Moody's France maintains its sovereign debt rating at Aa3 with a negative outlook, citing economic diversification and institutional competence despite political and social tensions. The agency expects the 2027 state budget to pass with a deficit of 5.2% of GDP, slightly below the 5.4% target for 2026 but above the 5% proposal. Key uncertainty remains regarding the feasibility of rapid fiscal consolidation due to fragmented politics and moderate economic growth. The French debt-to-GDP ratio is projected to exceed 120% by 2027, requiring sustained efforts to stabilize public finances.
