Contrasting approaches of France and Britain in tax policies and foreign investment

07/10/2012

Higher tax rates in France and Hollande's call for the French to see this as a form of patriotism by contributing to reduce the public debt. Britain's Cameron takes a different approach by reducing taxes. Cameron's remark about a red carpet for foreign investment is taken by Hollande as a form of British humor.

Public spending and job creation in France- the alternate view of central bank chief Christian Noyer

12/10/2011

France's central bank chief provides an alternate view on public spending to create jobs in France. Public spending tends to focus on preserving yesterdays jobs and not as much on jobs for the future.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
