Highlights
The financial advice channel in France is one of the smallest in Europe, and lacks both the regulation and the structure of other more developed markets. Around 80% of financial services are provided by banks; making the 'independent' or non-bank sector necessarily marginal.
The concept of a 'financial advisor' in France is more loosely defined than in many European countries, and this ambiguity has made it difficult for financial advisors to establish themselves in the French market.
The historically generous state pension scheme in France combined with a relatively underdeveloped private pension market contributes to a lower demand for financial advice than in countries where the state is less reliable. However, there are growth opportunities within the independent sector, particularly in terms of the smaller competitors.
