About the webinar:
France’s rising debt and political instability have led to its bond yields becoming as high as Greece’s, during its economic crisis, causing concerns about its fiscal sustainability and potential for political paralysis to hinder necessary reforms. Join us to hear about the state of France’s economy and how it may impact your business and the global markets.
