After the break-up of the traffic light coalition
Survey on the political situation and its impact on companies and the economy
Following the break-up of the "Ampel" coalition and the prospect of early elections, crucial questions about the political and economic future have arisen. Share your views and perspectives on the challenges and opportunities of the coming period with us and take part in our survey!
The political landscape in Germany is about to change. Following the break-up of the "traffic light" coalition, Chancellor Olaf Scholz (SPD) wants to call a vote of confidence in the Bundestag on January 15, 2025 and then call an early general election at the end of March.
This raises questions that not only affect political stability, but can also have an impact on the economic situation and the development of companies. In times of political uncertainty and economic challenges, we would like to get a picture of how companies and experts assess the future.
With this survey, we would like to find out your opinion on various political issues and their influence on the economic situation. In particular, we are looking at the impact of a possible political realignment on the stability of the economy, confidence in the government and the role of investment in future areas such as education, infrastructure and climate protection.
Your participation in this short survey helps to gain insights into the perspectives of the business world and to understand how political decisions can affect competitiveness, investment readiness and long-term planning. Thank you for your participation!
