2027 Budget: Sébastien Lecornu promises reduction in exceptional contribution on large businesses
Three weeks before the presentation of the 2027 finance bill, the prime minister has launched a dialogue initiative with business leaders, confirming the maintenance but reduction of the exceptional surcharge imposed on large corporations.

Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu has launched what several observers are calling a "damage control" operation with business leaders as the presentation of the 2027 finance bill approaches, according to Le Monde. He confirmed that the exceptional contribution on large businesses, previously introduced, will not be scrapped but should be reduced.
