Description :
In eastern Germany the services first gained importance following unification. So far western Germany has a much more diverse selection of high-grade enterprise-oriented services, which are concentrated in several internationally interlinked centres. In the East the sector of high-ranking establishments (e.g. universities) is less developed. In the new Länder branches of large western firms employing modern forms of enterprise expanded into the east. These arose a diverse range of services, which is however in part polarised and characterised by strong competition. - (HPB)
