Soon in the livestream: Have we explained Germany's crisis wrongly?

Germany's economy is struggling with weak investments, increasing company insolvencies, and job losses. Despite promises of a "Wirtschaftswende" (economic turnaround) by Chancellor Friedrich Merz a year ago, the government's reform package has been met with criticism. Handelsblatt editor-in-chief Sebastian Matthes and economist Monika Schnitzer will discuss the issue in a livestream on September 30 at 17:30.

Matthes has also written a book, "Inside 2029", which will be released on October 1, and argues that Germany has lost its courage. To celebrate its 80th anniversary, Handelsblatt is giving away 80 copies of the book.
