The Federal Office of Landesbausparkasses represents the interests of Landesbausparkasses and their 7 million customers towards parliament and government. It is particularly committed to promoting building saving and private wealth formation and pension provision through the self-used property. In addition to the legislative procedures directly affected by it, including the Bausparkasses Act and the promotion of building savings, it accompanies legislation on other areas of housing, tax, financial and economic policy relevant to building saving. This is done in particular through opinions and position papers, but also through personal discussions with the lobby registers law.

Typische Austauschformate sind parlamentarische Frühstücke oder -Abende, zu denen der o. g. Personenkreis eingeladen wird.
