Observations from the Macro economic imbalances
  • The on-going deterioration in the current account and the international investment position showcases a risk for the long-term sustainability of the French growth model. France has witnessed important losses in export market shares over the last few years (-14.0% between 2007 and 2012). Contrary to developments in other deficit countries, limited signs of a durable rebalancing can be seen in France so far.
  • The efforts to improve the non-cost competitiveness of French companies are hampered by their low profitability and increasing indebtedness.
The low profit margins of French companies, which continued to deteriorate in 2012 significantly due to a still increasing tax burden, led them to escalate their indebtedness in order to finance investment. Moreover credit constraints appear moderate at this stage, such a situation may lessen their ability to invest and to effectively engage in export activities.
  • The high general government deficit, jointly with a still rising public debt constitutes a major vulnerability, which calls for further adjustment.
France's government deficit expanded sharply in 2009 as a result of the economic crisis. Since then, fiscal consolidation has been undertaken in order to bring the deficit below 3% of GDP by 2013, a deadline which has been extended to 2015. While risks to the medium-term sustainability appear moderate, the expansion in public debt following the financial crisis means that the economy has become more sensitive to potential adverse economic events.
 Latest Trends
France has the lowest card penetration in Western Europe, with less than one payment card per person in circulation and for this The French government has acquainted legislation obliging organizations to install payment terminals equipped of accepting contactless cards and NFC-based mobile wallets when purchasing new POS terminals.
E-commerce continues to account for the wide majority of online purchases in France. However, m-commerce is gaining ground, with its share of online purchases rapidly developing from 1% in 2010 to 12% in 2014. Payment providers should look to invest in mobile to ensure their long-term relevance.
