On 16 August 2023, Germany’s Federal Cabinet approved a draft (available in German only) of the Financing for the Future Act, which includes significant adjustments to certain VAT exemptions applicable to the financial sector.

If the draft law is adopted, the new rules would come into force on 1 January 2024.
