The political crisis in France, with an imminent vote of confidence, is affecting financial markets, especially the banking and construction sectors, causing budgetary uncertainties.

In the context of the political crisis in France, Prime Minister François Bayrou's government is facing a vote of confidence on September 8. A rejection could lead to the government's resignation and the dissolution of the National Assembly, which would delay the drafting of the budget for 2026. Financial markets have reacted negatively, with significant declines in the banking and construction sectors, while internationally oriented companies like LVMH and Sanofi remain stable. This political instability increases economic and social risks, amplifying tensions in society.
