90 applications, primarily in retail banking, will be outsourced to Atos. The service starts on 1 December and the IT staff will be transferred then. The staff affected come mostly from Frankfurt, with a few more based in Hamburg. They are a mixture of developers and project managers.

Dresdner CIO Friedrich Wöbking said in a statement: "The long-term collaboration of both companies will pave the way for reacting faster, more efficiently and more flexibly to new requirements in banking IT."

Atos Origin takes over the maintenance and development of IT applications within private and business banking of Dresdner Bank as part of the seven-year agreement.
