PARIS (Reuters) - French President Francois Hollande's surprise conversion to business-friendly economic reforms 18 months after winning power on a "tax the rich" platform is at risk of running out of steam ahead of elections next year.

France's Socialist leader since 2012 will on Monday flesh out his last major economic plan before those elections, government sources say.
