On 8 April, we hosted a webinar in collaboration with Danish Industry on the new German financial package for defence and infrastructure.
Germany is entering a new era of public investment. With one of the largest financial packages in its post-war history, the country is laying the foundation for growth and transformation across key sectors. In March 2025, the German Parliament amended the constitution to relax the strict “debt brake” rules introduced in 2009. This landmark reform enables the creation of a €500 billion investment fund over the next 12 years, targeting infrastructure renewal, the green transition, and digitalization. Notably, €100 billion is earmarked for climate and energy-related projects. The reform also exempts defence and security spending above 1% of GDP from debt limits, enabling significant increases in military investment. This strategic shift aims to strengthen economic resilience, enhance national security, and accelerate Germany’s path to a sustainable future.
The webinar offered participants a concise executive briefing on the scope of the financial package, the implications of the constitutional reform, and—most importantly—the concrete business opportunities it presents for companies in Denmark and beyond.
We thank Danish Industry for the valuable collaboration in making this webinar possible.
