Everything here except the policy rate is a euro-area aggregate, not France’s own figure: growth, unemployment and money supply are published for the currency area as a whole, and the country-level numbers are the annual World Bank series above. The policy rate is the exception — it is set once for the whole area, so it is France’s rate too.
