DUBAI -- Deutsche Bank said Sunday that Henry Azzam, the chairman of its Middle East and North Africa (MENA) operations -- one of the region's most senior bankers -- has stepped down.
A spokesperson for the group confirmed the news when contacted by Zawya Dow Jones. Azzam referred to the bank when called for comment.
He will remain with the bank as an adviser, the Deutsche Bank spokesman said.
Azzam became nonexecutive chairman for the German banking heavyweight for the MENA region in 2010. Before that, he was chief executive of Deutsche Bank's Middle East business since 2007.
Azzam, an economist, was a high-profile banker who represented the bank at conferences and international events.

Maureen Rosenbaum wasn’t taking any chances against rival St. Francis Prep.
Her Archbishop Molloy team had two straight days off for the first time this season after its doubleheader with Kellenberg was cancelled Saturday because of rain. She had her players hitting in the cage before school at 7 a.m. Monday.
“I just wanted to feel confident,” Rosenbaum said.
The extra swings certainly paid dividends. Molloy pounded out 13 hits, all singles outside of a leadoff homer from Theresa Conway. Five of those hits came in a five-run fifth after the Terriers tied the score the inning prior. Molloy went on to win 9-5 in CHSAA Brooklyn/Queens ‘AA' softball at Victory Field.

Archbishop Molloy's Taylor Moss drove in the winning run against St. Francis Prep.
“I thought we needed it to keep everything going,” right fielder Taylor Moss said.
The best sign for the Stanners, who led 4-0 after three innings, was that the hits came throughout the order. Every player got at least one. In the decisive inning, Moss provided the go-ahead run and seeing a blast to the gap in left center run down by SFP center fielder Tara O’Rourke in the third. This time Moss was able to get the end of the bat on the ball and dunk it into right field to bring home Cassie Hickey to make it 5-4.
“It’s kind of funny how it works out,” Taylor Moss said. “I kind of liked that hit [in the third], felt better off the bat, but didn’t get the job done.”
Dana Moss, who was 2-for-4 with two RBIs and two runs scored, and Julianna Tracy both provided RBI singles in the frame for Molloy (2-1). Two run scored when Kristen Ponticelli beat second baseman Kayla Ward to first on a roller up the line. Fallon McCarthy was 3-for-4 and Maria Palmeri and Victoria Goldbach each scored twice.
“Everybody contributed,” Dana Moss said.
The Terriers (1-1) finally got on the board with an Eishara Campbell solo homer in the top of the fifth. An inning later, they hit line drives against Goldbach, who lost control of her curveball. She allowed five hits and struck out nine. Jessica Menna had a two-run single and Nicole Lomangino blasted an RBI triple to left to tie the score at 4 for SFP.
It was mistakes in the field, both physical and menta,l that came back to haunt St. Francis Prep. Lomangino allowed four earned runs in 5-2/3 innings of work. Errant throws and often times throwing to the wrong base with runners on cost the Terriers runs and extra outs.
“I am baffled by my team’s performance today defensively,” SFP coach Anne Marie Rich said. “They got themselves back in the game. I’m proud of them for that. I have no clue what some of them were doing. There was no communication.”
It took a big late inning by Molloy for it to pick up its second straight league win after falling to Fontbonne Hall to start the season. The extra swings in the morning certainly kept the Stanners sharp and their momentum going.
“I think it paid off, but I think we still need to hit,” Rosenbaum said. “We need a little work in certain parts of the lineup.”

Every other week during the season, Bishop Loughlin’s star junior guard Jasmine Alston took us into her world on and off the court. In this exclusive diary for NYPost.com, Alston chronicles Bishop Loughlin’s quest to prove itself as one of the city’s top programs and it winning a state Federation Class A title.
We did it for Chicken!
We know we can't bring her back, but winning this state Federation ‘A’ championship in her honor was the best thing yet. If she was here, she would have been there cheering us on no matter what.
Violence. All of this needs to stop. It takes for someone close to us to lose their life for everyone to open their eyes and realize that it's not worth it and it's not fair. Life is too short and you can be here and gone tomorrow.
Denis Gostev
Bishop Loughlin's Jasmine Alston helped lead her team to the state Federation Class A title last weekend in Albany.
I love my team with all my heart, but I don't think we couldn’t have come this far without our seniors. They came into Loughlin winning a 'B' JV championship with Chicken.
Aliyah “Nyree” Alston is my big/lil cousin, sister, shrink, teammate, etc., whatever you name it that’s her. Growing up together until today, we are still inseparable. Playing with her my whole life and going to school together with her forever, it’s hard comprehending that she is going to leave me in a few months to go to college and I won’t have her by my side whenever I need her. There isn’t a person I know wholaughs at anything I say no matter how corny it sounds and motivates me to do my best on and off the court at the same time.
Ayana “Yani” Ratliff is like the crazy sister I never had. When I play with her it’s like having Chicken on the court because she plays with so much heart, energy and emotion, it just makes you want to play harder to win. Having Yani not being part of the team next year leaves some stress on us because there is only one Yani, but we know next year we have to step up and get the job done.
Simone Charles is like my back bone/right hand and a part of my family I gained off the court because we are together all the time that she might as well be an Alston. I love her with all my heart and she has left a huge affect on my life forever.
Kiana Clark a.k.a. our freshman has stepped up to play varsity during the season. Even though it was a little difficult adjusting so fast, she will be more than ready by next season.
I am truly grateful and blessed to have all of them in my life and hope the best for them in the future.
On Sept.11, 2011, our angel Tayshana Murphy was taken from us but her legacy and name will never be forgotten. We will make sure everyone knows who Chicken was and what she stood for. She is the best basketball player I will ever meet in my life and I will aspire to fulfill her goals. I will carry her on the court with me every day and she will always be on my mind.
Some people come into your life as if they were “God sent”. They have come to assist you through a difficulty and help show you a way. That was Chicken -- she came into my life for a reason and was taken before I even got to say thank you.
I have been given a chance to honor all that have fallen before me with the skills that I have been blessed with on and off the basketball court. I vow to always give 100 percent because I am truly blessed! Thank you all for sharing a part of me.
Thank you Chicken. Ball in Peace.
