German economic associations are warning of increasing corporate relocation due to high costs and bureaucratic hurdles. Dirk Jandura, president of the BGA, notes that the migration of production facilities has begun, primarily affecting energy-intensive sectors like chemistry and machinery. The DIHK calls it a structural crisis, citing declining investments and a lack of competitiveness. Family businesses, represented by Marie-Christine Ostermann, also fear the impact of inaction post-election. The Bitkom urges policy changes to retain companies, emphasizing the need to address high energy prices and improve digital infrastructure.
