Where the cat tail biting Berlin/Munich as the German economy in the remainder of the year will develop, according to the ifo-Institut depends on whether the lending in Germany comes back in swing. In the early stages of a recovery, one must avoid that it comes to a credit crunch”, as the ifo economic expert Gernot Nerb. The credit hurdle had been high in the past few months. Without loans, the economy is not running. Therefore has absolute priority”the rehabilitation of the financial sector in the fight against the further downturn, calls Mario Ohoven, President of the Association of SMEs (BVMW).

Specifically, remaining profits may be made tax-free in the company. In addition, access to funding loans must be improved.
