A former Commerzbank AG director, who said she was discriminated against in an environment more akin to a fraternity and excluded from discussions held in German, lost her employment suit against the bank.

Jenus Fiouzi, a senior currency hedge-fund saleswoman in London, claimed she was given unfair bonus payments and eventually fired after about a year at the bank because because she was a woman and not German.
