Treasury Minister Eddie Teare says he is not surprised France's sovereign credit status has been downgraded.
On Saturday, international agency Standard and Poor's reduced the rating of nine European countries.
France is now rated as AA+, the same as the Isle of Man.
Mr Teare doesn't believe the change will impact on the Island directly, but it could have other effects within Europe:
Chamber to launch 'Voice of Business' survey
Results will form part of the organisation's election roadmap
Ramsey venue to cease breakfast offering from September
Milntown Estate opening hours to change later this year
Over 120 environmental leaders to meet on Island
Isle of Man to host 25th anniversary Inter-Island Environment Meeting
Phishing warning issued to Isle of Man Etsy sellers
Island’s cyber security experts warn of scam emails targeting local Etsy sellers with fake account alerts
