In June 2015, after having diminished for two months in a row, the number of business births rose again (+3.2% for all entreprises, seasonally and working-day adjusted). This rise was due to a rebound in self-managed micro-entrepreneurs’ registrations. Excluding self-managed micro-entrepreneurs, the increase in number of business start-ups was more moderated (+1.9%).

-4.5% year-on-year (quarterly basis)

The raw amount of births added up in the last quarter went down compared to the same quarter one year before (–4.5% for all enterprises and -22.1% for self-managed micro-entrepreneurs alone). The sectors that most contributed1 to that decrease were construction and retail.

-0.9% year-on-year (twelve months basis)

During the last twelve months, the raw number of business start-ups decreased (-0.9% year-on-year). The drop in sole proprietorships births (-2.7%) was partly balanced by the rise in companies set-ups (+3.1%).

Nearly half of business set-ups are self–managed micro-entrepreneurs

In June 2015, 47.6% of business set-ups over the last twelve months were micro–entrepreneurs’ registrations.
