In the current issue of CHEManager (5/2025), Hermann Schiegg, partner at Santiago Advisors, discusses the investment strategies of chemical companies in light of increasing locational disadvantages in Germany.

The focus is on the results of the latest CHEMonitor, the joint trend barometer published by CHEManager and Santiago Advisors.

The key finding: despite the tense economic situation, many companies are continuing to invest – but increasingly abroad. In the interview, Hermann Schiegg explains the reasons for this development and the strategic options it opens up for chemical companies.

The print edition is now available.

The interview can be accessed online on the CHEManager website and is also available for download as a PDF file below.
