France business confidence exceeds forecasts
The crisis in France is reflected in the rise of the business confidence index to 97 points in July 2026, the highest level in four months, surpassing expectations despite the tough economic conditions resulting from geopolitical tensions and heatwaves. Data shows that French companies' resilience allows them to overcome concerns about supply chain disruptions and rising energy costs, as the manufacturing sector achieved its best performance at 101 points, and the services sector at 98 points, with retail trade improving significantly to 99 points. These results demonstrate the market's ability to adapt to challenges, with companies continuing to achieve growth despite the prevailing economic uncertainty.
