With a GDP deflator at 1.8% and a real growth at 0.6%, nominal growth should be at 2.4% in 2025 in France. It is below the rate on new borrowing (the 10-year bond yield is at 3.2%), increasing the risk of a debt explosion.

5️⃣ La nature des économies compte :
❌ Réduire uniquement la consommation publique nuit à la croissance
❌ Réduire uniquement les transferts augmente les inégalités
July 4, 2025 at 3:03 PM
4️⃣ Une règle budgétaire légale, corrigeant les écarts à la trajectoire cible, serait plus efficace du fait de l’anticipation favorable des agents:
✅ Dette plus faible (baisse de 1,2 point)
✅ Plus de croissance (gain de 0,13 point)
✅ Moins de risques de dérapage
July 4, 2025 at 3:03 PM
2️⃣ Ce plan permettrait de :
✅ Réduire la dette de 10,1 points
❌ Au prix d’une perte annuelle de 0,16 pt de croissance
❌ Et d’une hausse des inégalités

Inflation decreased, especially in France (0.9%). The dollar continues to depreciate, having fallen from 1.04 to 1.15 EUR in a month. This economic environment led the ECB to cut again its rate by 25 bp.

Par exemple, une hausse des cotisations sociales, prévue pour rapporter 5,3 Md€ en 2025, s’accompagnerait de 3,58 Md€ perdus au titre de l’impôt sur revenu, du fait des effets négatifs qu’ont les cotisations sociales sur l’emploi et donc les revenus.
