The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has projected that France will drop out of the world’s top 10 economies by 2029 due to sluggish economic growth. The fund’s latest outlook predicts France’s contribution to global economic growth will decline, with its budget deficit remaining above 4% and public debt exceeding 115% of GDP. In contrast, the UK is expected to become the tenth largest economy while Türkiye is poised to take ninth place.
