IMF-France : Selected Issues

July 12, 2016--Structural unemployment in France has long been elevated, and appears to have edged up further since the crisis. This reflects both demand and supply factors, including: high labor taxes, wage stickiness, a growing skill gap, hysteresis effects from the crisis years, a lengthy period of elevated economic uncertainty, inactivity traps created by the unemployment and welfare benefit systems, and demographic factors that have pushed up the labor force.

The cyclical recovery is projected to bring down the unemployment rate only slowly, and the NAIRU is estimated to remain above 8 percent over the medium term. We investigate the structural causes of unemployment and potential remedies.

IMF-Italy : Selected Issues

July 11, 2016--Elevated levels of nonperforming loans (NPLs) are weighing on bank profitability in Italy. This paper analyzes the conditions under which Italian banks can earn sufficient profits to grow out of their asset quality problems, re-build capital buffers, and finance the real economy, taking account of continued pressures from high provisioning and operating costs and declining net interest margins from negative policy rates.

A bottom-up analysis of the 15 largest Italian banks suggests that restoring sustainable profitability depends heavily on the growth outlook.
