“Europe” polarises opinion. As results of an online survey commissioned by the Association of German Banks show, a good half of the respondents (52%) think “favourably” of the EU; just under four out of ten (39%), on the other hand, say they think “unfavourably” of it. This is just one of many views on the European Union from our recent survey on European affairs.

Non-Bank Lending in Germany: How Investors can access Lending to the MiddelstandDr. Nicolaus Loos
Presentation held by Dr. Nicolaus Loos at the Private Debt Investor Conference in Munich, June 23rd 2016:
The German Midmarket has for long been considered "closed shop" for European Private Debt players seeking to undertake Direct Lending transactions. Dr. Loos outlines the attractiveness of Germany in comparison to other EU markets and in particular highlights the Mittelstand as an investment case, offering a highly attractive risk-return profile for investors. Accessing this market needs careful considerations though.

European Elections - MEPs and Constituent CommunicationFTI Consulting FR
The EU is going through an existential crisis. Support for the EU is at an all-time low across a swathe of Member States. The campaigns for the forthcoming European Parliament elections (22-25 May) have represented an important opportunity for current and candidate MEPs to explain to citizens what the EU is and does, and the benefits of membership. But has that opportunity been squandered? FTI Consulting examine the results of some proprietary research conducted at how successful MEPs have been in communicating about the EU in the run up to the elections.
Усиление конкуренции за первичные объекты на крупнейших европейских рынках недвижимости заставляет инвесторов переключить внимание на сектор вторичной недвижимости и восстанавливающиеся рынки. Такой вывод содержится в исследовании «Новые тенденции на европейском рынке недвижимости в 2015 году», подготовленном совместно некоммерческой организацией Urban Land Institute (ULI) и фирмой PwC. В отчете подчеркивается рост популярности возможных инвестиций в недвижимость городов, которые особенно серьезно пострадали в результате прошлого кризиса на рынке.

German consumers are pessimistic about the economy. Rising prices and the invasion of Ukraine are top concerns, and we see a significant down-trade in shopping.
In Germany, consumers’ top concerns are rising prices and the invasion of Ukraine, followed by climate change and COVID-19. Pessimism about the current and future state of the economy has eased but remains at a level comparable to attitudes in the early months of the COVID-19-pandemic. As spend for groceries and gasoline soared, consumers reduced money directed to savings and spent less on non-essentials. Of the 70 percent of consumers who have assumed new shopping behaviors in the last three months, more than four out of ten tried private labels. Trade-down in stores visited and brands is clearly visible, with the key drivers of choice being prices and value for money. However, 46 percent of consumers say they plan to splurge in 2022.
This seminar, hosted jointly by the British Embassy and Afi School of Finance, was aimed at companies seeking alternative financing, as well as investors looking for new investment opportunities. It was also of interest to government officials and regulators.

Meinungsumfrage: Wirtschaftsstandort im StresstestBankenverband
Die wirtschaftliche Lage Deutschlands wird im Vergleich zu früheren Untersuchungen sehr pessimistisch beurteilt. Mit lediglich 17%, die die Wirtschaftslage als „gut“, aber 28%, die sie als „schlecht“ einschätzen, fällt das Stimmungsbild so negativ aus wie seit über zehn Jahren nicht mehr. Ihre eigene wirtschaftliche Situation bezeichnen zwar noch 37% als „gut“, das entspricht jedoch ebenfalls einem erheblichen Rückgang gegenüber den Vorjahren.

Das Wachstum der Weltwirtschaft schwächt sich ab. Die hohe Inflation, stark gestiegene Energie- und Rohstoffpreise, anhaltende Lieferengpässe sowie die geopolitischen Unsicherheiten belasten den wirtschaftlichen Ausblick. Der Internationale Währungsfonds (IWF) hat seine Wachstumsprognose für die Weltwirtschaft erneut nach unten revidiert. Er erwartet nun für das Jahr 2022 ein globales Wirtschaftswachstum von 3,2 %. Im Jahr 2023 wird die Weltwirtschaft der Prognose des IWF zufolge nur um 2,7 % wachsen. Diese Rate läge unterhalb des langjährigen Durchschnitts.

Survey: Benefits and perceptions of Europe for Germany
1. Focus on Europe
Results of a representative survey commissioned by
the Association of German Banks ahead of the 20th
German Banking Congress 2014
April 2014
2. I.
Stronger appreciation of the benefits of EU membership for
Germany
European solidarity with the debt-laden eurozone countries in
the form of loans and financial aid has not led in Germany to a
negatively connoted “paymaster” image again. On the contrary,
since 2010 the impression that Germany benefits from EU
membership has grown steadily among citizens (from 23 to
35%), whereas the proportion of those who fear mostly
disadvantages for the country has declined noticeably (from 29
to 19%). In addition, 87% believe that the EU is either
“important” (54%) or “very important” (33%) for Germany’s
economic development.

6. Germany has come through the crisis well
The financial crisis and the sovereign debt crisis have
strengthened awareness that Germany is deeply embedded
in the EU and also benefits economically as a result.
Correspondingly, the great majority of citizens (79%) are
also convinced that Germany is better-off economically than
its western European neighbours. This reflects the view that
the country has come through the crisis/crises relatively
well. For the first time since the turn of the century, a
majority of Germans therefore believe that policymakers
have the ability to fix the country’s economic problems.

A feeling that the euro crisis has been overcome
Alongside a more positive perception of the EU, trust and
confidence in the single European currency have also increased:
only 18% of respondents (following 31% in 2012) currently
believe that the euro brings mostly disadvantages for Germany.
Two-thirds of citizens (66%) are of the opinion that the euro has
(a) been a success so far and (b) will also be a success in the
long term (in 2012, only 49% in both cases). In the eyes of
citizens, the euro has evidently already passed the acid test.
