showCASE 33 | Germany's housing market – fears and challenges of an emerging bubble
Housing bubbles have resurfaced as a worry for governments worldwide but especially in Europe, where eight countries (Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Sweden, and the United Kingdom) received warnings from the European Systemic Risk Board at the end of 2016.
