Counts here are a floor, never a total: they cover the 326 consultation files tracked so far (29,503 submissions, mostly 2025–26), so an organization's real filing history is larger, not smaller.

Who they are

Among the 1205 trade and business associations on this site, they rank #347 by legislative files engaged — a count of participation, not a measure of influence.

What they argued

Acceleration of industrial capacity and decarbonisation in strategic sectors (Industrial Accelerator Act)filed 30 Mar 2026PDFsource

In principle, we support the objective of the IAA. However, there are significant risks in the current set-up: increasing bureaucracy and costs, additional burdens especially for SMEs, higher input prices, and restrictions on global supply chains. Local content requirements can weaken functioning procurement structures and undermine international competitiveness.

Clean corporate vehiclesfiled 5 Sept 2025PDFsource

The Bundesverband Großhandel, Foreign Trade, Services e.V. (BGA) is enclosed with its opinion on the initiative to accelerate the transition to zero-emission corporate fleets. In the BGA’s view, the initiative is in principle a correct step towards achieving the European climate targets. However, the proposed measures cannot be implemented in the given context and should therefore be reviewed and adapted.

Sale and repurchase of CBAM certificatesfiled 31 Jul 2026PDFsource

We support a level playing field and effective measures against carbon leakage. However, the mechanism must not be designed in such a way as to impose a disproportionate burden on small and medium-sized importers, to commit capital and to generate significant additional bureaucracy without creating additional climate benefits.

Sale and repurchase of CBAM certificatesfiled 16 Jul 2026PDFsource

The Federation of German Wholesale, Foreign Trade and Services (BGA) represents companies from the German wholesale, foreign trade and business services sectors. Our members account for a substantial share of Germany's imports and exports and include numerous companies already directly affected by the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), as well as many that will become subject to CBAM as its scope expands.
