The Corona pandemic has increased pre-existing financial pressure on universities further. Universities will face closure as a realistic scenario in the future, and need to compete for research success. Medical faculties are at a particular risk of being the subject of cost-cutting measures. In this challenging environment, using the concept of financial leverage is key for maximising financial possibilities.
