Veröffentlichung mit Konjunkturprognose für 2025 und 2026 am 21. Mai Der Sachverständigenrat Wirtschaft wird in diesem Jahr zum zweiten Mal ein Frühjahrsgutachten veröffentlichen. Während im vergangenen Jahr mit der Konjunkturprognose im Mai ein Kapitel des Jahresgutachtens publiziert wurde, wird in diesem Jahr das Frühjahrsgutachten umfangreicher ausfallen. Das vertraute Format eines umfassenden Jahresgutachtens im Herbst bleibt jedoch erhalten: Die im Frühjahr vorab veröffentlichten Kapitel werden zusammen mit den neuen Kapiteln im Gesamtband berichtend abgedruckt. |
