France
Resilience Index — Country Analysis
Current RI Score
France remains operationally stable with strong core capacity, but policy volatility and social cohesion are the current drag. Monitoring status reflects rising friction cost, not a loss of baseline institutional function.
Dimensional Breakdown
Dimensional scores use the RI 0–10 scale. Trajectory arrows reflect directionality versus the prior update window.
| Dimension | Score (0–10) | Trajectory |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Institutional Resilience | 7.9 | → |
| 2. Policy Volatility | 6.2 | ↓ |
| 3. Economic Shock Absorption | 7.4 | → |
| 4. Social Cohesion | 6.5 | ↓ |
| 5. Information Environment | 8.3 | → |
Primary Drivers
Business-facing stress factors (non-political)
- Contracting friction: higher change-of-law risk in regulated areas; more frequent repricing and renegotiation clauses required.
- Labor continuity risk: higher probability of strikes and service interruptions; add buffer time to critical-path schedules.
- Cost persistence: energy and labor cost rigidity increases sensitivity to demand shocks; stress-test margins at lower volumes.
- Administrative latency: permitting, procurement, and compliance timelines can extend under stress; plan for longer lead times.
- Complexity premium: multi-site operators should expect higher compliance coordination and reporting overhead versus higher-RI peers.
Monitoring status does not imply fragility; it implies rising marginal cost of certainty for investors and operators.
About These Scores
France uses the same five-dimensional RI framework and geometric mean aggregation applied across all countries. Scores are updated monthly on a consistent cadence.
