Conseil d'Analyse Économique

The Conseil d'Analyse Économique (CAE, lit. 'Council of Economic Analysis') is an economic advisory body in Paris. It is government-funded and part of the Office of the French Prime Minister. It was established by executive order of 1997/07/22 under newly elected Prime Minister Lionel Jospin, and reorganized by order of 2012/11/05 to refocus its membership criteria on academic excellence.

The CAE commissions reports from its members, which are published and serve both as advice to the government and as contributions to the public debate. It is part of a network of research bodies and institutes coordinated by (and funded through) France Stratégie.

Membership
The CAE has 15 members, typically recognized French economists and occasionally some from outside France, who are not remunerated for their membership. The respective heads of the Direction générale du Trésor and of the Institut national de la statistique et des études économiques are members ex officio.

 * 1997-2001: Pierre-Alain Muet
 * 2001-2002: Jean Pisani-Ferry
 * 2003-2012: Christian de Boissieu
 * 2012-2018: Agnès Bénassy-Quéré
 * 2018-2022: Philippe Martin
 * Since 2022: Camille Landais
