Ifo Institute: 56.2 percent of German companies suffer from the consequences of the corona epidemic
The German economy is suffering significantly from the consequences of the corona epidemic. 56.2 percent of companies are currently experiencing negative effects. This was the result of a recent survey by the Ifo Institute among just under 3,400 companies in industry, trade and service providers. The situation is worst for tour operators and travel agencies, where almost 96 percent are negatively affected. The hospitality industry is also badly affected with 79 percent. Only 2.2 percent of all companies report a positive impact.
In manufacturing, the proportion of companies experiencing the negative effects of the epidemic was 63 percent. 76.4 percent of the companies affected said that business trips were canceled or delayed. The supply of preliminary products or raw materials creates difficulties for 52.0 percent of the companies concerned. Business with foreign subsidiaries is impaired at 46.3 percent, and 44.1 percent feel a decline in demand. Companies in the electrical, mechanical engineering, furniture and chemical industries are most affected.
However, 63 percent of the companies surveyed also suffer in retail. Delays or failure of deliveries in purchasing (65.9 percent of the companies affected) cause the greatest problems, followed by a decline in demand (58.7 percent) and delays or cancellation of business trips (52.3 percent).
50.3 percent of companies are already experiencing negative effects in service companies. The reason is above all a decline in demand (65.5 percent of the companies affected), in particular because trade fairs and congresses were canceled and orders or reservations canceled. There is also a massive decline in tourism.
