Abstract: 
In den vergangenen Jahren hat der Welthandel im Durchschnitt schwächer zugelegt als vor der globalen Finanzkrise. Gleichzeitig haben auch die deutschen Exporte an Fahrt verloren. Die Autoren untersuchen, wie sich diese Entwicklungen auf den deutschen Weltmarktanteil ausgewirkt haben und welche Rolle die regionale Struktur der Exporte dabei spielt. Die europäischen Volkswirtschaften nehmen nach wie vor den Großteil der deutschen Güter ab. Der deutsche Weltmarktanteil wird daher vor allem von der Entwicklung der Marktposition Deutschlands in der EU, aber auch in den USA getrieben.
Abstract (Translated): 
In recent years, German exports have increased at a slower pace than before the global financial crisis. Moreover, the growth contribution of foreign trade was significantly smaller. This article examines how German exports have developed since the turn of the millennium, both globally and in specific regions, and relative to world trade. The results are threefold. A look at the most important trade partners reveals that, firstly, the European economies continue to absorb the largest part of German exports. Asia and the US follow as the largest sales markets outside Europe. Secondly, the German world market share is mainly driven by the development of Germany's market position in the EU and the US; China and the remaining Asian countries play a subordinated role in this respect. Thirdly, a comparison between the growth rates of German exports and world trade is not always useful for statements about the change in the German global market share.
