Financing the future — sustainably

Energy, infrastructure, mobility: We are shaping a green and digital future

Economic success requires a reliable energy supply, stable infrastructure and modern means of transport. In order to achieve the goal of climate neutrality at the same time, investments in renewable energies and in the mobility transition are necessary. In addition, accelerating digital transformation is essential to maintain and expand material and intangible wealth in Germany, Europe and worldwide.

With our financing, we enable the international exchange of goods and data and contribute to greater sustainability in the transport of people and goods. We offer tailor-made financing solutions for innovative energy projects and investments in technologies of the future. In this way we contribute to the green and digital transformation of the economy and society.

We strengthen economic output at home and abroad

Germany and Europe largely owe their growth and prosperity to the performance of the export industry. We are a financing partner for German and European companies that want to export their products all over the world. With our medium and long-term financing solutions, we contribute to maintaining the competitiveness and internationalisation of German and European export companies.

The high-tech country of Germany is dependent on imports for most of its industrial raw materials. This applies to energy sources as well as special metals, which are essential for innovative industries. We support German and European companies in sustainably meeting their needs. This strengthens the resilience of the economy and secures domestic production and jobs.

We support our customers as a reliable investment partner
