Abstract

La dégradation de la balance commerciale française de plus de 20 milliards d’euros observée entre 2001 et 2004 est liée à hauteur de 4 milliards d’euros à la réduction de l’excédent du tourisme. Parmi les explications possibles de ce repli se trouvent l’appréciation de la devise européenne, le traumatisme du 11 septembre 2001 et une perte d’attractivité du territoire français. Nous montrons à l’aide d’une analyse économétrique portant sur le nombre de touristes entrant et sortant de France, ainsi que leurs dépenses, que les variations du taux de change expliquent plus de 60 % de la dégradation de la balance du tourisme, relativisant ainsi le poids des autres facteurs. Le manque à gagner que l’appréciation de l’euro induit pour l’industrie française du tourisme est de 4,2 milliards d’euros entre 2001 et 2005.
