About the survey
In the fall of 2011, the German American Chambers of Commerce (GACCs) in cooperation with the Representative of German Industry and Trade (RGIT), and Roland Berger Strategy Consultants have for the third time surveyed German subsidiaries in the United States to ask for their economic outlook.
The annual German American Business Outlook survey aims to measure the satisfaction of German companies with the United States as an investment location and takes on a different topical angle each year. This year's study addressed the impact of debt crises discussion on both sides of the Atlantic on the German subsidiaries as well as the critical question of how to Secure, Build and Maintain an Strong Workforce. 1,900 firms all around the United States were approached and approximately 10% of senior management responded.
