  • 426: French bond spreads: a warning sign for Europe?
    Oct 21 2026
    France has moved back to the centre of investors' attention. Concerns over the
    country's fiscal outlook, rising debt burden and increasingly fragmented political
    landscape have prompted markets to demand a higher premium for holding French
    assets, pushing the spread between French and German government bonds to
    levels not seen since the eurozone sovereign debt crisis.
    In this episode, Amelie Chowna, Head of Fixed Income Strategic Initiatives is joined by Simon Bell, Fund Manager; Marc Rovers, Head of European Credit; and Robert Griffiths, Global Equity Strategist, to discuss why investors are suddenly paying attention to France, whether recent market moves reflect country-specific risks or a broader global bond sell-off, and why equity and credit investors should care about what appears to be a sovereign debt story.
