In 2023, the European Investment Bank Group signed close to €2.4 billion worth of new financing contracts for projects in Belgium. The EIB Group funded some 26 different projects last year, a big increase from 2022, highlighting the importance of tailored financing to support high-impact projects.
The financing for Brussels’ planned north-south metro line is taking concrete shape. The European Investment Bank (EIB) and the Brussels Capital Region have agreed a €475 million loan agreement to upgrade the existing underground tram connection between the Albert and Gare du Nord / Noordstation stops to a fully underground metro (the City’s new metro line 3).
The European Investment Bank (EIB) today launched the sixth edition of its Climate Survey. These are some of the most striking results of this annual survey conducted in August and September 2023. Running since 2018, the EIB Climate Survey offers insights into the climate change-related views of people in major economies around the world, with more than 30 000 respondents in the European Union, the United States, China, India, Japan, the United Kingdom, UAE, Canada and South Korea. The EIB is the lending arm of the European Union and the world’s largest multilateral lender for climate action projects.
