2024年9月,法国的贸易逆差从8月份向下修正的77亿欧元扩大到83亿欧元,高于65亿欧元缺口的预测。这是自2023年10月以来最大的赤字,出口下降1.4%,至485.9亿欧元,为2022年5月以来的最低水平。主要拖累因素来自工业产品(-0.9%)、运输设备(-7.9%)、天然烃和其他采掘业、电力和废物(-9.3%)以及精炼石油产品和焦炭(-21.3%)的销售。主要地区的出口下降:欧盟(-0.7%)、亚洲(-3.7%)和美洲(-1.9%)。与此同时,由于机械、电气、电子和计算机设备(-4.4%)以及农业、林业、渔业和水产养殖产品(-1.8%)的采购减少,进口额下降了0.3%,至568.5亿欧元。从地区来看,从欧盟进口下降了0.4%,从美洲进口下降了2.5%,从非洲进口大幅下降了15.8%。
The trade gap in France widened to €8.3 billion in September 2024 from a downwardly revised €7.7 billion gap in August and above forecasts of a €6.5 billion shortfall. It is the largest deficit since October 2023, as exports dropped by 1.4% to €48.59 billion, their lowest level since May 2022. The main drag came from sales of industrial products (-0.9%), transport equipment (-7.9%), natural hydrocarbons and other extractive industries, electricity, and waste (-9.3%), as well as refined petroleum products and coke (-21.3%). Exports fell across key regions: the European Union (-0.7%), Asia (-3.7%), and the Americas (-1.9%). Meanwhile, imports declined by 0.3% to €56.85 billion, driven by reduced purchases of mechanical, electrical, electronic, and computer equipment (-4.4%) and agricultural, forestry, fishing, and aquaculture products (-1.8%). Regionally, imports from the EU dropped by 0.4%, from the Americas by 2.5%, and from Africa by a significant 15.8%.
