How this market settles

If the 2027 state budget (loi de finances pour 2027) is enacted in France before Jan 1, 2027, then the market resolves to Yes. “The 2027 budget” means the loi de finances pour 2027, France’s annual State finance law for 2027. Final adoption by Parliament, including a text deemed adopted under Article 49, paragraph 3, of the Constitution, does NOT count until the President promulgates the law, which follows any review by the Constitutional Council. The market resolves to Yes if the promulgated law bears a date of Dec 31, 2026 or earlier, as shown by its publication in the Journal officiel de la République française. A special law (loi spéciale) that only authorizes the collection of existing taxes and borrowing, or any other interim measure of that kind, does not count. The social security financing law (loi de financement de la sécurité sociale) is a separate law and does not count. The 2027 budget put into force by ordinance under Article 47 of the Constitution counts once the ordinance has been signed and published in the Journal officiel. Enactment requires completion of all constitutional and legal requirements for the legislation to become binding law. Standard legislation requiring executive approval: final passage by all required legislative bodies, executive signature OR becoming law despite executive inaction OR successful veto override, and satisfaction of any required waiting periods Legislation not requiring executive approval: final passage and completion of required waiting periods Constitutional amendments: passage with required supermajorities and completion of ratification processes Executive orders: official signature, publication in official government records, and legal effectiveness The following do NOT constitute enactment: Legislative passage without completed executive action Passage by only some required bodies Provisional passage Non-binding resolutions Draft orders Enactment occurs when all requirements are completed, regardless of

What could still go wrong

  • The end date is specified as 2027-01-01T04:59:00Z, which corresponds to December 31, 2026 at 23:59 Paris time (UTC+1 in winter), creating a potential timezone ambiguity if the Journal officiel publication timestamp is interpreted differently
  • No explicit source verification procedure is specified beyond the Journal officiel, though this is standard for French law
  • The ordinance path under Article 47 is included but its precise legal requirements beyond signing and Journal officiel publication are not fully elaborated
