German economic output probably grew somewhat more slowly in the second quarter than expected, the Bundesbank writes in its latest Monthly Report. According to the Bundesbank, temporary hopes of an end to the weakness in the industrial sector were not realised, as industrial output declined sharply in May. In contrast to this, the recovery in the services sector continued, buoyed in part by private consumption. The inflation rate was somewhat lower again in June. Bundesbank economists believe that economic activity is likely to strengthen somewhat in the third quarter, but could fall a little short of the expectations expressed in the Bundesbank’s June forecast for Germany.

As in 2023, the monetary policy measures of the past few years shaped the Bundesbank’s annual accounts in the 2024 financial year. It recorded an accumulated loss of €19.2 billion for the reporting year, Bundesbank President Joachim Nagel and First Deputy Governor Sabine Mauderer said at the press conference presenting the Bank’s annual accounts. The Bundesbank has a sound balance sheet, Mr Nagel stressed, explaining that the value of its revaluation reserves was many times greater than the current and prospective accumulated losses.
