France has since gone on to become one of the power houses of Europe, being a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council, a founding member of the United Nations and a forceful member of the G8. Contents: Economy in France | Prospects in France | France Facts Economy in FranceFrance boast one of the highest number of registered companies, with some 2.5 million registered as at the end of 2006. This is a reflection of the entrepreneurial spirit of the French, which has still flourished against a (now declining) program of government intervention with regards to national industries such as power, water, transport, etc. This has often led to controversy with many of the French Utility companies expanding overseas to the likes of the UK and Spain, while safe in the knowledge that strict government laws prevent French utility companies from moving into foreign hands. Prospects in FranceAfter years of indifference France is firmly positioned at the heart of Europe, involved in the planning and drafting of all major policies and structural changes. While the French economy is one of the most efficient in the world, the actual working population as a percentage of the overall population is lower than average.
