Germany's economic recovery is uncertain until 2025 due to unclear financial and geopolitical outlooks, with inflation factors potentially easing later.
BERLIN (Reuters) - Germany can only hope for a tangible economic recovery once there is clarity on the economic, financial and geopolitical outlook, the economy ministry said in its monthly report on Wednesday, after annual data showed a 2024 recession.
Global production of industrial products is modest as is the outlook for German trade, the report warned.
"As the year progresses, however, inflation-dampening factors such as the moderate price trend at upstream economic levels, the after-effects of restrictive monetary policy and lower wage settlements are likely to gain the upper hand," it added.
