Description
The European economy has shown remarkable resilience in the past years, through the COVID pandemic, Russia’s aggression against Ukraine, the resulting energy shock, inflation and rising interest rates, the growing impact of climate change and accelerated digitalisation. The European Investment Bank Group has played an increasingly important role in supporting this resilience. On top of providing counter-cyclical support to investment, the Group has made riskier projects possible and supported technological innovation, the green transition, social and territorial cohesion, European small and medium-sized enterprises and startups. The Bank has also contributed to reinforcing the role of the European Union on the global stage.
The EIB Group 2024-2027 Strategic Roadmap outlines the eight key interrelated priorities and new programmes to contribute to closing Europe’s investment gap, within an ambitious financing scenario. The roadmap provides a clear message about the EIB Group’s commitment to reinforcing its role as the financial arm of the European Union and to supporting the reconstruction of Ukraine, the EU enlargement process and the deepening of partnerships with the Eastern and Southern Neighbourhoods.
