Welcome to the web pages for private clients

Whether you are looking to invest surplus cash or to accumulate capital – German Government securities are a safe basic building block in any portfolio. By opening a debt register account with the Finance Agency they can be purchased and held in custody simply, conveniently and without charge.

Information about the Finance Agency’s private clients business

The principal activities of the Finance Agency’s private clients business are the sale and custody of German Government securities. Besides ensuring cost-efficient funding for the Federal Government, the focus is naturally also on satisfying the needs of our customers – the purchasers of German Government securities. Among other things, this includes a successive broadening of the existing spectrum of products. For outsiders, the launch of the day bond in July 2008 was probably the most conspicuous sign of the Finance Agency’s evolving business with private clients.

Another function is to make German Government securities more widely known and thus attract broader circles of investors, for instance through the new advertising campaign featuring Günther Schild or the newsletter FORUM: Bundeswertpapiere. We are constantly striving to make further improvements in our offering and customer service. Our staff can already provide a personal service for our clients – on the phone, by mail and at our branch in Frankfurt. The main focus is on informing clients and potential clients, and executing clients’ orders and instructions. That no fees are charged for the purchase and custody of German Government securities if an individual debt register account is maintained with the Finance Agency is something that our clients have meanwhile come to take almost for granted.
