Summary sheet
The project concerns the financing of NRW’s expenditure for public-sector research for the period 2004-2005. Investments mainly concern basic and applied research carried out by the five large German research institutions. A smaller portion is earmarked for the support of specialised public research institutes within the Federal State.
By co-financing public R&D investments the project will assist Germany, and by extension the EU, in improving essential research capability. The proposed operation would be fully in line with the Bank’s priority of lending to projects in R&D and innovative downstream investment. As such, the project would qualify under the EU Growth Initiative.
The project complies with relevant EU and national environmental legislation.
The promoter is required to respect national and European legislation applicable to public authorities procurement.
