BERLIN (MNI) – The German Industry Association (BDI) on Tuesday
reaffirmed its forecast for GDP growth of around 1% in Germany this
year.
“Even though the economic development in Germany in the second half
of the year will be somewhat weaker than in the first half-year, the
situation is overall relatively stable,” BDI president Hans-Peter Keitel
said.
First signs of a recovery in the Eurozone are becoming apparent and
the situation on financial markets has calmed somewhat, Keitel reckoned.
