  • France’s 30-year government bond yield climbed above 4.50%, its highest level since 2011, signaling mounting long-horizon risk concerns.
  • Prime Minister François Bayrou is holding party consultations ahead of a September 8 confidence vote that could determine his government’s fate.
  • Credit watchers flagged near-term calendar risks with Fitch due to review France on September 12 and S&P set to follow in November.
