France — Government borrowing rate

Primary KPI: one of the key indicators tracked first for this country.Yield at which the market lends to the State, by borrowing horizon: government bonds from 1 to 10 years, depending on the official series available for each country (daily quotes or monthly averages), with the euro-area overnight rate (€STR, ECB) as a reference. The lower it is, the cheaper the debt is to finance.· France — TEC (constant-maturity rate, Banque de France): yield of a theoretical OAT of exactly 1, 5 or 10 years, interpolated daily between the two government bonds closest to that maturity. It is what new State borrowing at that horizon costs at the day's conditions.· 1 day: €STR, the rate at which euro-area banks borrow unsecured overnight (ECB). Not a State borrowing rate, but the benchmark for very short rates.· 1 week, 1 month, 3 and 6 months: not shown. The State issues nothing shorter than four weeks, and no official, up-to-date daily series of BTF (Treasury bill) yields is available as open data: the Banque de France one (3 months) stops in July 2024.· Weekly, monthly, annual: average of the period's daily quotes; the running period is dashed and is never the value shown.· 1 day : BCE — EST.B.EU000A2X2A25.WT (since Oct 1, 2019)· 1 year : Banque de France — FM.D.FR.EUR.FR2.BB.FRMOYTEC1.HSTA (since Nov 3, 2004)· 5 years : Banque de France — FM.D.FR.EUR.FR2.BB.FRMOYTEC5.HSTA (since Nov 3, 2004)· 10 years : Banque de France — FM.D.FR.EUR.FR2.BB.FRMOYTEC10.HSTA (since Nov 3, 2004)

France — Pension spending, COR trajectory (% of GDP)

Spending of all French mandatory pension schemes (incl. FSV, excl. RAFP), % of GDP: observed, then projected in the COR reference scenario (annual report, June 2026). A different scope from the Eurostat definition: not comparable with other countries.· Projections: reference scenario of the COR (Conseil d’orientation des retraites), annual report of June 2026 — central Insee demographic assumptions (fertility 1.45 from 2028, net migration +150,000 a year), hourly labour productivity +0.7 % a year, unemployment 7 % from 2040. It is a scenario, not a forecast: it is sensitive to the productivity, unemployment and net-migration assumptions. The headline is always the last observed year, never a projection.· Scope: all French mandatory pension schemes, including the old-age solidarity fund (FSV), excluding the civil-service supplementary scheme (RAFP). A different scope from Eurostat’s « pension expenditure » (which also counts disability and private schemes): never compare the two figures, nor this card with other countries.· The COR’s 2025 « observed » point comes from the Social Security Accounts Commission forecast (CCSS): it is shown as an estimate (dashed), the headline is the last fully observed year (2024).· Licence : Licence Ouverte / Etalab 2.0 — COR (Insee, Drees, CCSS sources)

France — State budget by mission

Breakdown of the French State general budget by ministerial mission (latest finance law, payment credits). Different concept from « general government spending » (COFOG / Eurostat) which includes social security and local authorities — this is the central State alone (~€594bn in 2026 vs ~€1500bn for general government). Reading keys for the more opaque missions: • Refunds & tax credits (€146bn): technical line — VAT refunds, R&D tax credit (CIR), other tax credits flowing back to taxpayers. Not actual policy spending. State's « real » mission spending ≈ €448bn. • Financial commitments (€60bn): essentially debt servicing (interest payments). • Solidarity (€31bn): RSA, prime d'activité, AAH disability allowance. • Territorial cohesion (€23bn): housing aid (APL) + urban policy. • Police & gendarmerie (€26bn): national police + gendarmerie + civil security. • School education (€90bn): primary + secondary; higher education sits in « Research & higher education ».
