Our political objective
Transparency means dialogue. As a contact partner for policymakers, authorities and social organisations, we are engaged in close dialogue with various interest groups and actively contribute to the political debate in all countries in which we have business operations. In doing so, we pursue four objectives:
Building a reputation among the political stakeholders and in the societal environment
Coordinating the work of the organisation and participating at the German and EU levels
Monitoring and managing legislation, political developments and issues
Closely cooperating with and supporting the CECONOMY companies in all countries
At the same time, through our engagement in the political sphere, we give CECONOMY as well as its subsidiaries and participating interests a voice – thereby supporting our operational business through robust networks.
