Balanced distribution of economic development across regions. Balanced income distribution across society. Regulation of the labour market and a costly social system reduce the overall competitiveness of Germany’s economy. The integration and upgrading of the eastern German economy remains a costly long-term problem (annual transfers from the west amount to roughly €100 billion). Political and economic integration of Europe brings opportunities and challenges to the German economy; i.e. with the adoption of the common European currency, Germany no longer has its own currency, and thereby less control over the economy, as the Bundesbank is no longer able to set interest rates.
