About Marcus
Marcus Hoffmann is a senior economist with 14 years of experience covering Western and Northern European fiscal systems. His research focuses on the intersection of corporate taxation, industrial policy, and macroeconomic competitiveness — particularly the structural pressures facing Germany's export-driven model in a period of energy transition and Chinese industrial competition.
Before joining Eunomist, Marcus was a research fellow at the Ifo Institute for Economic Research in Munich, where he contributed to the institute's annual assessments of German economic competitiveness and co-authored policy briefs on the Gewerbesteuer reform debate. He has also consulted for mid-sized German Mittelstand companies on cross-border expansion economics.
At Eunomist, Marcus covers Germany, Austria, the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, and the Nordic economies. His analysis focuses on fiscal architecture, government debt dynamics, corporate tax systems, and the economics of industrial ecosystems — particularly how Western European regulatory and tax frameworks affect location decisions for internationally mobile businesses.
