.3 billion euros. \"Increasingly, people realize over the years the importance of the capital market for their wealth building,\" said CEO Georg Stocker. \"But a large part of the population remains uninvested in the capital market...\" Nonetheless, it is good that 2027 will see the launch of the new private pension savings deposit, where savers can invest in ETFs and pension funds with state support. The bank aims to present its offer by the end of the third quarter of 2026. Recently, Scalable Capital entered the competition for the pension savings deposit, offering no fees for the deposit management, savings plans, deposits, and trades, with annual costs of funds not exceeding 0.15 percent.",
