Fitch Agency indicates that France's sovereign debt situation will not improve before the 2027 elections, with an expected rise in the fiscal deficit to 5.2% this year, increasing to 5.5% in 2027, and remaining at 5.2% in 2028. It also forecasts that France's debt will reach 122.7% of GDP by 2028, an increase from previous estimates, with warnings that the deficit could rise to 7% by 2030 if current policies persist. Weak economic growth and rising defense spending are contributing to the deterioration of public finances, while political fragmentation hampers the government's ability to implement sustainable reforms. Despite these challenges, France's credit rating remains stable due to a robust banking sector and euro resilience.
