Christopher Porter: "Germany is taking a step out of stagnation"
The new head of the US Chamber of Commerce explains how the German economy can grow sustainably again - and warns of the left's plans for Berlin.
The German government's reform agenda has yet to alleviate concerns about the country's attractiveness as an investment destination. According to a survey by the American Chamber of Commerce (Amcham), nearly 50% of companies expect Germany's appeal to worsen over the next 12 months. Amcham's new Germany head, Christopher Porter, remains optimistic, citing the need for structural, sustainable growth driven by private capital, and praising the planned pension reform.
Despite concerns about political instability and the rise of the AfD, Porter believes Germany's stability and reliability will be preserved.
