Germany's economy in crisis: Experts disagree about economic options

According to a report by www.tagesschau.de, Germany's economy remains in crisis mode. One of the current points of conflict is the question of how the conditions for German companies can be improved. Finance Minister Christian Lindner and Economics Minister Robert Habeck have the same goal, but different views on how this should be achieved. Habeck advocates a special fund worth billions to enable tax credits and depreciation, while Lindner has floated the idea of ​​abolishing the solidarity surcharge for companies. The dispute over the direction between the two ministers and the federal government's lack of an economic policy strategy are causing uncertainty and disagreement. There are also discussions about the question of whether new debt should be taken out to strengthen the economy.

The market analysis shows that this uncertainty could lead to a further deterioration in the economic climate and Germany could fall behind internationally. Companies are expecting a lull and a lack of orders. Economic researchers expect countries such as Spain, Italy and France to record more growth than Germany.

The quality of the location depends on many factors and lower corporate taxes alone would not be enough to strengthen the business location. Economists agree that a broader range of measures is necessary to strengthen the country as a business location. Overall, the situation is unclear and requires clarification as soon as possible in order to stabilize the further development of the German economy.
