Germany's public financial assets rise to 1,199.1 billion euros
Germany's total public financial assets reached 1,199.1 billion euros at the end of 2025, marking a 5.9 percent increase of 66.8 billion euros compared to the previous year, according to data from the Federal Statistical Office (Destatis).
Federal financial assets grew by 6.4 percent, reaching 457.2 billion euros. This rise was primarily driven by an increase in the federal liquidity reserve and an equity increase in Deutsche Bahn AG.
At the state level, financial assets rose by 8.2 percent to 307.5 billion euros. Bremen recorded the highest growth at 28.0 percent, followed by Saxony-Anhalt at 25.0 percent and Lower Saxony at 21.3 percent. Conversely, North Rhine-Westphalia saw a 6.0 percent decrease, attributed to debt repayment, while Berlin's assets fell by 4.0 percent due to BEN Berlin Energie und Netzholding GmbH no longer being classified within the state sector.
Municipal and communal financial assets increased by 1.9 percent, totaling 252.8 billion euros.
