France's 90-day funding more than doubles to €4.1B
90 days to 2026-10-15
France's funding total for the 90 days to 15 October 2026 reached €4.05B, up 2.1x from €1.97B in the prior 90-day window, even as deal count fell from 70 to 54 — pointing to fewer but considerably larger rounds. That increase puts France well ahead of Germany, which raised €1.84B in the same recent window, down from €6.56B previously, and narrows the gap with the UK, Europe's largest market at €10.37B over the period, down from €12.64B. Among the twelve countries tracked, France's €4.05B recent total ranks second behind only the UK, while Germany slips to third. Spain, the next largest, recorded €1.68B in the recent window. France's rise stands out against a broader pattern of declining totals in several major markets, including the UK and Germany, even as deal activity in France itself contracted by 23% compared with the prior period.
