description Abstract The Economic Stabilisation Fund (ESF) is one of several German state aid instruments set up to combat the economic fallout of COVID-19. The ESF offers a range of instruments from equity to hybrid capital, including silent participation and subordinated loans. In exceptional cases, the ESF may also become a direct shareholder.

Due to its tailor-made stabilisation measures, companies of economic significance were successfully stabilised during the pandemic.
