Germany’s Council of Economic Experts projects the country’s economy will grow 1.3% in both 2026 and 2027, offering a medium-term outlook that extends well beyond the current forecast horizon. The uniform 1.3% figure for the two years implies steady but modest expansion for Europe’s largest economy rather than an acceleration. The estimate matters because Germany has lagged many euro-area peers in recent years, and the council’s view will feed into budget and policy debates in Berlin. Watch whether the government’s own forecasts and leading indicators move toward or away from the 1.3% path, and whether the projection is revised as trade and industrial conditions evolve.
