ZEW President Clemens Fuest on Ten Hypotheses About the Inequality
Debate:
Claims of increasing inequality are constantly making the headlines.
In response to such claims, many are calling for the "rich" to be
subject to higher levels of taxation and for further development of a
social state. How economic inequalities develop, and the consequences
that this will have for German politics, can be summarised in ten
hypotheses.

Q&A: The Minimum Wage - A Boon or Bane for the German Labour Market?
"The Minimum Wage is no Replacement for Necessary Educational
Policies":
While Germany did not introduce a statutory minimum wage across all
industries until the beginning of 2015, the minimum wage was and
remains a hotly disputed issue. With the minimum wage set to increase
in January 2017, the debate has taken on a new dimension in light of
the refugee crisis. The key question for many is: How does the minimum
wage impact the German economy? In this Q&A session, ZEW labour market
economist Terry Gregory explains that an excessively high minimum wage
can be harmful to the economy. He argues that wage growth should be
achieved first and foremost by a need-oriented education policy.

DIFI Report by ZEW and JLL - Solid Sentiment But Tightened Refinancing
Conditions for Banks:
The German Real Estate Finance Index (DIFI) has increased by 1.9 points
in the first quarter of 2016 to a current reading of 15.0 points. The
index thus continues the upward trend that has started in the previous
quarter. The increase is attributable to a more favourable assessment
regarding the financing situation of commercial real estate in the past
six months. The corresponding balance of positive and negative
assessments has improved by 6.8 points to a current reading of
31.7 points. The forecasts for the coming six months are less
optimistic. On balance, the index has fallen by 2.9 points to a current
reading of -1.7 points. Despite the slightly negative balance, a large
majority of 70.8 per cent of the survey participants still expect
financing conditions to remain consistently positive in the coming six
months. These are the key findings of the DIFI Report, a quarterly
survey on the German market for real estate finance by ZEW in
cooperation with JLL.

ZEW-Erste Group Bank Economic Sentiment Indicator for Central and
Eastern Europe (CEE) - Economic Expectations Improve:
Economic expectations for Central and Eastern Europe including Turkey
(CEE region) have improved in March 2016. In the current survey, the
ZEW-Erste Group Bank Economic Sentiment Indicator for the CEE region
has increased by 14.3 points to a level of 4.7 points. Among the
individual countries, the indicators for Poland (up by 13.1 points) and
Hungary (up by 9.2 points) have seen the largest increases. The
ZEW-Erste Group Bank Economic Sentiment Indicator for Central and
Eastern Europe reflects financial market experts' expectations for the
CEE region on a six-month time horizon. The indicator has been compiled
on a monthly basis together with further financial market data by the
Mannheim Centre for European Economic Research (ZEW) with the support
of Erste Group Bank, Vienna, since 2007.

ZEW-CS Financial Market Test Switzerland - Economic Expectations Back
to Slightly Positive Assessment:
The ZEW-CS-Indicator for the economic sentiment in Switzerland has
risen by 8.4 points in March 2016 to a reading of 2.5 points. Thereby,
the economic expectations reach a slightly positive balance. Still, a
majority of 71.1 per cent of analysts expect economic growth in
Switzerland to remain unchanged. The ZEW-CS Indicator reflects the
expectations of the surveyed financial market experts regarding the
economic development in Switzerland on a six-month time horizon. It is
calculated monthly by the Mannheim Centre for European Economic
Research (ZEW) in cooperation with Credit Suisse (CS), Zurich.

ZEW Indicator of Economic Sentiment - Economic Sentiment Improves
Slightly:
The ZEW Indicator of Economic Sentiment for Germany has slightly
increased in March 2016. The index has improved by 3.3 points compared
to the previous month, now standing at 4.3 points (long-term average:
24.5 points). "The uncertainty associated with the future economic
development of important emerging economies, with the development of
the oil price and with the external value of the euro continues to call
for caution. Apparently, the renewed move of the ECB to considerably
ease its monetary policy has not had a substantial effect on economic
sentiment," says Professor Sascha Steffen, head of the ZEW Research
Department "International Finance and Financial Management".

EU Internal Energy Market - Unilateral Actions Taken in National
Energy Policy Threaten Integration in the European Market:
Unilateral decisions taken by individual national states in already
highly integrated electricity markets have significant financial
impacts on all market participants. This is the finding of a study
carried out by the Mannheim Centre for European Economic Research
(ZEW), which focused on two unilateral energy policies implemented by
Germany. Firstly, the immediate shut-down of five nuclear stations
following the disaster in Fukushima in 2011, and secondly, the
extension of renewable energies on the basis of the Renewable Energy
Act (Erneuerbare-Energien-Gesetz, EEG).

SMEs in Germany Lagging Behind in Terms of Their Use of Digital
Technologies and Services:
Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) have certainly recognised
the importance of digitalisation to the same extent as businesses in
other economic sectors. There are, however, significant discrepancies
in terms of SMEs' use of digital devices, infrastructures and services.
This is the finding of a special assessment conducted by the Mannheim
Centre for European Economic Research (ZEW) in collaboration with TNS
Infratest as part of the DIGITAL Economy 2015 Monitoring Report on
behalf of the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWi).

ZEW/Prognos Survey - Falls in Transport Volumes and Prices in Almost
All Markets:
Expectations for developments in transport markets over the coming
six-month period are unequivocal for both transport volumes and prices.
Experts partially expect to see significant falls. This is the case for
inland freight markets, road, rail and shipping freight, as well as for
air and sea freight. These are the findings of the Prognos/ZEW
Transport Market Barometer (TransportmarktBarometer) for the first
quarter of 2016. In this quarterly survey, Prognos AG, Basel, and the
Mannheim Centre for European Economic Research (ZEW) asks approximately
250 top executives from the transport and loading industry about their
expectations for the development of transport volumes and prices on a
six-month horizon.

Expectations for Chinese Economy Worsen Further:

expectations of international financial market experts regarding
China's macroeconomic development over the coming twelve months, has
reached the lowest value recorded since the survey was begun in
mid-2013.

In 2015, energy supply in the EU has become more secure again, after
2014 had been characterized by uncertainty due to the Ukraine crisis.

In the coming six months, energy prices in Germany will remain stable.
Only in the medium run will wholesale customers have to reckon with
rising prices for electricity, oil, natural gas, and coal. These are
the findings of the ZEW Energy Market Barometer, a biannual survey
carried out by the Mannheim Centre for European Economic Research (ZEW)
amongst approximately 200 energy market experts.
