Raw materials fund
Ensuring a sustainable supply of raw materials is one of the key foundations for the German economy, the digital transformation and the achievement of climate targets. That is why the German Federal Government has decided to set up a raw materials fund to strengthen the supply of raw materials to German companies as well as increase the resilience of supply chains and of the country's economy as a whole. KfW serves as the central point of contact for the raw materials fund.
The raw materials fund essentially aims to participate in projects both in Germany and abroad that contribute to safeguarding the supply of raw materials and which help to extract, process and recycle critical raw materials. At the same time, the raw materials fund aims to reduce Germany’s dependence on other countries.
A key requirement of the fund is that project participations or agreements with project companies contribute to strengthening the domestic economy through the long-term procurement of critical raw materials, including in processed form, for production sites in Germany or elsewhere in the EU.
