Joint Economic Forecast 2/2023: Purchasing power returns ‒ political uncertainty high
According to the Joint Economic Forecast, Germany's gross domestic product declines by 0.6% in 2023. This is a strong downward revision of 0.9 percentage points from the forecast made in spring 2023. "The most important reason for this revision is that industry and private consumption are recovering more slowly than we expected in spring," says Oliver Holtemöller, Vice President and Head of the Macroeconomics Department at the Halle Institute for Economic Research (IWH).

IWH-Flash-Indikator III. und IV. Quartal 2023

IWH-Flash-Indikator,
No. 3,
2023
Abstract
Im zweiten Quartal 2023 stagnierte die Wirtschaftsleistung in Deutschland. Die Konsumausgaben der privaten Haushalte konnten sich nach den deutlichen Rückgängen in den beiden Vorquartalen stabilisieren. Dazu dürfte wohl auch die sich in den vergangenen Monaten abschwächende Inflation beigetragen haben. Die Sorgen der Unternehmen stiegen hingegen weiter deutlich: So setzt das Gemisch aus hohen Energiepreisen, geopolitischen und regulatorischen Risiken, gestiegenen Zinsen und Fachkräftemangel vor allem das Verarbeitende Gewerbe kräftig unter Druck. Die damit verbundenen Anpassungen lassen eine konjunkturelle Besserung erst Ende des Jahres 2023 möglich erscheinen. Das Bruttoinlandsprodukt (BIP) dürfte daher laut IWH-Flash-Indikator im dritten Quartal 2023 um 0,3% sinken. Im vierten Quartal beträgt der Zuwachs dann gemäß Indikator 0,5% (vgl. Abbildung 1).
