EUR French Government Budget BalanceFrench Gov Budget Balance Previous -159.6B
- What it is
- A figure showing whether the French central government is running a budget deficit or surplus over the period so far. It is published by France's finance ministry.
- Why it matters
- It gives a view of France's public finances, and France is one of the eurozone's largest economies. Markets usually give it fairly low importance unless worries about debt and deficits are in focus.
- Usual market reaction
- This release often has no clear forecast, so its effect on the euro (EUR) is usually small. A smaller deficit than expected may ease fiscal worries and give the euro slight support, while a larger one may dent confidence a little in the euro and in French bonds.
