Looking at the diversity of the tertiary sector, we see the vitality of a specific set of services, that of business services. This vast group of heterogeneous activities, which share the common denominator of offering services to companies rather than to households or consumers, represents a particularly dynamic field in the French economy. In the INSEE nomenclature, business services are not explicit, but they correspond broadly to scientific and technical activities and administrative and support services (see Box 2.1).

In its July 2019 note (INSEE 2019b), INSEE does not hesitate to describe business services as the main driver of growth, emphasizing the particular vitality of specialized scientific and technical activities.

This dynamism can be seen from the main economic indicators listed in Box 2.2.
