Germany’s economic institutes to lower 2021 GDP growth forecast to 3.7% – Reuters

Germany’s economic institutes will revise their forecast for 2021 economic growth lower to 3.7% from 4.7% due to the fact that coronavirus-related restrictions remain in place longer than initially expected, Reuters reported on Wednesday, citing two sources.

The joint publication is expected to be released on Thursday, according to Reuters.
