About the InvestEU program

What is InvestEU?

InvestEU is one of the programmes of the next EU budget (2021-2027). It is both a policy instrument and a delivery tool:

as policy instrument, the InvestEU Programme's overall objective is to support the policy objectives of the Union by mobilising public and private investment within the EU;
as delivery tool, the InvestEU Fund aims to implement the EU budget through a budgetary guarantee more efficiently, achieving economies of scale, and increasing the visibility of the EU.

The programme consists of three pillars: the InvestEU Fund, the InvestEU Advisory Hub and the InvestEU Portal. Since the start of 2018, EVPA has been closely following the InvestEU negotiations, focusing on the InvestEU Fund and Advisory Hub.

The InvestEU Fund

Through the InvestEU Fund, the European Commission will provide an EU guarantee of €26.2 billion, divided into four windows which define the policy areas that InvestEU supports:

Sustainable Infrastructure (€9.8 billion);
Research, Innovation and Digitalization (€6.5 billion);
Small and Medium Businesses (€6.9 billion), and
Social Investment and Skills (€2.8 billion).
