EIB programme loan to finance investments of eligible mid-caps with a focus on innovative companies in Ireland and the UK
This is an EIB programme loan to finance the investments of eligible mid-caps, with fewer than 3000 employees, from different sectors in Ireland and the UK. An indicative split of EIB financing per country is a 50% share for Ireland and the UK.
The projects to be financed under this programme loan will most likely concern investments that are expected to be carried out in existing facilities without changing their already authorised scope and would therefore not require an environmental impact assessment (EIA) under Directive 2011/92/EU. However, for each sub-operation under this programme loan the Bank's services will review during the project appraisal whether any of the concerned projects could fall under the EIA Directive, as well as any other environmental legislation, and will ensure that those investments are implemented in compliance with EU legislation.
The promoters of the projects to be financed under this programme loan will be private companies not operating in the utilities sector and not having the status of a contracting entity, thus not subject to EU rules on public procurement.
Disclaimer
Before financing approval by the Board of Directors, and before loan signature, projects are under appraisal and negotiation. The information and data provided on this page are therefore indicative.
