<scp>F</scp>rance and the International Financial Crisis: The Legacy of State‐Led Finance
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Despite the far‐reaching liberalization of theFrench banking system over the past quarter century,French banks suffered far less in the international financial crisis (2007–2009) than banks in theUnitedKingdom andGermany. However, theFrench system also suffered far more—at least in the first stages of the crisis—than the banking systems ofSouthernEurope. By several measures,French banks were world leaders in financial innovation, and theFrench banking system was highly exposed to international market movements. The limited impact of the crisis, however, owed to the specificities ofFrench “market‐based banking.” Deliberate state action over the two decades prior to the crisis created a specific kind of banking system and encouraged forms of financial innovation, the unintentional consequence of which was the limited exposure to the securitization that caused the damage wrought during the financial crisis.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
