InvestEU

The European Union programme that promotes strategic investments in competitiveness, innovation and the green transition.

InvestEU is a programme aimed at increasing private investment in the EU with a view to boosting competitiveness and long-term growth.

The Programme consists of three pillars:

  • The InvestEU Fund offering an EU budget guarantee - amounting to approximately 29.1 billion euro - to cover the resources provided by the financial partners. The Fund supports projects that have a high added value and are in line with EU policy objectives, but which would find it difficult to access funding due to their risk profile.
  • The Advisory Hub, which provides assistance and support throughout the investment cycle, facilitating the conception and development of projects and access to finance.
  • The InvestEU Portal, which provides easily accessible data to promote projects that are seeking funding.

The InvestEU Guarantee Fund supports four areas: sustainable infrastructure; research, innovation and digitalisation; SMEs; and social investment and skills. Its €29.1 billion budget is delivered through the European Investment Bank Group (EIB and EIF) and other implementing partners, including CDP and CDP Equity.
