Bank of France Predicts Steady Economic Expansion for the First Quarter

The central bank expects the economy to grow by up to 0.3 percent this quarter. Business confidence is rising despite ongoing global trade uncertainties.

The Bank of France released its monthly business sentiment survey on 2026-02-11T19:02:41.000Z, reporting an estimated Q1 GDP growth of 0.2–0.3%. This figure reflects a firmer-than-expected rebound in business activity at the start of the year and signals a pick-up in France’s economic momentum. The assessment for France FRFR suggests that this momentum could affect domestic demand and sectoral output throughout the country.
