Plot
In the high-stakes world of international finance, Jana Liekam, a gifted young investment banker, finds herself ousted from the esteemed halls of Crédit International in Luxembourg. However, in the glittering financial hub of Frankfurt, she's thrown a lifeline by the formidable Gabriel Fenger, Head of Investment Banking at Deutsche Invest. Leaving her love and his daughter behind, Jana steps into her dream job, impressing her new team with her fervor and determination. Yet, unbeknownst to her, the strings of her life are still being pulled by Christelle Leblanc, Jana's former boss at Crédit International, who maneuvers her like a pawn in a ruthless game of power.
As the financial landscape shifts and quakes in the aftermath of a crisis, Jana finds herself in the crucible of a new era. Regulations tighten, and the once-mighty German Global Invest bank faces an uphill battle. Leblanc, now heading investments, grapples with her elusive ambition for a seat on the board. In Frankfurt, Jana too faces unanticipated challenges. Yet she has her team, a resilient ship navigating the stormy seas of change, ready to face the rising tide of agile start-ups and FinTechs that threaten to redefine the world of banking.
Caught in a vortex of power plays, blackmail, and relentless ambition, Jana must balance her obligations and fend off Leblanc's insidious manipulation. As the financial world reinvents itself, will Jana's career survive the merciless churn or will she become another casualty in the merciless world of Bad Banks?
