法国政府将从2月起提高免税Livret A储蓄账户的存款限额，以将资金引导至改造公共建筑以应对气候变化，总理塞巴斯蒂安·勒科尔纽周二表示。

“我们将提高Livret A的上限，我们将在2月进行，届时我们将更新（利率），该利率必将上涨，”勒科尔纽在议会表示。银行、财政部和存款与托管公库将开始谈判，以商定最高上限，该上限可能为2.5万欧元至3万欧元。储户目前可在Livret A账户中存入22950欧元，该账户提供1.7%的免税利率。银行将4000亿欧元存款的60%转交给存款与托管公库，后者再将资金用于社会住房和建设项目。然而，对资金用于其他公共项目的压力正在增大。
"We will increase the limit on the Livret A, we are going to do that in February when we will update the (interest)rate which is bound to increase," Lecornu told parliament Talks will begin with banks, the finance ministry and the Caisse des Depots et Consignations to agree on a maximum cap, which could be a total of €25,000 to €30,000 Savers can currently put €22,950 in Livret A accounts, which offer a tax-free interest rate of 1.7% Banks pass on 60% of the €400 billion in deposits to Caisse des Depots, which in turn uses the funds for social housing and construction projects. However pressure is growing for the funds to be used for other public projects.
