Mr Werner Hoyer, EIB President.
On April 27th EIB President, Werner Hoyer participated in the European Parliament's annual debate on EIB activity, taking place during a mini-plenary session of the European Parliament in Brussels. The basis for this year's debate was a report on EIB activity in 2014 prepared by Bulgarian Socialist MEP Georgi Pirinski.
The EU bank’s role in implementing the Investment Plan for Europe was highlighted and commended by Commissioner Moscovici. In his presentation, the Commissioner for Economic and Financial Affairs described the Investment Plan for Europe as “more than a signal, it is a driving force. The work being done is very encouraging and the work of the EIB is exemplary.”
