The French state intends to raise 270 billion euros of debt on the financial markets in 2023, a record after 260 billion euros in 2021 and 2022, announced Agence France Trésor on Monday on the sidelines of the presentation of the budget of the French government. next year.
In 2023, the State must find 305.5 billion euros, against 306 in 2022. If the figure is stable, France can no longer count on the precautionary cash created in 2020. The fall in the deficit of the State (which is to be reduced from 172.6 in 2022 to 158.5 billion euros in 2023) is also offset by the need to renew previous loans which mature in 2023.
