Abstract

[eng] Life Insurance in France : Implications on Financial System and Corporate Governance . For twenty years, French household have more and more in life insurance’s savings. This article deals with the consequences of this phenomenon on structures of the financial system and properties of corporate governance. . JEL classifications : E21, G30 [fre] Depuis près de vingt ans, les ménages consacrent une part croissante de leur patrimoine financier aux différentes formules d’assurance-vie. Cette évolution tient évidemment à la fois aux abondements sur les contrats ouverts, à la capitalisation des intérêts et aux effets de valorisation, mais aussi à une diffusion de plus en plus importante de cet actif au sein de la population. À cet effet de masse global, il faut ajouter une autre évolution, liée à la fois aux innovations financières et aux modifications des conditions de rémunération sur les marchés. Compte tenu des montants en jeu, ce phénomène contribue à remodeler les équilibres financiers français ainsi que la propriété et le gouvernement des entreprises françaises. . Classification JEL : E21, G22, G30
