The financial assets of people in Germany have grown significantly in the past year. The nominal financial assets in 2025 compared to the previous year increased by around six percent or almost 600 billion euros and have since amounted to 10.03 trillion euros, the DZ Bank announced based on preliminary calculations. In 2024, private financial assets had increased by 7.5 percent.
The financial assets of private households in Germany have been increasing for years because people in this country save a lot and benefit from rising stock prices. It was said that Germans saved an estimated 10.4 percent of their disposable income. That is 11.2 percent less than the previous year, but more than the long-term pre-Corona average of 10.3 percent.
