By Andreas Krner and Maiya Keidan FRANKFURT/LONDON (Reuters) - A report that Deutsche Bank was close to a cut-price settlement with U.S. authorities over the sale of toxic mortgage bonds helped to fuel a recovery in its shares on Friday after its chief executive said the group remained stable. Deutsche, which is Germany's largest bank and employs around 100,000 people, has been engulfed by crisis after being handed the demand for up to $14 billion earlier in September by the Department of Justice (DOJ) for misselling mortgage-backed securities before the financial crisis. Deutsche and the German finance ministry declined to comment on the report.

Deutsche Bank is near a deal with US officials to slash a huge fine over its dealings prior to the 2008 financial crisis, a source said Friday, sparking a dramatic rally in the German giant's shares. Stock in Germany's biggest lender closed at 11.57 euros ($13), up 6.39 percent on Thursday's close after a flurry of last-minute buying activity following the news the bank had negotiated a much lower fine than expected with the US Department of Justice. Deutsche Bank is close to settling the fine over its sales of toxic mortgage bonds transacted ahead of the financial crisis for $5.4 billion, well below the government's initial $14 billion demand, a person familiar with the talks between Deutsche and the DoJ told AFP.

Deutsche Bank could pay about $6 billion to settle charges related to its sale of toxic mortgage bonds before the financial crisis, analysts at Morgan Stanley estimated in a note to clients. Germany's largest lender said about two weeks ago it would fight a $14 billion demand from the U.S. Department of Justice to settle claims it missold the securities. Talk of a smaller-than-expected fine bounced Deutsche Bank shares sharply off their lows on Friday to end the day up 6.4 percent. Fri, 30 Sep 2016 12:26:30 -0400
