Abstract

Die Bundesrepublik Deutschland verschuldet sich, indem sie Staatsanleihen emittiert. Die laufenden Kosten der Bundesschuld bemessen sich nahezu vollständig in Zinszahlungen für umlaufende und neu emittierte Bundeswertpapiere. Im Zuge der europäischen Verschuldungskrise sind die Zinsen für deutsche Staatsanleihen stark gesunken, weil die EZB eine sehr expansive Geldpolitik betrieben hat und Investoren in Deutschland nun einen »sicheren Hafen« sehen. Dies bedeutet ein enormes Einsparungspotenzial für den Bundeshaushalt. Modelliert man die zukünftige Zinslast des Bundes und veranschaulicht die Ersparnis für den Bundeshaushalt durch das gegenwärtig außerordentlich niedrige Zinsniveau, deuten die Ergebnisse auf weiterhin sinkende Zinsausgaben bis zum Jahr 2014 hin.
