BERLIN (Reuters) – Germany’s economy appears resilient after the first shock following the war in Ukraine, said Ifo economist Klaus Wohlrabe, who added there was no sign of a recession in the first half.
Supply chain problems remain a major problem for industry, with 75% of companies reporting problems, and three out of four retailers want to raise prices, Wohlrabe told Reuters in an interview after the publication of Ifo’s monthly business morale survey.
