Abstract
This paper presents the analysis of the effects of the institutions on the economic growth of France during the period 2014–2017. We chose to study this period due to the reforms which took place from 2014 aiming to improve the productivity and economic growth to preserve its place in the worldwide economy. The data source used was the OECD database, Economic Outlook, which collects information to encourage governments to make decisions on economic and social issues for the future, such as finding stability and promoting responsibility. The analysis was made in two stages, a preliminary review and a trend’s analysis. Variables analyzed were business confidence, labor market, exportation, and public spending. The results obtained show that business confidence in France, backed by the growth of economic investment, has increased significantly in recent years. In addition, it was observed that the labor market had an important growth in employment, and exportation tend to be volatile due to lack of demand strengthening from its business partners.
