As might be expected given the inflationary environment, 2023 will have cost companies more in terms of expense claims. The new Expensya Barometer This is evidenced by a significant increase in the amount spent by employees: 8.75 %. The number of expenses also rose last year, to 5%, as did the average amount spent, which reached 40.61 euros in 2023. An increase of 3.40%.
According to Expensya's analysis of expense reports, transport represents the largest item of expenditure (51.5 %), despite a certain stability compared to the previous financial year (+0.13%). These travel-related expenses are mainly devoted to car travel. Air travel accounted for only 3.53% of the total expense account budget in 2023. It should be noted thatAir France remains the benchmark air carrier, accounting for 40.27% of this expenditure, ahead of easyJet (14.22%) and Transavia (4,23%).
Another finding of the Expensya barometer: the costs associated with training are up sharply (+24.27%). The specialist in expense claims explains this phenomenon in particular by the growing power of artificial intelligence: "The use of artificial intelligence is a key factor in the success of our business.This trend can be explained by the boom in generative AI technologies, which is encouraging companies to invest more in the ongoing training of their employees.".
For Karim Jouini, co-founder of Expensya, " The surge in expense claims in 2023 (+8.751TP3Q) is a warning of a two-speed economy in France. On the one hand, inflation and economic recovery are driving up spending, particularly in transport and in business lunch. On the other hand, companies are investing in developing their employees' skills (+24.27% in training) to remain competitive. Expense management is becoming a crucial issue for organisations, which have to navigate between controlling costs and investing in the future of their employees. ".
