At the end of 2019, the prices for the assets of German private households rose by +7.6% in comparison to the end of the previous year. The reasons for this development are both the sharp rise in prices for business wealth and the relentlessly rising prices on the real estate market. Households without real estate and without business wealth, as is particularly the case among young, poor or old households, are suffering from the asset price inflation.
