Der Deutsche Sparer- German savers and low interest rates of 0.25% in Germany
03/03/2012
Only about 9.4 million Germans own stocks and mutual funds. German savings are much higher than int the U.S.- about 10% compared to 5%. The low interest rates and conservative approach of workers and middle class in avoiding equity investments especially after the 2008-2009 financial crisis means that their savings are falling behind inflation and declining in value. Media reports in Bild and Der Spiegel are critical of this transfer of wealth from workers and the middle class to upper income Germans. Increase in stock and mutual fund investments by Germans are still only about 5%, with a 5% decline in savings deposits, meaning workers and middle class still are risk averse to equities.

Germany and years of underinvestment in infrastructure
06/06/2012
Germany's municipalities have a backlog of infrastructure spending needs of about 100 billion euros, according to KfW bank. Germany spends far less on infrastructure than the U.S., UK, Spain and other countries. Infrastructure spending is less than what is needed to take care of depreciation, much less than what is needed to rebuild it. Schools, bridges, roads have been neglected as Germany has focussed on exports. Infrastructure spending at 39.5 billion euros in 2012 was down by 9.5% from 2011 in inflation adjusted terms for Germany.

Germany’s flagging economy: Build some bridges and roads, Mrs Merkel
Economist 10/17/2014
We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
