Summary

SAI France audited Radio France S.A., a state-owned company active in radio broadcasting and culture (overseeing the Orchestre National de France, the Philharmonic Orchestra). The audit covered the period of 2017-2024 and analyzed the auditee’s overall strategic development, financial situation, human resources management, digitalization processes and property management. SAI gave Radio France's performance a fairly high rating, noting: • audience growth through the development of the company's social networks and the promotion of online events; • efficient use of budgetary resources: growth in online advertising revenue and operating profit, appropriate level of staff payroll; • sound management: appropriate use of resources aligning with the company's goals, and the effectiveness of the board of directors. However, the auditors noted such weaknesses as the company's digital transformation challenges, reduced employee hours and the use of temporary workers, limitations in career opportunities and staff training, and unfinished property development.
