France: INSEE & Banque de France

National French series that the ECB does not publish: house prices, the national CPI, the legal rent index, mortgage rates, household and corporate credit from the Banque de France BSI1 and MIR1 releases, and two Eco3min composites built from them. Sourced from INSEE and the Banque de France, chained across base changes into continuous series.
