Eine diversifizierte Wirtschaft als Versicherung gegen Krisen

Abstract

Eine starke Spezialisierung auf bestimmte Branchen kann zweifellos wirtschaftliche Vorteile mit sich bringen. Viele Regionen in Deutschland profitieren zum Beispiel von ihrer Einbettung in starke Cluster, z. B. in der Automobilindustrie. Wenn diese Branchen jedoch in Schwierigkeiten geraten, dann können sie ganze Regionen in Schieflage bringen. Eine zu einseitige, auf besonders wachstumsstarke Sektoren ausgerichtete Wirtschaft birgt also Risiken. Eine diversifizierte Wirtschaft kann dagegen wie eine Art Versicherung gegen sektorspezifische Schocks wirken. Dieser Artikel zeigt, dass sich breit aufgestellte Regionen deutlich stabiler entwickeln, obwohl sie kaum langsamer wachsen. Sektorale Diversifikation ermöglicht also besonders vorteilhafte Verhältnisse aus Wachstum und Risiko.
