A focus of DEG's activities

Promoting Climate Protection

A focus of DEG's activities

Investmens that promote climate protection, use renewable energy and ensure energy-efficient production: an especially relevant subject allover the world, given the huge increase in energy needs and the threat to the environment. In 2008 and 2009 alone, DEG has provided EUR 260 million for, among others, hydro-electric and wind power plants in Africa, Asia and Latin America. DEG plans to expand its involvement in climate protection even further in the upcoming years. more


Accompanying German enterprises

Major target group of DEG

Foreign direct investments are important for German enterprises focusing on new markets in developing and emerging countries. For almost 50 years, one of DEG's main tasks has been to support German companies carrying out their business abroad. For financing their investments in developing countires, DEG contributed a volume of EUR 300 million within the two last financial years. DEG offers German companies the support of investment managers with long-term experience in these countries and this special field of business. more
