#EUBudget for 2021-2027: Commission welcomes member states' position on #InvestEU
The European Commission has welcomed the political agreement among member states on InvestEU, the proposed programme to boost private and public investment in Europe in the next long-term EU budget.
With this agreement, the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission can start the interinstitutional discussion to adopt the programme. InvestEU will make EU funding for investment projects simpler to access and more efficient. It will bring together under one roof and with a single brand 14 EU financial instruments currently available to support investment.
Jobs, Growth, Investment and Competitiveness Vice President Jyrki Katainen said: "InvestEU is our 21st century answer to the EU's investment needs and this agreement by member states is a key step towards the creation of that programme. By triggering at least €650 billion of additional investment in the EU, InvestEU will boost our competitiveness in support of a smarter, circular economy, a more cohesive society and climate neutrality.”
