is going through a period of political turbulence. However, at the heart of this agitation, an announcement gives hope to 17 million seniors. In 2025, the latter will see their retirement increase by 400 euros.

The revaluation, far from being anecdotal, occurs in a context of high inflation. It thus brings welcome relief from the rising cost of living.

Up and down for retirees

In recent weeks, retirees have gone through a period of uncertainty, divided between worries and hopes. The draft Finance Law aroused concern by mentioning a six-month postponement for the revaluation of basic pensions. The State intended to postpone this review, traditionally set for January, to July.

Then, the government renounced the postponement, choosing instead an under-indexation of pensions set at 0.8%. But the consequences would have been notable. For a average pension of 1,512 euros net monthlyretirees would have suffered a loss.

The shortfall would amount to 12.10 euros per month. And even with a slight additional compensation for lower pensions, this measure was still perceived as harsh.

An unexpected turning point for retirees

Concern was growing among retirees, who feared repercussions on their quality of life. Faced with these proposals, deemed unfair and poorly adapted to the economic situation, the government received strong criticism. Indeed, the initial proposals are singled out, considered unfair and unsuitable to the economic context.

However, an unexpected turning point occurred recently: the announcement of the censorship of the Barnier government. It has brought welcome relief to many retirees.

Political news has taken a major turn in recent days. Michel Barnier, at the head of the government, saw his mandate interrupted after a vote of censure of deputies. This event, with profound consequences, redefines the current legislative landscape.

Consequently, the calculation of the revaluation of pensions will monitor the evolution of inflation measured between November 2023 and October 2024. According to the latest data from INSEE, this inflation stands at 2.2%. This offers a more advantageous outlook for retirees than the under-indexation initially envisaged by the government.

This news represents a real victory for the 17 million French retirees. Instead of measures considered too restrictive, the latter see their rights reaffirmed and their purchasing power preserved, even in a tense economic context. A welcome relief after months of uncertainty, where many concerns hovered over the future of pensions.

Retirees: the big winners

Retirees finally seem to be doing well in a complex economic climate. With the revaluation planned for January 2025their pensions will benefit from a significant increase. It’s a real breath of fresh air for millions of seniors.

In figures, the average pension in France will increase from 1,512 euros net monthly to around 1,545 euros. This revaluation results in a annual increase of 400 euros on averageenough to relieve many homes.

To better understand the impact, let's take the example of Journal du Net on a retiree receiving 2,000 euros net per month. Thanks to this measure, it will affect 44 euros extra each monthan annual increase of 528 euros.
