KfW Municipal Panel 2017 – Summary

The KfW Municipal Panel 2017 has identified a drop in the observed investment backlog of German municipalities. Investment activity is rising but nearing the limits of capacity in many places. Roads and schools remain the areas with the highest backlog. Nevertheless, the surveyed municipalities look to the future with cautious optimism. Municipalities with weak structures and finances continue to have an investment gap, so regional disparities remain.
