How Germany can be strengthened as a location - the opinion of a financial expert

According to a report by www.tagesschau.de,

The political parties in Germany agree that Germany as a business location must be strengthened. But how exactly this should happen causes irritation and heated discussions. The Union first blocked the government's Growth Opportunities Act and then sent its own reform proposals to the traffic light government by letter. Finance Minister Lindner speaks of blockages and calls for more courage, while the Chancellor is dissatisfied with the possible compromise on the “Growth Opportunities Act”.

The German economy is going through a difficult phase and it is undisputed that measures must be taken to maintain competitiveness. However, the political disunity and blockades can have a serious impact on the market and the financial industry. The uncertainty regarding economic reforms and relief can lead to a lower willingness to invest, which in turn could affect the economy and the growth of the German economy.

The measures proposed by the Union, such as limiting social contributions and tax advantages for overtime, could provide short-term relief for certain population groups, but in the long term a balanced approach must be taken to take into account the needs of all stakeholders. The discussions about tax cuts and relief distract from the urgently needed structural reforms that are necessary to strengthen Germany's competitiveness.

It is therefore crucial that political parties work together constructively to take appropriate measures that provide both short-term relief and long-term structural reforms. The time for discussions and letters is limited, and therefore quick and effective solutions should be prioritized in the interests of Germany as a business location.
