Abstract

Politische Bemühungen, Unternehmen zu einem sog. De-Risking in Bezug auf chinesische Zulieferungen zu veranlassen, zeigen bisher nur geringen Erfolg. Diese Studie untersucht auf Basis von Verbands- und Unternehmensinterviews mögliche Gründe für ein ausbleibendes De-Risking, insbesondere bei mittelständischen Unternehmen. Es zeigt sich, dass sich die Unternehmen der Risiken einer Abhängigkeit durchaus bewusst sind, dass Maßnahmen zur Abhängigkeitsreduktion aber an konkreten Hindernissen (z. B. regulatorische Hürden, Kosten) scheitern.
