As promised, the outer envelope of the future Jean-Bouin has already – in miniature – the air of Bird's Nest, the Beijing Olympic Stadium built for the 2008 Olympics. The enclosure doors of 20,000 seats, which will house the games of rugby players of Stade French ("exiles" for the moment Charléty) from the 2013-2014 season, were opened Thursday for the first route point site with the Mayor of Paris, Bertrand Delanoe, the club president, Thomas Savare, and most players, curious to get a glimpse of their new lair. Everyone has been noted that the bleachers and steelwork is almost complete, while laying the panels cover the roof and the front is moving fast. Everything should be completed by March 2013.

"With a stage like this, it will be champions of France and Europe," commented Bertrand Delanoe. "This tool can only make us grow economically and sportingly, it will also allow us to more easily attract the best players," has for its part welcomed Thomas Savare.

"A work of art"

Rodrigo Roncero, the mainstay of Argentina, who will retire at the end of the season, it will be "the best rugby stadium in France and perhaps even in Europe." Captain and figurehead of the French stage, Pierre Rabadan is on him "great to have a place where almost everything – weight room, gymnasium, offices, restaurant, etc.. – Will be consolidated. "

Conceived as "a work of art" by the architect Rudy Ricciotti, the reconstruction of Jean-Bouin will cost a whopping 149 million euros. The price – considered exorbitant by the objectors – to equip the Paris team a tool worthy of his ambitions. "The old stadium, built in 1925, no longer met the requirements of comfort and safety: dilapidated changing rooms, lack of functionality of local medical and space news," explains a representative of the City. Public reception, too, was now outdated. "The capacity was 7,705 seats (12,000 counting standing room, Ed) of which only covered 4376, ticket sales and refreshments were in portables, there was no housing for the partners and the track athletics away the audience of players, "says the City. Much inconvenience to join soon be overtaken.

Sad "bonus day". Not sure that traders and bankers Monday through Societe Generale, the light step, the square of Defence. They know the day their individual bonus for 2011. And they know they will not be at the party. Both because the trend since the 2008 crisis is for restraint and because the results of the bank financing and investment fell sharply last year, even swinging into the red in the fourth quarter. Frédéric Oudéa, CEO of the bank, has already warned that the envelopes of traders' bonuses would be halved compared to the previous year.

The ritual of Friday

Same rate at BNP Paribas. Given that less than 2 billion euros in premiums had been paid last year to market operators by French banks, the overall should be around 1 billion. Like other years, French banks have cut more bonuses that JPMorgan and other Goldman Sachs. Employees of BNP Paribas have been their fate on Friday. The French leader always announces bonuses on the eve of the weekend. "It allows teams to take advantage of Saturday and Sunday to celebrate the contrary or to digest the news," suggests a veteran of the bank. Credit Agricole will follow this advice by performing the ritual on Friday.

In this case, at BNP Paribas atmosphere was dark, but not excessive because the teams were prepared for the worst. "There was less of rabies in 2011, tells a room operator markets. Last year, some had returned home just after their announcement. "This year's very bad news for these professionals used to receive a bonus big part of their annual compensation, is the proliferation of" zero bonus. "

With respect to compensation, banks have long been criticized not only the excesses but also having transformed these so-called variable premiums in almost due. Even in failure mode, it was very rare to receive no bonus. This year, according to several sources, the losses in activity rates have resulted in an upsurge of "zero bonus" at BNP Paribas. "This suggests new carts, reflects a trader. When one has no bonus is that generally has three months to prove himself … "

"It may even be less than zero!" Adds another: according to our information, in fact, BNP Paribas has had this year the right to retain the deferred compensation in case of performance-cons. Societe Generale should not escape the same trends. This year the main challenge of the bank is not so much to retain the talents of a successful social in France. Not easy to find 880 volunteers to start when it's so cold outside.

The salary, all countries are not on the same wavelength. The annual survey of international recruitment firm Robert Walters (*) shows the differences. In 2011, it was better to work in Germany or Brazil in the UK.

Germany, China, Brazil, Australia have indeed seen increased hiring and salaries of managers. The United Kingdom registered a decrease in compensation of 10%. In France, the pay increase was zero. The observation conceals extremes.

"In the first quarter, experienced managers have benefited from the carrier dynamics and wage inflation, making up two years of stagnation, and that in all trades and all sectors, says Antoine Morgaut, CEO Continental Europe and Latin America by Robert Walters. September marked the return of uncertainty. Recruitments were maintained in a market where demand frameworks has become structural, but overall the catch was interrupted. "

Premium experts

Only to take their game, the experts benefited from strong market demand shortage. Some, such as actuaries, consolidators, internal auditors, risk managers in banking, compliance officers, … SAP specialists have seen their wages increase to 25%. In middle management growth reached 10% on average. "Every year the valuation of experts working on niche markets is increasing," says Antoine Morgaut.

Meanwhile, salary ranges have tightened over the 10 years of experience and senior management, although with few peaks. A qualified actuary in 2011 (7 to 12 years of experience) for example has won between 75 and 115K € (**), a bank compliance officer (over 12 years experience) € 80 to 150K, a manager program in real estate from 60 to 110K € (6-10 years experience).

In 2012 the uncertainties, companies should be ungenerous earlier this year. Salaries will follow inflation, the bonus will be measured, rarely more than 15%, and very individualized, "because we can not afford to lose excellent employees or pass very good profiles," says Antoine Morgaut. Overall, the variable will range between 5% and 30%.

Results which are crippling the morale of the French managers: 48% now feel a loss of purchasing power. And comparing global employment should not give them a smile. According to a range of functions held by Robert Walters, France is down-banding, just ahead of Spain. The gap with Germany, the Netherlands and Belgium reached 20% to 30%. The DRH China and Australia, the Brazilian financial controllers are placed at the top and widen the gap.

"Sedimentation of frustration is high among French executives. At the slightest tremor positive they monnayeront shortage. The most spoiled in the coming years will undoubtedly experts, "said Antoine Morgaut.

"We can not supply indefinitely a bottomless pit": the confession of the German finance minister, Wolfgang Schäuble, the German radio SWR2, Wednesday, expresses out loud what some whisper softly to the more time passes Bruxelles.Car more Eurogroup is divided over the fate of Greece. And it is to avoid the cacophony that Jean-Claude Juncker has replaced the meeting of finance ministers of the euro area in Brussels by a simple conference call.

The time of the united front of Greece is over. "Confidence is waning," says Jean-Claude Juncker. Germany and Finland have joined the camp of the Netherlands who doubt the ability of Greece to rise. The euro area, said Wolfgang Schäuble, "is better prepared than two years ago" to a default of Greece.

Berlin refers to the firewall in place for six months to avoid contagion of the Greek crisis. The European Rescue Fund (EFSF) was equipped with 500 billion euros, Italy and Spain "have made great progress," says Wolfgang Schäuble, the new EU Treaty will enter into the marble of the dogma budgetary discipline.

Letter of commitment from Samaras and Papandreou

Within the Eurogroup, the balance is now moving in favor of hard-line supporters. But the doves did not give up: "The consequences of bankruptcy would be devastating," warns the Commissioner of the euro, Olli Rehn. France should keep silent, but it is on the same line confirms there be in Brussels. Ditto for the ECB. Portugal, also in support of the EU fears that the fall of Greece does not cause his own.

The division opens the door to all scenarios. One of them is to cut the aid package of 130 billion euros. A portion of at least 30 billion to private creditors would be released to encourage them to implement their agreement in principle to reschedule Greek debt and cash losses. The rest would be postponed, probably after the April elections.

In Athens, the political class realizes the danger of isolation. "We are on the razor's edge", Evangelos Venizelos launched, the Greek Minister of Finance. "Several European countries no longer want us in the euro area and we must fight to prove that we can achieve the objectives and implement the laws passed," he added.

Threats of default, exclusion of the euro area, the parties toe the line. Antonis Samaras, the leader of the Conservative opposition, New Democracy, and George Papandreou, the leader of PASOK, Socialist Party, signed a letter committing their parties to the implementation of austerity measures introduced in Parliament last Sunday. It was one of the conditions imposed by the Eurogroup. But is this enough happen to restore confidence in Europe? Nothing is less certain.

Concerns salon Exchange

Consequence of this pessimism toward the stock market investment (listed shares, mutual funds, options, certificates, warrants), individuals felt it was urgent to wait. Overwhelmingly self (80% fully manage their own portfolio), these investors have mainly invested any additional amount over the last six months (54% of them).

This consolidates its international stature when some surveys point out that the French consider that Francois Hollande might as well as the current host of the Elysee in international summits.

Of course, despite the best efforts of Sarkozy, Europe is found in Cannes in the position of poor student he wanted to avoid at all costs. But somehow, he still hopes to appear as the last dam before the flood of French turf. "What will tell the left Mélenchon Montebourg and Greek on the referendum? Will they hoped that the Greeks reject the agreement? "Asks one who sees Sarkozy already torn the left of the line to take.
