In 2026 Europe is more than ever a beacon of stability and values in a changing world. With the new global order in the making, our unity is our strength.
The European Investment Bank Group will continue to play a key role in reinforcing our competitiveness, strategic autonomy and security. With projects making a real impact, we're proudly carrying the European flag in every corner of our Union and building new partnerships across the world. We are starting 2026 on a very strong footing, building on the outstanding results of last year, including record financing for security and defence, energy and new technologies.
This year, we will provide another €100 billion for new investments, fully aligned with EU priorities, making sure that innovators and tech champions born in Europe stay and grow in Europe, reinforcing our defence capabilities, delivering homes and supporting vital projects in Ukraine and beyond. Already this week, we announced new financing for grid expansion in Germany and for innovative SMEs in Poland.
Our President also had the great pleasure of meeting Grand Duke Guillaume of Luxembourg, our host country.
