The investment indicator, based on current business assessments by leasing companies jointly surveyed by the Ifo Institute and the German Association of Leasing Companies signals a 3.8% increase in equipment investment (including other assets) in 2015. This increase is expected to continue in the first three quarters of 2016, but at a weaker pace.
