17.09.2024 DE
German credit institutions’ performance improved significantly in 2023, according to the current issue of the Bundesbank’s Monthly Report. At €48.7 billion, aggregate profit for the financial year before tax increased considerably, up by nearly 80% on the year. All categories of banks posted higher profits for the 2023 financial year than they had done in 2022. This development was driven in large part by the significant increase in net interest income resulting from the Eurosystem’s key interest rate hikes.

Monthly Report: European climate policy has, to date, not caused a demonstrable relocation of production by German enterprises to non-European countries
16.09.2024 DE
To date, European climate policy has not yet led to widespread relocations of energy-intensive production abroad by domestic firms,
the Bundesbank concludes in its latest Monthly Report. In this, the economists examine the impact of the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) on the foreign direct investment decisions taken by German manufacturing sector enterprises. The experts conclude that favourable framework conditions that encourage innovation in low-emissions technologies are needed in order to prevent domestic production from being relocated in the future, too. -

Wer kontrolliert die Banken? Finance Flash – Folge 5
14.04.2025 No English translation available
Banken haben wichtige Funktionen in unserer Wirtschaft: Sie vergeben Kredite, wickeln Überweisungen ab und verwahren die Ersparnisse der Menschen. Was passiert, wenn Banken pleitegehen, wurde während der Finanzkrise deutlich. Umso wichtiger ist es, dass Banken kontrolliert werden, damit sie nicht zu hohe Risiken eingehen. Zusammen mit der Europäischen Zentralbank und der BaFin beaufsichtigt die Deutsche Bundesbank die Banken. Was das bedeutet, erklärt Yannick in der neuen Folge Finance Flash. In der Rubrik „20 Sekunden“ geht es diesmal um den Begriff Eigenkapital und warum das für Banken so wichtig ist. Mehr dazu im Video.

Der Bruttoabsatz am deutschen Rentenmarkt lag im Juli 2024 mit 118,5 Mrd € nur leicht über dem Wert des Vormonats (117,5 Mrd €).
