    The Landscape for German Corporates

    Michael Schmitz, Liz

    Held in Munich over three days, the 2024 German Corporate Conference engaged nearly 2,000 investors with 67 CEO and CFO fireside chats that highlighted a shifting European market where technology now outweighs banking in size. Despite macroeconomic headwinds from Germany's post-war recession, attendees noted that fiscal stimulus and pandemic containment have positioned the DAX to outperform broader European indices while top firms view new activity restrictions as already priced into Q2 guidance. The event further identified sustainability and decarbonization as dominant long-term investment themes, underscored by positive ESG fund flows that contrasted sharply with outflows in traditional equity sectors.
