Germany's Chancellor Merz:

Finally, we are taking advantage of the positive effects of the capital market in Germany, just as many other countries around the world have been doing for a long time. We are at least 30 years too late.

But, ladies and gentlemen, we are now making pensions stable and fair.

Why should only those who can afford to make additional private retirement provisions benefit from the capital market?

We are now enabling all employees to participate in the development of our economy.
