️???? Increasing Money with China Stocks: Yield vs. Morale? – Handelsblatt Today

German investors benefit from the economic boom in the authoritarian one-party state. How that can be reconciled with a democratic understanding of values. 00:05:23 Last year, the “country in the middle” was the only major economy in the world to record positive economic growth – despite a global pandemic. More and more German companies are now expanding their China business in order to benefit from the economic boom in East Asia. First and foremost the German car industry: Volkswagen alone now sells around 40 percent of its cars in China. But German investors have also discovered China for themselves and are increasingly investing here: Either through appropriate funds or through European companies with strong China business. Attractive returns on the one hand, critical voices on the other: Questions like: Are China stocks immoral? Can German investors invest their money with a clear conscience in a country where minorities such as the Uyghurs are deported to labor camps? We are discussing that today with Ingo Beyer von Morgenstern, Managing Director of Qilin Capital and Tommy Piemonte from Bank für Kirche und Caritas eG. Both invest in China and explain in today’s program how such investments can be reconciled with their moral compass.
