Steuersenkung als Investitionstreiber

Abstract Germany has become a high-tax country for companies over the past 15 years. There is currently a lot of discussion in politics about how the tax burden for companies can be lowered in order to enhance private investments. Compared to challenges in the areas of infrastructure or bureaucracy, the disadvantage of a high tax burden can be easily remedied by political decisions. According to simulations, a tax cut would lead to a noticeable upswing in private investments and could also act as a signal in international location competition that should not be underestimated.
