The EIB Group delivered a very strong performance in France last year, providing €13 billion in long-term financing to private sector companies of all sizes and to public sector bodies, either directly or via intermediaries. Of this, €10.6 billion came from the European Investment Bank (EIB) and €2.4 billion from the European Investment Fund (EIF), its subsidiary specialising in support for small and medium-sized enterprises and innovation. As in 2024, France was the number one beneficiary of EIB Group financing in 2025.
