“We are a leader in Europe in everything related to foreign investment. (…) Our structural reforms are also bearing fruit,” French President Emmanuel Macron told the opening session of the Choose France video-conference meeting on Monday which brought together 100 CEOs of major foreign groups, adding that “the corporate tax will be reduced to 25%.”
“We are not going to abandon our position on wealth tax and we will lower taxes on production by around €10 billion per year, which is unprecedented,” the president told companies such as Nestlé, Siemens, Ericsson, Snapchat, Solvay, and Accenture.
Economy Minister Bruno Le Maire and Minister Delegate for Foreign Trade and Economic Attractiveness Frank Riester, were also present.
