In the last twenty years, the French banking system has
shifted from heavy State involvement to nearly complete
privatization.
The rationalization of banking structures has created
a much more liberalized environment, in which many more
credit institutions are now operating. It has also resulted
in diversification of business and the opening up of the
French banking sector to international markets in an increasingly
competitive environment.
Foreign banks hold a significant market share in some
business sectors, and foreign ownership of French credit
institutions has become widespread.
