German companies affected by the Russia-Ukraine war will benefit from aid which the government calls a 'protective shield.'

Equity or hybrid capital injections could be an option for particularly relevant companies, the ministries said. ForLindner described the plan as an “economic shock absorber,” adding that “it deals responsibly with taxpayers’ money.”

Peter Adrian, president of the DIHK Chambers of Industry and Commerce, said Friday’s measures went in the right direction but developments related to the war in Ukraine were so dynamic it remained to be seen whether the aid plans would suffice. “Above all, energy prices, which have once again risen significantly due to the war in Ukraine, are putting companies in a threatening cost squeeze,” he said in a statement.

A supplementary budget, which Lindner plans to submit to parliament in the coming weeks to reflect the economic impact of the war in Ukraine, would likely have a volume of at least 24 billion euros, he said on Friday.
