SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

Listing and Registration on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (Bankers 
Trust Corporation and BT Alex. Brown Holdings Incorporated, 7\5/8\% 
Senior Notes (due 2005)) File No. 1-5920

March 22, 2002.
    Bankers Trust Corporation and BT Alex. Brown Holdings Incorporated 
(``Issuer''), has filed an application with the Securities and Exchange 
Commission (``Commission''), pursuant to section 12(d) of the 
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'') \1\ and Rule 12d2-2(d) 
thereunder,\2\ to withdraw its 7\5/8\% Senior Notes (due 2005) 
(``Security''), from listing and registration on the New York Stock 
Exchange, Inc. (``NYSE'' or ``Exchange'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78l(d).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.12d2-2(d).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On January 24, 2002, and February 5, 2002, respectively, the Board 
of Directors of the Issuer adopted resolutions to terminate the NYSE 
listing of its Security. In June 1999, the Issuer was acquired by 
Deutsche Bank AG and the Issuer's common stock was terminated on the 
NYSE. The Issuer states that it wishes to reduce the administrative 
burden to former entities that are not actively engaged in customer 
business. In addition, as a part of the efforts of Deutsche Bank AG to 
promote a more uniform brand in the United States, the Issuer has 
proposed that the name of the Corporation be changed to Deutsche Bank 
Trust Corporation, effective on or about April 15, 2002. The Issuer 
states that withdrawal of the Security from listing and registration on 
the NYSE will not affect an investor's ability to trade in the over-
the-counter market. The Security currently has a limited number of 
registered holders. The Issuer is not obligated by the terms of the 
indenture under which the Security was issued or by any other document 
to maintain a listing on the NYSE or any other exchange. The Company 
has stated that the NYSE does not intend to object to the withdrawal of 
the Security.
    Any interested person may, on or before April 15, 2002, submit by 
letter to the Secretary of the Securities and Exchange Commission, 450 
Fifth Street, NW., Washington, DC 20549-0609, facts bearing upon 
whether the application has been made in accordance with the rules of 
the NYSE and what terms, if any, should be imposed by the Commission 
for the protection of investors. The Commission, based on the 
information submitted to it, will issue an order granting the 
application after the date mentioned above, unless the Commission 
determines to order a hearing on the matter.
