  "notes": "Complete statement from press conference on Deutsche Bundesbank's 2025 Annual Report. Key themes: significantly improved earnings situation with loss for year halved to €8.6 billion; net equity strengthened to €363 billion (+44.7%) primarily due to gold revaluation (+€125 billion); open euro interest rate position burden declining as monetary policy securities mature; accumulated losses expected to persist for extended period with no profit distributions anticipated."
