Kommentar: 48 Milliarden Euro, die der Krisenstimmung widersprechen
Google, Globalfoundries, Uber und die Vereinigten Arabischen Emirate investieren gewaltige Beträge in Deutschland. Was die internationalen Geldgeber sehen, sehen wir oft selbst nicht mehr.
Investors are not dismissing Germany's position; they are seeing the full picture, contrary to popular belief. Google has invested 5.5 billion euros in a data center in Dietzenbach, Hessia. Globalfoundries has allocated 1.1 billion euros to expand its chip factory in Dresden. Uber plans to invest 2 billion euros in its German operations.
The United Arab Emirates has just announced 40 billion euros in fresh capital. Four billion-dollar investments already, before the "Invest in Germany" conference with international financiers kicks off in October. The real story behind Chancellor Friedrich Merz's recent meeting with nearly 70 leaders of the "Made for Germany" initiative is that the world is not doubting Germany's location.
The investors' cheques remain firmly open, confident that Germany is overcoming the crisis and recognizing the nation's genuine strengths. These include a Triple-A credit rating, a unique scientific hub, high-quality products, the country's mid-sized strong engineering sector, and innovative startups. Once the world recession narrative is dismissed, the chancellor's assertion of Germany as the "best investment location in the world" becomes more understandable.
