In the run-up to the downgrade, an analyst at Moody’s said that the decision would be based largely on whether the government heeded the Gallois report’s call for a “competitiveness shock” to France’s economy. The downgrade thus suggests that Moody’s considered the government’s response insufficient.
穆迪公司的一位分析师说，降级决定大体上是根据政府是否留意加洛瓦报告对法国经济“竞争力冲击”的呼吁。因此，降级表明穆迪公司认为政府的反应是不充分的。
