CAISSE FRANÇAISE DE FINANCEMENT LOCAL
Euro 75,000,000,000 Euro Medium Term Note Programme
for the issue of Obligations Foncières
Due from one month from the date of original issue
Under the Euro Medium Term Note Programme described in this Base Prospectus (the "Programme"), Caisse Française de Financement Local (the "Issuer" or "Caffil"), subject to
compliance with all relevant laws, regulations and directives, may from time to time issue obligations foncières (the "Obligations Foncières"). The aggregate nominal amount of
Obligations Foncières (issued under the Programme) outstanding will not at any time exceed Euro 75,000,000,000 (or the equivalent in other currencies).
This Base Prospectus supersedes and replaces the Base Prospectus dated 26 June 2013 as supplemented and shall be in force for a period of one year as of the date of its approval by the
Autorité des marchés financiers (the "AMF").
Application has been made for approval of this Base Prospectus to the AMF in France in its capacity as competent authority pursuant to Article 212-2 of its Règlement Général which
implements Directive 2003/71/EC of 4 November 2003 on the prospectus to be published when securities are offered to the public or admitted to trading (the "Prospectus Directive").
References in this Base Prospectus to the Prospectus Directive shall include the amendments made by Directive 2010/73/EU to the extent that such amendments have been implemented
in the relevant Member State of the European Economic Area (the "EEA").
Application has been made to Euronext Paris for Obligations Foncières issued under the Programme during a period of 12 months from the date of this Base Prospectus to be listed and
admitted to trading on Euronext Paris. Euronext Paris is a regulated market for the purposes of the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive 2004/39/EC (a "Regulated Market").
Application may also be made to the competent authority of any other Member State of the EEA for Obligations Foncières issued under the Programme to be listed and admitted to
trading on any other Regulated Market in such Member State.
However, Obligations Foncières which are not admitted to trading on a Regulated Market, or which are not offered to the public, in a Member State of the EEA may also be issued
under the Programme and may also be listed on an unregulated market or may not be listed at all. The relevant final terms (the "Final Terms") (forms of which are contained herein) in
respect of the issue of any Obligations Foncières will specify whether or not such Obligations Foncières will be admitted to trading and/or offered to the public and, if so, the relevant
Regulated Market in the EEA and/or the Member State(s) in the EEA where the Obligations Foncières will be offered to the public and will be published, if relevant and if required by
any applicable regulation, on the website of the Regulated Market where the admission to trading is sought.
Obligations Foncières may be issued either in dematerialised form ("Dematerialised Obligations Foncières") or in materialised form ("Materialised Obligations Foncières") as more
fully described herein.
Dematerialised Obligations Foncières will at all times be in book entry form in compliance with Articles L. 211-3 and R. 211-1 of the French Code monétaire et financier (the "French
Monetary and Financial Code"). No physical documents of title will be issued in respect of the Dematerialised Obligations Foncières.
Dematerialised Obligations Foncières may, at the option of the Issuer, be in bearer dematerialised form (au porteur) inscribed as from the issue date in the books of Euroclear France
("Euroclear France") (acting as central depositary) which shall credit the accounts of Account Holders (as defined in "Terms and Conditions of the Obligations Foncières - Form,
Denomination, Title and Redenomination") including Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V. ("Euroclear") and the depositary bank for Clearstream Banking, société anonyme ("Clearstream,
Luxembourg") or in registered dematerialised form (au nominatif) and, in such latter case, at the option of the relevant holder, in either fully registered form (nominatif pur), in which
case they will be inscribed with a registration agent (appointed in the relevant Final Terms) for the Issuer, or in administered registered form (nominatif administré) in which case they
will be inscribed in the accounts of the Account Holders designated by the relevant holders of Obligations Foncières.
Materialised Obligations Foncières will be in bearer materialised form only and may only be issued outside France. A temporary global certificate in bearer form without interest
coupons attached (a "Temporary Global Certificate") will initially be issued in connection with Materialised Obligations Foncières. Such Temporary Global Certificate will be
exchanged for definitive Materialised Obligations Foncières in bearer form with, where applicable, coupons for interest attached on or after a date expected to be on or about the 40th
day after the issue date of the Obligations Foncières (subject to postponement as described in "Temporary Global Certificates issued in respect of Bearer Materialised Obligations
Foncières") upon certification as to non-U.S. beneficial ownership as more fully described herein.
Temporary Global Certificates will (a) in the case of a Tranche (as defined in the section "Summary of the Programme - Method of Issue") intended to be cleared through Euroclear
and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg, be deposited on the issue date with a common depositary on behalf of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg and (b) in the case of a Tranche
intended to be cleared through a clearing system other than or in addition to Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg or delivered outside a clearing system, be deposited as agreed
between the Issuer and the relevant Dealer (as defined below).
It is expected that the Obligations Foncières issued under the Programme will be rated AA+ by Standard & Poor's Rating Services ("S&P") and/or Fitch Ratings ("Fitch"), and/or Aaa
by Moody's Investors Services, Inc. ("Moody's"). The rating (if any) will be specified in the relevant Final Terms. The credit ratings included or referred to in this Base Prospectus or in
any Final Terms have been issued by S&P, Fitch and Moody's, which are established in the European Union and registered under Regulation (EC) No. 1060/2009 on credit ratings
agencies, as amended by Regulation (EU) No. 513/2011 (the "CRA Regulation"), and included in the list of credit rating agencies registered in accordance with the CRA Regulation
published on the European Securities and Markets Authority's website (www.esma.europa.eu/page/List-registered-and-certified-CRAs) as of the date of this Base Prospectus. A rating
is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to suspension, change or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency.
The final terms of the Obligations Foncières will be determined at the time of the offering of each Tranche based on then prevailing market conditions and will be set out in the relevant
Final Terms.
Since 1 January 2013, Caisse Française de Financement Local benefits for all its obligations foncières from the Covered Bond Label granted by the Covered Bond Label Foundation.

long term loans to French local authorities and public health institutions. In this
respect, La Banque Postale, which is a provider of assets to Caffil, became a
leading player in this market in its first year of activity, originating in 2013 EUR 3
Bn in medium to long term loans.
Investment by French local authorities is expected to stay high in absolute terms
in 2014, at EUR 52 Bn per year given the necessary investments required by the
delegation of services from the French state, of which it is estimated that EUR 37
Bn will be self funded. At 0.4% of GDP the amount of debt owed by local
authorities is sustainable over time. The government's planned reduction in state
transfers may have only limited impact on local authorities' investment as they
have the capacity to optimize current expenditures and thus maintain the high
level of net savings, estimated at EUR 35.7 Bn in 2014, that characterizes the
segment.

This market segment has shown strong resilience over the crisis and benefits from
a strong support by European regulators. Overall volume raised on covered bond
market has declined for 2 years due to banks' deleveraging process and decrease
of asset origination across Europe.
