In France, 2014 was marked by weak GDP growth (+ 0.2 % after + 0.7 % in 2013), accompanied by a decline in inflation and a smaller increase in the number of unemployed compensated by unemployment insurance.
In this economic context, which is still deteriorating, the amount provided for social protection benefits, according to the first provisional data, would amount to EUR 688.9 billion in 2014. This would increase by 2.5 %, i.e. a slower pace of growth than in the recent period: average annual developments ranged from + 3.0 % to + 3.3 % between 2010 and 2013.
Only the dynamics of health and maternity benefits (36 % of the total) would be more sustained in 2014 than in 2013. The rate of growth in expenditure on old-age-survival risk (46 % of total social protection benefits) would be lower due to slow inflation and fewer retirements. The slowdown in benefits would also affect the majority of social protection schemes.
