KfW Reports Record Funding Despite Profit Decline in 2024

Germany's state-owned development bank disbursed €112.8 billion while using more of its own funds, reaffirming its commitment to future challenges.

  • KfW's net profit fell to €1.4 billion in 2024, down from €1.56 billion in 2023, due to increased reliance on its own funds for financing programs.
  • The bank disbursed a record €112.8 billion in funding last year, slightly surpassing the €111.3 billion distributed in 2023.
  • KfW continues to prioritize domestic and international development, offering low-interest loans to small businesses, homebuilders, and students, as well as supporting global climate and poverty initiatives.
  • The surge in heating subsidy applications linked to Germany's Building Energy Act has contributed significantly to KfW's funding activities.
  • Despite reduced government budget allocations, KfW remains confident in its financial capacity to address future challenges and support Germany's resilience and global impact.
