germany, france and italy account for more than half of the blocks overall economic output, where it's gross domestic product, a germany hold, the largest piece of that pie. how much of the country standing is thinks it's innovativeness over decades, even centuries in particular, and areas like machinery, automobiles and manufacturing. a germany sees its future as more digital and green . but competing globally is difficult, and the higher energy prices of the past year have not helped a new study released by the z. e. w institute now shows that with the us, canada and sweden leaving the list of countries most attractive for business. germany is at 18th or i from on this, i'm joined by jo kramer. he's chief economist, come out spunk in germany. your thanks for joining us. we know that germany has been worried for awhile, about it's attractiveness in a globalized world. this year has been especially difficult, is it just mentioned, especially with the war with the energy prices. a deal like intel is

a big deal in the figurative sense of the word. does it tell us what we need to know about germany's attractiveness? no, i think the same to contact the industry is a special kind of industry. we're a subsidies are i use it, but i think when you would like to learn more about that, just the general attractiveness of germany. then look at all of the other firms. then also look not only at energy issues, what we have been seeing based on indicators over the past 15 years is in general erosion in the quality of the drum, the as an location to do business. this has been, this has to do with the back roads, raise a high call per texas, and rucker see the problems when it comes to digital infrastructure. and these things need to be fixed. alright. those investments that perhaps haven't been made in the past. do you see the state showing out more money for them now in

a sense, jeremy is competing with the deep pockets of the us on the one side, china on the other. can we expect to see more subsidies to encourage businesses as well? uh, we are likely to see more subsidies. uh because there was a change in the policy of the you opinion, but i'm not sure what the subsidies are the right way. also for china all the us because subsidies say it does taught the competition. they all lead to inefficiencies and that we see that you cannot make problems trying to convert it has. in the end, we have seen that that the drum and the economic america, the economic rise of germany after the 2nd floor for all of this, was primarily achieved by not creating favorable conditions for a few or firms. but to create good frame, but conditions for all the firms, with good roads, re weighs good, screw its infrastructure load, texas. you said it had to, and i think this is

a lot of attention to and is doing multiple multiple sort of shows and displays throughout the day. but there is, it was so as you say, a big focus on defends, which has been highlighted by the war and ukraine. we know that right now and here now the passenger air industry is doing better and better getting over that corona . and especially as summer approaches is fair to say the sustainability isn't really the chief concern of many of these businesses right now is they try and meet demand that's one of the big things. the companies are saying that they're having huge amounts of orders, especially the big ones, the boeing's and the ad buses that are trying to bear with more planes, essentially on the list have been saying that they expect a deal was for, for $2100.00 ad croft could be signed during this week, a written, the boy is a power size shape and that is really significant. that's a high number of ad across to be ordered. but that means huge pressure they'll have to deliver. and that's where the industry is really focused in some sense as well.
