Cost of Capital Study 2023

The increasingly frequent succession of crises with corresponding negative economic impacts makes the development of reliable forecasts an increasingly challenging task. The Cost of Capital Study 2023 shows the effects of global shocks and the accompanying interest rate and inflation developments on corporate development and cost of capital.

The key topics:

Growing divergence? Hypotheses on the different development of global economic areas
Inflation unleashed? Central Banks' interaction with capital markets
Navigating increasing uncertainty? Development of market return expectations in turbulent times

The study is published in English.

More than 320 companies from the D-A-CH region provide information on how the increasingly uncertain economic environment is affecting their business models, corporate development and long-term return expectations (cost of capital).
